SOME THOUGHTS ON THE VP DEBATE

Palin will do fine as a VP. She still has more executive experience than the Democratic Presidential candidate.

If it's change we're looking for, I'd rather try it in small doses. Having Mr. Change as the top dog ain't gonna' cut it. Especially now.

The best question of the night was "what aren't you going to be able to" vis a vis the economic climate. The real answer from the Dems should have been "everything we promised being it's going to cost a trillion dollars."

Palin's folksiness is refreshing. The MSM didn't like Reagan folksiness either. Screw the MSM and the left. Poking fun at a her linguistic style is every bit as arrogant and non-PC as saying "Wow, Colin Powell/Condie Rice speak so well!" Racism is racism no matter who it's perpetrated against.

Biden did okay. Nothing to change any minds, however.

The moderator was fine — even and objective; no bias despite the right-wing talk shows assertions. She should have opened the event (if she did, I missed it) noting that she was authoring a book about Obama and "ch-ch-changes." Not doing so is not conducive to eliminating the right's blackhelicopteritis.

Someday, I'd love to see a politician in a "real" (i.e., academic-style) debate format. Unfortunately, that requires one answer questions pointedly.
