I'm not going to belabor what everyone has probably already read about -- and who was telling the truth about this thing or that thing... but I do have to climb up on the soapbox for a little bit.
Biden knows his stuff and it showed. Palin crammed and that showed. There were no moose in the headlights moments, and she managed to put coherent sentences together (at least we didn't hear "I'll know when Putin rears his head because I can see Russia from Alaska!"), but unfortunately quite often she didn't bother answering the question but went off on another tangent. But what the heck was all the winking about and the folksy Joe Six-Pack talk? Was that particularly presidential? And why, oh why, do some Republicans have such trouble pronouncing "nuclear"??
At least she looked Biden in the eye, something McCain could not do with Obama.
Congratulations to Joe Biden, who I thought had a great command of the facts and managed to treat Palin like a worthy adversary even though he could have debated her with half his brain tied behind his back. He will be a great Vice President.
