This poll - “warm” ? “mean”? is so utterly stupid.

More of the same from her, Biden was an intelligent, articlulate gentleman with an obvious passion for the middle class.
Palin won by a landslide. She is a real, down to earth person who connects with most people in Missouri. She showed Biden and the rest of the world she is qualified to be President, much more so than O’Bama. O’Bama and Biden might as well write off Missouri and spend their money and effort in someother swing state.
she just repeated talking points, way rehearsed, she did horrible!
Biden simply could not have done any better at this debate. Palin did about as well as she was capable of, but that just isn’t saying much. Biden was the clear winner, and he nailed her on every false thing she said. What an idiot she was to criticize Obama’s voting record in cases where McCain voted the same way. Is she that coached on the talking points that she doesn’t even bother to look at their voting records in order to make an informed statement? She didn’t do as poorly as I had expected, but nonetheless, she is unqualified, and the thought of having her in charge of the country is simply terrifying. I am glad that many conservatives are stepping up for the good of the country and saying that she has no business as VP. Thank you.
O’Bama, He’s been called a lot of things, but never Irish. I agree with the talking points, wish they would have given her a few more about her enegery policy experience.
PALIN!!!!!!!!!! YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!!! I can only assume the level of shock and quiet in the Post newsroom right now. Sarah, America loves you.
I think Palin certainly covered the point spread.
People forget that a sitting president doesn’t need to die in office for the vice-president to take the responsibilities of the presidency. A stroke/heart attck, even a mild one, would put Palin in charge, for as long as it took McCain to recover. There are sooooo many more qualified people. She did better than expected, but I chortled when she said she’d bring some Wassila Main St. values to Washington D.C. if elected. Yeah, right! She simply doesn’t inspire confidence that she could be president if needed.
