Sarah Palin, Debate Champ

If McCain/Palin win the next presidential election, it would mean the the election rigging machinery which was used so effectively to steal the 2000 election from Al Gore has been perfected by the Republicans.

Gov Palin is a great debater. Some women who hate the Gov., because they are so jealous of her.

McCain/Palin will WIN in November regardless the polls show.

What is it with McDaddy McCain and ex beauty queen wannabes and dumb barbie dolls? I was kind of wondering if this is the maverick Republican's idea of affirmative action? Speaking of action... well.. I wonder if the McCain campaign is offering any cabinet posts to ex playboy bunnies?

What an entertaining episode of "Gidget Goes to Washington!".

Governor Sarah Palin needs to learn to pronounce "NUCLEAR" (not nukiller) "IRAN" (not Aayran), "IRAQ" (not Aayrak" before she can qualify for a job as a stenographer or a typist or a public relations assistant of just a pretty escort for the next president of the United States.

THE REPLUBLICANS HAVE THE MORE COHERENT TICKET BY FAR...I think their ticket shows more honesty and an actual about-face from Bush-Politics, therefore refreshing...Besides that, Sarah Palin is HOT !!! I am voting McCain and Palin...I hope you are too...MD

Joe Biden is the clear winner of tonight's debate. Sarah Palin, you don't fool me. You're Dubya in a skirt. I'm a well-educated woman who expects a national leader to have a wider vocabulary and a progressive view of the world than Sarah Palin. You did not deliver that -- but you did deliver a lot of slang, and some inappropriate winking on national TV.

This short article has proven to be precient. After a slightly choppy start, Gov. Palin is starting to shine again. She is clearly more effective when she is allowed to speak what's on her mind and heart directly to the American people. She has also proven herself able to stand up to a well-versed politician with a long history in Washington, with no dimming of her brilliance. She may have a little way to go yet, but she has been sorely underestimated in this campaign season.

VP Palin could not answer almost all the questions raised by Kate Couric. Do you think that Kate Couric is stupid? We know the meanings of questions that Couric asked and the type of answers that Palin gave. Palin could not answer the questions at all mark is 0%. Now we'll compare the the level and depth of the questions that the moderator asks and the responses of the both candidates. It will tell us who provides the aubstances and the counter attacks. We are not idiots!!! There is no sexism or racism here- it comes back to the strength of argument, reasoning and the logic, not the gender or race. We know that some idiots (those in fox box - Martha & Hans in particular favour creating an outstanding image for Palin - absolute nonsence!) Ability to answer questions is not one-off event like the debate - it is something that Palin has to face whether she is xx, xo, xxx, xxxo or what ever in her sex chromosomes.

I'm offended that those of us who see that the emperor has no clothes (Palin, and even McCain to some degree) are being accused of being part of the Obama campaign. I find it consistently unbelievable that this woman is still seriously being considered as a viable future president by some. I guess if you can string together a sentence, and have read a book, you are "elitist". Well, my son, who is in grade 2, must be "elitist". I think he knows more about the world around him than this VP candidate. Sad. So very, very sad.

What is happening tonight is not a "debate". They will not even be interacting. And Ifel will probably not even be asking "the followup question" that Palin can never answer. She will ask the usual questions and Palin will have her answers memorized. Unless you ask her to actually think, she does ok. She probably will not be a train wreck tonight - the woman can probably memorize just fine. Incredible that we're even having these discussions about someone who is all flash, no substance.

Voting for someone just because she's a woman is plain stupid and an insult to me and other women. The reason ditzes love her is that she's so much like them a pretty face and no brains. She fiascoed at the UN, with Katie Couric. McCain used poor judgement putting country last and winning the White House first.

What happens when she has to deal with world leaders? We are the laughing stock of the world.

This ex Republican is voting Obama.

Oh no it ain't babe...liberal, liberal.
Right on, Mariann. Go Sarah, this female is on your side..all the way!!!!

There is no way to know if the bloggers of this post are really women but, good job slamming Palin. Keep putting her down and maybe you will get a nice little pat on the head by the patriarchy. But that is all you will get.

Hillary Clinton and Sarah Palin are getting the same reaction that the suffragettes received. If we don't stand together and vote for a woman, we will never have to option of having our choice of woman candidates. Or maybe you "ladies" of this blog don't want woman in power at all.

I hope at the debate, there are questions asked about how to best govern instead of all of these senate/lawyer questions. I have great confidence in Palin's ability to govern. She has shown that she will fight for the people unlike Obama who has never made a "change" in his life. He can promise the world but he can not deliver.

I am a female, ex-democrat who is voting McCain/Palin

Debates are what Sarah Palin is good at. She might not be very good at giving interviews but, if you've seen the debates that she wss in when she was running for governor, you know that debates are where she shines. She is very good at debating. Joe Biden had better be ready!

Sarah Palin is going to surprise everyone tonight, especially those who are under estimating her and think she's not very bright! Joe Biden especially should not under estimate her! If he does it will be at his own peril! He had better be ready for battle because, make no mistake about it, she will be!

Palin should be able to answer the questions regardless of the person asking the questions! Unless she is stupid!

Obama faced Fox's Bill Oriely

So what if she is black ? Can only Blacks interview Blacks ? And White interview whites ? Its a VP debate they are both white the interviewer is black!

Its just skin color babe!

I hope voters gave Palin a chance to learn on-the-job training after McCain wins, the same way Obama supporters want for their man.

McCain's voting record from Veterans for Common Sense.

I believe the reason they picked Gwen is because her book will be out on Obama and since she is a solid pro-obama supporter it probably was a setup for the purpose of Palin and no doubt to make sure she can't answer the questions. Another problem is she is black and Obama is half black. But Palin said she is not concerned about Gwen. Obama might have to worry about Biden and his mouth.
