I agree that she did a very good job and I think the consensus will be that she "won" the debate for whatever that is really worth. I think that expectations were set so low based on the previous interviews that anything she did to exceed them gives the appearance of winning.

Where I think she stood out in particular was her ability to connect with people and that she talks like the rest of us. Biden has a lot more experience and has command of a lot of facts but at the end of the day he doesn't make the connection. Having said that, I only found myself screaming at the TV to say this or that one time. With Bush it seemed like I was doing it every other question.

One question, did it seem like Ifill (who I think did a credible job.....primarly because of the microscrope she is under with her book) gave Biden the last word many more times than Palin and she cut Palin off a couple of times and never cut Biden off. One thing for sure is Biden LIED multiple times and I can only hope that he gets called on it. For example, Obama absolutely said he would sit down with Achmidinawackjob with preconditions. Biden lied, lied, lied about that and he should not get away with it.
