I think the lack of comments here also speaks volumes about how blase’ we are about either party right now. Palin was well coached, obviously, but did still fall back into the “gosh-golly” persona that make us wince as we watch our financial markets crumble. Her ‘answers’ to the moderator rarely qualified as an answer to the actual question, but a short speech on the topic that was well rehearsed beforehand. You’ll have chances to view the debate again, I’m sure. Listen for actual answers that don’t involve the word Maverick. There were few.
We need strength and vitality, not an “aw shucks, I’m just good folk” attitude. Remember as you cast your vote, the sure sign of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. Time for a new regime, like it or not.
