Eeekkkkk! I can't watch. Ya'll tell me how it goes.

That's Senator Biden to you Missy.

"Call me Daddy."

That CNN Yellow Independent Line is going up for the Big Guy Joe Biden. YEAH JOE!

This one is showing Men and Women.

Keep telling me what happens please -

Super high Indepenent yellow line for Palin right now...

Blue line's up too for "NEVER AGAIN" will we be taken advantage of...."

She wants to call him Joe like she's his equal. Puh-leeeeze!

Wow, plummet on the "suspend campaign" mention.

user-pic

awesome!

what happens when she says Hockey Mom and Joe Sixpack?

Hey Joe, LOOK AT THE CAMERA!!

I don't have an issue with him not looking at the camera. It kind of freaked me out when Palin did it. I thought she was trying to cast a spell on me or something.

user-pic

Eeeek! She's looking straight at me - better go see a witch doctor because I feel bewitched.

user-pic

He's looking at her - like he should

I agree, her fixation on the camera is unsettling. But Biden should look at it occasionally for emphasis. It was very effective when Obama did it.

user-pic

He's looking at the camera, too - better?

Shit! Biden's first gaffe:

Genocide is on Darfur right now, not Bosnia.

She's making sure to look at him. Won't make the mistake that McCain did.

the fundamentals are strong! you betcha!

Ughh i can barely stand listening, that voice and her stupidity is just to much.

Whyiseverybodytalkingatlightingspeed?!?!

Gov Plain is holding her own so far.

Yup. She came out gates pretty good. A little better than Biden.

Are the podiums...pointed more toward each other than they were last week? Or maybe it just seems that way because these two actually look at each other.

Is she on a debate or a newscast?

user-pic

Close - sportscast. That's her degree. By mail.

Obama voted party line because the GOP plans are all awful and got us into this mess.

I'm not watching. I'm recording it though. I'm going to trust you folks to keep me informed :)

I'm not liking the fact that there's no rebuttal.

Her voice and accent grate on my nerves.

Joe is a little subdued tonight.

I'm sure it's taking all of his strength to do so.

She's doing great delivering lines - but they are all McLame campaign lies.


Repub line UP on gas tank Biden line...

Attack Phil Gramm, I hate that guy!

Palin's doing a pretty good job right now, trying like hell to connect with the soccer moms and Joe 6-packs out there. That is going to be her strategy all night, all the betchas and durn rights trying to weasel her way into the kitchen table. It'll break down, but now it is going well for her.

'Can I call you Joe'? Jeez, that didn't take long. Is it me, or is she classless?

user-pic

Go Joe - he's going for her - YES! He needs to not pull intellectual punches and he's not 0- he said she didn't answer the question/

Alright.

Her cadence!!! OMG!

Can you imagine listening to that cadence for the next four years?! ewww!!

Okay, I've decided to watch with the sound muted. Three things creeping me out though - she's staring directly at the camera, she's trying real hard to look tough, and you can see her pulse beating in her neck.

Go Joe! "She did not answer the question".

user-pic

And then she didn't answer the question, and she's darn proud of it. She was mayor of Wasila on a Hill.

Joe's come back on the taxes was NICEEEEEEEEE!

Whoa not good. Not going to answer the question the moderator wants. Lost points there.

Eek! Palin is hitting the demagog ball out of the park.

OMG! DId she just say, "I'm not going to answer the question..."

Yes, she did. I think we'll see that in a headline somewhere!

user-pic

She's contradicting herself -

What happened? I stepped outside -

My guess as time goes on Biden will heat up and Palin will start to flounder.

Biden scoring big now - fair taxes.

um, she's looking like she's baring her fangs. And did she just call Obama "Barack?" WTF!

Why is Ifill prompting Palin?

user-pic

What happened - she refused to answer - I totally missed it, dammit!

She said, "I'm not going to answer the question you [Biden] or the moderator want me to." Or some drivel like that and went to rebut Biden's rebut of her comments regarding tax increases and votes. I was dumbfounded.

user-pic

Wow.


Yeah, baby. Joe is picking up steam!

Got Joe! Health care details ROCK!

Palin/McCain health care plan - oy

Too much facts;not enough red meat from Biden right now... (re: Health Care)

Bridge to Nowhere!!

Did she just say MULVA?

I agree his message is too complex. Fine for MTP but not for this venue.

hah! Yay Joe!

That is EXACTLY what McCAin does. He tells one thing to one group and another thing to another group.

She's nasty.

She's awful. Total liar.

Biden's message doesn't seem to be resonating. Maybe it's because his argument is negative, ie "we don't, we won't", etc.

Sarah's message is more positive, if utterly false.

user-pic

"How long have I been at this, like five week?"

funny, ain't it

I just pray she continues to ad-lib like that.

Stop arguing over Senate Procedural stuff! Awful!!

This is really weird. Men aren't liking Joe's message, even though it makes sense and is geared towards the middle class.

Guess it's persona.

Sarah is babbling now and the positives are going up.

user-pic

She's looking right at me! She must want me. :P

user-pic

Palin wants to drill her way out her election prospects. Drill, Baby, Drill is possibly an effective campaign strategy but makes a anorexic energy policy, and I don't care if you drill through all the way to China.

With all due respect leszek, she wants ME!

user-pic

"With all due respect I didn't hear a plan." - Biden in response to Palin on the question of Iraq. Nice.

Watch out for the Castro Brothers.

user-pic

That McCain wouldn't want to meet with Zapatero of Spain is probably false. Biden wants to point to McCain's gaffe as indicative of a frail, or rather, not so young mind.
