Short version: although she sounded better than in the Couric interview, it was still clear that Sarah Palin didn;t really understand the implications of her memorized taking points, or have any abilities to discuss the policies behind the platitudes.<BR/><BR/>Karen<BR/><BR/>Rant alert: <BR/>http://outmavarin.blogspot.com/2008/10/looking-for-skeletons-in-candidates.htmlKaren Funk Blocherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16860091802901743222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19022366.post-38390664582451370572008-10-04T16:37:00.000-04:002008-10-04T16:37:00.000-04:00I watched the entire thing. And while she wasn't ...I watched the entire thing. And while she wasn't as abysimal as she's been on the Couric interviews, I thought she was pathetically short on substance. Biden went into some detail as to what their ticket stands for. I thought Palin was vacant. If she didn't have a talking point or buzzword, she didn't have anything. And her tactic...she just won't answer the question. On the sheer fact that she couldn't define her role as vp. Go read the transcript...it's laughable. And when asked what she thought was the worst of Cheney, she says...the duck hunting incident!! Hello.....<BR/><BR/>The woman scares me to death. Maybe she would be able to stumble through a term as vp without permanantly damaging the country. But if she were to become president...who knows who would actually be pulling the strings. Can you see her in a press conference? She can't handle ONE reporter.<BR/><BR/>John McCain needs to have his head examined. He honestly thinks that this woman as vp is what's best for the country? She's not particularly intelligent, she's uninformed, and she's inexperienced on a national scale.

However, I wasn't pleased that, in the end, I felt that Joe Biden seemed quite weak in his support of Barack Obama. I feel Obama is the hope of this nation.Suzanne Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00852489169178668615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19022366.post-42292978305336390442008-10-03T17:07:00.000-04:002008-10-03T17:07:00.000-04:00I could not of added a thing to your commentary. ...I could not of added a thing to your commentary.

I thought she ignored the questioned asked and just tried to get her message across to the American Public, which if we heard it once, we heard it 50 times JM is a maverick and so is she! I am voting for Obama. And I have read the plea to please the take five people with you when you vote and/or persuade five people to go vote.
