I think Biden did a better job of connecting McCain to Bush than Obama did. Palin got in a couple of zingers. There was the typical political posturing (lying and exaggerating) by both of them. All in all, they seemed like two nice people who were trying to respect their opponents.

Palin needs someone to point out to her that the U.S. doesn't need a down-home, aw shucks soccer mom. If she's shrewd enough to go from mayor of a small town to governor, she's certainly a lot shrewder than she's showing. We need to see her srtengths, not her cuteness.

It really is hard to pick on Biden. He has the age and experience and the savvy needed to show his best side. He can be dull and long-winded, but he is a politician, albeit one of the nicer ones.

It is strange to think that regardless of who is elected to be president, our vice president will be the poorest we've ever had.

At this point, I think I'd rather have Biden for prez and Palin for vp (given our choices) than the two running for that office.

There, I think that covers my opinion of the VP debate and more or less what I feel about these two. (YAWN probably sums it up best.)
