Liveblogging Biden vs. Palin - Thread 4
9:17PM
She's unserious and silly.
9:25PM
Palin is participating some other debate in which she's hearing other questions. But talk about a contrast. Biden is a little too laid back, and Palin is a motormouth who doesn't really say anything.
9:39PM
Quite a terrible and ridiculous pivot from clean coal to same-sex marriage.
9:40PM
We're on foreign policy here and this is likely where Palin -- if she's going to choke -- will choke.
9:43PM
The far-right is going to love her performance, even though it's a babbling hodge-podge of platitudes.
9:45PM
Biden's hitting a rhythm here on foreign policy and Pakistan.
9:47PM
NOOKULER!
9:51PM
She just goes off on whatever general topic the question happens to fall under. "Oh, a question about Pakistan! That means foreign policy and nookuler! So here we go on random foreign policy things! Weee!"
9:53PM
Remarkable how she can be so offensively ho-hum about the Bush blunders. These blunders have cost thousands of lives and billions of dollars.
9:56PM
More NOOKULER!
10:05PM
Is anyone with a brain in their head taking her seriously?

In the modern measure of rhetoric where style beats substance, so far, she's AT LEAST tying Biden. He needs to unleash at least one hound. She is not holding back with her condescending snark so he should not hold back a touch of his superior knowledge, experience and debate skills.

I will say though, compared to the interviews, those boys that took her down to Sedona schooled purdy hard, she's doing a bit better than I thought she would.

And now she's contradicting Joe on what the commanding general said.... And when he sets her straight she looks at her notes and has a huge shit-eating grin on her face. What's up with that? Figured out what zinger she's gonna use?

Oooh. Good one Biden...and what do you say to that, Governor?
NEW question! We'll start with you, Governor Palin.
Now...when one side is competent, and the other is a yammering fuckwit, it's tough to make the game look fair.
Ifill played the NO WIN about as well as it could be played.
