Excellant response.
I feel Palin won the debate. I did feel she was a tad to "chummy" with her "Joe six-pack" comments here and there. It is interesting how Biden told bald faced lies and seemingly got away with it.

I am no fan of McCain. He is a Washington insider and his self described "maverick" title is not very well deserved. I was dead against how he held the hand of Kennedy and Pelosi over several issues that were/are just plain bad for Americans.

I was also very impressed with the moderator of the debate. I was worried that it would be a soft ball fest for Biden but Gwen Ifill was neutral, fair and did a creditable job holding their feet to the fire on several non-answers they gave to some important questions.

oh you got me there! that's why every opportunity is taken to criticize her based on her gender. she's a dumb mom. she's a dumb hockey mom. she's a dumb beauty queen hockey mom. she's a dumb beauty queen hockey mom from alaska, where the hell is alaska!
this goes on and on and on, and has absolutely nothing to do with the issues, only her gender. same thing happened to hillary!!!

For the love off.....

I don't care about the fact that she's a woman the fact that she has NO substance what's so ever is speaking for her all on her own all she does is stand there and smile and read of her prepared cards prepared by the best media teams in the world. And yet women think they should stick with her cause it's an attack on the female gender what the hell.

Shouldn't you be supporting strong intelligent women!!! Not promoting or supporting a woman being used as little more than a puppet.

Condi and Hillary are amazing female politicians... Palin is not..there is plenty of room for her to become though in time but no way should she be the VP at this stage.

There all the interviews to watch of her on Youtube where she's on about going to war with Russia possible in the future, Bombing Pakistan, Iraq was involved in 9/11, war with Iran etc. etc.

Humans and dinosaurs walked the earth as the same time.

On the USA economy; 'greed caused it' well thanks for stating the obvious there, oh and by chance aren't you the VP candidate of the party that where the greedy ones that caused the mess in the first place.. and the person who wants to keep digging up oil.

And who needs polls, she suggested, when there are youth soccer games with parents on the sidelines showing fear about the economy.........So you base how the public feels and what decisions to make by listening to what a few people at a football game say........ So what about the american public that don't go to football who listens to them????

etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. etc.

It's like honestly i would of thought by now you Americans would of had enough of this kind of inept leadership style.

just as a side note, your comment that she believes humans and dinosaurs walked the earth at the same time, was an example of her inepitude, lack of intelligence or what have you. you realize there are plenty of democrats who believe similar topics? i'm sorry but in the USA, people are actually allowed to have differing viewpoints on every subject!!

"Part of what a leader does is to instill confidence, is demonstrate that he or she knows what they're talking about and communicates to people, "if you listen to me and follow what I'm suggesting, we can fix this."

When the stock market crashed, Franklin Roosevelt got on television and didn't just talk about, you know, the princes of greed, he said "look, here's what happened."

When the stock market crashed, Hoover was president, and television was still in the laboratory.

Biden Explains Why We Should Vote for Obama

Democratic vice presidential candidate Joe Biden, campaigning in North Carolina where black votes could help swing the state to the Democrats, said today that electing a black person to the White House would be transformative.

Biden said the policies of running mate Barack Obama make his presidency even more urgent and declared this to be the most important election that any living person has seen in their lifetime. But he particularly singled out the meaning of electing someone who is black.

"That will be a transformative event in American politics and internationally," Biden said. "That all by itself will be significant."

Biden Admits Shrillary Would Have Been a Better Choice for VP

Hillary Clinton is as qualified or more qualified than I am to be vice president of the United States of America. Let's get that straight. She's a truly close personal friend, she is qualified to be president of the United States of America, she's easily qualified to be vice president of the United States of America, and quite frankly, it might have been a better pick than me.

he plagiarized his own biography, his wife and daughter were not killed by a drunk driver, so why did he repeadly state as much?

he flunked a law school class for plagiarizing, claimed he graduated at the top of his class, when his ranking was actually 76 of 85.

Biden: Elect Us and We'll Throw the Previous Administration in Jail

When asked during a campaign event in Deerfield Beach, Florida, whether he would "pursue the violations that have been made against our Constitution by the present administration", Biden answered in the affirmative.

"We will not be stopped from pursuing any criminal offence that's occurred,"

Biden said, adding: "But, you know, there's been an awful lot of unsavoury stuff that's gone on. And the mere fact … that it occurred in a previous administration doesn't mean [a subsequent] Justice Department, if, in fact, there's evidence, shouldn't pursue them. "But I have no evidence of any of that.

No one's talking about pursuing President Bush criminally."

Biden: Let the Terrorist Mullahs Have Nukes

US Senator and vice presidential hopeful Joe Biden reportedly told Israeli officials three years ago that sooner or later they would have to reconcile themselves to the reality of a nuclear-armed Iran.

Israel's Army Radio reported on the remarks, which Biden is said to have made to visiting Israeli officials in his capacity as chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.

According to the report, Biden reaffirmed to the Israelis his rejection of military action against Iran, but also admitted that diplomatic efforts to halt Iran's nuclear program had little or no chance of success. In essence, Biden resigned himself to the idea of a nuclear-armed Iran and told the Israelis that they, too, would have to accept that outcome.

Israeli security officials on Monday expressed concern over the remarks and saw them as further evidence that if Biden and his running mate, Senator Barack Obama, win the upcoming US presidential election, Iran's acquisition of nuclear weapons will be a foregone conclusion.

Yes

As i previously said i never really supported neither parties candidates before but clearly if the crunch comes to the crunch and you's have to pick.

I and many others around the world who are affected by the USA's decisions would like the American people to pick someone who would talk to other countries before claiming amongst other excuses God tells them they should attack wherever.

Obama seems the only character who is willingly to do this instead of going crazy. Despite his gaping flaws and Bidens flaws.

what people around the world? and do you think people around the world should dictate the policies of your country?

alot of americans don't agree with spreading democracy by force. we don't agree with the new world order concept, and we don't agree with dominionism. and we also don't believe in full out socialism or communism. we just want our country back and our infrastructure rebuilt and our corporations returned to our shores. we want the gov to stop taxing the hell out of our businesses and forcing them offshore to use slave labor in other countries.

we want our politics and our politicians to grow nerve endings.

talk to the hand buddy.
you're insulting my gender

I have been a long time reader of the ATS forum's and never felt a need to post, but the ridiculous statement above prompted me. As a female I don't feel the post that 'undo' was referring to was insulting at all.

I am not a fan of Biden, he doesn't impress me in the slightest. But Palin is embarrassing to me as a woman. In my opinion she was completely scripted and continually changed the subject when she didn't know how to answer a question.

And 'Gosh-darn it' she was ridiculous. I would like someone who's a little more professional when speaking for me, rather than someone who I think would relate better with the average american.

here teleprompter was off at the convention, and she was great. obama cannot even attend a rodeo without one...

[T]he Illinois senator used a teleprompter at both his Colorado events Monday — making for a particularly peculiar scene in Pueblo, where the prompter was set up in the middle of what is normally a rodeo ring.

yes, puppets are routinely handed towns and states to run... not.

There all the interviews to watch of her on Youtube where she's on about going to war with Russia possible in the future, Bombing Pakistan, Iraq was involved in 9/11, war with Iran etc. etc.

there are bad people who want to do us harm. you can pretend that the world is a big benneton advert, luckily people like sarah are not so deluded.

Humans and dinosaurs walked the earth as the same time.

when did she say this? cite your source, but that cant be all you have, is it?

On the USA economy; 'greed caused it' well thanks for stating the obvious there, oh and by chance aren't you the VP candidate of the party that where the greedy ones that caused the mess in the first place.. and the person who wants to keep digging up oil.

Bloomberg.com, hardly known for its right-wing point of view, lays out in simple terms what — and who — caused the current financial meltdown:

and you'd prefer that we keep our dependence on foreign oil? yeah, that makes sense...

And who needs polls, she suggested...

polls are routinely exposed as highly inaccurrate, pay attention

etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. etc.

thats really all you had to post... as substantial as you offered so far.

It's like honestly i would of thought by now you Americans would of had enough of this kind of inept leadership style.

proven to be just the opposite, you're as bereft of clue as many of our own citizens.
