Joe Biden

Biden was the only one who knew anything about foreign policy, no surprise.

    Sarah Palin is dangerous, she said," I will not listen to the media and I want more power then Dick Chaney".

      On the issues, because she had to defind Sarah Palin

      Palin sounded like she was reciting what she had memorized. She did not answer a lot of the direct questions..but just spit out whatever.

      Sarah tried to warm people over with cute comments, but Biden supported his viewpoints with good facts and policies. That's what we need.

        Palin showed that she can't talk for herself. The debate looked like a spelling bee. Biden had more of a grasp of what is important for us

        Palin did not answer many of the questions, and at times appeared to be reciting a script, while Biden gave us what we need- substance.

        Palin was repeating like a parrot all she has memorized in 5 weeks. She wants more power to VP! Like Cheney. Biden knows his stuff.

        Palin's answers were canned, and had no depth. Just a rehash of talking points mostly. Biden spoke well to the issues of the middle class.

        If all she was going to do was answer "Energy" to every question, why bother. Just because she didn't fall face first does not make a win.

        Being a soccer mom does not qualify you to be VP Sarah. Poor McCain, how sad that he's come to this just to "win".

        Gov. Palin had a lot questions put to her. She answered... One of them?

        Palin has style, but what she said didn't add up, like her persistent reference to McCain as a maverick and his middle class tax cuts.

        Joe Biden had a greater demand of the facts hands down and Sarah Palin didn't answer all the questions.

        Sarah Palin did better than I expected...but my expectations were really low. Biden did VERY well and will serve us well starting on 1/20/0

        All Sarah did was regurgitate what her handlers told her, and she did not answer the questions.

        Sarah Palin just read lots of talking points, it wasn't natural. She doesn't know anything. She doesn't answer questions.
