Biden was great last night, you can clearly tell that he worked hard for this debate. Palin seemed to be reading off cue cards and could only talk about subjects she has crammed for.
Any college educated person with the help of high ranking political aides could get through a debate with charm and folksy b.s., but Biden proved that experience isn't a bad thing. Palin's worst moment for me was when she said, "I've only been doing this for five weeks." I used to say that when I was waiting tables at a restaurant and someone asked about a wine I wasn't sure about. Of course, I was only in charge of their dinner, not the free world.
ZING!!!! And that's why Biden won the debate. He KNOWS policy. All Pathetic Palin could do was quote one or two memorized talking points (I guess her brain couldn't hold more than two) her handlers gave her. But when biden shot her down she was silenced.
Now imagine the McCain campaign trying to make an ad from Palin's performance in the debate.

Wells to Money: I fixed the problem. IE stupidly freaks out if I've got a little too much copy on top of a YouTube embed code.
