If you were grading her on a curve that also includes a tennis ball, an avocado, and that lady who showed up for the Couric interview, you'd have to say she aced it. OK, base, consider yourselves re-energized.
Mickeleh's Take: As for the rest of us, we're still scared shitless about what the Republicans have done to our economy, our national honor, our prestige in the world, and our constitution. We didn't find any substantive answers in Palin's presentation. Instead we found a rote recitation of discredited Republican talking points. We're ready to move on.

I suppose she's a type of woman I don't see much of anymore; they don't age well. I used to see them around Phoenix Country Club when I was a tennis mom, but they are pretty much all wizened alcoholics now.
I think she's not a leader, just a soccer mom. I "like" her; I don't trust her with my life. I'm not sure I would even have coffee with her, given my current time constraints.
More and more Palin reminds me of Bush when he first caught the national eye before 2000. We don't need intelligence in a leader anymore, or at least that is what many think, as long as they can play the game. She proved last night that with prep she can play the game. But I keep coming back to Bush, (and also what might have been had not George Allen maccaa'ed his way out.) Biden's Past is Prologue comment was the most searing moment of the debate in my considered opinion.
