Hats off to Sen. Joe Biden, who clearly won last night's debate by clearly articulating the many differences between Obama's plans, and the Bush, Ver. 3.0 we would be stuck with in a McCain/Palin administration. His points about the Obama tax plan, the sucky ideas for health insurance tax changes McCain has in mind (surprise: another gift to big insurance companies!), and the need to withdraw our troops from Iraq were calmly and rationally supported by facts, voting records and reason.
Palin succeeded in the sense that she did not have any more "Katie Couric moments" but that's thanks to the timid tactics employed by moderator Gwen Ifill, who could have followed up by challenging many of the Guv's "answers" as nothing more than rote talking points.
And we learned that Sarah Palin pronounces NUCLEAR "nuke-you-lur", just like our faux-cowboy prez from Connecticut! Gheesh!
Today's laugher (well, besides the pork-loaded Welfare-for-Wall Street bill passed by the House and immediately signed by "W") was Gov. Palin's insistence that she and Todd could turn the "Michigan problem" around for McCain by walkin' aroun' them auto manufacturin' plants and talkin' to the workers, dont'cha know... Thanks, Sarah, but Michigan auto workers heard enough from her crotchety running mate when he told them during the GOP primaries "those jobs you lost to overseas plants, they're gone ... gone for good".

Sarah & The First Dude of Alaska will be here in the Denver area tomorrow for a fundraiser in Centennial. Obama supporters here in Douglas County are rallying around "Women for Change" at Civic Green Park in Highlands Ranch, near the library at 10:00 a.m. My daughter and I will be there. See you there!
Biden Wins, although Sarah avoids train wreck
