VP debate

Mike McCurry, former press secretary for Bill Clinton, put it this way, "Biden won more points, but Palin probably won more hearts."

I agree. This is the same problem the Democrats have had in 2000 and 2004. They're not talking to the people.

Sarah Palin looked into the camera, smiled, winked, said absolutely nothing, and gosh darnit, people liked her.

Joe Biden spoke with experience, had his facts, and even choked up when he talked about his family, but he wasn't accessible. Unfortunately, accessibility matters to the general public.

Let me be clear, Joe Biden won the debate. But Sarah Palin also won. People are talking about how she did better than expected, how she held her own, and how she sounded better than she did in the Katie Couric interviews - that's a win after the lowered expectations.

On a side note, I loved Joe Biden's anti-maverick rant!
