Joe Biden lied 14 times during the debate, according to the McCain campaign.
Joe Biden gets the Constitution WRONG.
The New York Daily News says “Palin scores.”
David Brooks of the New York Times called last night The Palin Rebound.
CNN’s Alex Castellanos said, “[W]hen you look at Sarah Palin, you saw America, you saw outsiders, you saw Main Street, not Wall Street. The Republican brand needed to see that tonight and they got it.”
Fred Barnes pinpoints the moment Sarah Palin knew she was winning the debate.
Democratic Strategist Paul Begala said, “Sarah Palin’s strategy was to defend Sarah Palin and repair her damaged image and I think she did pretty good job of that.”
CNBC’s Larry Kudlow said, “I think she’s going to be the clear winner in this, and oddly enough, it’s directly symmetrical to what happened with McCain and Obama. In this case, she held her ground. She was informed and she was strong. … And I’ll tell you what, she made very strong distinctions on energy drilling for lower prices and lower taxes not higher.”
NPR’s Michelle Norris said Paln “delivered a performance that filled in the resume and also helped people perhaps connect to her on a very visceral level.”
From Frank Luntz’s focus group: “I think she just spoke to the people, the American people. She was direct.”
Biden’s Iran Blunder.
Joe Biden, in context, on clean coal: “We’re not supporting ‘clean coal.’ [...] No coal plants here in America. Build them, if they’re going to build them over there make ‘em clean because they’re killing you.”
My friend Rob Willington, the Executive Director of the Massachusetts Republican Party reports on Twitter: “MassGOP is getting bombarded with McCain PALIN yard sign requests after last nights home run performance.”
More as the day rolls on.

So, I might as well chime in - ’cause you know how much time Palin spends checking the opinions of obscure pundits.
So, here it is: My Advice
Don’t listen to anyone’s advice. Which is weird, I know, ’cause I’m asking you to listen to my advice not to listen to anyone else’s advice….but, as has been said, a first rate intellect is the ability to hold equal and opposition ideas and still function. Anyways, don’t listen to them - they are not the people in the hot seat, you are. Trust your instincts, pray for guidance and just have at it.

Nothing like having a debate moderator with no axe to grind, huh?
The moderator of Thursday’s vice-presidential debate is writing a book to come out about the time the next president takes the oath of office that aims to “shed new light” on Democratic candidate Barack Obama and other “emerging young African American politicians” who are “forging a bold new path to political power.”
Gwen Ifill of the Public Broadcasting Service program “Washington Week” is promoting “The Breakthrough,” in which she argues the “black political structure” of the civil rights movement is giving way to men and women who have benefited from the struggles over racial equality.
Ifill declined to return a WND telephone message asking for a comment about her book project and whether its success would be expected should Obama lose. But she has faced criticism previously for not treating candidates of both major parties the same.
In the end, it won’t really matter - Palin will still make mincemeat of the corrupt and incompetent Biden…but if anyone really wants to claim that the MSM isn’t biased towards Obama, then I’ve got a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you.
