THE CHEERFUL, TOUGH HOCKY MOM BEATS THE WEARY SENATOR
Leave all policy nuances aside for a moment and look at last night’s performances forensically.
Governor Sarah Palin fully justified John McCain’s decision to put her on the ticket. Where she was strong, Senator Biden was tired; where she was charming, Biden was boring; where she was cheerful, the Senator was grim; and where Joe Biden unconvincingly trotted out his blue collar origins, Sarah was the quintessentially real deal. She moved the ball for her party’s nominee and the rest is up to John McCain.
An unintended side effect for the democrats: It was painfully obvious that Senator Joe Biden is on the ticket to mask Senator Obama’s weakness on military issues.
