Watching NBC…

**Brian Williams calls it “easily, the most anticipated” vice presidential debate

**Chuck Todd says “neither one lived up to their negative stereotypes”, “she was a better surrogate for her top of the ticket than his”.

**Biden and Palin are having a nice chat post-debate…

**Tom Brokaw says “coldest state, hottest governor”…hilarious…

**Brian Williams interviews Geraldine Ferraro…she says she “did a good job”, and thought Joe Biden effectively communicated Democratic policies

**Peggy Noonan says Palin “killed”…Biden and Ifill “weren’t even there” to Palin

My reaction…Palin came in with an agenda and stuck to it. A friend of mine sent a message that said, “I feel like I’m watching Palin play debate bingo…ooo, ooo, I get to use that one…check!”. And that is what it felt like…but she played it well. I don’t think most McCain supporters will care that she didn’t answer the questions. We will see the pendulum of polling swing a little back to McCain as his support balloons again.

The next presidential debate is next week. The town hall will be interesting…we keep marching toward election day.
