If I post what I really think, I'll get in even more trouble.

My take: Palin held her own and preached what she was supposed to preach. She hammered to death and beyond the "Maverick" mantra. Her tone bothers me and her voice sounds well . . . annoying.

Biden, who I am VERY familiar with, was the consummate politician. He was smooth as silk and did a great job of making McCain = Bush. That was his talking point and he equally hammered that home and back again.

Between the two of them, the disparity of experience was obvious. They both did about what I expected from them. However, they are the VP candidates and should be considered as such.
