CNN debate poll: Biden 51, Palin 36. 64 per cent say Biden did better than expected, 14 per cent said worse. 84 per cent say Palin did better than expected, 7 per cent say worse. On that note, can we please take it back over to the other thread.

Agreed! Palin was out of her league and something Biden did really well was focus on his strenghts and on McCains voting record, basically leaving Palin to float along

Palin did make Obama out to be a risk especially his lack of foreign policy experience!

Palin got beaten up the most by Biden on foreign policy – so I doubt she took much out of Obama on that point…

If the medium is the message – Palin wins

If the message is the medium – Biden wins

But Sarah Palin is here to stay whether you like it or not. The deer Hunter boys and girls will love her.

I think both Biden and Palin are better than their bosses.

Glen @ 283,

That list equates to a Biden win across the board as you can discount Fox, they are more biased to the Republicans than Sky is to the Libs …….

Sorry about my previous repeated post.

The media in America is so biased one way or another.

MSNBC - Biden Win
ABC - Biden Win
CNN - Biden Win
Fox - Tie

Yeah you’re right, on this figures it is obvious that Fox is the biased one.

Palin did make Obama out to be a risk especially his lack of foreign policy experience!

No she didn’t, I agree with Mickey Kaus, she FAILED to make people worry about Obama, which is what she needed to do.

On the other hand, Biden criticised “John McCain” more than he critised Palin.

Regarding her gaffes, yes she has made a few but John Howard was good at gaffes also and ofcourse the media were completely in love with Mark Lathem yet he was more than prone to gaffes and one final example premier Steve Bracks was well known for gaffes yet that didn’t hurt him.

Howard wasn’t out of his depth though, Palin clearly is. A gaffe here and there doesn’t matter too much if you still look as though you know what you are doing most of the time.

Latham just looked unhinged, and rightfully got the voter’s boot up the proverbial.

Bracks made a few gaffes, but he delivered and Victorians saw the results.
