I left a recording of the rerun of the debate on in the next room, and can't quite understand what they are saying. But it sounds remarkably like Bill Clinton talking. It's the same fairly flat, slightly hoarse, reasoned, moderately paced presentation, along with some variation of pitch to make a point that even follows Clinton's pattern.

When I watched Biden talk I felt I was looking at someone who could easily fill the job of President. I wonder how much of that is because he follows the image of President that Clinton established.

Palin wasn't the NASCAR smashup that some were hoping for. She avoided a crash and burn mistake. But even though she was peddling as fast as she could, she kept falling farther and farther behind. I think her main sins were being annoying and boring. That voice! It was like chalk squeaking on a blackboard.

If you look at this debate like a boxing match, it was like a lightweight going against Ali (ok, maybe not Ali, I'm being generous to Biden here). Sure, she outperformed her low expectations by lasting all ten rounds, but the belt's only going to one person.

I feel being taxed to death to pay for welfare mama's will leave an even longer impression.

Spliff, the day I actually bother to address you is the day I lose all self-respect. Troll begone.

Anyhoo, two essential movies for understanding Palin:

Nicole Kidman in "To Die For"

Reese Witherspoon in "Election".
