Click below to see Biden's amazing reaction to Ryan's rally:

The problem with Palin is that too many people just don’t take her seriously.
Mitt’s first big decision has proven to be a good one so far. As good as the other VP candidates were, nobody could match Ryan’s command of the all important and impending health and budget issues. And of course he puts a swing state into play. I love Palin but the politcal calculous needed to win just didn’t favor her, at least this time around.
I am not saying Palin for VP candidate. That part is over long time back.
After selection, Romney camp failed to tap Palin. They need somebody to change narrative.
Palin lives in Obama head. Bring her in campaign and mess up some heads.
Says who? This election, more than others, is about the wallet, unemployment and record deficits.
“Palin lives in Obama head.”
An argument could be made that for Obama, Ryan is equally, if not more, irritating than Palin. Recall Ryan’s publically schooling the president on the budget back in 2010, and Obama’s sarcastic jab at Ryan’s “props”. Obama fears Ryan’s intellect.
Your posted link has nothing to do with Biden’s reaction.
They need Palin pitch and tone to do that.

No. They need to be themselves, which is what they are doing.
And, it’s working.
(Palin is doing a terrific job at the grass roots level.)
Look glad you love Palin but take a deep breath, get over your hurt feelings and deal with reality.
You got Palin in 2008 and lost. Picking Palin in 2012 would help any more then it did in 2008.
I am not asking her to be VP candidate, that part is over.
Did it ever occur to you that she didn’t want to be the VP selection, even if Romney wanted her.
Ryan is a good pick and it’s time to get over what could have been.
Glad you love Palin but the facts do not fit your dogma. Ryan has all ready flipped polls in WI, OH, VA and FLA for Romney. Palin had no such impact on the polls. McCain was never "10 points ahead" in 2008. To say so indicates a willing suspension of fact to fit an emotion based opinion.
I am not talking about VP pick etc.
I am talking about campaign.
Who said 10 point ahead etc?
Am I missing something here?
Ryan has another major advantage: He is from Wisconsin, went to college in Ohio, climbs the mountains of Colorado and has a mom in Florida.
What do these four states have in common?
Sorry you seem to confuse media polls for professional polls. They are two completely different things. The junk polls you like to cite are manipulated to validate a pre determined story line in the media. No serious pollster pays any attention to them
And what makes you think Palin would have accepted? She stated in her book, 'Going Rogue', that she'd never run as a VP candidate again.
I also think it's absurd to suggest that a true conservative leader like Palin should serve as VP under a documented liberal progressive like Romney. He's not even in the same league as her, and isn't qualified to carry her briefcase.
I swear some of you sound like babies discussing Sarah Palin. She’s fine but please she was not going to be offered vp by any candidate.
Actually he does. Sarah got a 10 point bump in the polls for McCain. Ryan has a one point bump and it is pretty much gone.
Why did McCain lose his ass then? Give you a hint..
“OK, where is it? There was nothing from Bite-me at the link.”
FWIW...
