Where was this woman during her interview with Katie Couric?

Those sections of the interview were edited out by CBS. Duh.

If the mainstream media want to know how to deal with Palin from here on, it needs to look back at the lessons learned from the whooping Ronald Reagan put on them in the ‘80’s. Yes, Sarah Palin was that good last night!

Didn’t Sarah Palin look good last night? You know she’s had five kids and still looks like that?

She looked great! Like wow!

Just tweaking MM.

I know that’s part of the hatred for SP.

I got the feeling last night that Joe Biden genuinely admires and holds Sarah Palin in much higher regard than he does Obama. He won’t admit it, but I think I’m right on this.

Memo to Barack Obama:

Your repeated inappropriate mouthing of the word “change” in your two-year campaign will never convince anybody with a brain cell that you are anything more than a race-baiting Marxist thug, or that your running mate has an IQ higher than that of a potted geranium.

Memo to MurryMom:

Nothing can ever change the fact that Obama is an unqualified, inexperienced affirmative action hire who attended a racist church for 20 years, has domestic terrorists as best friends, lied about his relationship to them, is neck deep in the financial meltdown scandal via criminal associates, and has no knowledge of foreign affairs, economics, ethics, or energy issues.

Oh, and by the way, he's a Chicago machine hack, not a reformer. Unlike Sarah, who challenged her own party's machine and reformed it.

if, in 1984, Geraldine Ferraro had spoken in the relentlessly folksy tones that Palin used, she would have been hounded out of politics as fundamentally unserious.

Yeah, like Reagan /s.

The problem with Ferraro and Mondale and Gore and Kerry and Hillary was they were shrill, disrespectful of other's views and incapable of not taking themselves too seriously. Noticed I left out Slick.

And the fraud that replaced Buckley weighs in.

Don’t you at least have to take one conservative position to even be referenced as a conservative even at the NYT. Apparently not, because I don’t remember Brooks ever having done so.

Noonan already fell all over herself in beaming last night.

Oh Kathleen....your up next to bat.

are those dark red pumps?

I know this is not a fashion show board, but I really need some new clothes and I like most of her outfits.

Its tough to see liberals lash out in anger when they have been owned on National TV. The partial birth enthusiasts vs. Good Ol Boy (Girl). And the Good Ol Gal wiped the floor up with Biden. But go ahead and keep lashing out at this woman, feminist jealousy is soooooo revealing

though she stepped over the line in claiming that Democrats sought to raise the “the white flag of surrender.”

Really? Brooks is such a wuss. Yo, we read your stupid columns leading up to the debate. We knew you were wrong, and now you do, too. Why not just admit it like a man?

As someone here pointed out, this is a "tepid" column. Tepid, dweebie columns are written by people trying to step around some obvious truth. Such as that Sarah, Middle-American accent and all, overturned the latte cart all over the liberals' laps.

It must be FReepathon season...that seems to be when we hear from the one who’s all mouth and no ears.

Oh, ye of the tin hat!

Are you saying that MurryMom is actually someone on the “inside”, like maybe with a last name of Robinson,

that’s using “her” as a fundraiser?

With a bemused smile and a never-ending flow of words, she laid out her place on the ticket — as the fearless neighbor for the heartland bemused by the idiocies of Washington. Her perpetual smile served as foil to Biden’s senatorial seriousness...Where was this woman during her interview with Katie Couric?

Too much prepping from campaign handlers and PR people prior to the Couric interview, is my guess. By contrast, in the debate we saw Palin being Palin.

Not only that, but several times Biden prefaced a remark by saying, “I love John McCain,” or “I love him, but ....” That was nice.
