Gwen Ifill did a poor job last night. She let Palin change the subject at will and asked no follow up questions. The Rs bias tactic worked.

"Undecided" voters
The trend in debate coverage this year is to have a roomful of undecided voters who watch the debates and weigh in on whether they've been converted so far.
I was driving home late last night around midnight and looking for some sort of debate analysis on Sirius. FoxNews was the only network that wasn't replaying the debate or in commercial.
They kick it over to their undecided voters, whom they've gathered at the Anheuser-Busch brewery in St. Louis (probably with the intention of getting them liquored up).
The question is asked: "After tonight, is there any doubt Palin is qualified?"
YES! YES! YES! The room registers a resounding yes. I can't help but smile, despite my disgust. It's bullshit journalism, but at least it's transparent.
Except for one guy, far, far away from a microphone - presumably in the back of the room - shouting "No! She's not! No!"
Suffice to say, the reporter in the room didn't seek him out to elaborate on his opinion.

Few direct answers from Palin, but she did give a 'shoutout' and dropped all kinds of folksy lines. Makes GWB look Ivy League. Which he is.

Palin was smarmy, said little of substance, & constantly changed the subject. Better than Couric but still not good. Joe was too timid. Sigh

Sen Dog from Cypress Hill on Scott Farrell's radio show tonight. Entertaining as hell. He can speak on sports.

'Sweeteners' could make bailout package sour for House Dems
You knew this was going to happen. The wheels don't move unless they're greased.
