I was incredibly impressed by the woman who took the stage at Washington University last night. She didn’t appear to be the Sarah Palin of that disastrous Katie Couric interview; she didn’t seem to be anybody we had yet seen. And, except for her obnoxious colloquialisms and a few times when she spoke in a circle, I thought Palin cleaned the floor with the knowledgeable yet completely uninspiring Joe Biden.
Boy, was I wrong. I must have been. Maybe you were too. How else could undecided voters and the mass media completely disagree with me?
“Palin Was Fine, But This Debate Was No Contest” is the headline for Time columnist Joe Klein. (Yep, same Joe Klein.) A little bit of his column is after the jump.
