This was the first time I've heard Biden speak. I was impressed. He seems quite vice-presidential. He sometimes went too much into specifics, but not quite far enough to his detriment.
Palin didn't embarrass herself, but her overall performance was disappointing. She dodged and distracted too much. She was too vague.
If you review this, I'd think you could say Biden is the clear victor.
