My memory fades between clips of last night and the part of the debate I actually saw. But yes the VP statement floored me, just floored me. I think she claimed the Constitution gives a whole bunch of powers to the VP and she plans to use those powers. Either I suck at Constitutional law (which is of course completely possible) or she does. Difference, in my mind, being I'm not running for VP. I was also stunned when she said McCain "would build an embassy in the divided city of Jerusalem." Oh yeah the Middle East isn't in enough turmoil, let's build an embassy in the one spot to almost certainly make things worse. Seems like an obvious ploy to get Jewish voters
IMO, some of her answers (when she gave answers) were really just strange.
I don't see how this debate changes anything in the race. But how many VP debate have?
