Biden has made a few gaffs. But, he is a Democrat. I get it.
Palin has been put into a position of having the pressure of McCain winning or losing based on something she says. When she is asked a question that she has not been briefed on she stumbles because of her lack of knowing how the campaign wants certain issues handled, i.e. - Supreme Court cases. In, addition, she needs to come across as the number two person on the ticket as does Biden. We know Biden has had to eat some crow to not take the spot light from Obama. Palin is not speaking for herself, I would have thought you would recognize that.

Everyone has an opinion. How about the Clinton folks and the number of Clinton 2012 websites up and running. These kinds of arguments are meaningless.

But the problem for the Republicans goes beyond McCain and Palin.
The republican "brand" has lost the battle of ideas and offers nothing new.
Tax cuts targeted to the wealthy (supply side, trickle down voodoo) have failed.

Here is a discussion stopper. How have the tax cuts failed, by what objective measure?
