Governor Palin brought a smile and a wink to the VP debate, but unfortunately it was no substitute for substance at a time when the American people are looking for real answers to their real problems. Palin can be folksy all she wants in an attempt to connect with voters, but voters don't want "cute" behavior from their leaders, they want to hear solutions.
On the other hand, Senator Joe Biden answered the questions with substance, knowledge, and a command of the facts. He also showed civility and respect toward Governor Palin, and in return, to the people who are looking for answers.
The day after the debate Republicans said Palin handled herself well. They also commented how her folksy talk would go over well with the people. But it was Biden's performance and knowledge that showed he is the one ready to be President should that ever come to pass. That is what a major part of this election is all about.
