Palin / McCain should Call for more VP Debates
What does the McCain / Palin team have to lose by calling for more debates? I wish that Palin would have done it during the debate last night.
Obama won’t want this because it can’t help him if he says yes, and if he says no he will definitely be hurting.
Of course the American people deserve to have more debates. We need to hear more straight from the candidates mouths instead of the media.
So McCain Team, call for more debates immediately!
What they are Saying about the Palin Debate
Luntz Focus Group Calls Palin The Winner: “I Think She Just Spoke To The People, The American People”
Luntz Focus Group Voter: “I think she just spoke to the people, the American people. She was direct.” (Luntz Focus Group On Fox News, 10/2/08)

“She Was Every Bit His Equal”
The New York Times’ David Brooks: “I thought she was every bit his equal. I thought she was fluid, confident, she struck her theme, just the regular old mom. But she handled the foreign policy issues. She did fine with Iraq. She did fine with Iran. She certainly hit energy often enough. I suspect Republicans are going to be quite pleased.” (David Brooks, PBS’ “Post-Debate Analysis,” 10/2/08)
* Brooks: “She could do policy, she did quite well on the gubernatorial issues and did quite well on mentioning John McCain all the time, much more than Joe Biden who scarcely mentioned Barack Obama, she did quite well with that. I thought was just that style of me versus Washington. I thought it was quite effective for her in general. I suspect most people, there are a few more hallmark moments, Norman Rockwell moments but I suspect most people will really like that.” (David Brooks, PBS’ “Post-Debate Analysis,” 10/2/08)
“She’s Articulate, Quick, Detail-Oriented” With “Everyday American Appeal”
ABC’s Rick Klein: “[W]here has this Sarah Palin been? She’s articulate, quick, detail-oriented tonight.” (Rick Klein, “Live Debate” Blog, blogs.abcnews.com, 10/2/08)
* Klein: “9:03 pm CT: ‘It’s so obvious that I’m a Washington outsider,’ Palin says. Again, better done than said, but undeniable. This line of attack, driving a wedge between Biden and Obama, is legit, though it can seem forced at times.” (Rick Klein, “Live Debate,” ABC News’ “Live Debate” Blog, blogs.abcnews.com, 10/2/08)
CNN’s Bill Schneider: “Palin is going after Biden over his comments that the wealthy should pay more taxes as a patriotic move. The Alaska governor has come to this debate fully armed.” (Bill Schneider, “Schneider: Attack, Counter Attack,” CNN’s “Political Ticker” Blog, www.cnn.com, 10/2/08)
Palin Wins Debate
McCain-Palin 2008 tonight issued the following statement on tonight’s debate:
“Tonight, Governor Palin proved beyond any doubt that she is ready to lead as Vice President of the United States. She won this debate, putting Joe Biden on defense on energy, foreign policy, taxes and the definition of change. Governor Palin laid bare Barack Obama’s record of voting to raise taxes, opposing the surge in Iraq, and proposing to meet unconditionally with the leaders of state sponsors of terror. The differences between the Obama-Biden ticket and the McCain-Palin ticket could not have been clearer. The American people saw stark contrasts in style and worldview. They saw Joe Biden, a Washington insider and a 36-year Senator, and Governor Palin, a Washington outsider and a maverick reformer. Governor Palin was direct, forceful and a breath of fresh air.”
–Jill Hazelbaker, McCain-Palin 2008 Communications Director
