I agree that Palin connects well, but I wish she would give up those corny "folksy" expressions. I find them incredibly annoying. "Joe Six Pack"? I mean, does anyone really say that anymore? I thought she played really well to the camera, and into the living rooms of those watching. She didn't change my mind, but I don't think she embarassed herself.
I personally don't think there is anything wrong with Obama being willing to sit down with foreign leaders. I'm sure he doesn't plan on just calling them up on the phone one day and inviting them for coffee. I think that got lost in the debate -- sitting down and talking with someone doesn't necessarily mean that you are going to agree with them or change your policies. This idea that you have to have all these "preconditions" met to talk to other world leaders -- I think that smacks of the kind of elitism that has ruined us overseas. He didn't say he would negotiate with them, he said he would meet with them. Maybe it would do some good if we did some listening for a change. I'd prefer that we not have any more "axis of evil" speeches.
One thing I noted -- everyone wants to argue about who is the better friend to Israel. For reasons I can't get into on this forum, that really gets under my skin. And it's not because I'm an anti-Semite.
