Biden gave facts and plans about how he was going to improve education, healthcare, end the war, give tax breaks to the working class.

Palin claimed she and McCain would do a lot of things, but not HOW. She never defended all the tax breaks they would give to Big Wigs in corporations and Exxon. She couldn't defend the fact that their plan would not help people get healthcare. She could not defend the fact that McCain has been wrong about the war the whole time. All she wants to do is drill for more oil, not look for alternate resources. Sarah Palin's "facts"? "We're going to cut the greed out of the government." HOW???? She says, you want to trust the government with your health care? Then, she wants to be a part of that government? Can you insult something and say you want to be a part of it in the same sentence and be believable? She had no defense against the fact that they have no real plan for Afghanistan. She said they could use a surge like in Iraq when Biden pointed out that the US General in control down there said a surge would NOT work. He also pointed out that we spend more in a week in Iraq than we've spent in Afghanistan for the whole 7 years we've been there. And THAT'S where the real threat is. Not Iraq. She won't sit with leaders and talk diplomacy???? She wants to give dangerous leaders the silent treatment???? That will NEVER work. It's ridiculous. You need to communicate, even if they're despicable. They do have power and maybe with talks AND a show of force you can be effective. The first time she ever even left the country was in 2007.

She lost the debate in almost every question. She's all show and no substance.
