update October 3 5:15 pm
Two additional polls to report:
Survey USA Biden 51% Palin 32%
Undecided 17%
MediaCurves.com tracked independent voters, showing them breaking to Biden 67% to Palin 33%.
Original report:
Random and non-random polls for the vice presidential debate declare Biden the winner over Palin in the vice-presidential debate.
Non-random (unscientific) polls on AOL and MSNBC web sites show Biden winning 48 to 45 and 78.6 to 18.9 respectively.
Randomly selected subjects on three other polls also show Biden winning:
CNN/Opinion Research Biden 51 Palin 36
CBS Biden 46 Palin 21
Fox Biden 61 Palin 39
In the CBS poll, of the uncommitted voters, 18% now say they will vote Obama/Biden, 10% now say McCain/Palin.
Post-debate reaction seemed to agree that Governor Palin gave a good account of herself in being able to deliver prepared answers, though often not responsive to the question at hand.
Biden was able to draw on extensive experience from his long experience as a Senator.
I was surprised that Palin's charm did not work better than the poll results showed. But she likely was weighed down by Saturday Night Live parodies and interviews earlier in the week with CBS's Couric. By the time of the debate, people knew that she is not ready for the presidency and saw through her efforts to appear that she was with canned responses.
The issue from the Thursday night debate ultimately is not about Palin but about McCain's judgment in selecting someone with so little qualification for national office.
The McCain/Palin ticket will likely drop into attack gear for the remainder of the campaign in a last ditch effort to stop Obama and Biden. I think it's likely to become really ugly but hope that McCain chooses instead to recover some of his dignity as Palin did in a good effort Thursday night.

Not that bad
I mean come on this election is long over and people are still over here blogging about this sort of thing like John McCain is some sort of bad guy. You should check out the credit card processing companies, they are not the bad guy like people would try to make them seen.

Thanks you
Let the large corporations run free, even off-shore, and let them not be saddled with taxation. muhabbet We all benefit with more growth and more jobs. That, mirc I think, is the basic logic of maverick economics, Sohbet which is of course Republican economics. The results, including today's sharp decline in jobs, are apparent.
Half-Baked Alaskan
I am gravely concerned that we could put someone with horrific people skills and poor judgement into the White House. No, I'm not winking at Governor Palin, the flirty desserty candidate for VP that could use a good haircut. I'm referring to Senator John McCain. Mr. Maverick has desperately and unwisely chosen a candidate for his second that, frankly, scares the Jiminey Crickets out of a midwesterner like me. It demonstrates such a lack of integrity and people skills that I've nearly "holy cowed" myself to death watching it. I can see "you've got to be kidding me" from here. How can an impulse-challenged "Maverick" and a half-baked Alaskan possibly bring stability to Wall Street or K Street! We all ought to give a ratatouille about that.

Palin: Style but no substance
I agree with Chris Matthews of Hardball that Palin delivered a well coached speech yesterday but "no substance" was detected. There was no originality and she spoke often with nervous voice in the talking points. Biden was extra polite, he should not have been so. Palin should be subjected to more impromptu questions to prove many things. Awful accent!! Awful choice of words!!!
I will be surprised if the ratings will sway even by an iota towards McCain after Palin's superficial performance last night.
Maverick Economics
With both Republican candidates identifying themselves (with no small measure of self-congratulations) as mavericks, I've been wondering, given our economic crisis, what a "maverick economics" would be. I think part of the answer must be that maverick economics includes deregulation. Let the large corporations run free, even off-shore, and let them not be saddled with taxation. We all benefit with more growth and more jobs. That, I think, is the basic logic of maverick economics, which is of course Republican economics. The results, including today's sharp decline in jobs, are apparent.
A sad, sad commentary on the decline of public comment
We've lost something when even the bravest of the defenders of the truth are afraid to use, at best, either LOTS OF CAPS or plenty!!! of!!! exclamation points!!!!, but not both. Dismaying.
