That third paragraph about Biden's history of poor decision-making is especially telling. After you view his record of complete incompetence, try to imagine what the world would be like if his views and votes were actually realized. Quite frankly, I think Obama is even more liberal, and therefore the world would have been worse, and that portends poorly for an Obama presidency.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4313153277056343323.post-15871972132115897032008-09-29T08:23:00.000-07:002008-09-29T08:23:00.000-07:00The same dynamic may actually help Palin as well.I...<I>The same dynamic may actually help Palin as well.</I><BR/><BR/>I think you are right about that and I've blogged about it here: <BR/><BR/><A>http://neoconlatina.blogspot.com/2008/09/will-palins-bush-doctrine-answer.html</A><BR/><BR/>That said, I disagree that Obama passed the foreign policy test with flying colors.

I think that dynamic is why the insta-polls on the debate were so favorable. Lots of fence-sitters said to themselves wait a minute, this guys seems quite knowledgeable. At the debate Obama passed the "Presidential" test with flying colors with voters. <BR/><BR/>The same dynamic may actually help Palin as well. I don't know how expectations for her could be any lower given her interview performances.1Peter3:15https://www.blogger.com/profile/14004790644450614068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4313153277056343323.post-44389945570404684992008-09-28T16:25:00.000-07:002008-09-28T16:25:00.000-07:00Great post.
