Noun, verb and energy?

Posted: Thursday, October 02, 2008 9:37 PM by Domenico Montanaro

From NBC's Domenico Montanaro
Palin eschewing the questions is nothing new. She did it in her Alaska debates. She is comfortable talking about energy, so she has come back to it over and over. The questions don't matter to Palin. It worked in Alaska. But will it work on the national stage? Will we hear Biden say something like, "The governor says the same thing over and over:  a noun, a verb and energy?" Maybe not. By the way, does anyone else think Biden is a little nervous and not quite in his comfort zone here? He doesn't seem to know exactly how to go on offense against Palin.

Sarah says that the Bush/Republican policy isn't an abject failure!  What planet is she from?  OMG!!!!!
Does she even know the definition of reform?  I doubt it!
WHAT THE HECK IS SHE TALKING ABOUT..GO JOE...YOU GO YOU ARE ON A ROLL NOW........
Well said!!! As Biden said, it will take years for domestic oil to start to trickle...

As Biden pointed out. We can not fix a problem if we do not understand the problem.

Why does she continue to dodge questions and return to Energy....McCain will benefit for Domestic oil increase.
