Good point. When the cameras weren't around, Palin ran a pretty good Alaska too. But in some ways she's still an idiot.IBCoupe wrote: I won't speak to the others, but gaffes aside, most Congressional insiders give Joe Biden credit on two main points:
1. Before being picked for VP, he was one of the most knowledgable Senators serving, and
2. He knows where everyone's skeletons are kept.
Those are what made him a great VP pick. On stage, Biden may look and sound like a liability, but he's probably an asset when there aren't cameras and microphones pointed at him.
