BP 1-18
Jackdied is liveblogging and notes that Palin is whipping through the points. I agree. Both Biden and Palin are running through points, but the need here is to tie it all to a theme which must center on Obama and McCain in the end. Biden has been more effective in linking issues back to Obama. Palin needs to do the same for McCain.

She's now doing a little bit of that with regards to the discussion about the Iraq war. But this is a secondary issue at this stage of the election. The key points need to be back on the economy. Palin needs to hit at Obama's lack of resume, lack of specificity on what he has done in his life, lack of experience, and association with elements of the far-left. Palin is not doing this.
