Oooh, I bet Sarah Palin felt good reciting back that memorized answer. Too bad it isn't true.
Biden gave a brilliant response on Iraq, pointing out that Iraq is still broken. Palin's response? Stale talking points. No depth whatsoever. It's as if Biden didn't even give an answer.

Foreign policy is clearly Palin's Achilles heel, and since she can't debate on the facts, the McCain camp loaded her up with "zingers." But she's delivering them poorly, and they ring so hollow in this substantive debate.
Maybe if the two people didn't have children fighting this war, the light, snarky zingers would be more effective. Now? They fall flat.
--------
Pakistan is one of Biden's strongest areas of foreign policy. He keeps hitting John McCain's judgment, and emphasizes that Pakistan needs more attention. And the CNN dials absolutely surge.
And now we know that without the word spelled out phonetically for her, Palin loves the word "nukyular", just like President Bush. The prospect of another eight years of that? Joy.
