Well, for someone who's supposed to be speaking to "Joe Six-pack", she obviously didn't do so well, as she was speaking down to them based on that analysis. Given all of the "you betcha's" and other junk she was spilling (which would dumb the level down), that would put the rest of her speech far above the level of Mr. Six-pack and Mrs. Hackey-mom- I guess her trainers should have worked with her more on that.

Sweetheart, I am not up for the office of the Vice Presidency and I am not being televised for one of the most significant debates in this nation's history. And actually, if you do tape me speaking without a "written speech," I guarantee you that you will hear a LIMITED amount of grammatical errors compared with Palin.

Any by "her basic grammar" i mean the basic grammar skills that we all possess SMART ASS. Talk to ME when you have a degree in English or Linguistics because trust me, I am way ahead of you.

Yea, well I don't like Obama too much either (I was for Hillary.) But that doesn't change the fact Palin is a moron.

What are you guys talking about? Her grammar makes perfect sense! Look at this snippit from the debate:

"One thing that Americans do at this time, also, though, is let's commit ourselves just every day American people, Joe Six Pack, hockey moms across the nation, I think we need to band together and say never again."
Vice-Presidential Debate - Biden and Palin - Transcript - Election Guide 2008 - The New York Times

Um. Yeah. She is talk real good.

I would like the leadership of my country to appear presidential, not just physically, but in command of proper English. How can they talk of I educational reform if they can't complete a well crafted sentence. They are setting the standards for America's children. They represent America to the world.
