"By the way, if you feel like reading, I did liveblog the debate tonight "

You did a pretty good job. I think you downplayed what the debate accomplished. Palin was trying to avoid looking like a ditz. Which, she managed to some extent. Fortunately, the structure didn't allow for follow up, because that is where she really craters and starts talking in tongues. Biden, though, used his time to pound on McCain. Net result, Palin was trying to hold onto that 43% to 44% which seems to be McCain's core of support and Biden went after the independents.

Both, I think, accomplished their goals. However, that makes Obama-Biden the net winner.

BTW, my favorite Biden moment was when he pointed out how Cheney and Palin are twisting the Constitution as to what powers the VP has.

Palin's most bizarre moment was when she invented a new commanding general in Afghanistan and clearly didn't know what our actual commander there has said.
