Polls Agree With Me

CBS and CNN polls both agree with me on the debate. And here's an interesting note that might explain the reaction of the two women with whom I watched the debate: A colleague today told me that he watched CNN (I watched Fox last night) and that CNN broke down its handy-dandy enthus-o-dial (or whatever they call it) into separate lines for women and men. The colleague said Palin did GREAT among men, but that she did far worse among women, and that Biden did quite well among women. What does it mean? Maybe men are reacting to Palin's looks, while women want reassurance that she is actually up to the job, and just don't see it.

Or is that sexist-in-reverse to say that?
