My Moment of Zen

I watched the CNN coverage of the debate last night.  They had a focus group giving their reactions both during and after the debate.

Soledad O’Brien asked the focus group, a group of self-identified undecided (but swayable) voters, which of them had made a decision after watching this debate.  Several hands were raised.  When she narrowed it down a bit, there was only one person who had decided to vote for McCain after hearing this debate.  She identified herself as a Republican.  Here is her answer:

Soledad:  What did you hear in this debate that makes you sway toward McCain now?
Focus Group Participant:  I think Sarah Palin was able to regain…ah…regain that, that she is a real person, and that she knows what she’s gonna be doing, and I think she’s able to restore the confidence in th… McCain’s choice as being her Vice President.

There you have it ladies and gentleman.
