Independent Voters Call Palin the Winner

Non-partisan pollster Frank Luntz assembled a group of undecided voters, half who voted for Bush, half who voted for Kerry, to "dial in" their feedback throughout the debate. They called it overwhelmingly for Palin. Note that a fe changed their minds in McCain's favor, versus only one who moved toward Obama.

(Note gratuitous Budweiser product placement -- it would have been interesting to see the "3-beer" response, for truly candid feedback.)
