She couldn't describe the Bush doctrine in foreign affairs, seemed to have little grasp of the proposed financial industry bailout and even appeared to endorse Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama's position on chasing al-Qaida terrorists in Pakistan. Palin's performance against Biden, the Delaware Democrat with 35 years in the Senate, could restore her initial luster or seriously weaken the GOP ticket. Last week's Obama-McCain debate appeare... |

Those who crossed paths with her during her successful 2006 gubernatorial campaign extol her ability to speak plainly and convincingly and connect with ordinary people. Come Thursday, they say, she should let that instinct shine at her only scheduled debate with Biden. "She's very self-confident, very self-assured, and she's very aware. She's in tune. She's not guessing or adrift," said Dittman, who worked on Palin's 2006 campaign. Dittman said the Palin of 2008 needs to... |

House Republicans also welcomed a decision Tuesday by the Securities and Exchange Commission to ease rules that force companies to devalue assets on their balance sheets to reflect the price they can get on the market.
