Palin is very effective in a cheerleading role and in energizing the vote. I give her quite a bit of credit for GOP energy heading into tomorrow.

However, when off-script she is less impressive. Answering in-depth policy questions with cliches and platitudes borrowed from stump speeches won't cut it.
