Palin probably knows less about foreign affairs than Obama does. She would be skewered by Biden in a debate.
I also like Heather Wilson of New Mexico, but her name never even comes up on the radar screen.
I wouldn't be so sure. Gov. Palin, like any other governor, most likely did not get to where she is without breaking a few balls. But I've not seen her debate so I can't say with certainty that she would be a flop against Biden. Besides, Biden's mouth is his own worst enemy anyway.

I agree, Rep. Wilson would also be a fine choice. It is always heartening to see a conservative with balls.
