In other words, Joe, the way to beat her in the debate is for you to be somebody else!

Biden is one of the stupidest men in public life, but he thinks he’s smart. That’s his achilles heel. I think Gov. Palin will get it.

I think the media has proven that it is acceptable to be sexist. Heck, the headlines the day after the debate’ll probably call Palin a sexist.

The town sure seems to have a dclining population problem, though. First she was Mayor of a town of 8,000. Now it is down to 6,000. If this keeps up, everyone will have moved away by the election...
What happened to her being Governor of the largest State for two years??? (Not to mention having an approval rating some nine times greater than the Congress?)

Joe Biden can beat Sarah Palin by pretending she's a man. And that he's not Joe Biden. How about we simplify it. Joe needs to pretend that he's a man.

Don't be a wiseass and just stick to the facts. No comments about your opponents' weight, fingernail color or if she's wearing Jimmy Choos!

“That’s your problem, Joe. Everyone expects you to win the debate, and to trounce her on the substance.”
Utterly delusional. Wow.

3 days on FR should give her all the foreign policy stuff she needs.
Not to mention keeping her up on current events.

You know why Biden will lose the debate? He can't keep his cool.

This just might be the high point of the election when Slow Joe gets beaten alive. He might not even know he’s been made toast.

I expect him to lose, partly because of the issues outlined by Dahlia, the same reasons Barak won because Hillary! couldn’t really get tough on him.
The Damocles sword of identity politics incompetently applied.

All she’s got to to is get Biden to start running his mouth, his own ego will do the rest...

****Palin proved herself a charming, confident, and gifted reader of speeches.****
Ah they're doing the "reader of speeches" line. The writer of this article is probably shall we say is a rather small man. Liberals are scum.

I’m still perplexed at Obama’s choice in Biden. I mean of all the people he could have picked, he picks a Senator (knowing he lacks his own executive experience) and a pompous, typical “white guy” Senator no less.
Did he think this would win him some white votes? If so, Obama really is out of touch and a moron.
