Okay, folks. Let's keep an eye on this debate and see if Sarah can beat down hairplug.

No Senator Biden you idiot, the Powers of the Executive are in Article II, not Article I of the Constitution .

Actually, the office of Vice President is defined in Article I, as well...but it's Cheney's interpretation not Biden's.

Article I, Section 3:

The Vice President of the United States shall be President of the Senate, but shall have no Vote, unless they be equally divided.

The Senate shall choose their other Officers, and also a President pro tempore, in the Absence of the Vice President, or when he shall exercise the Office of President of the United States.

Biden is a dumbass

She’s keep making that lame brained claim that she won’t allow “greed” on Wall Street. How can you have Wall Street without greed? The GOP has never been so far on the left in my lifetime.

No, the media will say Biden won, and the stock market going up (maybe) will be as a result of that.

Unfortuantely, I think Joe’s near-tearful moment threw Sarah off just a little bit.

You’re forgetting about the fact that Palin is saying everything we’ve been hoping she would say, and about the fact that she is kicking Biden’s behind with a smile on her face the entire time.

You’re not a troll, you’re a communist.

Biden needs to re-read the Constitution. It's Article II that deals with the Executive Branch - not Article I as he just claimed.

when Sarah speaks, it’s easy to follow.
When Biden speaks it sounds like the ‘blah blah blah’ from the Charlie Brown cartoons.
I don’t think a lot of people even hear what he says

It really does appear that Biden did get the questions in advance.

Still, I don't think Palin has accomplished much at all.

She needed to hit a home run, and Biden has been lecturing her all night.

It was real hard to oppose Bork? Are you kidding me? That was his tough change?

BLESSED BE THE NAME OF THE LORD.

AND LORD, GOD, PLEASE HELP, CAUSE SARAH TO SAY SOME THINGS IN CLOSING THAT ARE ABSOLUTELY AUTHENTIC TO HER AND AUTHENTIC TO YOUR PRIORITIES

AND

WHICH WILL ABSOLUTELY BE RIVETING, CONVINCING, IMPRESSIVE TO AT LEAST 75% OF THOSE WATCHING.

In Jesus’ Name.

She has out performed tonight, way beyond my expectations. You could tell Joe even knew she connected to the American people because his body language indicated her charm moved him.

She mentioned it only to the fact that Obama and Biden voted against oversight for Fannie and Freddie but you're right, she could have said follow the money and it leads to Obama.

Please keep in mind that it’s VERY easy for us to sit here at our keyboards and played the “should’ve, could’ve, would’ve” game. Do you have ANY IDEA the amount of stress she is under right now?

I don't think there are many people on FR (and we have a bunch of very sharp people here) who could switch places with Sarah on that stage and not have a meltdown from the stress.

This is my first post on here as it has been running so slow and I think she is doing fantastic. Have to question what debate they are watching if they saw otherwise.

She doesn’t get flustered and Biden looks mad from time to time which speaks volumes.

Names that I have never seen or ones that hit the debate threads with doom and gloom are all over this thread. Guess if they can slow it down, they think they can win.

I would say some of the posters are also very picky on what should be said. Why don’t they try being in a debate even locally? It is not easy.

I just got out of the shower. How’s the debate going?

You missed the part when Gwen said Joe's hair looked fabulous for a balding man.

Very astute catch! That would make a wonderful McCain campaign ad.
