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

[rintense]

Well she can’t call potential voters stupid, now, can she?

[advance_copy]

The look on Biden’s face is hilarious. She’s brilliant, and he doesn’t know what to do about it.

[Choozer]

At the very least, but probably more significant, is that her bias will cause her not to ask, or even conceive of, the best and toughest questions for Joe Biden.

[af_vet_rr]

I'd prefer she stay away from anything having to do with soccer or hockey parents. That makes her look like a dingbat.

Let's just hope Sarah doesn't say "Maverick" - people are starting to mock her and McCain over that.

Okay, I spoke too soon - she's brought up hockey/soccer moms twice and she's brought up "maverick" twice. She's looking foolish if she keeps that up. Like another FReeper said, if you have to go around telling people you're a maverick, or have your VP candidate tell people you're a maverick, you're probably not a maverick.

She needs to hit back - Senator Obama said. . . blah blah blah

[Gordon Greene]

Love Palin... McCain... hehh.

However... If I hear the word “bipartisan” one more time.
If I remember right, GWB was elected saying he’d do the same thing only to find out Bipartisan means, “you do what I want you to... I do what I want me to...”

It doesn’t work and true conservatives don’t want compromise!!!

[IGOTMINE]

She has GOT TO SLAM THE DEMOCRATS THAT FORCED banks to make these loans. She has to....NOW!

[NRA2BFree]

May God send forth His reinforcements to break every arrow that comes her way that no weapon formed against Sarah Palin will prosper.

I stand in agreement with you. May God put the words into Sarah's mouth and put confused words in Bidens mouth, causing him to make several gaffes, and let his mind wander. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen!

[branch15_5]

She’s settling down now. Time to go on the attack. Biden much more pointed in his attacks.

No more Mrs. Nice Gal. Bring it, Sarah.

[TonyInOhio]

Beat it, then.

[acapesket]

I DO!! I HATE JACK KEMP! He’s been a niggling headache throughout the Republican Party for too many years!
Love Bill Bennett, but he’s a RINO too.

[Aria]

Sarah is looking into the camera - talking to me. Joe is looking who knows where, not at me.

[muawiyah]

Yes, VP candidates are here to support the ticket; not the other way around.  Now let her get out there and kick this punka$$ed CryptoNaziCommie ba5+ard5 a55.

[Political Junkie Too]

Interesting observation...

I have FNC on the TV with CSPAN in PIP. CSPAN is doing split-screen, and Biden keeps looking at Sarah while she answers. Palin is looking down at the notes she's taking.

-PJ

[Interesting Times]

Why, why, why do Palin and McCain absolutely refuse to mention the actual cause of the current crisis - Dems forcing banks to write bad mortgages in the name of “affordable housing.”

[Shortstop7]

Yep...she’s calmed down a bit...thank goodness.

Also got a look of a “cuda” look on her face when Biden talks.

[LibertyRocks]

You know what REALLY ticks me off — Liberals CONSISTENTLY misrepresent De-Regulation as meaning NO OVERSIGHT!

[fanfan]

She said Wall Street was to blame???

The Democrats were to blame, not Wall Street!

[machogirl]

lol

[RightFighter]

What’s up with Joe Biden’s eyes? He looks like he’s turning Japanese or something.
