Biden Flashback
Imagine this guy unleashed in the VP debate against Quaylin.

Ok, not to seem like a concern troll or anything, but we need to be cautious in our expectations of the Biden-Palin debate. Yes, Biden should wipe the floor with her on just about every issue imaginable. BUT, we know how the media is and they control these debates. And you know they will do their best to somehow even the playing field here. Look how Bush was pampered in all of his debates with Gore and Kerry. Biden cannot go into it overconfident, and hopefully he's smart enough to realize that (I have a good feeling he is). Also, there IS the gender issue and recall how it played out with Hillary in the primary debates. I can just see it now. He beats this woman into submission (figuratively, of course), and the pundits don't focus on his winning the arguments, they will focus on the superficial appearance of the male bullying the defenseless female. It almost seems like a trap that I, again, hope that Biden is smart enough to avoid.

I think the "bullying" angle only worked because it was a black man vs white woman. It wont work with Biden. Hes a proven longtime family man with loads of unquestionable experience.

I don't want him to attack her and leave her in a quivering mess. I just want him to show the world exactly how little she understands about the complexities of foreign policy.
Dems need to start positioning Palin as a potential President, and keep pointing out the damn obvious - the likelihood of her having to step in.
Look at the last time we had a president without any FP experience? Oh yes, we're at war on at least two fronts, thousands of our soldiers are dead, hundreds of thousands of civilians are dead... and for what exactly?
I am genuinely horrified that McCain would willingly foist this person onto the country. It's dangerously irresponsible, and totally undercuts his message about Obama not being ready. has he completely lost it?
