I totally agree- hit too hard and get called a bully. Go too lightly and miss the chance to expose her ignorance.
I bet ratings for the VP debates will be as high or higher than for Obama/McCain.
Much higher. The people who watch debates already know all about McCain and Obama. But nobody really knows Palin's policies or how she'd react to the hypothetical situations they're sure to bring up. God knows what might come out in the VP debate--I'll know I'll be tuning in.
The scary thought is Biden doesn't have to die if Obama gets elected President. We'd already have someone with very little experience and obsolutely no Foreign experience.
No scarrier than another 4 more years of Repub rule...the country is dying, do you care????
No Foreign experience? - do your research, but you won't because that would defeat the purpose.
I am worried because either way, some will see it as an offense against her as a woman. I don't know how to he will be able to properly handle the situation, to both expose her as a weak candidate, but still be respectful and not condescending. I am very anxious to see these debates, and to see who the moderator will be.
"I served with Jack Kennedy. I knew Jack Kennedy; Jack Kennedy was a friend of mine. You, sir, are no Jack Kennedy." ~ Senator Lloyd Bentsen to Dan Quayle, VP debates 1988
Oh yes. Let's have Biden come up with something original. It wouldn't be the first time he's plaigarized!
I was just pointing out that the argument is being made the Palin is a "stand in" for disaffected Dems who were Hillary supporters...and that in no way does Palin measure up to Hillary.
VP Debates: Will Biden have to wear kid glove or will Palin have to put on her boxing gloves?

So I want to see all the candidates act like they are debating for the future of our country and be tough. What do you think?
Kid gloves? This is the Most Powerful nation on the Planet. The Greatest Economy and a Military second to none. We put Senator's Obama, Clinton, McCain, Biden, Congressman Ron Paul, Governor Romney, and everyone else through the wringer. Kid Gloves?
lol
Americans don't hire politician's who have been treated with Kid Gloves....My God,
What would Tim Russert say if he were here right Now!!
