I KNOW this has been mentioned before...but I'm having a memory lapse.

When will the VP debate take place?

LOL, me too. Although I was never a huge Hillary fan.

Okay, thanks, I did find the info.

Its going to be interesting either way.

In the past months, McCain has had to be easy on Obama for being called a "racist" if he were too harsh.

Now that the gloves are off, and Palin can play the "sexist" card, Obamatrons will get a taste of their own medicine.

I'm looking forward to this as well. However I do not think that if Obama had choose Hillary they would have taken Balin. They did that because he didn't take HIllary. The talk is about Palin not MCcain which is really sad he is the top of the ticket. Now the story will show is Palin is ever able to speak to the press like the rest of them. I heard last night that she is going home to say good bye to her son. That is understandable. On her trip back she is being given information to study about the issues McCain supports. She took the position and now she has to study those. Well it will be interesting both debates.

I think that's kind of a stretch. If McCain compares Obama to Jesse Jackson, then yes that's racist, but simply pointing out inconsistencies or differences of opinion is not going to be called out as racist. However, if Biden goes at Palin the same way he would go after a man with a similar resume, the media and many women would go after him. It's unfair because he has to fight with one hand tied behind his back. Hopefully the questions will be enough for her to dig her own hole, so that we can all see that the pitbull in lipstick is not suitable for VP.

It will be a while before they debate. Palin needs to be brought up to speed on everything but oil. They are going to need to arm her with something other than un-funny one liners and corny jokes about pit bulls and hockey moms (my answer to what is the difference is that I would vote for a pit bull).

The VP debate is Oct 2 from Washington University in St. Louis. I am looking forward to the match up.

Biden is a seasoned pro. He won't make it look like poor little hockey mom Sarah is being "picked on" by the boys. More than likely, he'll allow her to dig herself into a hole.
