Is Biden Ready for Tonight’s Vice Presidential Debate?

By Paulette on  From letustalk.wordpress.com
Since Sarah Palin pretty much called herself a pit-bull during her acceptance speech at the RNC does that make Biden the ‘dog catcher’ and will Joe be able to round-up and put away the so called pit-bull?   Palin and Biden is scheduled to face off tonight in one of the most highly anticipated vice-presidential debates in history, giving voters a chance to directly compare the two. Biden has been in the US senate since 1972 and must heed his tendency to lapse into confusing verbosity...Read Full Story

Sarah Palin Biden Debate Topics and Features

Written on  From yardloo.com
Biden is known for often displaying his emotion, and he does so when he works into an answer the tragedy he endured shortly after he first won his Senate seat in 1972: the death of his wife and daughter in a car accident. His two young sons, though seriously injured, survived and Biden said he learned over the next few years what it was like to be a single parent. As he related the story, he paused, his eyes appearing to moisten somewhat. He then interjects a gender element into the...Read Full Story

Was THAT A Vice Presidential ‘Debate’?

By Paulette on  From letustalk.wordpress.com
Palin came out swinging.  I have to give her credit for fighting for her party - she held her own.  But Palin didn’t debate, she came with talking points and we were going to hear them whether or not we asked her about them.  Forget the rules; she was going to get out her talking points come hell or high water!  Palin asked herself her own questions and answered her own questions – especially about energy, energy, energy, amazing!  I believe that Palin had a personal victory since she did...Read Full Story

The Mirror of The Culture War: Biden vs. Palin

By DanV on  From thedevilanddanvojir.blogspot.com
Or Good vs. Not-So-Good I know that some of this ground has been covered before, but after the Biden-Palin debate, I wanted to revisit it, research it, and emphasize it. I believe that Obama picked Biden for his forthrightness and knowledge of foreign affairs. I also believe that Palin was hastily chosen as a "sign" to the Right Wing Christians. The rallies for McCain-Palin have proven that the radical right needs to vent its frustrations, and not in any respectful way. The rhetoric that...Read Full Story

Did We All See The Same Biden/ Palin Debate?

By barbarany_9 on  From barbarany_9.blogspot.com
Didya see the Palin/ Biden Debate? I did. And Palin cleared wiped the floor with Biden. I was fearful that Biden's suppsed experience and expertise would make Palin look like the Bimbo they keep trying to paint her as or the harpy they painted Hillary as. I was wrong! PHEW!! But then... I decided to listen to some talk radio. Both on the Right and The Left. All I can say is, "OMG are we all on the same planet? Did we all see the SAME debate?" My head is spinning from the spin. I need to lay...Read Full Story

About That V.P. Debate, Sort Of

By Redmanthatcould on  From behindthehype.com
The first and only  Vice Presidential Debate  between Democrat Joe Biden and Republican Sarah Palin ,  unsurprisingly garnered a lot more “hype”, if you will, than the first Presidential Debate one week prior. I’ll be taking on the task of getting behind that hype.   Foreign Policy? Let me just find my Alaska state map...   It only stands to reason that America at large would be interested in this Debate , as it pitted the bat-shit crazy and mind-numbingly inexperienced Sarah Palin...Read Full Story

Polls Declare Biden Debate Winner....McCain Concedes Michigan!

By Ryan517 on  From votemecool.blogspot.com
Its Official Folks! Several Polls declare Senator Joe Biden (Del) the winner of the 2008 Veep Debate. Did you doubt that it was possible? I must admit that I was a little shaky there for a moment. However as always Biden pulled it off. Let's just say that the McCain-Palin ticket holds too much of a risk for the American Voters in such shaky times. Can't say I blame them. As an observer of the debate now I clearly understand why Joe was so "nice" to Gov. Palin and instead focused his " Attack...Read Full Story

The Biden - Palin Debate

By nelha69 on  From roschellenelson.blogspot.com
It's rare that the undercard is as eagerly awaited as the title bout. But in this election, the vice presidential debate could be such a match-up. Politics prior to this election were never at the top of my list of major concerns. Like most Americans I became a bit more focused around election time and then my interest in the day to day Washington circus of stars would generally diminish until election time again. This monumental campaign has been different. I've immersed myself in the issues...Read Full Story

Saturday Night Live IS BACK!

By TPath on  From thesarahpalinblog.com
Tina Fey was Sarah Palin was wonderful again on Saturday Night Live. The skit about the Vice Presidential Debate, the highest rated in history, was the best part of tonight's show. The Presidential election has made SNL relevant again and they know it. This Thursday there will be an SNL one hour Prime Time Special all about politics. I was wrong. It wasn't Darrell Hammond who ended up playing Joe Biden. It was Jason Sudeikis who was great. He had the big, over used smile down and, as expected...Read Full Story

Who Won Biden-Palin Debate? Was Biden Too Nice? (Video)

By Ryan517 on  From votemecool.blogspot.com
Who do you think won tonight's Vice-Presidential debate between Senator Joe Biden (D) and Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R) ? Was Biden being too nice to her? I don't know, it appears as if he were afraid to really bring it full force. Palin sure didn't seem to have a problem with playing " dirty ". She was charming, strong and repeatedly threw some of Biden's previous negative comments about Obama's ability to lead back in his face. Do you think that Joe's " niceness " may cause the Obama-Biden...Read Full Story

When debate host Gwen Ifill asked Palin whether she supported capping carbon emissions, her answer was unequivocal: "I do," she said. "I do." Yet, when President Obama attempted to implement this policy, she turned around and opposed it vociferously.

The last presidential election featured Barack Obama debating John McCain. There were none of the game-changing fireworks that occurred in previous debates, and indeed the vice presidential debate caught more interest. Nevertheless, the general ...
