I cannot fucking wait to see Biden tear Palin to shreds in a debate

"You know, Mrs. Palin, never once did I consider tucking my tail between my legs and seceding from the United States."

1. Never underestimate the bias of low expectations

Also you have to figure in the difference in tactics. Our candidate is going to play to reason. She is going to appeal to emotions. Completely different tactics. It may turn into a crap shoot. The problem is the audience not the candidates.

2. I wouldn't underestimate her

she could easily portray Biden as a flip-flopper on Iraq.

9. Welcome to DU! Watch out for falling stones....

:)

10. Welcome to DU - I see a pizza in your future

Flip-flopper? McCain is the worst flip-flopper of all time ... they don't dare open that door.

And Palin hasn't even had a flip to flop

12. How? She was a member of a secessionist group. Enough said. n/t

[PermanentRevolution]

3. Sadly, we may never see it...

It really doesn't look good for her to make it that far. Still, Biden vs. Huckabee has potential...

[Norrin Radd]

4. He'll be natural, she'll sound scripted.

I imagine they'll give her the questions -- or give her handlers -- the questions way in advance.

5. NEVER HAPPEN. There will be no VP debates to expose her

for the ignorant fraud and poser she is.

[Muttocracy]

6. all Biden has to do is go after McCain, answer the questions, and ignore her. nt

[WA98296]

7. I'm sure they have the questions already. Who is handling the debate?

[im1013]

8. What if....

she drops out AFTER the vp debate? Nobody expects her to even come close to
winning against Biden, anyway.

Then...whoever replaces her doesn't even have to debate Biden at all before the election!?

That way, there's no real possibility of Biden calling them out to their face on national tv!



Hmmmmmm......

[vaberella]

11. Let's hope it gets that far for our own amusement. Although I doubt it. n/t

[totodeinhere]

13. No, don't say that. We have got to play the expectations game.

Palin is known in Alaska to be a fairly good debater. That's what we need to emphasize. Then when Obama mops up the floor with her the media will spin it as a victory for Biden. But if advance expectations for Biden are too high, then the MSM will spin it as a Palin victory as long as she doesn't make a total fool out of herself.

14. maybe....

1) If Biden gets tough and in Palin's face and scores points all over her....All the media will say he's a bully, sexist, mean and women should reconsider voting not for the Dems.

2) If Biden goes easy on her, and Palin comes out looking great, Biden loses.

3) If Biden goes gently on her and still wins the debate, the press will say what can one expect her to do against an experience debater like Joe Biden. "She did Great..after all she's a republican.

4) It's going to take a masterful slow- down relaxation necessary for my man Biden - to overcome the republican media bullshit - And the republicans know this,
