Biden won't NEED to pull any punches in the debate.
All he needs to do is demonstrate that tremendous brain and understanding of his, and he'll leave her in the dust. No offense to Ms. Palin, but I seriously doubt that the finely-honed brain of a foreign policy expert lies under that well-coiffed visage. Maybe she could beat him in a debate about moose-hunting, but anything else? Biden will clean up the place, appear presidential, and by simple comparison make her look like the featherweight she is.

1. Biden's attacks are fact-based, and that works just as well against her as anyone else. nt

7. Ifill claimed Edwards brought up "Mary Cheney is gay" without prompting.
Which is false.

Gwen Ifill will work against us, I can guarantee that.

3. I hope he's excruciatingly kind and polite to her as he soundly makes her
look like a fool.

4. Biden doesn't just know the names of all the world leaders, he KNOWS the world leaders.
This is so pathetic.

He must come in with all barrels blazing.
I won't expect less of him. After all, he debated HRC the entire pre-primary season.
He's ready!

5. I hope he gets in a one-liner-- with that twinkle in his eye and the
look of the proverbial cat who swallowed the canary-- irresistible!!
