| #9 Yosemite, Palin's Couric interviews read (content) better than they watch; a lot was left on the cutting room floor. |

| #8 I just came across this tidbit at the NPR website, swksvolFF: Rather than having the candidates engage each other, the debate will be set up more like a dual conversation with the moderator, PBS journalist Gwen Ifill. |

| #7 What the trick will be is to get Govorner Palin to debate the moderator; gotta avoid that. |

| #6 We'll see. If past performance is an indicator, the Governor will be ok, even in a hostile environment. Apparently she did debates quite nicely when running for her current office. And it will be different for the honourable Senator Biden, who is used to being able to pose the gotcha questions, not having to answer in public, and with a limited time limit. |

| #5 As much as I like Palin, her performance during her two interviews were less then stunning. I want more from her but in reality I'm not expecting more. I think she will hold the line during the debate but will not propel forward. All Biden has to do is hold steady. They are ahead in the polls in every way and McCain is running a craptastic campaign. His trip to DC last week backfired and made him look inept. I'm pissed that he is not taking off the gloves and getting down to brass tacks. He seems tired and just going through the motions. Its going to be an interesting 4 years after the chosen one wins. |

| #4 That is the American way Big Jim so long as ACORN and like groups don't try to stuff the ballot box. |

| #3 There is no impartiality, anywhere. The only difference between them and me, is that I will accept the will of the majority and not be a crying little bitch about who wins. |

| #2 My fantasy is that Palin in the debate who the MSM consider an unsophisticated dunderhead from the sticks is nice during the debate but at the end she says: "Joe, here are your testicles back." Not with Gwen Ifill as moderator. She's so far in the tank for Obama (book deal, being one aspect), it's pathetic. Her GOP Convention post-Palin speech commentary was very indicative of where she's at politically. |
