WHY the hell should Joe go easy on Sarah? I sure don't remember anyone
saying anyone should go easy on Hillary!

If their reason for the "go easy" caution is because she's a WOMAN, or because she just hasn't been in the national spotlight before, then how the hell can they claim she's READY TO BE POTUS???????????????????

I'm getting really tired of this sh*t real quick!

3. Well Putin will surely go easy on her.. and Chavez, and Kim Jung Il.. and everyone else in the world
who sees America as an adversary or a competitor.

Why not Joe???

10. It is BULLSPIT, and I have seen this act a dozen times already
A "panel" or whatever it is,

1) One says, basically, all Palin has to do is not pass out, and they will say she won because THEIR expectations are so low
2) Another one says, BIDEN BETTER BE CAREFUL, so if she gets her butt handed to her, they get to say he bullied her

WTF IS EITHER OF THESE?

It NEVER GOD DARNED ENDS with these jaggoffs.

As people noted in this string, this crackpot has been hand picked to be second in line to being the most powerful person on the planet, and somehow it makes sense to these arshats to BOTH give her a handicap going in AND handcuff her opponent.

IF this was a FOR REAL, Biden would be able to tear her to shreds, and they would say as such, and report it for what it was.

GOD DARN IT, it just NEVER ends with these jaggoffs.

4. he wont really have to do anything with regards to her
she just wont be able to debate the issues like he does.

but what i worry about is if the moderator starts making the debate about things like God, abortion and other bs ratherthan actual issues. this will allow her to go off on some bs answer that appeals to the moron crowd that votes on god.

5. Because Hillary can take it
Republicans are relying on Hollywood myths to sell Palin. That shes "Mr Deeds" and "Mr Smith" who have a hard time dealing with rough city folk.

9. Well, all I can say is that I entered the workforce in the early 60's,
and not only did nobody take it easy on me, but as a woman, I had to fight better than the men just to be recognized as being capable! I resent anyone saying she should get special treatment because she's female! If she can handle the job, then SHOW IT! If she can't, then get the hell out of the way! This current special treatment BS makes me feel like I'm back in the 60's and everything I tHOUGHT was accomplished WASN'T!

11. Biden is such a skilled debater that he could leave half his brain at home on debate night
and still outdebate a lightweight like Palin.

13. He could do that, OR before hand Hillary could ask "Why do they want
HER to be handled with kid gloves when they sure didn't do that for ME?"
