Thought about upcoming Biden-Palin debate

Wednesday Oct 01, 2008

At first I was planning to title this blog post "Campaign advice to Obama/Biden", but then I decided to put away some of those thoughts that anyone actually would read this blog post ;-)

What I do want to mention is that following some of the Palin interviews and videos that I have seen in the past few days, I have a feeling that Biden might be tempted to go for the all-out victory in the debate.  Given Palin's track record in these interviews, I can assume that Biden will "win" the debate, even though Team McCain is probably brainwashing Palin right now.

But what would a "win" be worth if that means belittleing, humuliating or embarrasing Palin to the point where the sympathy vote might become an issue.  If he goes for the kill, I think the actual "winner" of the debate might be a surprise come Nov 4.

My feeling is that Biden should not be trying to point out the fact that Palin might not be competent or intelligent enough to become the VP.  Let's face it, 2000 and 2004 have shown that intelligence and competence are not really an important factor in electing a president...

Good point at the end there. I think Biden should stick to his ticket's stance on issues and let Palin dig her own grave.

American voters will indeed have to decide if they want imcompetance at the top or bottom of the ticket this election.
