Palin Says She Is Looking Forward to Debate



COLUMBUS, Ohio – “So I guess it’s my turn now,’’ Gov. Sarah Palin of Alaska told a rally here Monday, saying that she looked forward to her big debate this week.

“And I do look forward to Thursday night, and debating Senator Joe Biden,’’ said Ms. Palin, whose uneven performance in interviews and unscripted events have sown seeds of doubt in recent days among some conservative commentators who support her.

“I’m looking forward to meeting him, too,’’ she said. “I’ve never met him before, but I’ve been hearing about his Senate speeches since I was in, like, second grade.’’

“I have to admit, though, he’s a great debater, and he looks pretty doggone confident, like he’s sure he’s going to win,’’ Ms. Palin, 44, said of Mr. Biden, 65. “But then again, this is the same Senator Biden who said the other day that University of Delaware would trounce the Ohio State Buckeyes. Wrong!”

The top half of the Republican ticket, Senator John McCain, continued to press his new populist themes, saying that the financial crisis was the result of “mistakes made in Wall Street and evil and greed in Washington.”

8. Oh, she cracks me up...
This is obviously a preview of what we'll see.

She'll play the part of the shucky-darn-Ellie-May-Clampet hayseed, delivering a steady stream
of degrading insults, personal slams and infuriating lies.

"Golly Gee Joe! Whatsammatter??"

Listen up, Biden...be ready for it!
