But Pawlenty, 48, may seem too young and inexperienced when measured against Biden, 65, who was elected to the U.S. Senate in 1972 — when the governor was just 12 years old.

During his service in the Senate, Biden has become a respected voice on foreign affairs. President Bush called him for advice after the Sept. 11 attacks.

Biden also is a two-time presidential candidate and a skilled sparring partner with years of practice against Republicans in the upper chamber — experiences that have given him a familiarity with partisan debate on the national stage that Pawlenty lacks.


A nationally televised Biden-Pawlenty debate “is unthinkable,” said one Republican insider.

1. True, its unthinkable
But wasn't the Gore/Bush debates too?

But seriously I don't think they are concerned about the debate. After all they can spin it or ignore it. Or they can have some hack with a focus group make some bullshit up.

It'll still be well worth watching. :popcorn:

2. Biden would eat Pawlenty alive
He's ALMOST as empty a suit as Norm Coleman.
