Biden "has to watch himself"
---

He doesn't want to appear too "forceful" with her.
That is the word from the MSM regarding the upcoming debate with Palin.

I thought she was a tough "pit bull", a "Maverick", and a elk skinner who hunts in the snow?

Am I hallucinating here?
Is this real?

3. Yup, double standard.
Sometimes it works in our favor, sometimes it doesn't.

If we just keep it real, on issues, not personal, Joe should do very well.

:hi:

5. Screw that
With all the photos of her hunting, or with a semi-automatic rifle in her hands, I say take her down so hard she regrets ever leaving Moosejaw.

7. I say he rips
off her lips, climbs down her throat, and eats her heart out. Virtually, of course.

8. Yep, it's real and the likes of Andrea Mitchel and Gregory started pushing
it in moment one.

Sadly, women are not pushing this back into their grills with a vengeance. A little sexism in any woman's favor, draws little ire.

10. Motherhood and apple pie- the whole "hockey mom" bit sets her up as
a sympathetic figure. It's a trap, and Joe has to stay focused on the issues and keep the debate cerebral.

11. This is old news....Biden has to do what Biden has to do...
I don't think anyone but Obama needs to tell him how to be. This is the talking points of the media. Fuck them. She wants in this race, she can stand up and take it.

13. BS! Joe is the best I've seen at slamming his opponent with a smile!
He knows how to deal with Carabou Barbie! He won't look like he's being unfair or slamming her because she won't even know it's happening until she's down and out!

14. Republicans and the media have declared that we have to play according to "girls' rules" with her...
Women everywhere with any pride should be incensed by that.

15. He needs to play nice until she messes up a couple times, then makes her
first pitbull snarl.

If she starts the confrontation, Biden can step in without criticism. After all, she started it. Right?

Joe has a lot on his shoulders on this one. Go, Joe!

16. Jut wait till that rabid poodle meets a REAL pitbull.
Maybe he'll make her cry.

But if she can't handle pressure from HIM, how the hell can she handle al qaeda or Russia?

17. If she attacks him first, it's fair game
If she plays nice, Biden has to watch out, but if she dishes it out, she better be able to take it. Real leaders don't expect special treatment.

19. She already attacked him, it's all fair game... you wanna play with the big boys? Then get with the
game, isn't that what she said about Hillary? Well, turnabout it fair freaking play. She's already put her pitbull out there for all to see, total fair game from both Biden and Obama...

18. Yet Ferraro had to "watch herself" back in 1984
So that she wouldn't be thought of as an uppity bitch.

Notice how the "liberal" MSM always turns it against the Dems? :mad:

20. Heads They Win, Tails We Lose
The Repiglickin' media will declare her the "winner" of any debate, no matter what actually happens there.
If Biden mops the floor with her, they will attack him for being mean.
If he doesn't, they will attack him for being weak and praise her for being … (I can't go on, I'm gonna :puke:)
