    It still frightens me to think about.

    Curious you and Dark Sage are frightened to think of Palin but do you share the same fright for Biden? I mean you had the guy who said things like this during and before the campaign.

    "You cannot go to a 7-11 or a Dunkin' Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent.... I'm not joking." --Joe Biden, in a private remark to an Indian-American man caught on C-SPAN

    "Hillary Clinton is as qualified or more qualified than I am to be vice president of the United States of America. Quite frankly, it might have been a better pick than me." --Joe Biden, speaking at a town hall meeting in Nashua, New Hampshire

    "Stand up, Chuck, let 'em see ya." –-Joe Biden, to Missouri state Sen. Chuck Graham, who is in a wheelchair, Columbia, Missouri

    "When the stock market crashed, Franklin D. Roosevelt got on the television and didn't just talk about the, you know, the princes of greed. He said, 'Look, here's what happened." –Joe Biden, apparently unaware that FDR wasn't president when the stock market crashed in 1929 and that only experimental TV sets were in use at that time,

    "Look, John's last-minute economic plan does nothing to tackle the number-one job facing the middle class, and it happens to be, as Barack says, a three-letter word: jobs. J-O-B-S, jobs." --Joe Biden, Athens, Ohio

    Joe Biden wouldn't have done comedy routines on Saturday Night Live.

    Joe Biden wouldn't have let his daughter appear on ridiculous reality TV shows like Dancing With the Stars, which were rigged in her favor.

    Joe Biden, basically, would not have made a complete and utter fool of himself and his family, something that Palin has done admirably.

    "Vice President Joe Biden made his third appearance on NBC's "The Tonight Show With Jay Leno" Friday night and, as usual, he didn't disappoint. "

    No, but Obama did.

    "Oh how things have changed for Barack Obama since he last appeared on "Saturday Night Live.""

    So Biden would have made decisions for his adult daughter for her? Telling her what she could and couldn't do?

    So your complaints about Palin is that she appeared on the Tonight Show, and "forced" her daughter to do a dancing routine. Neither of these things really do with the 2008 campaign.
