45 Minutes To Go

Not long now before the veep debate. I'm fully expecting Palin to perform better than she has in her interviews. In fact, I'm expecting her to "win" the night, just by beating the expectations created by those interviews. 

I hope Biden is able to outshine her and not do anything damning, but here's the beauty: Palin can rock, Biden can suck ass, and it won't, in all likelihood, affect the election. Historically, veep debates don't make a damn bit of a diff to how the election turns out (think Bentsen-Quayle). This year has been full of surprises, but I don't think this will be one of them. 

So, my prediction for the night is, Palin holds her own and it gets called as a win for her. And a week from now, no one cares.
