A few people have e-mailed to say that the livestream in Ed’s open thread complicates comment discussion by slowing refresh times, so here’s a no-frills alternative. Take your pick.

While we wait for the main event, “enjoy” the last installment in her series with Couric. They saved a doozy for the finale.

Game face!

Ordinary1 on October 2, 2008 at 10:09 PM

ugh, palin can be a little annoying with the shoulder shrugs.

anna on October 2, 2008 at 10:09 PM

Wouldn’t it be sweet to be on the NYT headlines “Osama Caught!”…tomorrow?

lsutiger on October 2, 2008 at 10:09 PM

How can someone discussing ANWR be so damn sexy?

carbon_footprint on October 2, 2008 at 10:10 PM

SCGOPgirl on October 2, 2008 at 10:10 PM

Ordinary1 on October 2, 2008 at 10:10 PM

custer on October 2, 2008 at 10:10 PM

Tim Burton on October 2, 2008 at 10:10 PM

I’m totally hot for her right now as well.

CookeyD on October 2, 2008 at 10:10 PM

He wants out of Iraq immediately and into darfur??

Tim Zank on October 2, 2008 at 10:10 PM

She’s not good at this. Biden goes on and on with lies and more lies.

Palin isn’t really challenging his BS.

She’s been ducking questions to recite her script.

This isn’t good.

She’s gotten better as the debate goes on, but still…… not good.

toliver on October 2, 2008 at 10:10 PM

ugh, Biden’s smirks ………

Benjamin9 on October 2, 2008 at 10:10 PM

anna on October 2, 2008 at 10:09 PM

Don’t be a hater! ; P

carbon_footprint on October 2, 2008 at 10:10 PM

…a little bit of Wasilla main street….

…she’s ON…she’s wipin’ the floor with him….

Puritan1648 on October 2, 2008 at 10:10 PM

This woman is wonderful…

Spirit of 1776 on October 2, 2008 at 10:10 PM

Get rid of greed and corruption on Wall St. AND in Washington. Glad she’s hitting Congress. MAINSTREET WASILLA.

OMFG I AM LOVING THIS SET BY HER RIGHT NOW.

AAHHHH. My head just exploded.

jimmy the notable on October 2, 2008 at 10:10 PM

She’s going for the 90% demographic that hates Congress. Perfect

econavenger on October 2, 2008 at 10:10 PM

carbon_footprint on October 2, 2008 at 10:10 PM

it’s that mouth. yum.

madmonkphotog on October 2, 2008 at 10:10 PM

She’s beating his @$$ like a rented mule. She’s whipping him like he owes her money.

Django on October 2, 2008 at 10:10 PM

Gwen let him go.

Ordinary1 on October 2, 2008 at 10:11 PM

Lol. She just said the pundits are going to prove Biden a liar in the am. Ouch.

Spirit of 1776 on October 2, 2008 at 10:07 PM

I love it!

mikeyboss on October 2, 2008 at 10:11 PM

I am confused. What are the rules to this debate? Biden seems to go first and last on almost every topic.

bigtallgoo on October 2, 2008 at 10:11 PM

dork

CinnamongirlUF on October 2, 2008 at 10:11 PM

YES! She’s going off on DC!

ErinF on October 2, 2008 at 10:11 PM

hahaha, joe spends a lot of time at home depot. bwah!

anna on October 2, 2008 at 10:11 PM

She’s gorgeous and is connecting directly with the American People. She’s one of us.

Joe is part of the problem.

techno_barbarian on October 2, 2008 at 10:11 PM

Biden talked in minute detail about implementing the late Barry’s policies. Sarah talked about principles. She is using this question really well

EnglishMike on October 2, 2008 at 10:11 PM

Biden goes to Home Depot?!!!

jencab on October 2, 2008 at 10:11 PM

Biden hangs out at Home Depot, right.

BuckeyeSam on October 2, 2008 at 10:11 PM

anna, check’s in the mail

james23 on October 2, 2008 at 10:11 PM

why doesn’t she say that socialism sucks?

Benjamin9 on October 2, 2008 at 10:11 PM

Joe….W isn’t running this time…

Tim Zank on October 2, 2008 at 10:11 PM

Joe’s neighborhood hearts government

econavenger on October 2, 2008 at 10:11 PM

“old steel town. Scranton.”

DRINK.

jimmy the notable on October 2, 2008 at 10:11 PM

Your neighbor is Washington, Joe. That’s the problem.

Spirit of 1776 on October 2, 2008 at 10:11 PM

Oh, bullsh**…you haven’t ever seen the inside of a Home Depot…

uncivilized on October 2, 2008 at 10:11 PM

Does Biden take a sip of Cognac between questions? He sounds like a drunk politician on the hustings.

JonPrichard on October 2, 2008 at 10:11 PM

I am confused. What are the rules to this debate? Biden seems to go first and last on almost every topic.

bigtallgoo on October 2, 2008 at 10:11 PM

I’ve been saying that all night

El_Terrible on October 2, 2008 at 10:11 PM

Make up your mind. Your neighborhood or your OLD neighborhood.

CookeyD on October 2, 2008 at 10:11 PM

so Alaskans don’t “get it”?

madmonkphotog on October 2, 2008 at 10:11 PM

Let me just say, Joe you’re looking foolish. Time for you to SIT DOWN.

Yeah my neighborhood in Scranton.

anniekc on October 2, 2008 at 10:11 PM

the people in my neighborhood… your neighborhood has been DC for the last 40 years.

anna on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

Did Biden just say he spends a lot of his time at… Home Depot?

Tzetzes on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

Joe “spends a lot of time at home depot”. LMAO

Guardian on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

Haha! The quote of the debate

carbon_footprint on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

Home Depot…Drink.

Over. Scanton

1GooDDaDDy on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

Dog gone it!!!

Tim Zank on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

say it ain’t so joe

SCGOPgirl on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

Sarahcuda!

Ordinary1 on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

Cant get near a TV.

Is Palin really doing that well??????????????

More importantly has Biden yelled anything like “GET THESE SQUIRRELS OFF ME!!!!!!!!” yet?

Chuck Schick on October 2, 2008 at 10:07 PM

Palin is not gaffing. Some of it sounds scripted, but she’s presenting it well. She’s not falling into filibustering as much, which is good. Still seems shallow, but I didn’t expect her to win on foreign policy especially.

Bottom line, she’s not an idiot, but Biden is winning.

Tommygun on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

So Greasy Joe spends time a ‘LOT’ of time at Home Depot…bagging nails I suppose…hahahahaha!

AUINSC on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

El_Terrible on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

tickleddragon on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

SCRRRRRRRRRRR-AAAAAAAAAAAAANTON!

EnglishMike on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

Doggonit Joe — Love it

InTheBellyoftheBeast on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

LOL

She is kicking his hinder, i LOVE Palin!!

Jewels on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

Say it Ain’t So Joe. There you go again.
Reaganesque.

jencab on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

toliver on October 2, 2008 at 10:10 PM

MSM will call him on it tomorrow…yeah right…

Static21 on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

*neighborhood, not neighbor

“Say it ain’t so Joe” – baseball fan swoons.

Love the looking back line, I hope it sticks ’cause it’s true.

Spirit of 1776 on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

20 minutes left, cross your fingers. She’s won hands down so far.

repvoter on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

She’s gorgeous and is connecting directly with the American People. She’s one of us.

Joe is part of the problem.

“Say it ain’t so, joe. There you go again.”

Excellent.

techno_barbarian on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

I think she is clearly doing well in this debate … could be a grand slam. She is well studied … and isn’t shying away from any topics. He by contrast, is looking ruffled.

HondaV65 on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

JOe, come down to MBNA with me…
Sarah, ah say it ain’t so, Joe, funny
I think joe actually likes her. how can you not?

james23 on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

I am seriously LOLing!!! Gotta luv it! I am waiting for her to say “GIT ‘ER DONE!”

lsutiger on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

Joe Biden is now in plumming supplies for questions at Home Depot!

DailyTrackingPoll on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

“Say it ain’t so, there you go again, Joe.”

Sarah H. Reagan

dugan on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

We need to put Palin on the top of the ticket!!!

John Doe on October 2, 2008 at 10:13 PM

she’s on a debate high. she knows she whopped his butt!

SCGOPgirl on October 2, 2008 at 10:13 PM

They let her be her, thank god.

gator70 on October 2, 2008 at 10:13 PM

Bottom line, she’s not an idiot, but Biden is winning.
Tommygun on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

Wrong, turn off your tv.

Bishop on October 2, 2008 at 10:13 PM

I hear Wasilla Home Depot’s carry ammo …

Benjamin9 on October 2, 2008 at 10:13 PM

“There you go again!” -Reagan in a dress

YYYYYEEEEESSSSS

InTheBellyoftheBeast on October 2, 2008 at 10:13 PM

Say it ain’t so, Joe. The allusion to Joe Jackson of the Chicago Black Sox, Obama’s team, shouldn’t be lost.

Extra credit for watching the debate. You can’t buy that.

BuckeyeSam on October 2, 2008 at 10:13 PM

more good moves. point out what does not work.

madmonkphotog on October 2, 2008 at 10:13 PM

Yea…!

Dritanian on October 2, 2008 at 10:13 PM

Somebody do a photoshop Joe at Home Depot. Stat.

Guardian on October 2, 2008 at 10:13 PM

She’s good- giving the shout out to the third graders. Old Joe is sunk and there’s no more air for him.

anniekc on October 2, 2008 at 10:13 PM

She’s winning this debate hands down. Biden’s on defense and she’s cool calm and collected.

techno_barbarian on October 2, 2008 at 10:13 PM

Joe at Home Depot.. I think NOT… hahahahahahaha

theeyeman3410 on October 2, 2008 at 10:13 PM

Bottom line, she’s not an idiot, but Biden is winning.

Tommygun on October 2, 2008 at 10:12 PM

Hahahaha…right.

capitalist piglet on October 2, 2008 at 10:13 PM

I know…I keep watching the clock, too.

dmarie on October 2, 2008 at 10:13 PM

She made him laugh as she was slamming him! She’s awesome!
I think the MSM will have a tough time spinning this in his favor.

ErinF on October 2, 2008 at 10:13 PM

“Say it ain’t so Joe!”

Home run, Palin!

CanuckInPA on October 2, 2008 at 10:13 PM

15 minutes to go, and I am already taking my *sigh* of relief. Palin just won, Biden breaking rules of the debate to make a point after Palin made her statement.

All I was hoping for. Hey McCain advisor’s, get out of Palin’s way. OK? Do yourselve’s and us a favor.

Hog Wild on October 2, 2008 at 10:13 PM

Ifill zings Biden again.

SouthernGent on October 2, 2008 at 10:14 PM

Palin owns this ampitheatre.

CanadianGuy on October 2, 2008 at 10:14 PM

LOL she is killing him!

carbon_footprint on October 2, 2008 at 10:14 PM

Is there an airforce in Darfur that we need to institute a no fly zone to ground them? I wasn’t aware of that.

MarkABinVA on October 2, 2008 at 10:04 PM

I read that they have some helicopter gunships, some fighters. Could probably squash their air force in 10 minutes.

ThePrez on October 2, 2008 at 10:14 PM

A mutual laugh. That was classy and great moment.

Spirit of 1776 on October 2, 2008 at 10:14 PM

Lame attempt at a joke!

HAHAHAHAHA

Jewels on October 2, 2008 at 10:14 PM

She;s killing!

Guardian on October 2, 2008 at 10:14 PM

oh shit nobody got joe’s joke! awesomeness they name is sara!

anna on October 2, 2008 at 10:14 PM

God, she’s killing him, PALIN PALIN PALIN

El_Terrible on October 2, 2008 at 10:14 PM

THAT was good, Sarah!!

Static21 on October 2, 2008 at 10:14 PM

Sweet! She connects with a joke!

yo on October 2, 2008 at 10:14 PM

I think Joe has found a new respect for Saeah.

Over.
