BIDEN VS. PALIN

Thursday, Thursday, Thursday!

He’s a train-riding hothead with a Donald Trump comb-over from the second smallest state of Delaware.

She’s a moose-hunting redneck, tongue-tied, Tina Fey look-a-like from the biggest state of Alaska.

And they’re going head-to-head for one night only from Washington University in St. Louis, MO.

THE DATE:  Thursday, October 2, 2008

THE MODERATOR:  Gwen Ifill from PBS

THE FOCUS:  A no holds-barred VP smack-down.

_____________________________________________

And here it is, for all you Debate Party maniacs —

Your official Drinking Game Initiative:

TAKE A SHOT (or a sip or however you do what you do) WHENEVER:

-Biden mentions his home state of Delaware

-Palin mentions her home state of Alaska or hometown of Wasilla

-Biden uses the phrase “more of the same”

-Palin refers to John McCain or herself as “mavericks”

-Biden refers to Palin’s “inexperience”

-Palin uses some quaint Dan Rather-like colloquialism that makes no sense or tells a folksy story to avoid the issues

-Either one of them talks about their kids or their sons serving in the military

-Either one pretends to know anything about the economy or offer solutions to the current meltdown

-The voting record of Obama or McCain is mentioned

-If the topic of discussion turns to energy, energy independence, or drilling for oil off-shore and in the North Slope of Alaska

-If the “bridge to nowhere” is mentioned

-If the term “community organizer” is mocked by Palin

-If Biden mocks the town of Wasilla or Alaska in reference to Palin’s credentials

-If the foreign policy credentials of either one becomes a topic of debate

-If either one of them lays claim to their running mate “reaching across the aisle”

-It’s a social if someone mentions a moose!

-Drink whatever is left if Biden loses his cool, steps down from the podium, and looks like he might walk across the stage and smack Palin across the face.
