Pretty Palin vs Smokin Joe

Tonight we have the chance to see Sarah Palin go to to toe with Joe Biden. My only issue with this evenings activities with be the moderator. Gwen Ifill the senior correspondent with the PBS News Hour is currently in the process of writing a book about Obama and the age of politics. The book is allegedly a favorable take on Obama and his sudden rise to political prominence. Ms. Ifill has in the past been a very 'in the middle' road journalist however recently she has demonstrated favorable support for Obama. The media has already declared Joe Biden, the rough and tough boxer turned lawyer/senator from the northeast, as the evening's presumptive winner. It is no surprise that papers like the NY Times have declared victory. The only comment about the Alaskan Governor is that she lacks experience. There is much more to Sarah Palin than a pretty face, let's face it she's hot. Now all those detractors will come out of their shells and say that was completely sexist. Remember how we had to endure the comments by female voters on how attractive Edwards and Clinton were? To top it off you had the picture of Al Gore on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine with the emphasis on his crotch during the 2000 campaign. I guess that is OK, but for there to be an extremely good looking female VP candidate and comments regarding such is a complete travesty, if you are a liberal. The billing for the VP debate should be Pretty Palin versus Smokin Joe and it should be held at Caesar's Palace.
