VP Debate - does anyone really care

On a normal presidential election cycle does anyone truly care about these. Because of who Palin is, adds a lot of interest but still does it even matter?

It will likely be a more entertaining debate, because as far as making opinionated statements Palin is entirely gunshy and Biden is a machine gunner on full auto.

Frankly, the American election system is a recurrent miracle in that at least sometimes the right sort of people struggle through the quagmire obstacle course and get elected.

Unfortunately this Presidential race isn't one of those times for either party as far as I see.

i watched it (it just finished)
mostly just because I was curious if palin would eat it like she did in her previous interview or make herself out to not be an idiot.
she did the latter... i'm happy about that i think
