" 'Media will swarm campus' is the headline this week in the student newspaper at Washington University in St. Louis where Democrat Joe Biden and Republican Sarah Palin are scheduled to kick off their much-anticipated vice presidential debate at 8 p.m. (CDT) Oct. 2, in the University's Athletic Complex.

FUN FACT:

Washington University held a lottery for students to enter to win tickets to attend this historic debate between Sen. Joe Biden(Delaware) and Gov. Sarah Pailin(Alaska). The number of students entered in the lottery was and 7,942 was not open to the public but only the students of the University. The lottery closed on September 26, 2008 and by 8 PM they were notified via E-mail of their status. The top 300 were able to stay in the pool for potential ticket holders. It is not clear how many(if any) students recieved tickets for the debate.

"I may not answer the questions how the moderator, and you Sen. Biden want to hear."
Pailin answered all the questions but things she did not want to answer, or did not have an answer for she simply worked around the question.

Opening words of Debate.


opinion:
I believe that both Biden, and Pailin stated their arguments very well. Neither candidates got angry which showed they could calmy speak about how strongly they feel about each veiw. Although Sarah Pailin refrenced her family quite a bit she showed the poeple that she is ready to be a Vice President and help lead this Country. Biden, was very strong in his answers and showed us all once again that he is very experience and prepared to take this roll.
