You're probably right, Joe.
Everyone here probably knows that I'm not a fan of Palin at all, but it seems that her gaffes get a lot more attention than Bidens.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

If it was a gaff wouldn't that mean a big attack was imminent?

With Biden, you never know. He may have been referring to the band Massive Attack. They have no plans on being in the US any time soon. So he would actually be correct in that there will be no Massive Attack in the US in the near future.

The far Right's only purpose for Palin is because she gets a lot of PR. Having her do a keynote speech at any event will trigger massive publicity.

Palin is shadowed by controversy due to the reports from the McCain camp after the campaign and because of her public comments. Reporters flock to controversy.

Biden is expected to make gaffs (this doesn't make them acceptable). Where as just about any appearance by Palin gives the news stations hours of commentary - be it by FoxNews and how they agree with her, or CNN for how she's an idiot.

Yea, cause she's good looking. Were she not we wouldn't know her name, unless we moved to Alaska.
