Well it appears that the final details of the debate have been negotiated, and after much whining, I’m sure, the McCain campaign got a bubble for Palin:

At the insistence of the McCain campaign, the Oct. 2 debate between the Republican nominee for vice president, Gov. Sarah Palin, and her Democratic rival, Senator Joseph R. Biden Jr., will have shorter question-and-answer segments than those for the presidential nominees, the advisers said. There will also be much less opportunity for free-wheeling, direct exchanges between the running mates.

Biden will still destroy her, the only question is whether she loses it on stage, and if she does, whether Sarah “Barracuda” Palin goes after him with a knife or a gun.

I mean, after, this woman got completely Pwn3d by Charlie Gibson, which is like being gored by Bambi.
