Sarah Palin Biden Debate Topics and Features
Biden is known for often displaying his emotion, and he does so when he works into an answer the tragedy he endured shortly after he first won his Senate seat in 1972: the death of his wife and daughter in a car accident.
His two young sons, though seriously injured, survived and Biden said he learned over the next few years what it was like to be a single parent.
As he related the story, he paused, his eyes appearing to moisten somewhat.
He then interjects a gender element into the dialogue, saying he would dispute anyone who would say he couldn’t understand such family stresses because he is a man.
Biden, a senator since 1973, is trying to establish his “just folks” credentials by mentioning a restaurant in 
his hometown in Wilmington, Del., and his childhood roots in Scranton, Pa.
Ask anyone in those communities about the last eight years of Republican rule in the White House, he says, and the verdict would be clear:
“The middle class has gotten the short end. The wealthy have done very well.”
“Can I call you Joe?” Sarah Palin asks Joe Biden at the outset of the debate.
“I like being able to answer these tough questions without the filter even of the mainstream media telling viewers what they’ve just heard,” Sarah Palin says in her 
debate closer. “John McCain and I, we’re going to fight for America… I’ve been there, I know what the hurts are… We have to fight for our freedoms also, economic and our national security freedoms.
“There is only one man in this race who has ever really fought for you,” Palin says, “and that was John McCain.”
“Look folks, this is the most important election you’ve ever voted for in your entire life,” Joe Biden says.
“There is a need for fundamental change… Barack Obama and I don’t measure progress toward that change by how much regulation we’ve got and how much CEOs are getting paid…
“In the neighborhood I grew up in it was all about dignity and respect,” Biden says. “We believed it and we did. That’s why Barack Obama and I are running, to reestablish that certitude in our neighborhoods.”
