60 Minutes ran their interview with Obama and Biden last Sunday. They're quite a contrast - Obama carefully disciplined on talking points, Biden really loose. When asked about his plagiarism, Biden launched into how he was young and arrogant, didn't think he needed to prepare -- seemed to be just getting started when Obama cut him off to get back on a message not defined by the negative question.

In the coming debate with Palin, Biden's experience won't help him much if he gets bogged down in minutiae. Think she'll shy away from bringing up his plagiarism?
