Summary: LOS ANGELES (MarketWatch) -- A confident, folksy, smiling Sarah Palin went toe-to-toe with a restrained Joe Biden Thursday night in a spirited, yet polite debate between the 2008 vice-presidential candidates, covering topics ranging from the current economic crisis to where the central war on terror is located. ST. LOUIS (Reuters) - Republican Sarah Palin and Democrat Joe Biden share the same stage in a vice presidential debate on Thursday, but the spotlight will be on the untested Palin as she tries to ease doubts about whether she is up to the job.
