The stage is set for Joe Biden to go "Governor Palin, you are no Hillary Clinton" - invoke the famous line from the Bentsen-Quayle debate in 1988.
In the meantime, ZDNet reports you cannot get into the page of the Governor on the State of Alaska web site.
I say the stage is set for the Russians to annex Alaska with the leader away. Georgia reported similar denial of service problems before its recent invasion.
I know - I need to stay away from political TV and Clancy books this long weekend :)
