Now that they've responded to the lipstick comment, it's time to lob another bomb.

[Orlandodem]

Throw something else at the Palin/McCain camp to keep them off message!!!

[npincus]

1. "If Palin can't take the heat, she should get out of one of McCain's 7 kitchens"

[MannyGoldstein]

5. LOL n/t

[Wetzelbill]

6. rimshot

:)

Well we know she kept the chef hired, so maybe she can just send her to the kitchen for awhile instead. :)

[BurtWorm]

24. McCain campaign responds: "Obama thinks a woman's place is in her 7 kitchens"

[Starbucks Anarchist]

36. Perfect.

:rofl:

[girl gone mad]

2. Keep them off of what message?

Endless distraction is all they've got.

[Marsala]

3. Nah, it's better to focus on the issues and point out that they are whining about insults n/t

[DrDan]

4. you are kidding, right?

that has allowed them to stay off-message

played right into their hands

[leftofcool]

7. Sure, maybe you could start another rumor about the Downs baby

[annabanana]

10. .

[Virginia Dare]

41. Get with it, that was YESTERDAY'S outrage...n/t

[Teaser]

8. I do like the idea of constant offense

I have no clue how to get Dems to internalize this message.

[annabanana]

9. I think the new Enquirer article might cause a few tongues to wag..

[iamjoy]

29. Just Disgusting

I glanced at the article to see that it was attacking the Palin children - really beyond the pale. (no specific reason for that metaphor).

I don't think this should be made into an issue.

I think we need to leave her family out of it. For one thing, I don't think it's right to attack her family. For another, I think it will backfire. Palin's family gets attacked, the sympathy factor goes up for her and we look bad (even if it isn't our fault). We waste time on stupid stuff like whether Trak or Bristol did coke, and we aren't talking about the issues that affect most Americans.

[annabanana]

34. jer-RY, jer-RY, jer-RY!! . . . . n/t

[Ganja Ninja]

11. Ignore their fained outrage and move on.

Notice how Obama's comment was in reference to the GOP's record of the last 8 years and they immediately tried to change the subject back to Palin? Keep hitting them on the record of the last 8 years. That's what they desperately want to avoid.

[Proud Liberal Dem]

12. Palin: "Unprepared to interview, unprepared to LEAD"

That seems to me like it could make for a good ad.

[liberalla]

22. I think you have a GREAT one there.

Palin: "Unprepared to interview, unprepared to LEAD"


How can she represent us if she can't even hold a press conference and take questions?

[Proud Liberal Dem]

38. Thanks for the compliment

The idea that we would ever have a candidate running for the 2nd highest office in the land who has (publicly) announced that she can't handle an unscripted press conference and/or interview, particularly after DELIVERING such a cynical, sarcastic, and mean-spirited acceptance speech and likening herself to a "pit bull" and that nobody has called her out on it in the corporate media, seems massively surreal. Hopefully, Obama or somebody will do an ad about it but with her planning on giving an interview, albeit a highly "deferential" one to Charlie Gibson at the end of this week, the point may be moot. However, the fact that she waited so long without giving one and that it is only being done on HER (the McSame campaign's) might still make for a potent ad, particularly if somebody points out the absurdity of how she has had to be "tutored" prior to her "coming out" party. When has a candidate for VP or POTUS EVER had to be "tutored" to be prepared to assume the office of VP or POTUS beyond perhaps a few classified briefings and/or updates?

[billyoc]

13. Why is a professional journalist afraid of journalists?

[fasttense]

14. So is Sarah Palin still having that affair with her husband's business partner?

Or has Sarah moved on?

[OneGrassRoot]

15. This is an opportunity for Dems to shed the "wussie" image -

They're putting themselves in a victim role, so it's time to get all over this shit!!!!

Biden can do it! He can call them on their BULLSHIT in much more forceful terms. It's not that Obama can't -- or shouldn't -- but it's just not HIM. He is cool, calm, reasoned. Biden, on the other hand, can call bullshit with the best of them and, IMO, he should every chance he gets.

Make them the WHINERS and LIARS. It's stating the obvious truth, after all, not sliming which they do.

[Midlodemocrat]

16. Did you know that her sister has an autistic child?

And that advocating for specials needs children and their families has NEVER been part of her platform.

[TexasObserver]

17. "Governor Palin is speaking with a forked tongue when she claims ...."

" ... when she claims she was opposed to the Bridge to Nowhere, and when she says she told Washington she didn't want their money. She wanted the bridge, she wanted the money, she got the money from Washington, and she spent it. Stop speaking with a forked tongue, Governor Palin!"

[TexasObserver]

18. "Is Obama referring to Palin speaking in tongues?!"

[scheming daemons]

20. BRILLIANT!!!!! Woot!

[jakem]

23. that has serious potential. i like the linguistic attacks!

:hi:

[TexasObserver]

31. Governor Palin Speaks with Forked Tongue!!

pass it on, repeat it frequently

[BurtWorm]

26. McCain response: "Obama's 'forked tongue' was a veiled reference to Todd Palin's Inuit heritage."

[OneGrassRoot]

28. Are those your words or Obama's? Either way, it's BRILLIANT!!!! n/t

[TexasObserver]

32. mine, which I now convey in fee simple to the internets

go forth and make the line multiply

[OneGrassRoot]

33. LOL! Will do! n/t

[IamyourTVandIownyou]

19. "People who live in 7 glass houses shouldn't throw stones"

.

[terrya]

21. Make an ad questioning McCain's mental/emotional instability.

Hell, the facts are basically out there. His irrational, volcanic temper, etc.

Bring it up in an ad. Suggest, not too subtly, that it would be a dangerous mistake to entrust some batshit, angry, insane person with the ultimate authority to launch a nuclear first strike. Something along those lines.

[Marsala]

25. It's probably in the works

The best part: the media would discuss it. McCain's fitness to lead would become the topic.

[Honeycombe8]

27. Off message? Any time everyone is discussing Palin, they're on message. nt

[MiniMe]

30. They need to show an ad with Palin saying that Hillary shouldn't whine about

sexism.

[AnarchoFreeThinker]

35. "The Vice Presidency isn't like a spelling test. You can't cram for it."

[WeDidIt]

37. Apologize to pigs everytwhere

because pigs don't smell as bad and aren't as stupid as John McCain's policies.

[Alter Ego]

39. Sarah Palin is an alien from Zorglax V!

DEVELOPING

[coalition_unwilling]

40. Palin ABUSES CHILDREN! (See latest issue of "Newsweek" for more) - n/t

[Virginia Dare]

42. Make an ad of the audience chanting "Sarah" "Sarah"...

like they did with Obama, and have the announcer say something like "Why is John McCain hiding behind Sarah Palin, is this what a man of experience has to offer"?
