Well, well, well; everyone thought McCain was the Manchurian Candidate. I think it's Palin...

[bridgit]

Listening to this woman it's clear; she's been completely programmed based her own lies, she just keeps repeating them over & over. They've been shown far less than what they are; but she can't stop regurgitating them up & out her mouth. The chef, she did not get rid of but shuffled elsewhere through the Alaskan governmental matrix cooking wherever she went. There was no E-shrieking-Bay jet sales, that puddle jumper was sold by an aircraft broker. Palin continued her quest for earmarks not curtailed them, etc, etc, etc, on & on...

I think her mind is simple after all. The other day I gave them two weeks to blow themselves out...I think they're blown out as of this morning. John McCain & Sarah Palin's robotic adherence to neocon dogma was too easy to flesh out.

For once I feel better about the electoral college. Regardless of how many brain-dead-ditto-heads Rove/McCain/Cheney/bush/bfee are able to pull together, their only net-effect is that they will be turned away by history.

1. They are so afraid for Sarah to go off script.

Believe it or not, she actually can speak for herself -- or at least it's seemed that way in the two years that she's been governor. I think Rove and her handlers want to make absolutely sure that she doesn't say ANYTHING that would conflict with the story line they have prepared for her.

7. Scared shitless is my thought...

2. I think they peaked...

...and it will take a few days before this is reflected in the polls.

Their repetitive road show is so lame. We've heard all of these lines before.

Palin looks scripted and doubts about her lack of experience are really
started to take hold--because she is being hidden from the country. I mean
really! She wants to be vp, and a heartbeat away from the Presidency, but
she's not intelligent enough to answer a few questions from the media?

Next week, the polls will start trending Obama again.

Americans "tried on" the McPalin ticket and decided that the material was cheap and gawdy.

9. She is intelligent enough to answer questions.

The handlers are afraid of what she might say. She's been relatively bipartisan here. They want an attack dog. They can't have it both ways, so Bipartisan Barbie is being extinguished.

11. Probably more appealing, but still dangerous in her policies. Comprehension too simplistic.

10. agreed...

3. I said that the other day - Manchurian Candidate for the Evangelicals

[jannyk]

4. And if McCain should steal the election then...

he would need to watch his back every second. This is one cold, calculating, ambitious little tartlet with delusions of grandeur. I would not expect her to be happy in #2 spot for very long. The Maverick would be in dire jeopardy from that one and her spouse.

5. Sarah Palin is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I've ever

known in my life.

6. Not changing the speech is actually going to really hurt the McShame campaign in the long run

Smart, thinking voters are going to start to question why the news clips keep showing her in different clothes, saying the same thing repeatedly.

Soon smart, thinking leaners will see that there is no substance in that package (and that's all that she is) and look toward Obama again.

8. And she lives very close to Russia...
