McCain Aides Complain That Palin Is "Clueless" (Pfffft!) NOOOO. Say it ain't so....
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/09/26/report-mccain-aides-compl_n_129618.html



Radio talk show host Ed Schultz reports:

Capitol Hill sources are telling me that senior McCain people are more than concerned about Palin. The campaign has held a mock debate and a mock press conference; both are being described as "disastrous." One senior McCain aide was quoted as saying, "What are we going to do?" The McCain people want to move this first debate to some later, undetermined date, possibly never. People on the inside are saying the Alaska Governor is "clueless."

On Friday, conservative columnist Kathleen Parker said that after seeing Palin in interviews, she thinks the vice presidential nominee should drop out.

6. Strange speech patterns from her... give me the feeling that there
is more there than meets the eye. Pithy and not much substance.... a post turtle to be sure.

>>The old man said, "When you're driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that's a post turtle."

The old man saw a puzzled look on the doctor's face, so he continued to explain, "You know he didn't get there by himself, he doesn't belong there, he doesn't know what to do while he's up there, and you just want to help the poor stupid guy get down."<<

7. They should worry less about her debate performances and MORE about how...
they should worry MORE about just how fucked we will all be if she was elected into the executive office.

i'm honestly terrified that she could actually become president. i mean, fuck man. right now it's a joke, an internet meme. tomorrow this moron could be running our entire economy and military.

i feel sorry for her, but i very much hope that her idiocy is the campaign's eventual undoing.

9. Don't jump to conclusions.
Who knows, maybe the questions will be about field dressing a moose, identifying places that don't need bridges and being able to talk about the advantages of sex education in the schools. You know, questions she might actually know the answers to. Can you think of any others?

10. How about the narrow, maritime border with Russia.
She knows where that is. And, she knows about Putin's head.
