GOP concerns about Palin grow
By ALEXANDER BURNS & DAVID PAUL KUHN | 9/27/08 11:15 AM EDT Updated: 9/27/08 11:15 AM EDT

A growing number of Republicans are expressing concern about Sarah Palin’s uneven — and sometimes downright awkward — performances in her limited media appearances.

Conservative columnist Kathleen Parker, a former Palin supporter, says the vice presidential nominee should step aside. Kathryn Jean Lopez, writing for the conservative National Review, says “that’s not a crazy suggestion” and that “something’s gotta change.”

Tony Fabrizio, a GOP strategist, says Palin’s recent CBS appearance isn’t disqualifying but is certainly alarming. “You can’t continue to have interviews like that and not take on water.”

“I have not been blown away by the interviews from her, but at the same time, I haven’t come away from them thinking she doesn’t know s—t,” said Chris Lacivita, a GOP strategist. “But she ain’t Dick Cheney, nor Joe Biden and definitely not Hillary Clinton.”

1. “I have not been blown away by the interviews from her" - oh really? I sure as hell have!!

I've been left speechless and stupefied by the interviews from her, which in my book constitutes "blown away"!

2. I love seeing McCain in this bind - he looks bad if he keeps her and bad if he has to replace her.

Either way, he shows his total lack of judgment and the total disarray of his campaign strategy. Gotta love it.

4. I didn't come away thinking she didn't know shit?

Really?
