The negative Mcshame campaign starts tonight!!!

[Ron Paul- voting BO]

With the expected high viewing of this debate you can bet Sara Palin will go negative and bring up all of the Obama's associations. Be prepared to hear Rev Wright and Tony Rezko. The reason is I was listening to Scrannity (must keep track of the enemy) and he was saying this is what he would do if he was in the debate. They will then roll out the negative ads with all of the people she brings up because it will be fresh in peoples minds. Listen This is their one chance to bring this thing close and they know it. She will go negative that is their only choice. Sara Palin does not know enough about policy to make this a debate.

1. She will look even more desperate and out of her league if she does.

As for the negative ads, it is all they have, and they won't work.

2. I believe she might do that, but only if Ifill asks questions that can

be plausibly diverted to those topics. Let's hope she doesn't get an opening.

4. given her Couric answers, plausability won't slow her down.

that's her job, she knows it, she won't be distracted.

5. That's why gaming the ref was a BAAAD idea for the RNC and its parrots.

She will have to really struggle to get that opening and Ifill will be watching for it and likely shut it down quickly.

3. Be intersting to see how "always serious" Gwen Ifill controls the debate

I just don't see her putting up with this crap unless it's within the scope of the question.
