Palin fell jogging at McCain home - hand bandaged

[RamboLiberal]

Just heard on Rachel's show. She is Chimpy in a skirt!

On edit story:

Sen. Joe Biden will face an injured Sarah Palin in tonight’s debate after the Alaska governor took a spill jogging around running mate John McCain’s Sedona, Ariz., home.

Palin reportedly hurt her hand while taking a break from debate prep Monday.

The Alaska governor arrived in St. Louis today wearing a bandage on the injured hand and is expected to sport it during the vice presidential debate.

Palin will not be the only injured participant in tonight’s debate, as moderator Gwen Ifill broke her ankle Monday. Ifill visited Washington University, the site of tonight’s debate, in a wheelchair Wednesday.

1. I hear her bodyguards aren't letting any pretzels within 100 feet of her.....

[codjh9]

13. I love it! Thanks...

[Coexist]

37. DUzy!

[tekisui]

2. She got tanked and punched a picture of Katie Couric.

[eleny]

3. Unless there's a video, I'm skeptical

[Auggie]

19. Me too. Hair down, hand bandaged -- lot's of hiding places for "things."

[Speck Tater]

4. She must have been chewing gun while trying to run and overloaded her brain. NT

[Boz]

5. Its covering the receiver in her hand

[RamboLiberal]

7. Probably has her cheat notes as well - nt

[Bucky]

12. Ha! If she starts unraveling the bandage in the debate and reading it... she's busted!

What I just wrote is probably sexist.

[RamboLiberal]

14. Maybe she has written on the bandage in ink

only her special glasses make visible.

[Whisp]

27. and a moose to take her frustrations out on.

[yy4me]

20. That was my first thought. Maybe a mini-teleprompter. Reading

the answer is easier than trying to hear through an ear piece. Hope she has magnifying glasses on. The lights can do a job at the proper angle. If she holds her hand up too often or looks at it, I will really wonder.

Isn't this great, what a conversation we are all having about someone who should be qualified to be president of the US.
It is revolting how little respect Mcsame has for the American people.

[msallied]

6. Ooh! Let's bring out the Segway and see how she does!

[juno jones]

16. Sarah, this is GOD

Back away from the segway! :)

[Bucky]

8. Well that's less obvious than "head bandaged"

[melody]

9. That walking and chewing gum thing gets ya every time n/t

[sandyj999]

10. What is that man doing?

First Cindy in a sling and now Sweet Sarah. I think he needs watching.:sarcasm:

[lurky]

11. Snake handling incident? n/t

[NC_Nurse]

15. LOL! Love it!

:rofl:

[louis-t]

17. Surprised they didn't say "she's too hurt to debate."

Still might happen. Sympathy ploy.

[spanone]

18. a little sympathy boo boo

21. The conspiracy theories have started

This in a recent CNN article when reports witnessed Sarah Palin getting on a plane today in Arizona:
.

"A photographer noted that the governor was sporting a large band-aid on
her right palm. The campaign said Palin had cut her hand on Monday when
she suffered a fall during a jog."

I wouldn't put it past the Republican Party to try to hide a small communication device under this "large bandage" which might silently vibrate to give Palin cues throughout the debate.

Think I'm kidding? It was WIDELY speculated that George W. Bush was wearing a receiver in debates during his run for office. Just google it if you want to.

Be aware that these are desperate times, and for an underqualified person, anything that can help will be considered, even cheating the system.

I would like the moderators to make sure neither candidate is wearing anything that could be used to help them, even if it requires them to make Sarah Palin prove there is nothing under the bandage.

Both candidates should be checked well. But this Palin bandage is very suspicious.

26. time to start jamming all frequencies

If she starts to reply to Ifill's questions with Eminem lyrics, we'll know they set it to the wrong frequency.

[anigbrowl]

33. Why hide something under a bandage when you could use a sleeve?

Honestly, our own tinfoil-hat wearers are just as stupid as the Freeper variety sometimes.

[Doremus]

They needed somewhere to plant the wire; the ear proved too distracting for her.

[VenusRising]

22. Taking a page out of the Cindy McCain playbook.

Awwww. They really ARE becoming friends.



:puke:

[ClarkUSA]

23. Palin will make a cutesy comment sympathizing with Ifill's ankle while waving her bandaged palm.

It'll make the audience laugh and make Palin seem nice and neighborly. You heard it here first.

[TheCowsCameHome]

24. I'll bet Ifill could kick Palin's ass good and proper, broken ankle or not.

[ClarkUSA]

32. After being trashed by McCainiacs all week, Ifill probably wants to do that.

I hope she does kick Palin's ass tonight and asks tough follow-up questions. :smoke:

[RichardUK]

25. Will they mike her up?

I'll die a happy man if they try and feed her the answers from a van outside, but the frequencies mess up and she starts repeating the commentary from the Red Sox game.


PALIN: Yes I believe in this great country of the United States of America that we should defend our borders from the ...bottom of the sixth two men out rips one down the line and it's good, the ball bounces just inside the....borders of Pakistan and Afghanistan.

[Bucky]

29. How exactly is that any less coherent than the answers she normally gives?

[TheCowsCameHome]

28. Foreplay with Gramps got a little rough, eh?

[Bucky]

30. ew

Stop that shit. For two reasons.

[AndyA]

31. I call bullshit.

They've got her wired so her words tonight will make sense.

It will be obvious...if she makes sense, she's wearing an ear piece, and the bandaged hand can hide the receiver.

[rug]

34. He's got to stop leaving his cars lying around.

[Desertrose]

35. Biden should wear an eyepatch....

Just kidding.

;)

[Jeff In Milwaukee]

36. One of her handlers smacked her with a ruler...

My teachers in junior high used to do the same thing.

[progressivebydesign]

38. Uh yeah.. she's out jogging in 100 degree weather. n/t

[underpants]

39. Was she chewing gum?
