1. She and Mika have taken stupid pills the last few days
Word must have come from the NBC corporate office to try (anything) to keep the race from becoming a blowout.

6. Lets be honest with ourselves
Palin is so full of shit but, but dang, she is selling it to the GOP base!!!

Mccain would have *bush ratings without her. She has made the difference. We need to bring her down ASAP.

13. Horse hockey ...
McCain would be in BETTER shape right now if he would have picked a more viable VP. Make no mistake, part of BO pulling away at this moment is that the middle recognizes she has NO place, NO PLACE, a presidential ticket. Had put his ego aside and picked a strong running mate, like Romney, he would be well in the game, had he even picked someone unknown, but better prepared/qualified, like Pawlenty or Cantor, he would be in much better shape.

What/who Palin appeals to is the extreme right wing who would get behind WHOEVER it was. It isn't about Palin, outside of being uber MILFY, she is doing nothing that Pawlenty or Cantor would be doing, throwing bombs, except they would not need protected from the press. How Fin weak is it that the best they can do to sell her is a hockey mom? Again, if it was Cantor they would find something to pump him up, if it was Pawlenty they would have found something to pump her up.

I repeat, outside of the base, who was going to go all gaga over WHOEVER McCain picked, she is a freakin joke, literally.

16. Yes, she is selling it to the base, but it doesn't seem to be going much further than that.
She appears to be the main draw right now, but the bounce she gave McCain's campaign is gone and his ratings continue to slip. I hope that lasts all the way up till election day.

9. Repeating the personal character attacks giving this tactic legitimacy by calling it
strategic campaigning.

TWEETY did the same thing this morning -- pointing out the filthy tactics again and again and again and again -- but then clarifying that the tactic is meant to WIN and is aimed at a specific demographic.

POLITICS they say without raising one iota of judgment as to the filthy tactics, and by giving these tactics a national platform, they just call it Politics as usual, and thereby become PRINICIPLE accomplices to the FILTHY of the Palin/McCain/Schmidt/Rove campaign to divide this country along the most scurrilous xenophobic lines.

15. No, they don't needs "pills" for it. They get their marching

4. A natural campaigner takes interviews
I mean, this is the very FIRST thing you'd expect from a "Natural campaigner." Their comments are ridiculous.

14. She has a natural presence on the stump.
Edited on Thu Oct-09-08 01:09 PM by Barack08
That much is undeniable. Even a Palin hater like me can admit that.

Too bad she can't answer questions off the cuff and needs to have her speeches prepared for her.
