Just asking: regarding mccain-palin feud
various reports have unnamed sources within the mccain campaign and within GOP taking shots at palin.

Diva, rogue, whackjob and ignoramus are a few of the shots being leveled at her.

haven't seen any mccain staffers willing to go on the record and identify themselves in this feud. nonetheless - this feud or civil war brings up an important question.

ennywho I'm just asking: If mccain can't unite his own campaign, if he can't unite his own party - how can he unite the country to do what needs to be done?

1. When a campaign
is this publicly divided in the weeks before an election, it is always a sign of defeat.

2. Watch Palin the next few days. I think there's a very good chance
she'll REALLY break with the campaign very soon. She doesn't seem like the type of person to allow herself to be called names.

3. He can't even run his campaign, much less unite it - the country would be lost with him as prez.

5. the reason I'm asking is
I think this is a good point to bring up when talking about the feud.

we have a big mess to clean-up, it's going to take all of us, working together. This means EVERYONE from EVERY demographic group. It means ALL americans need to participate.

9. HA, that's the one I have
printed up and stuck over my desk right now. I love the lipstick crossing out McCain's name - nice touch! :)

Really, you could do a series... they provide so much fodder. The more forcefully you can make the connection between this infighting and the big picture of lack of leadership, the better.

not to mention, stupid, stupid, stupid choice for vp. (thank goodness for us, huh?)
