I just don't get this "big speech" bit
It's written by someone else, she's being coached to the point that she seems to be unavailable to the press for days,.... so why are the pundits say that we'll see the true Sarah Palin. No, we won't. We'll see how well she takes instruction and how well the make-up artists do.

We will know nothing more about Sarah Palin, because it will be some made up image that we see. I will not be watching. What will we learn from this "big speech". It's going to be hyped as great, but what does she stand for?

And....why do Republicans talk so much? They seem to go on and on and on.

1. For my own mental health I will just look at the posts here instead of watching.

6. i'm with you - i have a garage to clean
Mr. Retrograde plans on watching it, and I want to be out of the house (no, there's no danger of his voting for her or McCain. His big dilemma now is rather to contribute to Obama or to the House/Senate dem races).

2. Media churn to keep us all glued to tools like David Gregory.
It's all the Republican apologists can talk up -

3. Why do Repubs talk so much? Because if they stopped for a moment, the truth might leak in.

4. Speeches
Meanwhile, they all refer to Obama's speeches disparagingly, as if that is all he's made of- at least he wrote them!

5. It's her audition tape for FOX News anchor...
...which is the job her qualifications REALLY suit her for once she drops out (or loses the election if she makes it that far).
