Did she say there was a toxic mess on Main Street affecting Wall Street?

[W_HAMILTON]

Did I hear her correctly?

Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but that's not exactly the best thing to say, correct? She's blaming everyday Americans for the screw-ups on Wall Street?

[barbtries]

1. i heard that too

about 85% sure that's what she said.

[W_HAMILTON]

5. Are we just misunderstanding it?

Of course, I'm sure she doesn't think that, she probably just got her nouns reversed (it seems like the two of them did that quite a bit).

But that's a pretty unfortunate misspeak if so. I'm surprised it hasn't gotten more play, I don't think I've heard anyone mention it.

[leftofthedial]

2. that's what she said.

[JimWis]

3. She sure did - I caught that too.

[Critters2]

4. Yes!! I caught that!!! What would Freud say? Hmmmm? nt

[blisteringcold]

Your 100% correct

She did say it! I shouted at my hubby and the tv when I heard her say it.

[PDJane]

6. Yeah, that's what she said.

She isn't getting the picture, is she? And she pronounces nuclear correctly about 1/4 of the time.

IFILL: Next question, Gov. Palin, still on the economy. Last year, Congress passed a bill that would make it more difficult for debt-strapped mortgage-holders to declare bankruptcy, to get out from under that debt. This is something that John McCain supported. Would you have?

PALIN: Yes, I would have. But here, again, there have -- there have been so many changes in the conditions of our economy in just even these past weeks that there has been more and more revelation made aware now to Americans about the corruption and the greed on Wall Street.

We need to look back, even two years ago, and we need to be appreciative of John McCain's call for reform with Fannie Mae, with Freddie Mac, with the mortgage-lenders, too, who were starting to really kind of rear that head of abuse.

And the colleagues in the Senate weren't going to go there with him. So we have John McCain to thank for at least warning people. And we also have John McCain to thank for bringing in a bipartisan effort people to the table so that we can start putting politics aside, even putting a campaign aside, and just do what's right to fix this economic problem that we are in.

It is a crisis. It's a toxic mess, really, on Main Street that's affecting Wall Street. And now we have to be ever vigilant and also making sure that credit markets don't seize up. That's where the Main Streeters like me, that's where we would really feel the effects.

11. OH gimmie gimmie gimmie -- I know there is another big freudian about NEVER McCain..

I'm going to go searching!

[Tigress DEM]

18. Maybe I misheard. Can't find it. But here's a good one

PALIN

..you're going to have a choice in just a few weeks here on either supporting a ticket that wants to create jobs and bolster our economy and win the war or you're going to be supporting a ticket that wants to increase taxes, which ultimately kills jobs, and is going to hurt our economy.

WOW even Sarah realizes she needs to vote for Obama.


Right?
I mean who has the plan to create jobs and bolster our economy? Obama
Who has the plan to win the war by setting a time limit and leaving? Obama

If she thinks McSame has the winning plan, does she not realize that if you never leave you never win sometimes you have to let a country do something by themselves or they never grow up?

Kind of makes me wonder how many of her kids are still secretly on the titty beside the newbie?

(I can say that. I'm a woman. I'd say it to another woman backing McSames plan blindly. I said it to my sister when she really needed to get her kid off the titty. So I'm a bit of a boor.)

[Eric J in MN]

17. I guess she meant that mortgages from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac...

...are "toxic."

[Tigress DEM]

8. I heard it TOO! What a freudian!

[Stinky The Clown]

9. Her note sspecified she say:

"Toxic Mess"

"Main Street"

"Wall Street"

It failed to specify the order in which the sounds were to be uttered.

[W_HAMILTON]

[Subdivisions]

12. Yes, she did. I was appalled. n/t

[malaise]

13. Yes you did

[bdamomma]

14. I heard her say that too. She got that wrong she was tutored.

over and over again.

[PA Democrat]

15. I feel like I need a set of headphones like they have at the United Nations

with a translator who can interpret her gibberish.

[Hannah Bell]

16. yes. nervousness.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

19. She did and I said outloud..huh??????/

[vanlassie]
