In all fairness, I have been to some states where I thought I was in a foreign country.
"GOP to file fundraising complaint against Obama
2 hours, 56 minutes ago
WASHINGTON - The Republican National Committee plans to file a fundraising complaint against Democrat Barack Obama's presidential campaign Monday, alleging it has accepted donations that exceed federal limits as well as illegal contributions from foreigners."

If they weren't embarrassed by her gibberish we would be seeing her on shows like Meet the Press and others...
Now she is in Nebraska spouting her crap. I smell desperation.
Bad sentence but too lazy to rewrite it. lol
I found this link on another blog. It is from a Phoenix newspaper in 1989 !!! They ripped John McCain apart for the Keating scandal. They also said, remember this is l989, that it is tiring listening to him give his POW story as excuses. It is a very interesting article and perfectly describes the John McCain of today. He hasn't changed in almost TWENTY YEARS but now he is a change agent?????

Has the media just made this about Palin and Obama and McCain is just a subplot in the campaign?
If you knew what she knew, you wouldn't be laughing.
She knows that... contingency plans have been made.
If the mud-slinging campaign ads fail, there's always the "October Surprise" terrorist attack.
And if the "October Surprise" terrorist attack fails, there's always the purge lists.
And if the purge lists fail, there's always the rigged voting machines.
And if the rigged voting machines fail, there's always the Supreme Court.
And if the Supreme Court fails, there's always the Army.
Ummm, governor? Remember that Alaska jet you sold because it was too expensive? Every leg of your little field trip around the country is costing much more. And, the rallies, and signs, and venues you're appearing in? They also cost money. The $80 million pot of money the taxpayers gave McCain's campaign isn't big enough for you to go everywhere you feel like going. Even if it was, that would be a silly way to run a campaign, and everybody knows that.
Dammit, governor cut the cute crap.
Remember Dan Quayle? Nope, we don't either. He left office a young man, but didn't graduate to any positions of national prominence. He tried to get cute by making an issue of Murphy Brown. A lot of folks talked about it for a little while, but it -- and he -- went away.
Let's be real here...
Maybe if the media was as worried about a certain Illinois Senator buddying up with convicted home grown terr-wrists...
Since he was of course eight years old...
As they were with a couple of (dozen) small mistakes Vice President Palin from Alaska has made recently...
In interviews, a debate and some unregulated moments with the press...
Regarding the constitutional role of the Vice President...
And the current Administration's foriegn and military policies...
And the various actual positions of her (running mate's) campaign...
And the fact that she periodically talks in tongues while answering questions about what magazines or newspaper she reads or her what her opinions are regarding that vague and unimpactful entity within Government called the Supreme Court...
The Supreme Court...
"Big Woop!" as some folks might say...
At a little league hockey game...
The media might realize what a perky interview President Palin would be on the mornings shows if she somehow found her way into the White House...
So instead, I will bring you this cheery news. According to the Omaha World Herald, Palin drew about 5000 people. In February, Obama drew at least 12,000 people to the same auditorium. Obama filled the entire Civic, and still had a couple thousand watching downstairs in the Music Hall.
If Palin can only get half the crowd Obama got 8 months later, one month before the election IN ONE OF THE REDDEST STATES IN THE COUNTRY, what does that tell you?
Sarah Palin said this at the debate the other night. I would not have allowed my sixth grader to hand this in on a school assignment without correcting the grammar.
As a fellow journalism major, I am insulted that I had to work hard for assignments in writing and poli sci classes and public speaking classes to graduate, while she seems to have graduated with a fifth grade education.
I can't imagine any of my professors allowing this type of speaking or writing (assuming her speech is representative of her writing skills) to get a passing grade. She obviously has never used "Elements of Style" by Strunk & White. Maybe that sparkly winking came in handy in the 5 colleges she attended or maybe her Dean at the school was Rich Lowry.
