It's all just a setup by Rove. In the VP debate, Palin will stun the world by demonstrating the vocabulary and intellectualism of William F. Buckley, Jr. She has to tread carefully however. Any sign of intelligence or the use of big words and they will lose the base.

I've had this same thought! She's merely been play acting like a dunce to fool us all and the real Sarah - a closet intellectual & brainy scholar - will come forth & shock us all in the debate. Yes, it would be a big downer for the base - they thought they had the perfect woman there! Razzle-dazzle as Tweety likes to say!

She will probably have the questions beforehand, like when McCain was here in Orange County, CA, can't remember the name. He knew the questions. I really think he knew some of the questions in this last debate.
But again, I don't think it will go forward - the VP debate.

A bunch of kids and babies got gassed with chemical irritant by Talibangelicals at a mosque in Dayton, OH!
I just went over to free republic to see what the other side is talking about. Not a single mention of Palin, one or two things about a new attack add from McCain and all the rest is all about Barack Obama. The goofy part though is that it was all Weekly World News quality stuff. They really have nothing. They also seem to be referring to Obama as Bambi or O'Bambi. I thought they preferred Hussein or Osama. They also have a propensity for typing in ALL CAPS. I don't think I'll be visiting Free Republic anymore. They kinda suck and their website is pure ugly. Figuratively and literally, ugly.

Watching CNN and they have an economic analyst, Beverly Goodman, on talking about the bailout. The host, Don Lemon, asked her how the bailout would affect the average American. Her take is what I was afraid of. She said the bailout wouldn't ensure that we wouldn't have "trouble down the road" but for now it makes things seamless and smoother for the average American. Get that? Go back to sleep, average disengaged Bu$h voter. Things are okay again for a couple of months! We don't want you feeling any pain right now right before the elections, or you might get angry and vote for the wrong people!
I'm still pissed off congress worked this weekend, and nights to get this bailout passed in order for them to scurry back to their districts and work to get re-elected to their cushy insider jobs with free health care and a retirement system that is scandalous! If they worked evenings and weekends they should have kept their offices open so they could hear all the calls for them to DITCH this effort that is simply a band-aid to keep the status quo for a few more months.

Sarah Palin can't take you questions right now, she is roaming the Alaskan tundra with dinosaurs.
She's hoping they'll lead her to caches of Alaskan oil.
Because she figures they have to visit their dead relatives sooner or later.

Poor little neoconservative intellectuals hoist on the petard of their anti-intellectual manipulations, (duh!!!) whatever that means! (yuh-huh!)

Question: Could the next president duly change the bailout bill. I mean didn't Bush do alot of signing statements which were attached to bills?

One sure way of Palin losing more of her base is if she keeps using that tanning bed.

How many of these conservatives will think of the better good of this country and jump ship to vote for Obama?

I don't know. With the privacy of the voting booth? Interesting thought. I'll bet Bill and Hillary will vote for McCain.

Lots of preaching in the evangelical pulpits today in sw Ohio and n KY to "vote for McCain because he's against abortion and gay marriage". You can't tell me Johnny's studied debate churlishness wasn't a direct play for these open and secretly racist white people...

The experts are already warning us this bailout is not going to have any effect on our economy, at least as far as "main street" is concerned. Pay attention!

She's an embarrassment to conservatives who fancy themselves as intellectuals.
Unfortunately, the vast majority of conservatives are Fox News morons, and they love her.

They can't keep her hidden forever. I just hope she holds on long enough to lose the election with McCain.

If McCain/Palin loses, and Palin manages to stay out of prison over the next four years, I'd love to see her and Mitt shred each other in the 2012 primaries.

Word here in Los Angeles (South, South Central, West, East, Middle, et al.,) that Black Churches are getting information from the right wing nut cases that if you believe in GOD you can not vote for Obama.
What gives these people the right to tell us what God is saying.

The Religious Right is pushing the border between church and state. This weekend they are having 30 ministers call their congregations to vote for McCain. They are trying to get the feds to overturn the tax law. I linked to it earlier. I'll see if I can find the link again.

Catholics in Communion can't vote for Obama. It's not negotiable. If you do, you're apostate and living a lie if you don't dis-associate yourself from the church or acknowledge your sin and be absolved. That's been pretty much spelled out to church- going Catholics.

Depends upon where you live and which bishop you have. And, even with the worst of them (central PA, central Ohio, for example), I haven't heard the "apostasy" nonsense in church. Some bishops, including upstate New York and Wilmington, DE, have delivered the message that there's more than abortion at stake, like immigration reform, the economy, and the war -- each of which has been a big Catholic issue where Democrats have been on the side of the angels. (small snark)
ingraham thinks Palin, a conservative ideologue, is the most promising "populist" since Reagan, a conservative ideologue. i do see the similarities, but somebody needs to define populist. i guess the main intellectual difference between the 2 is that reagan didn't mix up his punch lines.

Hell McCain want to get out of the Healthcare business and that's a death sentence for seniors and people living with HIV and Heart issues to name just two...
I guess Old John feels that his military healthcare program and later his veteran healthcare program failed him in all so many ways... the man is a fascist through and through!
Welcome to American first home grow fascist party... The All New American Republic Fascist Party headed up by John McCain!

From the linked article: "arguing that presidents like Harry Truman and Ronald Reagan were also underestimated because they had modest educational backgrounds." I keep hearing how Palin is dismissed because she didn't go to an Ivy League school, but I haven't seen a single example of this. Is this a straw man or am I just not going to the right web sites?

Where did that conservative knucklehead get the idea that the Founding Fathers wanted regular, i.e. not very bright, people in government? They didn't trust regular people. That's why only white male property owners had the vote, and why the Constitution specified that senators would be chosen by state legislatures. Only after the Founding Fathers' generation died off was a "regular person," Andrew Jackson, elected president. And even he was wealthier than his man-of-the-people image.
