Yes, Al, Let's move on, but....
Submitted September 3, 2008 - 4:45 pm by Norm W. (not verified)why shouldn't a focus be made on Palin's so-called experience?
What if Senator Obama had chosen Govenor Sebalius to be his running mate? Do you think for one second that the first words out of McSame's/right wing surrogates mouth wouldn't be that she has no foreign policy experience? If Sebalius had also had some family problems on top of that, how many weeks would it be before we got to hear about policy differences between Obama and McCain? I agree with Jeanne above-- why oh why are Democratic candidates never seen as smear victims?
Again, I agree with Al that the victim card is useful to the GOP at present. Will it swing the election? Ask HRC -- she tried (sometimes successfully) to play the card repeatedly, but it can only be played a few times over 9 weeks. After this week's storm, I predict it will come down to McSame and Gov. Palin's own campaign statements biting them in the butt. Playing Poor Mrs. Palin will only last so long.
Having said this, I won't be posting about Palin again. I'm already bored with her and the Repubs. I'm more excited to get out and register new voters and call folks on the weekends. Who's with me?
