My e-mail to Noonan:

“Let me say of myself and almost everyone I know in the press, all the chattering classes and political strategists and inside dopesters of the Amtrak Acela Line: We live in a bubble and have around us bubble people. We are Bubbleheads. We know this and try to compensate for it by taking road trips through the continent — we’re on one now, in Minneapolis — where we talk to normal people. But we soon forget the pithy, knowing thing the garage mechanic said in the diner, and anyway we weren’t there long enough in the continent to KNOW, to absorb. We view through a prism of hyper-sophistication, and judge by the rules of Chevy Chase and Greenwich, of Cleveland Park and McLean, of Bronxville and Manhattan.”

Noonans email is on post 16.

I sent them both nasty emails, nastier than I’ve ever sent to liberals and communists lol.

Now, I’m giving more money to McCain/Palin....I hope more of these establishment country clubbers out themselves so we know who the frauds are...I’m sure the insiders and Party hacks know many more.

My message to Murphy:

I doubt that a couple of snarky old dinosaurs like you two even know what the term “conservative” means any longer.

There is a new and fresh conservative movement rising and you elitist pundits are being left out in the cold.

It may be Peggy Noonan is a good conservative but more aligned with the DC and NYC mentality than most of America. I’ve read her articles in the past and I look forward to see what she has to say on this blunder, on her part.

Narrative? Yes, it certainly is. But it is a time in history when voters are more than willing to embrace change. Liberals or conservatives in Washington DC and traditional media may not be mentally prepared for it, on either side.

For me, in Colorado, this has been a turning point for my enthusiasm with our side of the ticket.

I just hope Republicans have not raised the bar so high that Sarah Palin cannot reach it no matter how well she does this evening.

Looks like the WSJ is clamping down on comments to this article. There are 5-6 pages of comments (at 10 comments to a page) made in the past 45 minutes that are currently not visible, probably because a moderator hasn't approved them.

Actually, it's 15 postings per page, and now it's up to 9 pages of postings that haven't been approved.

I suspect that by now there's a full scale alert in the WSJ editorial bureau. I hope Noonan turned off her cell-phone, as she wouldn't want it to interrupt her on-air commentary.

Peggy started to go over to the “dark side” right after the 2004 Bush re-election. She wrote that rousing script to the video that Thompson read that introduced Bush at the 2004 convention.

I think she thought she’d get back on his staff, and since she wasn’t asked she became bitter.

I used to blame her moody columns on menopause (mental pause, LOL)...but it’s been going on too long now for that to be the cause.

You are so right. The looking down on our convention is obscene. Last night, they were trying to find “movie stars” so they could talk to them. None around. They laughed. The music was bad. ABC, CBS, NBC didnt even show Fred T. speak last night. They did go to the talking heads however for an hour we just couldnt see what they were talking about. Im so pissed I am coming unglued!! Someone better come out swinging or ????

Or flutter her eyelids?

I listened to the video. What I think I am hearing from Murphy and Noonan is elitism.

They would much more have preferred a RINO insider. This red meat conservative stuff is just too much for them. Somewhere, somehow, they forgot that red states exist.

What we are witnessing is a complete meltdown by the inside the beltway and Rockefeller Republicans who do not want nor will tolerate a unknown at their table.

They are terrified that a Sarah Palin would so capture the hearts of Americans that she could actually bring real change and reform to DC and end their gravy train.

Do not be surprised if certain Republicans are feeding their liberal surrogates info regarding Sarah hoping to unseat her.

There are already rumors that some of the Alaskan Repub’s are assisting......

If McCain's smart, after he wins, he will appoint her in charge of ferreting out corruption in government, something Congress won't do.

I'd hate to be one of her Secret Service agents if he does it but it is long overdue to be done.

Blunder.. maybe. True heart, probably.

I am so suspicious of the snakes at msnbc, I wonder if they sensed something like this would happen and left the mics hot purposely.

” What the hell is going on with her??? “

Peggy was never the same after 9/11.
She was separated from her child who was in school in Brooklyn, while she was in Manhattan- which may have caused some kind of PTS.
Seriously.
Her chief occupation the last few years seems to be hand wringing on paper.
Murphy didn’t snag a gig with any Republican campaign during the primaries-perhaps no one wanted a defeatist running their operation.

Peggy Noonan has long been a RINO. The think that Noonan excels at is that she knows who her paymasters are.
