Sarah is definitely smarter than anyone in McCain's camp.

I admire her spunk. McCain operatives need to let her go to Michigan. Sarah and Todd speak MY language. I was born and raised in Ohio. I live in Minnesota now. ........I love Minnesota, but I MISS Ohio.

Go, Sarah, Go!
I'd like to see Governor Palin do it. She should schedule quite a few speeches and visits in Michigan, not so many that she neglects the other swing states but enough that she stays in their news cycle and gives the Michigan voters a reason to vote thoughtfully.
Go, Sarah, Go!

A kangaroo is smarter than anyone in McCains camp. Unless they change their M.O. They..and we along with them. Are done for. Maybe if we call him and tell him we need a SURGE. He will get it. Or maybe he is incapable.

McCain's Only Shot
You never bluff and EXPECT to win. You can only HOPE to win unless you are willing to follow-through to the end. McCain did not have the intentinal fortitude, perhaps because he such a RINO deep down, to carry through with the actions and strategies that were dictated by the orignal announcement that he was suspending his nomination.
McCain was not willing to make Barry and the dummies pay for playing the crisis like business as usual. So therefore it was a bluff - a stunt - and it backfired.
Now, his only chance is to get aggressive in the debates and the stump and spend 100% of his ad buys on negative advertising defining Barry as a radical liberal.
Just one play left John. Do you have the huevos to play it all the way?

Whomever is running Sen. McCain’s campaign is wrong.
IF the decision was to “abandon” Michigan it is wrong
because it HURTS lower GOP races. Stupid.
And it would have been quite stupid to publicize it
since it shows weakness.

A surge then.
Still, the Democrats in Mihigan have got vote fraud down to a science ~ did you know they have more voters in Detroit than they've got people?

I love it...you gotta give the McCain camp some credit here...they are letting Sarah be Sarah and have let her go out there and campaign hard. The Bush handlers should be fired.
To: IbJensen
I heartilly agree with Gov. Palin! There should be NO SURRENDER of anything to the camp of the presumptuous one, Hussein (peace on him) and his minions.

Right. Votes from the dregs of the great society. Without a change in who can vote we are over the 50% threshold of democracy destroying itself with the progressive income tax.
To: IbJensen
Give Sarah & Todd the bus for a few days of whistle-stops in Michigan. I'd bet there's enough Palin-love in Michigan that the word would go out via phone-bankers and the net, and you wouldn't need a lot of high-end ads and glitzy organizing.
Bonus: Also a good way to show that she DOES have a common-sense influence on McCain!

The Bush handlers are all burned out RINOs. Time to let them go.

Money could be playing a big part in the decision.
The McCain machine is running short of cash and they might have to pick their stops wisely.
Still - why visit a place you are strong in unless it is expected you would be cordial - but if you are running out of money - why not pick the places you need more votes in??
I don’t understand politics - I should shut up right now!
To: Blue Turtle
Speaking of which, by now the Presidential campaign machine should have already worked its way through job applications for top level jobs.
This is how you get bad appointees like Jim Webb ~ if they DIDN'T WORK THEIR WAY THROUGH.
That happened with RR came to office. The party machinery people were lax ~ didn't think he'd win ~ so it wouldn't be prudent to do all that work for nothing.
Then RR won in a landslide and there were turkeys in the pile and no turkey shooters ~ just standard party hacks.
Wonder what the McCain people have been doing in this regard? Probably nothing.

The action demonstrates to the rest of the nation that McCain may elect to write off other states as well.
Very stupid action!

It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog.
Note to JohnnyMac, go back to MI.
You can't win if you don't try.
