Actually, this is rather sad to behold. If McCain and Palin were winning, they wouldn't have to focus on this stuff. But they're down big time in the polls, and so they need to keep swinging on this when in a better economy and with a better guy on the top of the ticket, they would be able to talk about "the issues" and not get down and dirty like this. The conservative media hasn't come after Obama the way they did Kerry. Bush didn't even have to attack Kerry's Vietnam escapades. The Swift Boat Vets did it for him. McCain has no Swift Boaters -- probably because he has no Rove.

I think Palin is thinking, "I not leaving the national stage without giving these jerks as good as I got." They've been merciless to her, why shouldn't she go down swinging.

Wrong... they ARE winning. McCain/Palin WILL wil on November 4.

I think there are two separate things going on here. Yes, the McCain campaign could be in better shape, and we could have had a better candidate. It is what it is.

The fact that the Drive-bys have been in Palin-induced apoplexy for over a month, and seeing it get worse, that’s fun to watch. They’re doing more damage to their own credibility (as if they ever had any) than anyone else’s.

Well, you have me stumped, I'm afraid. I just listened to the Governor's comments a third time, and I can't see how anything she's said isn't something that should have been said a very long time ago.

Are you saying the McCain campaign is desperate based on the reaction of the Annointed Media News Readers? Can you tell me some better gauge of the effectiveness of a line of rhetoric used against the Democrats then their becoming angry?

Don't the American people have a right to walk into the polls with their eyes open?
