Sarah Palin plays the media like a violin: Her turn now [excerpt] Sarah Palin, with her counterintuitive secret publicity bus tour, is demonstrating one of the most important rules of American politics:

There is nothing that the U.S. media wants more than something it thinks it can't have. Hence the power of news leaks that manipulate the thrust of their initial presentation. Hard-to-get is a rigid rule of human behavior. Ask any teenage boy or girl. [end excerpt]

The media doesn’t get the back of the bus, the front of the bus, or a seat on the bus. They MISSED the bus.

13:00 (video link of campaign speech above).....”When I ran for the school board I didn’t need focus groups or voter profiles because I knew the voters.” — Sarah Palin just before explaining the difference between a community organizer and a mayor.

Now there’s the ticket:

West/Palin or Palin/West.

Either one works for me.

The Atlantic’s Garance Franke-Ruta griped that “reality TV star Palin” was “treating pol reporters like paparazzi — needing and hating, inviting and making chase.”

When Princess Diana was killed after being chased by "paparazzi" (which is a fancy Europeanized way of saying locust media), there was initial horror in the press. Then, to their "relief", Diana's driver had been drinking. They immediately absolved themselves of all blame, primary and tertiary.

Witnesses: Diana's car may have 'bumped' another before crash

BS. Those "paparazzi" chased her like a hunted animal, and were directly responsible for her death. Then, to add insult to injury, they covered her funeral like the parasites they were. On top of that, they hounded Prince Harry and Prince William after her mother was in the grave.

The grace those two men have shown in recent months (including both of them serving in their nation's military, getting promoted, and both earning their helicopter wings) speaks volumes of their character over the low life's in the media.

A number of these combo packs people are suggesting sound good but I seriously want to see Sarah on the top of the ticket because I want to see the debate between Sarah and Obama.... I really do.

I’d like to see Allen West do the same - and completely cut Barry Zero to shreds - making Barry look like a stunned mullet in the process.

“Prince Harry and Prince William”

Their father, however, is a complete droid.
