Unfortunately any good that come out of the tour will be diminished by a stumbling version of a pretty famous story. Or at least the media will play this up pretty big. Another ‘gotcha moment’.
I love Sarah Palin, and agree with almost everything she stands for, but this is more than just a gotcha moment. This is just inexcusible for anyone potentially seeking the presidency. If Biden said this, we’d be rightly all over him (and he has a track record of being even more clueless on our history). These are the types of unscripted moments that are having me cool to Sarah and warm more and more to Herman. I can see more of these gaffs being detrimental to her as her potential campaign gears up.
they will portray her as an air head which let’s face it, she at times sounds like one, but more so than Obama? No. Obama is never asked these questions. Is never put on the spot to explain any Americana.
Ask Sarah about college sports, hockey etc. she’s find.
Ask Obama how can one man complete a triple play single handed, and he’ll stammer.
Sarah’s words without the “uh” included (which is what would happen with any “quote” of Obama or Reid or Pelosi, etc.):
On Paul Revere:
HE WHO WARNED THE BRITISH THAT THEY WEREN’T GOING TO BE TAKING AWAY OUR ARMS, BY RINGING THOSE BELLS AND MAKING SURE AS HE’S RIDING HIS HORSE THROUGH TOWN TO SEND THOSE WARNING SHOTS AND BELLS, THAT WE WERE GOING TO BE SECURE AND WE WERE GOING TO BE FREE, AND WE WERE GOING TO BE ARMED.
And the problem with this off the cuff, unrehearsed remark was.....?
