McCain Defends Sarah Palin

[Maelstorm]

This is a great video. McCain really slams Palin's critics.

[TNLawyer]

Great video, but I wish he would have attacked Obama at the same time.

At least he took up for Gov. Palin though.

A bit late. Palin was great this summer when herself. America fell in love with her. They sent her out trying to sell that reformer BS McCain couldnt sell and didnt prepare her for some predictable questions with decent talking points.

Has McCain been asleep this past month??

[knyteflyte3]

It's like a step back in time, picture youreslf a young POW named John McCain in a foreign land with a foreign press, now snap back to today's situation, similar? Is this de ja vu or what, and a crule one it seems, but McCain, ever the maverick, polished, and creative politician knows how to hndle and throw it back in their face, I love that........

[right wing]

I wish McCain would have shown that so-called famous temper of his and demanded that Gwen Ifill be replaced. Instead, he said that he thinks Ifill will be fair. GAG ME - McCain is surrounded by enemies that will stop at nothing to win and he just doesn't get it or is completely naive.

I'd bet my life savings that Joe Biden has had Gwen's debate questions for days now and will give a stellar performance.

Again, McCain kicks their butts!

I want to see more of this!

What is it going to take for you all to realize that McCain has been completely overtaken by events beyond his control - the financial crisis. Until it is taken off the front pages and the bailout goes through, it will remain this way. Palin's bad publicity is, at worst, a distraction in the grand scheme of things.

"Some people know Franklin Delanor Roosevelt didn't address people on television"

A classic biden smackdown, and the dumbass reporterette has no clue.

A bit late.

Too late? With polls fluctuating 10% or 15% per DAY you have to conclude the polls have an agenda; or two days before the election, or one, is still on time!

McCain would be an asterisk today if not for Palin. Let's see how things look on Friday or Saturday.

Welcome to FR, troll.

The successful attacks on Palin make it more painful with McCain’s floundering around. McCain did good when he was bold and separated himself from Obama. Problem is, him and Bush and Obama agree on the “it’s all Republicans Fault Trickle Down Invester Bailout Bill”. Who does this rally to McCain?? Obama says “It’s all republicans fault”. McCain says “No point in blame, it’s both parties, except my, fault” This is such an idiotic strategy.

Pinging myself for later viewing.

RE “McCain would be an asterisk today if not for Palin.”

Don’t misread me. I LOVE Palin and hate seeing her on the defensive. Defense is the new McCain strategy.

[Genoa]

A great video. I wish his famous temper would flare a little more like this (look at his eyes). He’s best when he’s not trying to please the questioner.

[JEH_Boston]

Instead, he said that he thinks Ifill will be fair

The more people that pick on her, the better she is going to come out looking. McCain understands human nature; the best thing that Gwen Ifill can do to make Palin look like the clear winner is to treat her unfairly.

[Maelstorm]

I thought so too. I heard that they had recorded the interview at the DesMoines register. If McCain would spend more time talking like this he’d blow Obama away. People like McCain best when he fights. Playing the nice guy never wins Republicans anything but a beating.

[Neu Pragmatist]

McCain’s handlers have been over-suppressing him. So what if he get’s a little ticked off .... people tend to gravitate to that .
They need to take the leash off of McCain now ....He needs to name those names now ....

I second your sentiment. I would like to add that I want to see more of McCain like this. He was energetic and threw good punches at 0bama/Biden.

I also realize that the MSM will edit out as much damaging remarks McCain/Palin make against 0bama. We must all realize this and get frustrated at the obvious censorship and partisanship. I believe this election will be won at the ground level, in the trenches. We have the media against us, so we must take the message to the American people.
