I wonder if they realize that they're not helping their boy with all this? I don't think they can help themselves, though. It'd be like me living nextdoor to a Krispy Kreme and a Ruth's Chris.

She scares them to death.

[9YearLurker]

They realize it’ll sell magazines.

I took the article which I read as a hitpiece on her supporters

It's not about Obama. They're doing extremist positioning work against Sarah in order to make Hillary look like a sane, stable centrist running against a fringe Christian extremist. So they combine that caricature with the idea of "feminism" so that the centrist women will recoil from the combo and turn to Hillary as seeming to better represent them.

It will get far, far worse. The MSM will take this meme to the limit, and start screeching that "if you ain't fundamentalist, you ain't feminist." Remember, liberal women like to think of themselves as "feminist-lite" ("lite" is more attractive to liberals that life itself).

Take nothing the MSM says on it's face - their very existence is a manipulative lie, and manipulative lying is also their purpose. And they serve only the very worst - with sadistic glee.

No, they are scared because they have Obama to worship and not the likes of Sarah. (IMO)

You’re both absolutely correct.

No wonder Newsweak is up for sale......what a rag.

“They’re doing extremist positioning work against Sarah in order to make Hillary look like a sane, stable centrist running against a fringe Christian extremist.”

Excellent insight into their clever maneuvering with the Palin Clinton thing. A leopard doesn’t change its spots.

[SoCalPol]

The Left Wing continues to bash Sarah Palin because she is the one who in writing and interviews takes it to Obama
on an ongoing basis. Not, Mitt, Huck, Mitch, or the other wannaBies.

[ReneeLynn]

Geez, that’s a lame cover.

[RichInOC]

Nice pic. Too bad the article’s nuts.

[ReneeLynn]

I don’t think the radical Christian bit is going to work in light of Bristol and baby and the bit she wrote about considering ab abortion with Trigg. That is to say, Sarah has not gone around pretending she and her family are perfect people, with perfect lives, so that approach really isn’t effective.

[ReneeLynn]

‘an’

[UCANSEE2]

OK. I see their ‘thinking’.

THEY put a halo on Obama and we criticized it.

So... THEY put a halo on Sarah Palin, and they think that will make us criticize her.

Woof, woof.

[Don Corleone]

And...she can also skin a moose.

It'd be like me living nextdoor to a Krispy Kreme and a Ruth's Chris.

Hillary is in an awful spot. If Obama goes into the primaries, and she takes him out, you can say goodbye to the African-American vote. If he even appears to be pressured by party powers to do the same ... ditto.

[Dr. Sivana]

They're doing extremist positioning work against Sarah in order to make Hillary look like a sane, stable centrist running against a fringe Christian extremist.

The above should have been the quotation in the previous post, not the part about the Krispy Kreme.
