What about Palin's hair? Or the fact that it covers an empty skull? Might become a real GOP trend, who knows.

Wow ... what a sorry blog this is ...

yawn

I didn't like the look of Palin in her Miss Wasilla swimsuit, and yet I would advice her to wear it. It will be the only way to make Biden lose his head.

And this blog is called Political Radar?

Hmmm.

Will someone please put Sarah Palin out of her agony? Is it too much to ask that she come to realize that she wants, in that wonderful phrase in American politics, "to spend more time with her family"? Having stayed in purdah for weeks, she finally agreed to a third interview. CBS's Katie Couric questioned her in her trademark sympathetic style. It didn't help. When asked how living in the state closest to Russia gave her foreign-policy experience, Palin responded thus:

"It's very important when you consider even national-security issues with Russia as Putin rears his head and comes into the airspace of the United States of America. Where—where do they go? It's Alaska. It's just right over the border. It is from Alaska that we send those out to make sure that an eye is being kept on this very powerful nation, Russia, because they are right there. They are right next to—to our state."

There is, of course, the sheer absurdity of the premise. Two weeks ago I flew to Tokyo, crossing over the North Pole. Does that make me an expert on Santa Claus? (Thanks, Jon Stewart.) But even beyond that, read the rest of her response. "It is from Alaska that we send out those …" What does this mean? This is not an isolated example. Palin has been given a set of talking points by campaign advisers, simple ideological mantras that she repeats and repeats as long as she can. ("We mustn't blink.") But if forced off those rehearsed lines, what she has to say is often, quite frankly, gibberish.

Can you be honest on this? Are you not a American?

COURIC: Why isn't it better, Governor Palin, to spend $700 billion helping middle-class families who are struggling with health care, housing, gas and groceries; allow them to spend more and put more money into the economy instead of helping these big financial institutions that played a role in creating this mess?

PALIN: That's why I say I, like every American I'm speaking with, were ill about this position that we have been put in where it is the taxpayers looking to bail out. But ultimately, what the bailout does is help those who are concerned about the health-care reform that is needed to help shore up our economy, helping the—it's got to be all about job creation, too, shoring up our economy and putting it back on the right track. So health-care reform and reducing taxes and reining in spending has got to accompany tax reductions and tax relief for Americans. And trade, we've got to see trade as opportunity, not as a competitive, scary thing. But one in five jobs being created in the trade sector today, we've got to look at that as more opportunity. All those things under the umbrella of job creation. This bailout is a part of that.

wwwwhhhhhhaaaaaatttttttt!!!!!!

Can we now admit the obvious? Sarah Palin is utterly unqualified to be vice president. She is a feisty, charismatic politician who has done some good things in Alaska. But she has never spent a day thinking about any important national or international issue, and this is a hell of a time to start. The next administration is going to face a set of challenges unlike any in recent memory. There is an ongoing military operation in Iraq that still costs $10 billion a month, a war against the Taliban in Afghanistan and Pakistan that is not going well and is not easily fixed. Iran, Russia and Venezuela present tough strategic challenges.

McCAIN: P.O.W.

PALIN: M.I.A.

OBAMA: P.O.T.U.S.

CURIOUS GEORGE.

kudos to you

What woman in their right mind would think Joe Biden is all that. ROTFLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!

The good news for Republicans is America has such a low opinion of Palin and her obvious lack of knowledge, all she'll have to do in the debate is pronounce "nuclear" properly and she'll do better than anticipated.

Of course Republicans will call that "a win".

McCain's been a millionaire for decades by taking money and maneuvering with everyone from Indian tribes and casinos to defense contractors and everyone in between....NOT TO MENTION DUMPING HIS FIRST WIFE FOR A 24-YR OLD MILLIONAIRE!

So, for everyone complaining about Obama making a little bit of money off his book, please folks look it up.

where was michelle last night?

Colorado,

Michelle was at the debate. When Barack and John walked away from each other. John walked to Cindy and they embraced, then the camera went to Obama as he walked toward Michelle and they also embraced.

I was like you when I saw John & Cindy, I wondered where Michelle was. Because I didn't walk away from the set I caught the scene of Michelle and Barack. I do admire both women.

NYT's big hit piece on mcCain now online:

"McCain and Team Have Many Ties to Gambling Industry"

OUCH! This one is going to hurt....

If elected, McCain would NEVER have to worry about assassination attempts. Even a crazy person wouldn't want Palin running the country.

Five deferments from military service in Viet Nam...

For asthma...

However Old Joe Biden dresses, you can bet he has never worn military fatigues...

But, then, neither has Obama...

And, whatever Old Joe Biden wears, he probably paid for it with his MBNA credit card...

Anybody But Obama...

This one's for you, Ed,

McCain...Patriot

Palin...Governor

Obama...Interloper

Biden...Draft dodger

Anybody But Obama/Biden...
