Time ^

South Carolina Sen. Graham to WashPost’s Broder on Gov. Palin:

“‘I think they thought she needed time for briefings on the issues that were new to her,’ he said. But then he added: ‘This campaign will go down in history as stupid if they don’t unleash her now.’”

I think they have. She hit on Wonderboy’s association with terrorists. I think this is just the beginning.

OK,,,and is the GOP leadership (senators, governors, congressmen) going to enthusiastically and VOCALLY support/back her?

So far, their silence (except for Pawlenty and Guiliani) in her efforts to highlight Hussein's TERRORIST friendship has been deafening.

‘This campaign will go down in history as stupid

Wrong word - "HAS" gone down as stupid.

As Palin herself said today, "The heels are on and the gloves are off."

I love that woman.

They completely wasted the week right after the convention. Well you can’t get it back.

Hey. They don't call The Republican Party "The Stupid Party" for nothing.

And sometimes John McCain takes stupidity to dizzying heights.

You have a good point. This needs to be a chorus, not a solo or a trio. And frankly, given that the Clintons must know more than they're saying, they should jump in to help save the country from BO and his Marxist friends. if things go wrong it isn't like Hillary won't survive without her job. They should for once quit acting for their self interest and be patriots.

Even Lindsey can figure it out.

As much as the lib media is out to get her, they obsess over her every word, and they give what she says plenty of airtime. So let her continue to attack Obama. She does it so well in the voice of the everywoman, the middle class, the people who will decide this election. She makes these questions seem like common sense (as they are). Who is this guy, really? Is he who he claims to be? What about his relationship with that crazy terrorist dude?

They also need her to hit on Obama’s connections to Fannie and Freddie.

Obama is the most racist and misogynistic Democrat candidate the US has seen since, IMO, Woodrow Wilson. He’s also the most fascist candidate the US has seen since, yup, good ol’ Woodrow.

You know she’s driving him nuts. He hated Hillary too. Her job is to bait him into doing something stupid. If his campaign is wigging out as it is now, it’s only a matter of time until he starts talking about Ayers in public, which, of course, is what McCain wants him to do. Then McCain will be free to blast his arse over it.

As much as Obama has made his campaign post-racial, post-well, everything and extremely nihlistic, he will have to address these matters as the older folks who vote still love their country and don’t want some anti-American weirdo inhabiting the Oval Office.

How did they waste the week after the convention? They traveled to WI/MN/OH, and were here in VA a week after Palin’s dynamite convention speech ? Then off to NYC for 9/11 ceremonies. What would you have had them do in that time?

She is clean and honest, too. Something which Obama is not. He sold out a long time ago and despises America, taught at the knee of Jeremiah Wright, Wm. Ayers and others. He and Rezko had themselves a neat little money machine for a long time, long enough to propel Obama where he wanted to go.

“30 Day of Hell”

The McCain/Palin campaign should hit Obama with a new issue every 3-4 days for the next 30 days.

Ayers, Rezko, Wright, Raila Odinga, Shady Fund-Raising, etc...

Do to Obama what the MSM has done to Palin, except hit him with facts and his own words and associations, not innuendo and falsehoods.

Put him on Defense and force him to address these issues.

He will either have to deny them or admit to them.
