Clockwork is a set programmed job. It requires you to know the gears, the springs and how it all goes together. It is a demanding job, requiring skill and a certain affinity for the job to be able to do it well. It is also a good analogy to the MSM/RNC/DNC attempts to STOP PALIN.
If you notice, after every homerun"/"good news cycle" of Gov Palin's, the clock workers in the MSM/RNC/DNC bend to their tasks of STOPPING PALIN. It doesnt matter what type of homerun Palin accomplished. It could be a speech like last Saturdays or a great interview like Tuesdays Hannitys appearance. It doesnt matter, because the three groups set out on the same step by step game plan to turn the news cycle from Palins favor to their favor.
That game plan includes the following ingredients.
1) Hit pieces from "establishment" figures. These "hit pieces" contains at least 2 of the following: A) Unnamed sources giving "opinions based on slanted/smeared "facts". B) A declarative statement that she cannot win, will throw the election to Obama and/or the moderates will never vote for her. C) A reference to at least one or two things they think has hurt her in the polls. These could include: 1) A mention of the Tucson shooting, 2) A mention of her making money, 3) Her TV show, DWTS, 4) etc.
2) The hit pieces are either followed by or reinforce skewed polls with a slanted internals like the recent ABC/WAPO poll that oversampled Dems by +10pts. 3) Some type of tabloid story to report on that can refocus the narrative from the substance of Palin's remarks to something that the National Enquire can run with. These include: a) Levi Johnson b) Bristol's son c) Trump d) Kathy Griffin e) The newest one, attacking a 3 year old child.
Like sunshine follows the rain you can bet your savings that this game plan will appear whenever Gov. Palin does very well at some event, some interview, elections and/or some speech. After the attack pieces, the phony polls, and the tabloid crap, the MSM/DNC/RNC thinking their job done will declare Palin's political career is over and try to ignore her. Until of course, Palin stands up and speaks and hits another homerun. Then the clock workers must once again bend to their task of righting the innerworkings of their Ivory Tower Clock.
Praise the Lord.
You've laid out the anti-Palin blueprint pretty well.
The AxeGrinders Union local #2012 are very busy this time of year. ;p)
I was around for Reagan and Palin is Reagan in High Heels! She is better looking, but Reagan was not in his prime.
Palin is quicker in getting her words out than any politician in the last 50 years, this is a sign she says what she believes! Finally, someone who tells the Truth!
Some people seems to think a woman cant run this country, thats another reason why she needs to be the first woman President!
She would do a lot to hurt the men having sex with men lifestyle, Normal would be back in again! Thats probably the biggest reason that the anti Palin freepers keeping spurring out all the same negatives Reagan lived with, yes, our token liberal democrat Trolls and with their sick lifestyle!
Everything you just said comparing Palin to Reagan, talking about how quick witted Palin is, then going someplace strange about freepers that aren’t on board with her being gay. Do you not see that you sound completely bonkers?
The same grammar police always hit pro Palin posts,
Pissant was the Police of Chief of the grammar, spelling anti palin trolls.(taking focus off of topic)
Psycho trolls: Has a psychological need to feel good by making others feel bad.
Flamer trolls: Does not contribute to the group except by making inflammatory comments.
Kooks trolls: A regular member of a forum who habitually drops comments that have no basis on the topic or even in reality.
Goofy trolls: A forum member who gets drunk and posts the same spam on multiple threads.
She not gay, trolls are.
You left out popular culture. The final stage in the process will be jokes on Letterman, Stewart, and Maher referencing ‘the latest Palin gaffe” to establish it firmly in the public mind.
good point. I’ll add that as well as the suggestion for blogging trolls.
of course your comment makes no sense but you already knew that.
Good one. :)
