I am not sure it was intentional. He is not very good without a teleprompter. This may be like the “My Muslim Faith” issue.

Take away for a moment the comment made by Sarah Palin and it would have been an appropriate opposition argument.

Change Change Change but really more of the same..and then..you can put lipstick on a pig and it is still a pig.

It was a huge mistake to say because people will take it exactly how they are taking it..I am just not sure it was intentional. He may be more like Joe Biden than I thought....open mouth insert foot.

Look at the video. He covers his brow as he speaks the phrase, either as an attempt to look cutely innocent or to unconciously hide himself out of shame. He knew the implications of what he was saying, as did his audience immediately.

Stump speeches are usually not off-the-cuff affairs.

If you look at the clip there's no doubt that the line was deliberately inserted in the speech by his tin-ear staff, and Barry went with it.

It shows up a contempt for Governor Palin and for women that is quite startling.

These people live in a bubble, and it just burst.
