Karl Rove commented on this yesterday, said Palin has welcomed an investigation, and he thinks it will be zero.

MSNBC - nobody is watching because nobody cares.

Democrat marching orders in response to the Sarah Palin phenomenon: just lie as hard as you can, and keep on lying.

This time I really don’t think it will work in their favor.

You should go to work for the McCain campaign although they are doing a pretty good job already IMHO.

Exactly. That was absolutely disgusting.

Why don't they list Hussein's background as: Community organizer, Blatant racist mentor/spiritual advisor, Friend of terrorist.

MSNBC is below contempt.

Attacking Palin will be their worst mistake.

I'm sure they all (MSM) had hit pieces ready to go for all of the potential VP picks.

“McCain selected Sarah Palin, the inexperienced Alaska Governor, as his VP choice today. Governor Palin has been accused of wrongdoing in a scandal (fill the blank)...”.

Interestingly, Biden’s announcement failed to take note of any of his past problems (plagiarism, foot-in-mouth disease, etc.).

Whenever reference to a Republican is made, there is always a negative reference included — ostensibly, to show unbiased reporting — yet this is rarely done when reporting about Democrats. Biased? You decide.

If the Democrat press machinery starts off with a heavy bombardment (no surprise there), they may be down to throwing small pebbles by late September.

MSNBC had a “breaking news” banner during the VP announcement that said “How many houses will Palin bring to the ticket?” It doesn’t even purport to be a legitimate news station anymore. CNN is more balanced. Heck, BBC is more balanced!

That’s great.

Now how does this get to McCain’s people?

Any lurkers?

Truth: Sarah supported her Sister. There is no evidence, at all, that she suggested action against her violent, alcoholic brother in law. However, given his attacks and threats against the family before and during the divorce, no one would have blamed her.

This cop was driving drunk on patrol and tasering her nephew for fun. I’m guessing he was WELL on the way to self-destruction without any help from Gov. Sarah.

Everyone who has had dealt with a serious substance problem the in family can relate to this one. Women who have dealt with abusers know this story as well.

Doesn’t look like they’ve recorded much of her history, but I like what I see.
