I saw that!
It just floored me.
In the time Obama has been running for president (and not doing the job he was being paid to do) Sarah was cleaning out crooked Alaskan politicians and gaining valuable (and real)executive experience.
The last 24 hours had made me realize that a great part of Obama's success in the last 20 months is because he got the early jump on the primary and was the only new, young (relatively so) face on the campaign trail.
This campaign has been needlessly and interminably long because Obama's wealthy backers started him early in hopes of bleeding the competition financially dry.
Now, in only 24 hours, Sarah Palin has moved him and Jaberin' Joe from smug offense to reactionary defense.
John McCain is in the Catbird seat (at least for the next week or two).

Huh? Have we been watching the same campaign? "The Zero" has been on defense for the last six weeks!! He's been having to play catch up since he got back from Europe, to have the "Celebrity" ad hit him smack in the face, and it shows. Team McCain has been absolutely ruthless, and relentless since then, with one hard-hit after another, with "The Zero" not able to regain any balance.
Look at the total difference between *how* the VP choices were revealed, and never mind the *who*... Team Zero's "revelation", while widely anticipated, and stoked in the media, was an absolute shambles, with the "my supporters will know first text mail" being forced to be sent at 3:30 AM EDT, for crying out loud! And by the time it *was* sent, everyone and their first cousin knew who the pick was beforehand. In contrast, Team McCain floored everybody with his choice, which he kept well-concealed, for maximum effectiveness. Smooth, versus "SLOPPY"!!
Why was Team Zero so sloppy? Because Team Zero never expected to actually have to campaign to win this election, they thought they had it in the bag.
The initial surprise as, that Team McCain gave Oh-Bummer enough rope to hang himself with, and he did so, with that ill-advised, and ill-concieved trip abroad. Since then, Team McCain has been all over "The Zero" like white on rice, capitalizing on any gaffe he makes, and since he's rattled, he makes more than a few...
Many are thinking that this latest move is his initial move, but the dance to destroy the Chicago Punk started weeks ago, and this just the latest in a series of devestating maneuvers, leaving the hapless Marxist bozo gasping like a gaffed carp on a levee...
