Palin has MSM nervous ping to Today show list.

[JRios1968]

Why wouldn't you want a weak link on the opposing ticket? So what kind of scare has Sarah Palin has put into the MSM that various of its members, like Jack Cafferty, are floating the notion that McCain should consider dropping Palin?

Precisely my theory the last few days. If Palin were truly so terrible for McCain, the Angry Left and their buddies in the LameStream Media would be ecstatic about her.

[lookout88]

We win or lose, but we will do it together. Tell the friggen media that.

[JSDude1]

She’s Conservative, you (MSM) can get over it!

[Joe 6-pack]

Messing with the children of an Alaskan mom can be a really, really bad idea.

I’d go with *c. Laugh my ass off then sit back and enjoy the ride.

It will be most amusing if we are treated to the spectacle of the MSM desperately pleading with McCain to drop Sarah.

Recall the very final phase of the Battle of Floriduh, in the last days, the MSM resorted to their “Let the baby have it” defense of Gore, promising Bush that if he would only give in, they would see to it that History would judge him the better man.

[JSDude1]

LIARS; and you can count on it: “if we are treated to the spectacle of the MSM desperately pleading with McCain to drop Sarah”.

I subscribe to the view of the Palin candidacy that Peggy Noonan wrote about today.

How about the one she spoke about?

[FlingWingFlyer]

If McCain DOESN’T drop Governor Palin, where else will they go when they vote in November? MSM is stuck with McCain/Palin unless they want to vote for that goofy Kenyan, muslim guy.

[Telepathic Intruder]

I’ve heard so many liberals complain that McCain should drop Governor Palin from the ticket. For his own good, of course. It just sounds to me like a rattlesnake suggesting those tall boots are making you ankles too uncomfortable.

[governsleastgovernsbest]

Yikes. Thanks for bringing to my attention. I might have to revise my remarks at NB!

[OCC]

I’d go with *c. Laugh my ass off then sit back and enjoy the ride.

I'll take *c as well. As an American, I thought Nancy Pelosi was a horrible choice for Speaker of the House, but who am I to give them advice?

[andy58-in-nh]

The Liberals are scared sh!tless, a condition that requires an enormous consumption of their primary resource.

[DesScorp]

I'm starting to think Peggy Noonan is right... they are scared of Sarah.

[Lancey Howard]

I subscribe to the view of the Palin candidacy that Peggy Noonan wrote about today.

Did you see this?:

Peggy Noonan and Mike Murphy trash Palin on hot mic: "It's over."

[mabelkitty]

For one, she strikes at the heart of the Clinton two-headed beast. The MSM has quite a bit at stake in ingratiating themselves to the two of them with the understanding that the Clintons would have power for several years to come.

They will be out in the cold if Palin is lined up to take the Presidential spot in 2012.

[TexasNative2000]

Actually, you don't even need to set up this hypothetical.

Obama announced Biden and we all laughed and got out our copies of Bartlett's Quotes.

[Maurice Tift]

The MSM is doomed.

I’m still looking for the reference to FR, but...

Here’s how I’ve been bumping Palin/Obama threads today.

Sung to the tune of “Oh! Susanna, don’t you cry for me.”

“Oh, no Bama, please don’t lie to me... for I’m off to Free Republic with a laptop on my knee.”

I come from Minnesota with my laptop on my knee;
I’m goin’ to Free Republic my true love for to see.
It rained all night the day I left,
the weather it was dry;
The sun so hot I froze to death,
Obama don’t you lie.

Oh! No Bama, don’t you lie to me;
I come from Minnesota,
with my laptop on my knee.

I had a dream the other night,
When everything was still;
I thought I saw Obama dear,
A-coming down the hill.
The smearing lie was in Duluth,
The tear was in his eye,
Said I, I’m coming for the truth
Obama don’t you lie.

Oh! No Bama, don’t you lie to me;
I’m off to Free Republic,
with my laptop on my knee.

I fight in my pajamas,
It’s plain for all to see.
I aim to be the next Buckhead;
The media all hate me.
I fell in love with Sarah
When my sister bit a moose.
The Guvnor’s family ate it up
And then they set it loose.

Oh! No Bama, don’t you lie to me;
I’m off to Free Republic,
with my laptop on my knee.

She loves her sons, she likes her guns,
and Trigonometry.
The media will jump the shark
When Juan makes history.
Well, JimRob knows she’ll pave the trolls
So controversially,
And Berg will knock Obama down
With friends of Hillary.

Oh! No Bama, don’t you lie to me;
I’m off to Free Republic with a laptop on my knee.

I soon will be in Hawaii,
And then I’ll look all ‘round,
And when I find his birth record,
I’ll fall upon the ground.
But if I do not find it,
This Freeper’ll surely die,
And when I’m dead and buried,
Obama don’t you lie.

Oh! No Bama, don’t you cry for me;
I’m off to Free Republic with a laptop on my knee
