One great thing that will come out of this will be that it should give McCain/Palin a get-out-of-jail-free card if they are to make a similar slip. For example, remember McCain slipped and said he was a liberal in one speech. This would guarantee that the left wouldn’t get traction if he makes another such slip of the tongue.
I have long feared that in the debates McCain will innocently say something like, “boy let me tell you...”, a common phrase used to add emphasis. But 0bama’s media will jump all over that as being racist, spouting that McCain just called 0bama “boy”.
Having examples of “passes” given by the media on 0bama’s slips will go a long way in countering such spurious accusations, so in that regard this muslim-gate money quote could prove useful.
The Republicans will ignore this- not PC.
It’s up to US as usual, to spread this.
