Is Sarah Palin's Star Beginning to Fall? (Hit Piece)

"...Her favorable rating is at 40 percent, down four points from last week, while her unfavorable rating stands at 30 percent, having risen eight points in the same period. Among women, Palin's favorable rating has fallen 11 points in the past week, the poll said...."

Don’t you think that Biden is already consulting with the network debate moderators to be sure the questions are tailored to his strengths? Indirectly, of course.

Ludicrous push-polling on demand for the Obama campaign. They are desperate. Sarah hasn’t moved below 60%, I would bet Biden’s life on it.

[laconic]

Part of the problem is that we’ve had no one kick the media right back in their teeth for the biased liars they are. I’ve only seen Newt Gingrich and Rudy Guiliani push back against the these biased “journalists” - in one case some bozo named Ron (?) Brown from MSNBC and in the other Harry Smith from CBS This Morning. Instead, we end up with some mealy mouth like Carly Fiorina supposedly standing up for Governor Palin. Where are the questions about OBama’s relationship with the terrorist scum Ayers, who still boasts of his “efforts” (can you imagine if McCain’s mentor was one of the Birmingham church bombers, also from “forty years ago”)? Can you imagine if Palin gave, like Biden did, all of 0.1 (ONE TENTH OF ONE PERCENT) of his copious income to charity (all of $ 125 for one year), what would be the media reaction? As much as I dislike him, we need a Carville on our side to get in there and publicly punch back against these lying losers in the media.

Well THAT’s true anyway...

[4everontheRight]

Not in my book it isn't! The harder they push their liberal BS, the deeper my pocket goes to support Palin! Their plans are backfiring as far as I am concerned!

[bitterohiogunclinger]

If true, it's a normal result of having the entire media doing everything they can to destroy her for two weeks. I think they've failed miserably. Look at the results they've achieved with the last three Presidents. They eroded 41’s favorable rating from a 70 percent at the end of the Gulf war enough to get him defeated by Billy Bob. They held up Billy Bob through two terms and continue to defend him to this day. They've attacked President Bush nonstop since the primaries and have managed to finally be able to claim he has the lowest rating in history. Have you ever noticed the disrespectful way they hiss “Mr. Bush” when they refer to him? In the backlash against the media that occured during Palins speech at the convention, I actually heard on of the reporters start to refer to Mr. Bush and corrected himself and said President Bush. There's no media bias, nope, not in this country.

“We do it against terrorists and Dems.
I say just bring it!!!!”

Yep, this election represents a turning point for the country. it’s big, and important enough for Canes and Gators to fight together!!

DAMN THE MSM TORPEDOES!

[my right]

She can't say what she really thinks because John McCain is the top of the ticket. Her task is to support his candidacy regardless of her own ideology.

I think it has been traditional for vp picks to be the more radical when it comes to attacks. You can see Bidden starting to do this now, McCain needs to keep up. Democrats with all their warts have (in my opinion) been the better campaigners. They can make chicken salad out of chicken sh*t better that anyone. I don't say that we need to be in the same gutter, but this is for all the marbles.

Does Plugs actually have any?

[Chaguito]

His big strength is long-windedness. They can defeat Palin by not giving her a chance to answer after Biden uses up everybody’s time.

Let’s go to battle!

[Publius6961]

Imagine that...

At the current rate, in about two years, Sarah's rating will be down about even with Congress...

[eastsider]

... , God Love her, great legs too, really great ...

ROFL!

[rodeo-mamma]

I am tired of the left creating false images of the Republican Leadership. Do you notice how they do it most to the ones who threaten them the most? I’m tired of it, I saw them try to do it to Reagan, then to Quail, next to Bush W. and now to Palin. And that’s just the ones running in the presidential election. It’s not counting all the other ones, who are to numerous to mention. It’s getting old. Of course, it doesn’t help when Hollywood, the experts on everything there is to know about life, jump on the bandwagon. Do they think the American Public is a bunch of idiots? Apparently so.

Note tagline.

[Finalapproach29er]

She needs a press conference to de-bunk all 7-10 lies told about her already.

She needs to defend herself!

[anniegetyourgun]

I hate what they do to our guys/gals too, RM. But don’t get discouraged - we still have many weeks ahead of us. And we can’t give up because the alternative (Obama) is starting to look scarier than even Al Gore was in 2000.
