On Friday's Situation Room, CNN's Jack Cafferty asked, "Is Sarah Palin's 15 minutes of fame over?" As you can see, Jack seems very anxious for Palin to become a has been of little consequence in this election:

Funny how a stock market crash, the failure of a few big investment banks will distract Americans from the flavor of the day. There doesn't seem to be the burning interest in who makes Sarah Palin's glasses that there was a few days ago. Former White House advisor and Republican strategist Karl Rove told the Associated Press this week that the Palin phenomenon will fade between now and the election, and that may be already happening.

Actually, when I lived in NYC, Cafferty was on Channel 4 WNBC. Back then he seemed like a regular easy going newscaster, unlike the unhinged maniac he is today.

[The Truth Will Make You Free]

Only if he considers 4 years as Vice President to be 15 minutes.

[Fatuncle]

I agree - the insults used here are sometimes over the top. I know - I've contributed my share.

Jack WHO??????

[Clemenza]

You are correct. I preferred Ralph Penza anyway. Sue Simmons was a giggling schoolgirl back then.

Hope Jack doesn’t find out Sarah drew a crowd of 60,000 TODAY, in Florida.

You have that right — Obama is sinking fast and Sarah is the real deal and definitely liberal’s worse nightmare. She is like a breath of fresh air for Republicans. Her speech was awesome today. Haven’t felt this enthused since I heard Pres Reagan speak.

I think there is a typo in your tagline.

Thanks for the heads up.

"The odds are that Sarah Palin will, in a few short years, be the 45th President of the United States. "

And Everybody knows it!

“What’s a Jack Cafferty?”

It’s a major Clymer wannabe.

What’s a Jack Cafferty?

Resident curmudgeon and as*hole super deluxe at the Chicken Noodle Network.

[danamco]

Course, she’s probably a little pooped and she was wearing a jacket in that 95 degree heat and humidity. LORDY!

That's a tough one when you come down here and used to Alaska's cold climate???

You, Jack Ass, it is NOT 15 minutes, it will 15 years!!!

[Disciplinemisanthropy]

you know, that guy who will be asking a similar question four years from now, if he’s lucky enough to keep that job of his.

i think he also invented the cafferty adding machine

[Forward the Light Brigade]

I wish McCain/Palin would come out to California and speak. Maybe we could turn the state Red.

[Allegra]

Hey, Jack, sorry you have a small problem with your anatomy, but we don't really want to hear about it.

[TheThinker]

Liberals hate Palin because she managed to integrate feminism into the nuclear family and rose to the top without the aid of crutches like social programs and abortion.

[Post Toasties]

AFAIC, Jack Cafferty is a has been that never was.

[Joe Boucher]

Stupid writer.
Yesterday 60,000 showed up in central Florida to see Saracuda speak. How many would show up to hear you speak Jack? Your boyfriend probably would stay home to watch queer eye for the straight guy rather than listen to you pal.
McCain-Palin.

[PJ-Comix]

Florida FYI. I wonder if Sarah will be coming to Broward County?

[Fresh Wind]

Who the hell is Jack Cafferty?

This should give you a clue...
