McCain won’t win or lose one vote because of this, so in that respect it is fluff.
If a recent signup sees that the crowd wasn’t enthused by Palin, and a long time member sees it as a largely positive reaction to Palin, there is a disconnect there. To me, it’s clear that to describe the crowd reaction as ‘mised’ is putting a happy face on it. She flopped in Philly.
To me, I’d rather she went and did this before a more friendly audience. That would be a good thing. Instead we’re stuck with an embarrassing video clip.
Not a big deal, in the end, but I wish it didn’t exist.
Sarah Palin likely won admiration and respect from many fans for having the guts to do what she did.
In other words, the McCain/Palin ticket could very well WIN some 'undecided' votes... but won't lose any votes they weren't gonna get anyway.
It was a smart move on Palin's part.

Embarrassing to whom?
As far as I can tell, the ceremonial parts of these events should be where you act like an adult, and show some pride in your team, and city by acting as such.
These “adults” did just the opposite and only embarrass themselves.
