Carl Cameron just said McCain campaign shocked to discover Sarah Palin did not realize Africa was a continent, believing instead that it was a country. She did not know the countries in NAFTA. She refused offered preparation for the Couric interview and threw temper tantrums over adverse press.
Wow. Dumping on Sarah in a big way. Shep asked how on Earth the McCain camp could have ended up picking such a dope (not exact words, but sense of what he said).
They did point out she seemed to help the polling numbers.
I knew this was going to be the template, but I was surprised at the level of nastiness on Fox News. Looks like elements of the McCain campaign is determined to make her the scapegoat for the loss. (Couldn't have been anything about the man at the top of the ticket.)
Fox News: Palin didn't know Africa was a continent You Tube
The McCain team won’t accept blame for their own defeat so they blame Palin. Nice!
More gracious to Obama than his running mate..
Wait a minute! Is this the same Carl Cameron who just one day before the election was reporting how elated all the McCain people were about their election prospects. Either Carl is making stuff up, or more likely is tied into a totally disingenuous source within the McCain campaign.
The pre-election euphoria story was obviously a lie, and look; now we have another lie! A matched set! How nice.
I know.
If I had done the graphic I would have included the apostrophe.
Get the names out there. Is there a chart published anywhere showing the hierarchy of the Republican Party? A corporate diagram?
Or maybe the genius that decided 80 million was enough to overcome the media deluge by PAracks billion or the MSM's who knows how many billions?
I know nothing about running a campaign but I know when one is pathetic--and IMO this was a pathetic political campaign.
Sarah is a scapegoat!
Bump for reference...
He needs to keep it in his pants ~ it will help out a lot with his appearance of integrity.
Sounds like jealous back-stabbing McCain suckups getting in a few parting shots.
I spit on them all, bastards.
"You will embrace this attack on Gov. Palin. Support it, from our lands in
the north. I will gain GOP favor by condemning it and
ordering it opposed from our lands in the south. Whichever way
the tide runs, we will rise."
But she BY GOD knows the difference between an unborn baby and a punishment!!!
The hate against her just proves she IS a TRUE Christian!
Romney’s revenge...!
I don’t recall any of her opponents in Alaska making these kinds of claims against her. Didn’t the Dems up there have generally nice things to say about her as a person or boss? The MS magazine editor woman who wrote an article in her favor said that she realized how smart Sarah was after meeting her.
She has turned into a force and they want to stomp her before she gets too big for the current party elites.
This enity Romney you speak of, is that MUTT ROMNEY the Libtard?
I am not saying I believe it per se, but I will say it wouldn’t surprise me. It sure seems like this whole campaign people were blaming other people whenever Palin didn’t look good.
I’d like to see some real sources on the record though.
bullshit.
that is all I have to say.
