Chris Wallace.
I am getting the feeling Sarah is the new rock star just in time for the final push.
Is Tom Brokaw the MOST BORING person ever. As much as I want to watch this show, I find myself falling asleep...and the Boring combo...Brokaw and Biden,I may tape this so i can use it as a sleeping medication.
I don’t see it as “hiding” at all.
As to her being an offensive weapon, I think that ‘townhall’ type venues would allow her to be very effective while at the same time displaying her abilities to think on her feet and answer fully without being cut off.
...and then there will come the “debate”. (Heh-heh)
Not a damn bit of difference....
Sarah’s got perhaps 2/3rds of the country watching her back
Been watching Axelrod V.s Wallace on Fox. Everytime Wallace asks an uncomfortable questions, Axelrod quickly changes the subject.
That is a crying shame. He sometimes wrote things we didn’t agree with, but he’s a good journalist. A JOURNALIST. Journalists are almost extinct these days.
I agree.
Axelrod is stumbling on FNS, funny to watch.
Axelrod can’t answer a straight question. I give Chris Wallace props for asking the questions over again.
Axelrod is bumbing his way along while Chris Wallace is asking some pretty tough questions. Axelrod, obviously, knows how weak his candidate is and with the addition of Sarah Palin the McCain campaign is surging.
Yes I did see that, but she did acknowledge that it was a mistake to unfairly attack Palin. I look forward to seeing Sarah answer the question about country first and I’m presuming she will be it to rest the first and only time she has to answer it.
Man, do I agree with THAT!
Regardless of whether or not McCain wins in November, Sarah Palin is energizing the Republican base.
Oop....scuse. Mike Wallace is his father.
Anyway...I think all the hoopla this past week about Palin going on Oprah is all smoke and mirrors.
You wanna know what I think?
Too bad, I’m going to tell you. I think Oprah approached the McCain campaign about getting Palin on and they turned her down. I think the subsequent nonsense about Oprah NOT wanting Palin on her show was all a big show for us fools out here in la-la land.
Hey, did Oprah invite Joe Biden to guest on her show?
I also don’t think Palin will be going on The View any time soon. The plan is, or should be as I surmise it, to keep Palin above all that “girlie” stuff. If she’s to be viewed as anything more than a pretty piece of campaign fluff it will hurt her career immensely.
A female really can be quite womanly without help from Oprah and the ladies on the View.
You are right on that, and even though the MSM is rooting for Obama, the people have had it with the media. They have proven themselves untrustworthy and the american public has seen it.
