I don’t think he intended to reference this to Palin, that being said after the lip stick joke at the convention there is no doubt that the crowd associated this with the Govenor of Alaska. He certainly did nothing to qualify his remarks.
I dunno....it's almost starting to look that way.
I mean, can someone who's crafty enough, and ambitious enough to climb all the way up the ladder through Chicago politics, then Illinois state politics, then win his party's presidential nomination really be this stupid?
I'm sure that lots of folks will reflexively say "yes", but something's not adding up about all these incredibly stupid gaffes. And, coming so late in the campaign, when the control factor is likely to be greatest on either camp's statements..... I just don't know.
