Is this possibly the strategy of the media: to cause those who might consider voting for her to decide it is just too much baggage?

That's been their obvious strategy from the very beginning. However, I'm not sure it will work for them.

Right now, this sounds like wishful thinking by the MSM.

It didn’t work when it was tried with Bill Clinton. His approval ratings kept going up. I don’t see it working with Governor Palin. Americans don’t seem to approve of “piling on.”

I think “Liberal fatigue” and “Media fatigue” will develop before any effect on Palin will set in.

The opposite is happening. All the media attacks are doing is inoculating her and the more the MSM attacks, the more popular she gets. Normally, negative attacks will have a detrimental effect on a politician's standing but not this time. Sarah seems to have the same Teflon Coating Reagan had that frustrated the media so much.

Palin fatigue?

No, what is happening is MSM fatigue.

I think you’re worrying your pretty little head over nothing.

Palin isn't running for President. She has so unnerved the lightweight Obama and his media puppetmasters that they have completely lost what little perspective they have had during this campaign.

It's a daily trainwreck watching these fools stumble and bumble.

If she fights, and we fight too, this could wind up being the MSM’s death by a thousand cuts. It’s up to all of us.

I think there's something to what you're saying, but there's not enough time for Sarah Palin to peak AND for the momentum to reverse. With just seven weeks to go to the election, we're in good shape. People may start feeling sorry for Obama, but sympathy won't turn into votes for President. Sympathy could get someone votes for, say, Congressman, but not for President. Stay optimistic.

So far the accusers have received the cuts from their own swords.

Sarah actually gave birth to her own baby.
Sarah told McCain about her pregnant daughter before McCain announced her as VP.
Sarah didn’t try to abort her baby by flying while pregnant.

Obama has been campaigning for 19 months straight. It’s more likely that people have Obama fatigue. Sarah is fresh and different ... and just 50 days before the election.

I pray for a McCain/Palin victory.

First--NO...the DBM wishes this were the case, but she's doing just fine.

Second--Despite her meteoric rise...--can someone explain this one to me? Meteors fall. Why do folks keep using this annoying phrase?

Yo Tang, did Bubba Clinton die from a thousand cuts? Nope. The public rallied behind him and his approval rating went up. The media is attacking Palin much worse than Bubba during impeachment. I say keep the cuts coming. She will be Teflon in no time; she is basically there already. Oh yeah!
