They’ve effectively killed all the momentum Palin brought back to the Party.

Wonderful.

They have done more than that. The Palin effect been more than negated. Look for a dem turnout advantage of 15-20 points in upcoming polls, overtaking the highs from last spring. The republicans have turned off their base not necessarily for supporting the bailout but by the meek effort to shape it. After all the bluster about suspending the campaign, Mac has been virtually invisible, while Obama but active, with his party supporting him.

The problem isn’t the repubs in the House, but the one leading the ticket. He was on national TV today, blaming this problem on greedy rich people. Would it really have hurt to point out the folks who made out like bandits are democrats, and they were helped immensely by Dodd & Frank?

But no, Mr Bipartisan was sounding like a Democrat, blaming anyone except the damn corrupt democrats and their corruption. hence my tagline...

How can we expect the average American to connect the dots, when the top of our ticket refuses to do so?

I like Palin - she has good instincts - but she isn’t the top of the ticket, and she is too willing to play the populist herself. Where is the ringing defense of capitalism and freedom that Ronald Reagan epitomized?
