Vanity: Fox News Says Palin Did Not Know Africa Was Continent, Not Country

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.)

Screw Fox and the horse they rode in on. I haven’t watched or read Fox news in over a year. The quality of their reporting is positively high school.

I don’t think it’s scapegoating.
I think it’s Romney people trying to do as much damage to the person they see as their biggest obstacle to the 2012 nomination.

These rats will only drag themselves down, not her. Sarah Palin is a force to be reckoned with - no wonder so many are scared to death of her, on the left and the quickly dying “RINO” wing of the Republican Party.

So the McCain aides - who bashed Sarah all along - and sent out their resumes early - and advised the magic campaign suspension for the bailout - is still going after Palin?

You expecting that anyone will hire you after the smashing loss and retarded advice there, folks?

Good luck!

The moderates who have run this party into the ground, are just making a pre-emptive strike to try to maintain control of the party. It ain’t happening.

Like I’m going to believe anything I see on television news ever. My viewing will consist of netflix, and How Clean is your House on BBC..which is awful because they run the same eight or so episodes over and over...

That's got to be total B.S.

EVERYONE:

PLEASE POST NAMES OF McCAIN CAMPAIGN STAFF WHO ARE TRYING TO SLANDER, LIBEL, SLUR, SMEAR, AND DENEGRATE SARAH PALIN.

LET US "KNOW THEIR NAMES."

Rumors have sprung up that they are Romney backers (which would seem thematic, considering their smear campaign against Mike Huckabee and John McCain). Is there verification?

Who?
