To the greatest extent possible, I would like her to say that Campaign 2008 is over, she is leaving it behind, and talking about the future.
You said — “To the greatest extent possible, I would like her to say that Campaign 2008 is over, she is leaving it behind, and talking about the future.”
She’s been doing that, but at the same time, I think she’s correcting all the false allegations and stupid information that has been put out about her.
Like here is one that was released by the New York Times showing that the “Africa is a country” comment was an elaborate HOAX pulled on the media (who never bothered following up on it).
Well, it has been followed up on — now and the story shows that it was a blogger’s hoax that was perpetrated in the MSM.

And where that poster said the following about that HOAX (of Africa being a country, by Palin)...
“The frustrating thing is many people heard the info and now believe its true. I had a friend the other night (a dem of course) who told me that McCain was doing fine until he got Palen, but because of all of the proof that she was stupid and unfit for office came out, thats why he lost.
This stuff will float around out there forever in peoples minds, and I fear she has been Quaylized.”
NOW..., this is what Sarah Palin needs to *hammer on* — for the future, so she can “innoculate” herself against future such stuff and make sure that everyone knows that it was a HOAX, and that other stuff from “anonymous sources” is very suspect.
I think she’s doing a good job of it from the interviews that I’ve seen...
