[Psalm 73]

"Palin isn’t panning out."

Don't go for the head fake (she's a basketball player) - the deception is not aimed at us, she's on our team.

[Jonty30]

She’s on the team.

She’s just not the captain you are looking for.

[DB]

Well I'd say it is unclear whether we're “head faking” ourselves at this point. Wishful thinking doesn't make something so. And “deception” to what end? It matters little if her enemies think she's running or not. They've already thrown everything they've got at her. What matters is her supporters and deceiving them does not help her or our cause. It is easy to rationalize inconvenient details to provide hope where there may be little. I think we're flirting on that edge right now.
