Four weeks to go...
... and things seem to be breaking Obama's way now. It appears it's becoming his election to lose.
Meanwhile, Palin is crossing over from an asset to a liability. Maybe I should stop writing about her questionable character, and hope that she just keeps, ya know, doin' her maverick thingy.

If I read the link correctly, it's BEFORE the VP debate happened. How is that relevant today?

From the Washington Post:
Worse, Palin's routine attacks on the media have begun to spill into ugliness. In Clearwater, arriving reporters were greeted with shouts and taunts by the crowd of about 3,000. Palin then went on to blame Katie Couric's questions for her "less-than-successful interview with kinda mainstream media." At that, Palin supporters turned on reporters in the press area, waving thunder sticks and shouting abuse. Others hurled obscenities at a camera crew. One Palin supporter shouted a racial epithet at an African American sound man for a network and told him, "Sit down, boy."
Let's hope rational, thoughtful people will see her as a liability to the whole country, not just John McCain's campaign.

Yeah, but they misspelled Jack J-O-H-N. That happens to me sometimes too.

In recent McCain and Palin rallies audience members reacted to Obama's name by yelling "Terrorist!" and "Kill him!"
The worst of it is that the candidates don't call their supporters on these inappropriate behaviors which provides what amounts to - at the least - tolerance and - at most - approval.
McCain has indeed embraced the dark side.

I am already soooo burned out on listening to Sarah Palins' Lingo!! She is sickenly sarcastic and FAKE...... Right now Osama and Joe Biden have to up with her "Big Mouth" so not to run off the female vote. I am looking foward to her disappearing back to Alaska....I MUST NOT be the only one who can see though her "Soccer Mommy" facade. I have no respect for a women like Sarah Palin who exploits her five children to climb the polital ladder! Her Husband's testies must be the size of peanuts.... Please do not bother firing back, this is my opinion and I do not expect anyone to agree but I had to put it out there.

CORRECTION, please forgive my horrid typos, "OBAMA" and "Political" it is 4:30am and I AM Tired! I couldn't agree more about McCain, he has embraced the dark side because he is running a desperate campaign. Racists blow me away "especially" when they are so public with their taunts and then McCain and Palin stand there and tolerate it? Unbelievable! This is a scary world we live in. Peace to you all!
