[...] When do you suppose the Democrats will stop trying to under-estimate Sarah Palin? [...]

omapian, I moved your comments on the Obama/lipstick story here since another poster linked up to his lipstick comments in that same post (in the comments section - and I noted it in an update).

Since it is OK to state McCain votes 90% of the time with the Bush administration it can be noted Obama worshiped with Rev Wright for 20 years and left less than one year ago – that is over 95% agreement. And he never publicly disagreed with Ayers- that’s 100% accord.
BTW, if experience matters to the DNC, they could have placed Biden on the top of their ticket.
Statistics can be used to make just about any claim one chooses in an attempt to sway public opinion. People who have no clue have an opinion. The scary thing is that they can show up in great numbers on election day while people who feel strongly about a single issue may reject a worthy candidate, or simply stay home on election day.
BIG NEWS for those in the DNC who hate GWB – the Constitution guarantees his term ends on Jan 20, 2009. It is OK to give up on the recount and the hanging chads!

T-Steel, what is the deal with the ~~moderate~~ extreme voice folks doing crap like this???? It is understandable that people HAVE an opinion. It is NOT understandable that these characters make up what is ethical or illegal or whatever they want to do to SMEAR somebody. Per diem was paid legally and it gets paid to employees all over Alaska BY THE RULES ALLOWED. Tell your fellows over there to START getting things right with respect to the rule of law.... Ignorance is no excuse at this point. It is now lying if this stuff continues over there in my mind...

Yeah I remember Yo. Whatever can be used, will be used by the elitists in the MSM. If they could pervert a story they will. They said themselves that they got John Kerry 15 extra points in 2004. Any other situation would have made Lurch un-electable. The MSM HAD to do what they did to make it look close. – Lorica

T wrote, “at least he’s staying on his “McCain = Bush” message”

It’s an incorrect message.

Look at it this way with statistics T.

McCain is the Rebublican who crossed party lines the MOST statistically.

ALL members of the House and Senate consistently vote with their own party between 90% and 95% of the time on any given year. For Mr. spin Obama and his ilk to keep pointing out that McCain has voted with Bush 90% of the time it IGNORES the fact that that is the same statistic for ALL members of the House and Senate but that McCain is THE member of the Senate that has crossed party lines the MOST.

He is at the edge statistically.

You get it T? Or will you keep playing and spinning?

To keep doing so would be …. lying… Yep. I said it.

Lorica, If you recall, the dems said that everything that the swiftboaters said in 04 was attributable the the bush campaign. Now the dems say that obama has nothing to do with what the rest of the left is doing.

this is why they must be defeated. they would govern just the way they campaign. or worse.

factcheck is owned by annenburg, the same people that used to be obama’s employer. I suppose if factcheck used to employ palin, it would be perfectly ok with the left. right.

The reason the feds took over fnm and fre, as has been stated too many times to mention, is that there was ambiguity about whether the fed was behind it. So, the people that say the fed wasn’t behind them are equally as wrong as palin.

We’ll be defending all the way till the election, and then we’ll still be defending at her inaug.

T-Steel, Do you honestly believe that most of this garbage about Sarah Palin hasn’t had the approval of the Obama Campaign??? Did you see David Axelrod on Fox News Sunday, what a pathetic lowlife he is. He reiterated some of the rumors and brought up the ugly things that have been said about Sarah. Exactly who is Axelrod to the Obama campaign?? – Lorica

Factcheck is a solid site that debunks rumors no matter the candidate.

The Gov. Palin hyperventilation by the Left is puzzling to me. For the Left, there’s plenty of issues that you can go after Palin about (and I’m sure she will come right back). But after going nuts (and rightfully so) concerning the slime thrown at Senator Obama (Muslim Machurian candidate, Larry Sinclair, etc), going after Palin the same way just reeks of desperation. To Obama’s credit, at least he’s staying on his “McCain = Bush” message and not engaging in “Destroy the Tower of Palin” tactics.

And for the record, I’m not a member of the Left, I’m a member of the Slant Wing…

Throw it up and see what sticks…

I tell ya, by the time this election is over (and perhaps for the next four years) Sarah Palin is going to need her own janitorial crew as part of her entourage to deal with all the dirt being flung…

They’re going to have to try harder.

Somehow, I don’t think they’ll give up anytime soon…
