The Palin strategy and how to defeat it
Edited on Wed Sep-10-08 12:24 AM by madmusic
The San Fransisco Chronicle lays out the Palin battle plan.

http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2008/09/09/MNI112QPR6.DTL">McCain-Palin '08 virtually using the same script as Schwarzenegger '03

Know thy enemy and know how to defeat thy enemy. Here's how.

McCain is trying to hide Palin. They admit it.

Instead McCain attacks the media to sidetrack the issues away from a presidential nominee who would try to fool the public. That's what McCain is doing. His campaign admits it.

It worked with Governor Schwarzenegger and his approval rating plunged. Plunged. California has the worst deficit in the country. His own Prison Guard Union is working on a recall.

Is that what you want? We vet candidates for a reason. McCain is shrewd, but do we want more of the same old tricky politics? Do we want another president who would fool you like that?

Do you want to be manipulated or led to a better future?

2. Interesting. Thanks.
But if she didn't abuse her power in office, and it appears she may have, I'm not sure it's enough.

3. CNN debunked most of the Palin stuff posted here
Everything except the environment and troopergate. We can't count on those two as enough.
