6. My guess would be a trip to iraq, turns out she lied about that too

So she ll prolly have to pop over so that she can say at the debates, "I just got back from iraq and......"

8. Maybe she's home

11. no Botany, am not kidding.............. this the height of absurdity that the Republicans

have risen to..............McCain is taking Palin to NYC to meet with foreign officials. I think there is a celebration or anniversary of the U.N. going on.

I hope that afterward, it leaks out that he thinks she's a total dimwit.

15. They spun her novelty at the GOP convention with great success.

They want to keep that mythology going for as long as possible. The fewer the the interviews, the better from their POV.

And she's cramming furiously. Eventually she'll have to make at least a pretense of being well prepared for the position for which she is a candidate.

But not now. There's no compelling reason for her to take risks at this time.

16. She's in a cone of silence --

-- poring over Richard Hofstadter's "Anti-Intellectualism in American Life"

-- and left strict word that she was not to be interrupted.

20. she is not off today, but I saw the cancellations for this coming week here on DU

...places like CO, NV, and elsewhere.

Hamid Karzai has agreed to meet with her in NYC (I think on Tues. or Wed), and the GPO is scrambling to get more officials to meet with her (!)

Personally, she can meet with ten foreign officials in my opinion, and that still will not give her foreign policy experience. This whole thing is a big SHAM

I read of the FL cancellations here at DU, too. But I also read that they were back on.

The others I don't know.
