The "Cafferty on Palin" video needs even more exposure
I'm sure there have been threads on this video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8__aXxXPVc

But this is really important. Most of the people I know, through work, family, friends, etc are all pretty middle of the road moderates. Sure, some swing to the left or right, but none are committed to a party. When I've shown them this video, their only reaction is "wow". This resonates with moderates, and here's why.

You have Palin, a woman claiming to be ready for the VP spot, spitting up words as if she's reading from a scrabble board. And then there's Jack Cafferty. He doesn't do the usually spin where most reporters try to soften the blow. No, he lays it out, plain and simple. No BS, just straight to the point, she is not ready.

But the real damage isn't that she stumbled so bad in the interview. It's that now if she DOESN'T stumble in the debate, people will think she's just re-hashing memorized lines. That's where the real damage lies. People see this, and it's "damned if you do, damned if you don't" for her in the debates.

Just my $.02
