the McCain/Palin thing is now officially in deep sh-t. The conservatives who have now come out against her include Charles Krauthammer (uber neocon), David Frum (Bush speechwriter), most of the National Review, and most recently George Will, a true conservative elder. But the death-blow went to middle-of-the-road, okay liberal, Fareed Zakharia, who pointed out that it was not that Palin couldn't answer very well in interviews, it was that "she clearly didn't understand the questions. This is a level of incompetence we have not seen before".
Indeed, and that all makes Thursday's VP debate just about the most important in history. If Palin can somehow hold her own and be effective, then it will be one of the most stunning turnarounds in history, and the whole anti-elitist thing will be retched up, like, a billion notches.
I think he meant 'ratcheted'.
Or maybe not.

Nice pick up PC. Retched is a much better word for it.
Ratshit. ed.
Hee.
Spot on. If half the stories in circulation about her practices as gov. of Alaska are true, she's not only uninformed and lacking in intelligence, but noxious in the extreme.
Cheers. Hope the back is on the mend.

Well until I saw this, I figured Palin was toast tomorrow night, but then came this from HuffPo:

Ah, malapropisms. I just heard a radio presenter mistakenly pronounce 'The Exclusive Brethren' as 'The Elusive Brethren'.
Elusive. It's just like being 'exclusive', only more so.
