Quoted: She can make game-changing agitation plays that rouse her home team and provoke the other side into counterattacks that – 100% of the time – end up punishing the team who hits back. Democrats would be smart to understand her as such, and I see a lot of reaction that doesn't seem to grasp what Palin is doing and the value she's providing. I see a lot of Democrats taking a lot of bait.

Quoted: The interviews made clear why Americans should worry about Ms. Palin’s thin résumé and lack of experience. Consider her befuddlement when Mr. Gibson referred to President Bush’s “doctrine” and her remark about having insight into Russia because she can see it from her state.
Quoted: But that is not what troubled us most about her remarks — and, remember, if they were scripted, that just means that they reflect Mr. McCain’s views all the more closely.

Heckuva job Brownie, heckuva job. A fine example of Palin's much touted "executive experience". More "screw the experts I'll trust my gut and hire my buddies" irresponsibility is just what this country needs.
Where is the outrage from fiscal conservatives? I guess they're all sitting on their hands unless RP gets on the ballot?

Quoted: Therefore, what we should carefully watch for tonight is the tenor of McCain's speech. He's got to reach for independents, and to do that he's got to sound like he's full of practical solutions.
