| bardicverse said: The simple answer is - they're scared. See, when Hillary Clinton conceded to Obama, all the women voters supporting Clinton went to Obama. Now there's another woman in the running, and the Obama supporters are afraid they will lose the women voters to McCain's side. Sarah Palin levels out the playing field, making this upcoming election a much closer race than previously expected.

I think even McCain would agree that Palin may be a political liability after everything that has happened this weekend. The pregnant daughter story is getting national attention, as is her reversal on the "Bride to Nowhere."
McCain should be scared that Palin will sink his ticket.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
