secondly, do you think for one minute that the first time Palin makes a mistake or gaffe, innocent or not, that it won't be pounced on within minutes by team Obama, in an effort to score points? if you don't then I have a bridge to nowhere to sell you.

i think mccain had also used the lipstick on a pig line...but that was before palin used the lipstick on a pit bull reference. obama probably knew it would bring about the reaction he got from his audience, but who cares? it has nothing to do with policy, domestic or foreign.
i made myself listen a bit to some of the conservative radio, a few mins of rush and then sean. one thing hannity said made me laugh. something about attacking a woman. wait a minute. this guy was one who was accusing others of sexism, but isn't that comment the same thing? is she a pol who happens to be a woman, or a woman who's running for an office but is off limits because she's a woman? ridiculous, it's off topic, and tells you nothing about what either candidate will do as president.
and of course if palin/mccain make a mistake, obama will pounce on it. it always cracks me up when either side takes on the role of victim.
