Another chance for the assholes to not only exploit 9-11, but Track Palin's deployment ceremony. Discussing her son is the only time the Governor seems to appear genuine, she looks terrified, as any mother would be. Using a mother's real grief regarding her son heading into war is about as sick as it gets. I'm sure Gibson will be there to hand her a hankie. This stinks so bad I can only hope they overplay it like they have everything else. And those awful polls? Polls are bullshit, almost all of them - complete bullshit. Trust me on that. Use them as a very loose general trend indicator, not definitive truth one way or the other, I don't care what anyone says. McCain and Palin just got a temporary POW guilt and uninformed beat down female bounce (remember many women still think McCain is pro-choice, even his wife doesn't know his stance). I'm convinced more and more every day that this was planned all along, made to look like a hasty decision to push the mavericky thing and so they have an excuse for Plain being a loose canon/liability, while whining it's sexism to point those things out. It's actually just an extension of the mind-fuck games we've gotten used to over the last 8 years, except, I didn't think it was possible, somehow they've made it even more disgusting. Once the strategists figured out it was going to be Obama that the GOP, the party of bigots, were going to have to vilify, they knew they had to have a polarizing figure to take positive attention away from Obama, and negative attention away from McCain. Otherwise, everyone would know way too much about McCain by the end of October and be desensitized to his POW status (remember, Obama has been vetted by everyone, McCain was vetted by Bush - eight years ago). Palin was brought into neutralize white guilt. Those bigots who feel like they should vote for Obama on principle and platform, but really don't feel comfortable voting for an "inexperienced" black man. Now they don't have to, they can vote for the woman! I know it sounds gross, but these are the same ignorant cunts that gave us the last 8 years. I have full confidence this situation was planned for by the Obama campaign, which explains the nicey-nice passive aggressiveness in dealing with McCain and Palin. They have to publicly show some respect as the media takes the bait in painting McCain as simply the war hero "Maverick" and Palin his "Maverick" damsel in distress. She's distressed because of big bad press and their horrible sexism, which the media will try to deflect toward Obama. As it has been all along, the surrogates and the rest of us have to control the narrative and actively take them down on the issues until the debates, when Obama and Biden will take it from there. Those polls affect the game, they don't just measure the score. We can't let them affect our game any more than the stupid rumors (which may even prove to be true) regarding the fucking Palins and their typical twisted suburban lifestyle (their flaws will only endure them more to hypocritical suburbanites).
Women surrogates and writers (and intelligent men with balls) have to sharpen their knives and channel their anger over the disrespect that Palin and the McCain campaign (and now the media) are showing toward the female gender in every single fucking thing they're doing. We're the only ones who will be able to ruthlessly attack her on every level for the next few weeks.
I wonder how long we'll have to leave the Governor alone once her son leaves for Kuwait?
