I take it all back about Palin..

McCain did, in fact, do something smart in choosing her. He's led a totally uninteresting and almost ignorable campaign before now; she's stirred up all kinds of media attention with her scandals.

Bravo! McCain's campaign got some attention and free media coverage finally! Now if he'd only know how to take advantage of this... oh, well.

I am completely fascinated with the secret baby rumors. It's like the Republican Party has somehow transformed into a really entertaining season of 90210.

The whole baby thing is interesting but largely forgettable. I'm a bit annoyed that everyone's focused on the pregnancies themselves and not the link between teen pregnancy and her support of abstinence-only education.

That being said, the pregnancies scandal seems to be a vehicle for revealing even more about her. For example, apparently since she took office, pork spending in Alaska has INCREASED, to the highest per-capita in the country.

Re: Maybe Try Talking To Them

It's more than that.

They're also pissed because he really did surprise them, and they had nothing ready to go. It's sort of a big "FU, if you're going to make us actually do work; we're going to report what we find instead of your talking points."
