Even though bush ran on the 'outsider' tag in 2000 and 80% of the country thinks we're going wrong, the race is close. It makes no sence. Apparently people believe the 'evil media' propoganda and don't bother to check the facts. Now fox is promoting Palin as if they are the republican propoganda machine, without regard for facts. She claimed to have sold the jet at a profit, but it was actually sold for a loss. Scale it up to national numbers, and in four years we'll be breaking another record debt. How do people live through republican rule, experience how they end up doing exactly the opposite of what they say, and still vote for them? I disagree with what Obama said about republicans think Americans are stupid: they know Americans are stupid, and they have 2000 and 2004 to prove it.

Ignorance - interesting. Any chance in making political hay of this. I'm wondering if the freepers might viscrally react to the hint of a "shadow governor". After all, it would make sense to the James Dobson worldview that the wife submit to her husband - therefore we're really looking at Mr. Palin as the real authority ? Of course, there have always been hints that Shrub is a sock puppet for some unnamed neocon. 23. Ignorance – interesting. Any chance in making political hay of this.

Does this mean that Rice has walked "off the reservation" in terms of trying to downplay Obama's experience? Surely someone who has actually traveled abroad, lived abroad, with roots in both the US and Africa, etc. would meet Rice's criteria. Watch for Rice to soon become as popular as Scott McClellan at GOP gatherings. “there are different kinds of experiences in life that help one to deal with matters of foreign policy.”
