Emails and phone calls of Palin and Troopergate about to be released
Edited on Mon Sep-01-08 11:42 PM by zulchzulu
As seen on CNN a minute ago... Kyra Phillips reported it on Larry King. Talk about a big ass grenade in the McCain camp. Even minutes about the news was out, Freep excusniks like Susan Molinari are already adding the "if McCain properly vetted..."

McCain stooges are NOW vetting her.

Here we go... buh-bye Sarah. Don't let the door hit where the Good Lord split ya...

:rofl:

3. Yep. Apparently they are not good news for Palin, according to Kyra on CNN.

4. Who is releasing the stuff???
CNN reported earlier tonight, that McCain had the troopergate situation investigated, and
that he was positively convinced that she did nothing wrong.

This could be an attempt by the Republicans to fabricate a bunch of fake information about
her involvement, in order to stem the tide of horrid news about Palin.

I hope this is news and information coming from a legitimate investigation--and not a information that
has been packaged by the Republicans as a public relations gimmick.

5. They are going through the files, according to CNN reports
Perhaps the McCain posse is up there to try to drag stuff away or fight it legally... from what was stated, it does not look good for Palin in any way. And to hear the tape of phone calls and see the emails where she was stepping WAY OUT of her governor role is going to be priceless in time for the RNC convention.

She. Is. Toast.

16. Judging from the newspapers. They don't like her all that much out there
They may be helping the National reporters.

7. So, question: what would be worse for the GOP? For Sarah to go down in flames at the convention?
Or for her to leave/be kicked off the ticket, when the whole thing is over and they've invested beaucoup time, money, and political capital in her--after "her face is already on the tea towels," so to speak?

11. The GOP has a small window to throw her under the bus BEFORE she is confirmed as VP
I'm not sure what day she is supposed to be confirmed and when she accepts the nomination, but it will be worse for McCain if he has a "Thomas Eagleton" on his hands.

First, it will piss off the American Taliban base and it will show he can have all the experience in the World, but his decisions are fraught with errors.

23. I've been thinking about that all day.
The way I see it, it's lose/lose. If he dumps her or "accepts her resignation" he's confirmed as a reckless, clueless, pandering bumbler. If he keeps her, they have to keep polishing a humongous turd, and it ain't getting any shinier.

Fucked by his first executive decision. Amazing.

17. The sharks are going to go into a frenzy!
All I can say is that the GOP wants Hurricane Hanna to hurry the hell up. Maybe Palin does that kind of "praying" too...
