Who Is Writing Sarah Palin's Speech? Karen Hughes? Big Media Is Putting A Lot Of Emphasis On It

[Median Democrat]

My take is that the GOP is going to bust out its best speech writers, and the reason why Sarah Palin has not been seen is because she is holed up in a hotel room reading and re-reading that speech again and again. Unlike Obama or Biden, who can actually do some campaigning before their big days, I think it is notable that Palin has been in complete radio silence the past few days.

My take is that the GOP is counting on Sarah to read that speech at least competently to give Big Media a credible opening to rush to her defense. In other words, so long as Palin does not sound too Canadian, and does not massively screw up, Big Media is going to go into a programmed swoon over Palin's ability to recite the speech. I bet that the RW pundits already have their talking points ready to go, and I only wish we could get a copy of these fawning scripts before she reads this speech.

Indeed, it is interesting that Big Media and the GOP ARE ALREADY PRAISING PALIN'S SPEECH! You would think that they would wait until she delivers it, yet they are already spreading word about what a great speech it will be.

So, anyone know who is writing her speech for her?
