Prediction: Campaign Dumping Palin - Spreading Smears in Media to BLAME Media for her needing to GO
Jake Tapper is writing that he knew Nothing about the latest Enquirer Story about Todd not being the father of Sarah Palin's baby, he only found out when the McCain campaign SENT IT TO HIM. Go to TPM and check it out.

I believe the Campaign is SPREADING SMEARS, and Blaming the Media, creating false outrage in order to in the end BLAME the media when they give Palin the BOOT.

Gotta be a Bad Guy, and it's a new development as of Today. They are now saying her Speech will include the Media assassination of her Character.

They are using this as an excuse for McCain's reckless toss of the Dice, the MEDIA will be to Blame, probably US, the Far left..

Watch them Mike the audience for BOOS then the Media is mentioned.

It's a set up. Why ELSE would the McCain Campaign send these smears around to liberal sites? We've already Vetter that Rotten woman.

I smell Rove, getting her OUT, trying to save McCain.

1. It's a debacle of epic proportions. Blaming the media isn't going to sell.

3. I wish the media would walk out
just say, "Well, have yourself a nice little convention here, we'll see you later" and watch them flood their Depends..

I'm worried that a media person will get pummeled by rude thugs on the floor, they're riling them all up..

Once again, no issues.

4. It'll sell with the nutball religious reich
That's all the Palin pick was designed to do: light a fire on the conservative pharisees.

6. And steal Obama's thunder
while we don't discuss ISSUES, and they WON'T..

Obama was saying that today, "Did you hear any of them discuss Issues yesterday? No? That's right.."

2. Send this quote around
"When I hear a statement like that coming from a woman candidate with any kind of perceived whine about that excess criticism or, you know, maybe a sharper microscope put on her, I think, man, that doesn't do us any good. Women in politics, women in general wanting to progress this country. I don't think it's, it bodes well for her -- a statement like that."

-Sarah Palin 2008

5. I think McCain got punked by the National Enquirer
I think that they hinted that they might have a story involving Sarah Palin having an affair, and McCain tried to get in front of it - except that maybe the Enquirer isn't even going with the story!!!

I've been loling about this all afternoon.

8. "Ladies and Gentlemen, we have an announcement..."
"Due to an unforeseen family emergency, Governor Palin will not be making her scheduled speech tonight. We apologize for the short notice, however we will be alloting an extra ten minutes to the remaining speakers in order to keep this convention momentum going. Again, due to an unforeseen family emergency, Governer Palin will not be making her scheduled speech tonight. We apologize for the short notice. Thank you."
