No interviews? No public appearances? Bizarre

Isn't the VP debate in a month or so? I suspect she'll be scarce until then.

11. They're already canceling some of her appearances.
We'll see how long they can get away with it.

3. What other choice do they have...

they'd never admit that they made a huge mistake. If they weren't embarrassed by her, they'd have her all over the news. The fact that they're hiding her speaks volumes - they know she sucks too!

12. THIS ONE?
ENQURIER RESPONDS TO MCCAIN/PALIN 
Wed Sep 03 2008 18:19:21 ET 

"The National Enquirer's coverage of a vicious war within
Sarah Palin's extended family includes several newsworthy
revelations, including the resulting incredible charge of an
affair plus details of family strife when the Governor's
daughter revealed her pregnancy. Following our John Edwards'
exclusives, our political reporting has obviously proven to be
more detail-oriented than the McCain campaign's vetting
process. Despite the McCain camp's attempts to control press
coverage they find unfavorable, The Enquirer will continue to
pursue news on both sides of the political spectrum."

6. They arent. They are doing exactly what they did pre-speech. Building up interest
and expectation.

8. She's been campaigning. They arent hiding her from the voters. There was a piece

a couple days ago talking about Palin being front and center on the stump with McCain taking a back seat.

What they are doing makes sense politically. Look at last nights numbers. They are getting the attention they want, what they do with it will be another matter.
