the nation, No Chris Matthews, no independent tough
questioning. And she wants to be commander in chief??

1. "Where's Sarah?"...you have a nice rallying cry there.

2. So when she shows up and gets hit with softballs from Tom Brokaw on MTP

Next Sunday, and she aces it...will she then be crowned Queen? Cause that's what's going to happen.

Big build up to a raving success.

3. good morning.

I sent this out to friends yesterday.

She is refusing to talk to reporters. She is unavailable for interviews. Chris Matthews just asked a campaign representative when exactly he can expect to talk to the nominee. The answer from the McCain campaign was "two weeks". So I'm officially ignoring her for two weeks. This is ridiculous. What is this, a cone of silence? After touting her as a great personality and promising, "you'll love her once you get to know her". We don't get an opportunity to find out more about her? This is absurd.

Someday they'll bring her out of hiding, but after this dog-and-pony show, I don't care when that happens. They can keep her in hiding for the rest of the campaign for all I care.

McCain himself canceled with Larry King after a CNN host asked a tough question of a McCain campaign representative. Now CNN declines to have campaign representatives other than McCain on during prime time, saying, give us the candidate or your campaign doesn't get any primetime.

Personally, I would like to see her respond to these two articles:

ABCNEWS: Attacks, Praise Stretch Truth at GOP Convention
http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/wireStory?id=5720999
On Obama, Earmarks, Palin Less Than Honest
http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/Conventions/story?id=5726571&page=1

If we could only get a hold of her, my favorite question would be, "After you said 'Thanks But No Thanks' to the infamous bridge to nowhere, what did you do with the money the federal government had already contributed to the cause?"

These seem like things Palin ought to respond to herself. I am not willing to accept second- or third-hand answers to these serious allegations. The silence is deafening.

5. Unfortunately, the public DID see her yesterday on CNN, speaking to a crowd.

And the public doesn't CARE if she isn't on MTP.

6. I think the spin is that her son is deploying to Iraq this week so she is spending time with him

[thoughtcrime1984]

7. She's cramming for her test

If you didn't know a damn thing about anything, would you want to be grilled on the issues? She'll cram on all the issues for the debate with Biden. He'll still hand her her ass, even though Rove will arm her with zingers.

8. Please keep posting these. nt

9. two words....loose cannon

[SaveAmerica]

10. She's farther right than W, and they want to keep her in seclusion just like W

Do we really want more of this?

11. Why talk to people who have tried to slime U?

The Majority of the American people will not care if Sarah Palin doesn't go on MTP, FTN,ThisWeek, or most of the other political shows. Most of the people locally here in WV don't watch "those DC assholes". The rest of the country will not be surprised if she refuse to sit down with Chris Matthews, since he is still getting a shiver up his leg for Obama, and his network participated in the attempts to trash Sarah Palin and her family this last week.

12. She is in class with Bush's assholes!
