So when Palin secretly wears an ear piece during her debate, will the Demo's be smart enough |

1. That would be perfect. And if they could insert a few high-pitched screeches |
|
that would be even better.

Make the screech so loud and so long that she had to yank the ear piece out in sheer agony.
Now that would make for a "wardrobe malfunction" moment, wouldn't it?????!!!

However, they don't have anyone up to the Biden Challenge anyway. I guess Lieberman might help her.

4. Someone needs to sneak in a signal scrambler.....IR, RF, and Laser. |
|
Either that or hijack the signal and have her start praising Obama.

6. No way will she have an earpiece.... |
|
Edited on Thu Sep-18-08 10:31 PM by TwoSparkles
Wearing an ear piece and being able to listen, process and speak--is an art form.
Your brain has to be trained to pull off that feat.
Bush had been doing this since he was a Gov in Texas. He had it down to a science.
No way could Palin do it. It would be a complete disaster.

9. I wonder if her changing hairstyle is to provide cover for the earpiece? |
|
It seems like they are transitioning her for hiding an earpiece by having her wear her hair down more.

13. What if it wasn't entire sentences or paragraphs? What if it were just certain key words as hints? |
|
That could be pretty effective for the loose of tongue type and Sister Sarah strikes me as one who has that gift of gab.
She should be able to "get creative" if given a few key words.
I find it extremely hard to believe that the pukes would just throw her out there nekkid, on stage, with a high caliber Biden without some 911 - especially after seeing the horrid improvs she's been doing lately. I can't see how she can answer debate questions and make any reasonable sense.
I just can't.

14. I think Sarah Palin is smart... |
|
...but she's not that smart.
She's very socially savvy and she's tenacious and a fighter. However, she's just not that intelligent. Remember, six colleges in five years?
I think her head would probably explode if she had to try to remember all of that information, keep it straight and then listen for key words while she talks.
I just don't see it happening.
Like you, I don't know how this will be possible.
I have such doubts about this, after hearing her talk in the interviews that she's done--and I seriously wonder if she'll even make it to the debates! There will be some excuse or major debacle.
How's that for being cynical?

11. I don't think they'll need. There's always a few seconds delay. |

She'll just pause for a period of time and say, "In what capacity, Charlie?" as she stalls for time.

Who cares if he will be called sexist for hugging her.

34. That's what I was going to say! |
|
LOL Maybe not a hug, but a pat on the back & then say, "Mrs. Palin, is this a hearing aid or were you planning to CHEAT during this debate???" We won't let a lumpy jacket get by this time!
Not sure if it matters anyway since we all know she's not so bright, educated or qualified & it hasn't stopped the MSM from kissing her frozen ass! If we could control the spin, that would be another story.

21. Presumably, it would be a spread spectrum or frequency hopping system |
|
So, even if you could watch it with a spectrum analyzer, you couldn't track it.
You'd have to do a wide spectrum jamming that would interfere with the rest of the electronics in the vicinity.

26. She won't need an "earpiece" |
|
There are various hearing aid devices that can be attached, or even incorporated into spectacle frames. They transmit by bone conduction. Not too far fetched to rig one of these things to receive a remote signal rather than the usual mic signal.. http://www.spectaclehearingsystems.co.uk/?gclid=CN-t9cjU55UCFQHilAod7TifeA

"Hey Sarah, is the volume ok on the earpiece that you're wearing because you're too goddamned stupid to stand up here and try to pretend you know what you're talking about"?

30. I think Biden should be really smooth about it. |

I think Biden should very casually lean over and say it an endearing low volume quick bit "Hey Sarah your ear piece is falling" .
The she freaks out and checks to make sure it hasn't
BUSTED.

32. Give her one, give her two, give her a squad of people flashing secret |
|
coded messages from the floor. She lacks the basic intellectual capacity to process multiple streams of input effectively. If she has people coaching her while she's trying to chew gum the gum will just sit there.
Don't worry about it, Joe's got it handled.

The ground rules need to be firm.

Assuming Falin does wear an earpiece, is there a way to pick up on the frequency of the signal and jam it ~~ or better yet, give her the wrong info to reply with?
:evilgrin:
Imagine trying to complain about that!!! LOL!!!

40. Except modern secure radio doesn't work that way... |
|
Even cheap wireless phones use what is called frequency hopping or spread spectrum methods.
Basically the transmitter and the receiver are synchronized to "change channels" very quickly and in accordance with a random sequence that the transmitter and receiver both know, but which cannot be predicted externally. The entire point is to evade interception or jamming.
Now, you could connect a spark plug to a coil and put out garbage all over the RF spectrum, but it will also interfere with all of the other communication and PA equipment in the auditorium.
