So, It Looks Like Caribou Barbie Is a Marketing Flop and Has Been Recalled

Will they reissue a new, improved version, or send it to some beleaguered 3rd world nation?

Looks like Sarah Palin will be heading for the Big House, not the White House. Ted Stevens will appreciate the company!

1. Can you elaborate?

I'm not getting what your post is about.

2. Cancelled Apearances, Dis-Invitations, Stonewalling Subpeonas

It's not going away, but snowballing. She will go under in an avalanche and wonder what happened (and blame it all on somebody else, of course).

3. She was always a tactic

and soon, Romney will look pretty good to everyone, even McCain.

He will do ANYTHING to win...ANYTHING

11. Not to mention a damn shortsighted tactic.

The funny thing about excitement is that it is fleeting unless it is based on something substantial. People are getting used to the idea of her now, and some of them are going to think about what she actually means.

4. Damn. What do I do with this now???

5. That? Is TEH BRILLIANT!

6. Ebay

7. Very good!

Where can I get that?

Seriously, this Palin is a piece of work. Last night on Olberman, Howard Fineman basically described her as a pushy bitch. He said that she is "very aggressive" and if McCain thinks he is going to be able to push her into a corner he "had another thing coming to him."

8. What have I missed? Is there bona fide speculation he's going to drop her?

The man has a real problem with women, so I bet he was extremely unhappy when she mentioned the Palin-McCain ticket.

9. heeeeeeeeeeee. True that. Let's use the disappearance of Carly as a recent example

of what happens when you piss on the maverick.

Geebus, I'd love to be a fly on the wall!

10. Isn't Alaska a third world nation? It's right next to Russia :)

They'll probably put a new face on her (figuratively) and try to re-market her. A new brand will only need to last seven weeks, and the cream won't curdle in that amount of time. It will need to be a sugar product, though :D

(good morning!) :hi:

12. I think it just shows McCain gave up on CA. She was uninvited to the Isreal support

rally because they didn't want it to become "political", and it had. I think she is done overall. They will lose, and she will fade from the scene. Unless AK sends her to represent them. In my opinion she has risked her future in politics for this, and it isn't going to payout. At least I hope it isn't going to. I hope she just goes away and doesn't return. The only thing I am concerned about now is the voter fraud-suppression. We can't let this even be close.
