In Search of Sarah Palin (I think she has aged 10 years already)
http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,1845139,00.html?xid=feed-yahoo-nation

By Nancy Gibbs Saturday, Sep. 27, 2008

Watching Joe Biden buzz from network to network post debate, you had to wonder one more time: As she prepares for her own big night, is Sarah Palin's worst enemy now the McCain campaign?
Post-debate spin would have been a natural for her; a chance to be sharp and funny and charming and not worry that some interviewer would ambush her, since any pointed questions aimed at her could be brushed back with a breezy, "Hey, I have to wait my turn; tune in next Thursday. Tonight was John's night."

1. A very good point
I mean, all she would have had to say is that he "did awesome", which is what she said at Philadelphia today.

2. How could she age?
She's been kept in a bubble. She hasn't had to do diddly squat.

She'd be looking like the wicked witch of the west if she actually had to do something other than wave and give a cute sound bite or a clever :thumbsup:

What a disaster.

But I hear she's been a praying with her preacher guy to help her ward off all those unfair and ugly attacks.

3. I'm personally pissed at McNuts for chosing a woman who is
conspicuously incapable of doing the job! If he REALLY wanted a woman, he had many Pubs to chose from. Hutchinson is a very smart and experienced politician. Even Condi, who has been through the wringer long enough to be able to handle it confidently. I view his choice of Palin as a slam to every successful woman as if he was trying to say "see, women are only good for ornaments & keeping YOU in the news!"

4. this "sharp and funny" bit is based on one speech that someone else wrote for her
How the hell does anyone have any idea what the woman is really like--all she's done is given one speech over and over and blown 2 interviews. I doubt that she is sharp and witty--dull and shrew is what I've seen from her interviews.
