Let’s be clear about what’s happening here. Overwhelmingly, reporters are pressing eminently reasonable questions — her role in troopergate, her lack of experience, her connections to the AIP, her history of earmarking and lobbyists, etc. Meanwhile, the McCain campaign is going absolutely non-stop about Palin’s daughter. It is unmistakable.
Ummm…other than a couple non-front page diaries, this isn’t even getting much in the blogosphere. I could care less about the her daughter or her son or so forth, but putting this out instead of answering the hundreds of questions while Palin is in seclusion tells me the campaign is desperate to change the subject.
…Again, those smears about Gov. Palin’s infant and her underage, unwed, pregnant daughter were first launched by Palin’s rival, conservative Republican Alaska Senate President Lyda Green.
That clearly means “angry lib’ruls” are responsible. And John McCain will win.
