<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Masterful side step. Putting aside the issue of Barry
taking his comedy lines from John McCain, I put the same question to you. Do you
really think that BHO didn't know full well how his audience would take his
remark? If the answer is yes, my point is made. If the answer is no, your guy
isn't very sharp. Either way it doesn't say much for his judgment. Is this
a major issue for the campaign? Not hardly as I have already said this matter
has been overblown by the McCain camp. Is it a "made up story" as Ms. Lund
tried to assert? Not by a long shot.</FONT></DIV>

<BR>> Why thank you. Your adding the rest of the quote bears out my
contention<BR>> that the governor was in no way endorsing Barry or
considering giving him<BR>> her vote as the subject line implied. No one
ever doubted that the man was<BR>> articulate, bright, and clean as his VP
pick so aptly stated, he's just<BR>> wrong on the issues.<BR>> <BR>>
And as to the "made up stories" of which you speak, what might those be
Miz<BR>> Lund? Perhaps you are referring to:<BR>> <BR>> 1. The Rezco/
BHO land deal<BR>> 2. BHO and plagiarism (makes the Biden choice a bit
clearer doesn't it?)<BR>> 3. BHO and drug use/potential sales<BR>> 4.
The whack job church he attended for 20+ years<BR>> 5. His unrepentant
terrorist, bomb planting pals, William Ayers and<BR>> Bernardine
Dohrn<BR>> 6. His incredible stand on abortion<BR>> 7. His amazingly
confused/contradictory stance on taxes and the economy<BR>> 8. A stated
foreign policy that would only be appropriate for a kindergarten<BR>>
<BR>> class<BR>> <BR>> I'd love to hear your explanation for how none
of these matter or how they<BR>> are in no way truthful. I'll be

<BR>> As always, it's best to go to the primary source. Here's the full
quote:<BR>> <BR>> "Palin: That's a good question. And you did your
homework, Larry. That's<BR>> impressive. Usually yes, such a red state up
here. It's a no-brainer that<BR>> the "R" is going to take the cake up
here. But this is a little bit<BR>> different situation now with Obama's
message resonating, even with Alaskans.<BR>> That being change, a desire
for no embracing of the status quo and politics<BR>> as usual. But
something different, something dynamic and charismatic. That<BR>> does
resonate well, that message of Obama's. I still do believe of course<BR>>
McCain will take Alaska because he's right on so many of the issues when
it<BR>> comes to - in my opinion - he's right on war, he's right on with
energy<BR>> independence measures that need to be taken. Wrong on ANWR, but
we're still<BR>> working on that one."<BR>>

<BR>> Folks, do read the entire interview because quite telling are Palin's

she's sooo<BR>> interested in the ethics of everyone else when she needs
