They only learn the Answers, Not the Subject

Failin and McLame that is.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The more I listen to Palin, the more I feel sorry for her. I feel sorry for her stupidity in saying yes to being the runningmate. I think she is a very intelligent woman, surrounded by very dumb people. If you watch her during the Debate for the Gov. of Alaska, She knows her stuff. She is able to give thoughtful well research answers.

It's clear her handlers are only teaching her Answers to Possible questions, and not explaining the subjects. And I suspect this is how they "prepared" McCain. If this is the case it's clear Obama will mop the floor with McLame. This is why McCain gives those short quick answers, and Obama gives thoughtful educated anwsers.

It's ashame how the media attacks Obama for being "wordy" and praises McCain for his "directness". I hope Obama has the opportunity to press McCain for more descriptive anwsers during the debate, then people will see what a moron he really is. Assuming there was any doubt left after this week.

JMO.

1. That's why I've been saying for weeks that Palin is no barracuda, she's just a PARROT.
Listen to Limbaugh, DeLay, and Gingrich when they speak in soundbites for the freeper audience - that is EXACTLY what Palin the Parrot sounds like.

2. I think you're right, but I also think it's all they can do.
You cannot make up for a lifetime of not knowing or caring about a topic by cramming on it for 3 weeks. It just cannot be done, no matter how smart you are or how many index cards you bring in with you. Someone will ask you something that is not on your cards and was not in the reading and because you have no fundamental understanding of the issue you will just be frickin' LOST. Which she clearly is.

C ya,

The Plaid Adder

3. hmm you must have seen a different debate than me
her opponents were pathetic in that debate. And there was an appearance on Charlie rose with her and napolitano where she showed her shallowness for all to see.
