For those who feel sympathy for Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin during her recent response to a question on the bailout, here is a word of advice.

Don't tell Jack Cafferty.

The CNN anchorman lambasted Palin for her thoughts on the $700 billion bailout proposed by the Bush administration. After showing a clip of the Alaskan governor's Friday interview with Katie Couric on CBS' The Early Show, he had this to say.

"If John McCain wins, this woman will be one 72-year-old's heartbeat away from being president of the United States, and if that doesn't scare the hell out of you, it should," Cafferty said.

He asked viewers to write in opinions about Palin's qualifications for the presidency and then turned to Wolf Blitzer and said this:

2. Cafferty is the only one left on CNN who hasn't been assimilated as a Borg.

3. Thanks! And, why is it wolf blitzer's job

to make excuses for palin, anyway?

4. Jack Cafferty is the only reason why I would even try to watch CNN

If I had my way, Cafferty would be the one with the show, not Wolf Blitzer. It's my policy to try to avoid all glimpses of Wolf Blitzer and the only reason to make an exception for that personal policy is Jack Cafferty.

5. Wolf Blitzer is always standing by to jump at the opportunity

to defend this bunch. I'm glad Jack said what he did to him:mad:

I love that Jack, always tells it like it is.

I bet it was difficult keeping her composure.

11. Said many times - picking her was an insult to the American people!

12. I seriously have no doubt that Blitzer feels an intellectual kinship with Palin.
