OK, I GUARANTEE this Palin news will not even matter by Tuesday!!!

[Vote2008]

It will change nothing. This will be written off by McLame and the MSM.

By Tuesday morning the news will not even matter and it will be out of the news cycle!

Or it will be a side note. It will not impact the election at all.

The track record here is horrble at predicting "Done" things. Remember Palin's prego daughter? This place said "Done" then.

[Beetwasher]

1. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Ok, whatever you say champ! :rofl:

[ibegurpard]

2. We shall see

eom

[Bicoastal]

3. What makes you say that? It's THREE FUCKING WEEKS before the election!

[City of Mills]

4. I just visted Freepy public

And they were saying basically the same thing, she didn't really break the law, it was a partisan assault against her and means nothing, the dems slipped in the 'unlawful' part. Interesting!

[Matariki]

15. But she DID break the law. Not in firing him, but she violated state ethics law.

So there freepers. :rofl:

Oh yeah, ethics laws don't count with republicans :rofl:

[ThoughtCriminal]

5. Depends on how much the market drops on Monday

Palin is going to pray for a 900+ point drop.

[WeDidIt]

13. Oddly enough, I bet on today being the bottom

and moved everything in my 401K to blue chips.

[Eric J in MN]

6. Does it say she looked at people's medical records?

http://www.680news.com/news/world/more.jsp?content=w1010124A

"But the report is also expected to touch on whether Palin's husband meddled in state affairs and whether her administration inappropriately accessed employee medical records."

That could be big.

[Ichingcarpenter]

9 pages of his improper phone calls that he had no right or privilege to do

The report was damning on Todd's improper power use as her husband.

the OP is wrong as usual

[cliffordu]

10. yep, that's federal crime.

[msongs]

7. if it gets votes for obama before tuesday, let it die lol nt

[RoyGBiv]

8. Buzzkill

I have to wonder, are people drawn to this forum who just want to be miserable?

[Cha]

27. They're

everywhere.

[speedoo]

9. Gee thanks, now I can go to bed.

I really have been waiting for your opinion.

Really, I have.

[rufus dog]

11. Forces the Sunday Talking Heads show to cover it

takes away one of the MOST important days for a McCain recovery. That by itself is a major loss. A game changer NO, a turnover when trying to make a comeback YES.

[grantcart]

12. No this is the dessert after you have had a huge Thanksgiving dinner

you don't think you have room for any more crap but hell it doesn't happen every day so you just cram it in.

[Duer 157099]

18. LOL, great analogy

That's certainly how I feel, and I had a huge helping and now I am completely nauseated...

[myrna minx]

No No No I couldn't possibly--Well, ok, I'll have another trough of apple crisp.

and a wafer thin mint...:rofl:

[grantcart]

53. and a slice of Palin dump as an Apple Pie

[stillcool]

14. Wishing doesn't make it so..

[TornadoTN]

16. You wish - this is damning stuff in this report

Not only Finding 1, but the entire culture that surrounded the Governors office in her short tenure is proven corrupt, even illegal. Todd's unprecedented access to the state and the governors office, along with all of the phone calls that he had no right to make or receive. I'm not even halfway through this report!

[Occam Bandage]

17. Sorry, buddy. Obama ain't gonna let this one go. This is the next month of attack ads, ready to go.

[Motown_Johnny]

19. Just consider if it swings a measly 2% of the electorate..

4% is monstrous in this type of race.. It could drop McCain into the high 30s in some polls and move Obama into the mid 50s in others

[FrenchieCat]

20. SHE LIED ABOUT IT!

AND THEN ACCUSED BARACK OF LYING ABOUT AYERS!

this is big time shit.

[LiberalHeart]

21. The public is numb when it comes to wrong-doing. Look at Bush/Cheney and no impeachment.

[Marsala]

28. They bloody well would have been impeached if we had the votes in the Senate

But, without enough votes for conviction, it would have been a meaningless gesture that angered the country.

[LiberalHeart]

55. I haven't heard any non-internet people saying that's what they want. I don't see the outrage.

[renie408]

22. How do you plan to back up that guarantee? I mean, you are GUARANTEEING it.

Does that mean you owe us something when you are wrong?

[Vote2008]

34. I'll donate $100 more out of savings if wrong! On top of the normal donations!

[renie408]

38. Now how are you going to prove that? n/t

[Vote2008]

41. LOL....trust me! And why would I lie. So you are not mad at me?

[renie408]

47. Why would I be mad? The GUARANTEE thing was a little over the top

but that isn't a big deal.

I do think this thing is going to have legs, though. McCain/Palin may try to blow it off, but I have a feeling that this is just one thing too many. By itself it is survivable, on top of all the other stuff that has been going on with the McCain campaign...I think it is going to be fatal.

[Clio the Leo]

23. The study found that she broke the law......

..... there will be more investigations. This will be in the news for months to come.

[quantass]

24. Obama and Biden just have to keep bringing it up on the stump and the press will bite

they just have to repeat it ad naseum on the stump and on msm sets and the press will be reminded to cover ti....it is similar to how McCain wants a talking point pushed by the media: you repeat it over and over on the stump and you get surrogates to parrot it (regardless of the questions asked by the msm of that surrogate).

[spanone]

25. dream on....nwmhtt

[Imagevision]

26. Kiddin? wait until impeacment talk begins...

[WinkyDink]

29. Nice try.

[AlCzervik]

30. and you know this how, what's your track record on predictions? Be specific please.

[Vote2008]

31. This place always uses the "Done" word too easily!!

[AlCzervik]

37. yeah well that's not really an answer is it?

[Democat]

32. It will drop from the news if Obama and Biden let it drop!

McCain keeps Ayers in the news day after day.

If Obama keeps this in the news, it will stay in the news. Otherwise, it will drop out of the news.

What will Obama and Biden do?

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

33. By the time Palin is censured for this, she will be just a footnote in history

We'll barely care about it in the days after November 4th when the Alaskan legislature issues a reprimand and public censure.

[Orangepeel]

35. I agree it won't make any difference and will be out of the news by Tuesday

the good news is, it will probably haunt her when she goes back to Alaska on Nov. 5. Two years from now she'll be a talking head on Fox.

[rufus dog]

67. I'll bet a $20 you are wrong

She will quit and join Fox next year. She is a no talent hack and needs to get in while she has the chance. If she spends six months out of the public eye she will be toast.

[Orangepeel]

70. the timing is a sucker's bet!

I wouldn't be shocked if she quit the campaign and joined Fox next week. :D

[jenmito]

36. No way. If she DARES repeat her line about how the media needs to start asking OBAMA questions.

she opens the door right back to this story.

[TexasObserver]

39. You have a way of arguing rightwing talking points consistently.

I've noticed.

[Vote2008]

43. Name another one! Please! I am a realist. Unlike like 90% if this place!

[Occam Bandage]

52. How about two?

[TexasObserver]

56. Ha! Busted!

[Vote2008]

58. LOL not happy about fisa? And mad at hillary??? Dumbsss!!!

[Occam Bandage]

60. Just saying you have a tendency towards...division.

[Vote2008]

62. So ALL of my posts have been that way Einstein?

Please list my last 20 posts so we can have a vote on them!

[KansasVoter]

63. You are being an ass. Those type of posts were made by 100s here who were not freepers!

Wow, someone says that people are over reacting and you call them a troll!

[TexasObserver]

57. FYI: calling DU "this place" derisively is not the way WE do it.

We say "THIS PLACE" is not safe for rightwing spouting charlatans.

We say "THIS PLACE" rules!!

We say "THIS PLACE" is the only place I don't have to read rightwing shitheads spewing rightwing talking points.

[Joe the Revelator]

40. I am so FUCKING sick of the wannabe political clairvoyants.

Seriously.

[Vote2008]

42. I am sick of you! :-)

[Occam Bandage]

50. Hey, we have something in common. I'm getting sick of you.

[Imagevision]

44. Meet The Press etc. hasn't disected the story yet...

[4_Legs_Good]

45. This is a violation of the law, it's pretty serious

I say it'll knock any Ayers BS off the airwaves. It won't "doom" their campagin any more than it's already doomed, but it will turn the phoney focus from Obama's "shortcomings" to the criminal acts of the GOP VP candidate.

David

[cottonseed]

46. It does depend on who covers it and how.

Either the press can stick a stake in the heart of the McCain campaign here, or they can choose to ignore it. I'm partial to agreeing with you on this one.

[workinclasszero]

48. BS! McKKKain is sooo fucked!

Palin makes McBush look like a fool for choosing her as his VP and no way can he sack her. The right wing would tar and feather him!:rofl:

Can't wait to hear the fanatics spin this!:popcorn:

[sampsonblk]

49. If it costs him a pct or two, that's fine by me! - nt

[Kahuna]

51. I agree. nt

[qwlauren35]

59. Maybe not done, but "Solid" will do.

Frankly, right now, I don't want change. I like things EXACTLY as they are.

Obama is polling over 50% with Gallup, he has over 340 electoral votes according to www.electoral-vote.com, and more and more people are annoyed with McCain.

All I want this little "news blip" to do is to scare away the sane voters and stabilize Obama's lead. They can keep their "base".

Anyone who has been afraid of Cheney needs to be terrified of Palin. And those are the only ones who need to hear about this little "power abuse" issue. Since no one who applauds Cheney is going to think that Palin "abused power".

But I must say, I am surprised that the fundamentalists, specifically the ones who believe that the man should be head of household, aren't a bit nervous at her abuse of power. Like Eve. Or Jezebel. Or Delilah.

Just once, I wish we could beat them at their own game.
:mad:

[walldude]

61. It'll change nothing... So Obama will still be up 7 points in the polls?

LOL.. It doesn't need to do anything. Besides McCain already destroyed the rest of her campaign strategy by admitting that Obama is a decent guy. This campaign is over. There are only two ways Obama can lose. If they cheat, or if there is a major attack on the U.S. in the next 3 weeks. I think the margin is enough that they can't cheat and there is no need for anymore attacks on the U.S. as the goal of sinking our economy has been achieved.

[depakid]

64. Just one more nail in the coffin

Every one of these reports adds one more reason not to vote Republican. Who knows, if it keeps up- we might even end up with 60 Senators and +25 in the House.

[mokawanis]

65. I disagree

this will be talked about for the duration and it's one more negative McSmear has to deal with, he's got a lot of negatives working against him.

[CANDO]

66. But it'll be all over the Sunday talk shows!

eom

[Neutralator]

68. Listen you would have done the samething if you're brother-in-law acted that way.

She broke the law for a good reason. *Sarcasm*

[TheKentuckian]

69. This hurts

Palin pretty much has to shut up or be essentially a scoffed at target.

Guilty of present day ethics violations is a hammer, and they can try their pitiful "sexism" nonsense all they want.

[Vote2008]

71. Not even on the morning talk shows at all! Just a road bump that will not matter!
