"So Sambo beat the bitch" DO NOT FALL FOR THIS. It has the markings of a GOP trap
Edited on Sat Sep-06-08 06:33 AM by Fluffdaddy
I would love for this to be true and have the MSM run with it.............But, need much more then we got to believe this story

1)No proof...........Zero

2)Unnamed source who does not want her name used.

2a) reportedly a bunch of people heard it at a "unnamed restaurant" but noone has comes forward.......Publicly

3)Only one minor blog reporting it.

4) This got Dan Rather trap smell all over it

5)The GOP would just love for us to deal a false race card against their little girl


Do not blindly fall for this. It has the makings of a GOP/rove trap all over it

Danger,Will Robinson........Danger

1. Ya might want to warn A. Sullivan on this one
he likes to start rumors and he usually sticks his foot in it.

2. Absolutely! Palin is the trap!
She is the wild card, but if the focus stays on the issues and Bush-McCain, they can't gain ground.

9. Exactly. Any journalist worth their salt would never run with a one source story
Great if it could be proven. Or a 2nd person that would come forward............publicly

8. Thanks for the link.
The Progressive Curmudgeon is a good read, but still no proof and no way to prove it. This scares me

4. I wouldn't go so far as to call it a GOP trap, but
unless someone got her on film/tape, it is of no use to us.

7. actually it cannot be disproven
unless they can come out with objective evidence of her progressive attitude towards people of color, Eskimos, women who are not rw nutcases, etc., then this is rumor will be like "he's a muslim" - those who want to believe it will; those who don't, won't

12. We've got enough REAL information to bury her
No need to resort to rumors of switched moms/babies and possible racial slurs. Just publicize her financial shenanigans and the places where her record contradicts what she publicly proclaims are her accomplishments.

I have no doubt she's a nasty mean-spirited bigot, but without documented proof it's unwise to go there.

Beat her on her record and beliefs
