It's really pretty simple

[Old and In the Way]

Hillary (and maybe Chelsea) challenges Sarah at every opportunity. Forget Joe...let him tell Americans why he is the best choice for foreign policy. Let Hillary and Chelsea explain why Sarah is a loser for American women.

1. Hillary certainly can

Now is the time for her to let it RIP!

[99th_Monkey]

6. Hill's already politely declined to take on that role, for whatever reasons ...

... unfortunately so, in my humble opinion.

[cliffordu]

2. I think they are simply going to ignore Palin and let her chirp and twitter her

way into irrelevance she wants a fight and if they don't give her one she's fucked. She knows NOTHING and the Obama knows it.....She doesn't understand the game at the national level. She'll get angrier and angrier and eventually have a Macaca moment and that will be the end.

[texastoast]

7. I'm not counting on that

She didn't get where she is by being stupid. Just mean.

The only thing a pit bull understands is a tougher dog.

[Chan790]

10. um...

She has a long history of saying stupid things...her shield thus far has been anonymity not intelligence. She seems plenty stupid...and the McCain campaign seems to know it which is why they've decided to limit access to her to their terms.

We probably won''t get a Macaca moment only because they're stage-managing her like a 6 year old beauty queen.

[texastoast]

12. But stupid to whom?

Not to the pukes. I can't tell you how many emails I've gotten that say how strong and courageous she is and how they have changed their minds and will go to the polls. Those people do not think, research, or care as long as they feel less fearful. And they make allowances. Stupid is comfortable (and preferable) to many of them. Sad, so sad, to say.

13. We weren't going to win them over...

I never had hope we'd convince the RW base to stay home...they knew what was at stake.

The middle pays scant-attention but cares deeply. You get the facts in front of them to show there is a real difference and they vote. I've convinced one of my coworkers to register and vote for Obama...she doesn't know what he stands for but she knows that McCain means more of the same. That's good enough for me.

We're going to win based on ability to sell the independents and average American. If Palin says something stupid they'll care and they'll not turn out for her or they'll vote against her.

14. The more she blabbers in a vacuum the hotter the rhetoric has to be to keep

the attention.

"I'd rather talk about Sen. McCain's lack of direction on the issues..." is about all the Obama campaign has to say about ANYTHING to effectively muzzle her.

[ChimpersMcSmirkers]

3. As much as I'd like to see CaribouBarbie get taken apart piece by piece,

it's ultimately, unproductive. Obama sending Hill out to join battle with McDouchebagg is the right play. Obama is correct in ignoring her.

[goldcanyonaz]

4. Are you kidding? Hillary will go after McCain, you know, the one running for president.

[WorseBeforeBetter]

5. No. Corporate Media will be all over that as a "cat fight."

Let Hillary go after McCain. Marginalize Palin by ignoring her or let Biden go after her.

[livetohike]

9. That's what I think too

Hillary was running for President. She should go after McCain. Ignoring Palin will do the most harm to McCain's campaign. Make her irrelevant.

[CakeGrrl]

8. I thought that initially, but it's better to ignore the "rock star" the MSM wants to create

Make HER work for her airtime. Make her show up and answer some questions. Don't entertain her scripted jabs.

[redqueen]

11. Exactly... if she won't answer questions, she's a joke. So let Letterman and Stewart and Colbert

deal with her.

[KittyWampus]

15. Hillary IS IGNORING HER. Are you really that out of touch? Haven't you paid any attention?

Jesus fucking CHRIST. What the fuck is wrong with DU'ers?

Obama is running against McCain. MCCAIN.

Hillary is addressing McCain.

Obama and Biden are addressing McCain.

When will DU'ers stop feeding this idiotic nonsense around Palin?
