Palin has so much potential, but she shouldn’t be hiding. She needs to take what she told Hugh, and take to the streets and go door-to-door with that. Both McCain and Palin need to go back to grass-roots, and take that message above directly to the people….on a daily basis….even Sundays ! If they pound the pavement…each and every day, and let the public debate with them, and with a video camera, and then upload the results each day…. there could be a chance.

There needs to be a consistent daily contact and debate directly with the public. The problem is it hasn’t been consistend. Palin’s appearances have been piecemeal and filtered. If she takes the same things that she said on Hugh’s radio show, and takes that directly to the public, on a much more frequent basis, daily……then for the media to attack.

Palin also needs to head to Saturday Night Live and go head-to-head with Tina Fey. And if SNL won’t have her, then Palin can do her own commentary on their weekly sketches. Palin says she is willing to walk through the fire and take the shots….but how about shooting back with some shots of her own, each and every time the attacks come up, and on a daily basis.

They both need to fire back, and way more frequently !

..Ventura [spokesman for the Chief Administrative Office (CAO)] ventured that the problems on the House website might not be resolved until the economic package was finalized.

I need to hear more than a repeat of her Convention speech when she’s on the stump. I need her to be prepared for the curve balls that the liberal media throw at her. I don’t know who’s educating her in the McCain camp, but they aren’t doing that great of a job. She needs more specifics on her experience for one thing.

As a moderate, I don’t necessarily mind “bipartisanship” when it’s called for. But McCain needs to take the gloves off. Not be nasty or anything, but be more firm, be more willing to knock Obama down like he didn’t do during the debate. I want to be able to say “Sucking chest wound!” and I’m not seeing it.

Between Obama’s empty suit and Biden’s gaffe’s and despite the media practically groveling at their feet, McCain/Palin should be able to make mince meat out of them. What is going on?

Although I’m unsure of what’s going to happen with the economy right now, and even though McCain is for the Bailout, I still have more confidence in him in general than I do Obama and we need more Americans to think that way, as well.

McCain/Palin needs to get on the ball already! Almost a month to go! I absolutely dread the thought of this bailout getting passed (especially with more liberal stuff put into it) and then having Obama win in November. I just see a long road of nothing but socialism after that, because no matter what Republican may get in after Obama, it’s hard to get rid of big gov’t and we’ll be stuck with it and I won’t recognize this country anymore.

:(

I love Chicago and miss living there, but since becoming a city under one-party control (and pretty much the state of Illinois for that matter), one only has to look at the west & southside of Chi-town to see what will become of America if this twit gets in.
