THE MASK SLIPS
This little piece in, of all places, The Guardian, sums up pretty well how the Obamatons have blown their lead by letting the mask slip over Palin.
Some polls are showing McCain in the lead now. It will require a concerted effort on the part of Obama's campaign to recapture the position they had a week ago of comfortably sitting on a win that was theirs to lose. "The narrative" Obama's folks have so carefully crafted and scripted out to the mainstream media is now hanging in tatters, with Obama now forced to defend his experience level against the GOP's number 2, the holes in his "stirring biography" now visible, and the chorus of "hope and change" being sung in a different key by a different set of people than those who had experienced him as a blank screen upon which to project whatever made them feel good.
Pretty good work for a single move of political judo. And it never would have had this effect but for the mainstream media's foolishness. That's gotta hurt.
McCain's shown he can take hit after hit politically, fall back, regroup and counterattack. Obama's never faced such a challenge in his life. Let's see how he does.
