FACE IT: THEY DIDN’T VET HER — Earlier I noted Andrea Mitchell’s reference to reports that the McCain camp had just sent a team of GOP lawyers up to Alaska to do what I guess you’d call a post-vetting of Sarah Palin. Now George Stephanopoulos appears to have more.

Sarah Palin is about to become a grandma – but she’s still a bad [edited]

Double-standard alert: Biden is a serial plagiarizer & Obama disappeared $110 in grant money with domestic terrorist Bill Ayers. I know those fellas are Democrats and all but – you know – there may be some interesting stories there too.
What Biden and Obama did was morally wrong. Gov. Palin being a first-time grandma is good news – although you’d never know it from the news media or the Left.
Well overnight the Right has started their own attacks against our own VP candidate.
Could we get in bed any further with the Left on this?
We should be ashamed of ourselves. The thing to do is stand up with her, support her and her family through this and show the idiots on the left how love and caring works.
But no, we are no better than the left idiots turning over buses and breaking windows in St Paul for going after Palin for what her daughter did.
We need to hang our heads in shame and pray.
NEWSFLASH:
sarah palin is a political PINATA.
reporters live for this stuff. mccain brought this on himself. it was incredibly irresponsible.
I’m not seeing what you are talking about Jo. I see no post here that attacks Palin. Perhaps commenters, but no posts. Roger’s post is pointing out media bias.
Looks like Palin and her AIP wants to start Civil War II. So much for “Country First!”
Looks like the McCain campaign is trotting out her 1982 voter registration card where she registered as a Republican as evidence that she wasn’t in the AIP.
Too bad that you couldn’t legally register as an AIP member until *1983*. Whoops!
Whew!
