Old, New!? Does it matter? The fact remains the GOP put her into this position and she is a coward for being critical of the media and at the same time refusing to answer any real questions.

Who cares if it is old or new, the media has an obligation to ask tough questions. She is after a candidate for the VP.

The media ask questions and digs up dirt on everyone.

The bottom line is the GOP candidates get a free ride compared to all others.

scarborough and mika are fuckin morons. Why exactly do these people get a paycheck.

[RazorBladeKandy]

old media was narrow, controlled and unreliable. New media is broad, semi-controlled, and unreliable.

@Striker4928 Given the irrational vitriol of your comments, I must suppose you are a Tea Partyist, as I've been told only Tea Partyists are irrational and hateful.

Am I correct? Or is toilet cleaning, in your mind, a lofty profession? Is being a pea-brained fat-headed retard something dear to your heart?

[Striker4928]

Palin is a psycho and America loves psychos, the more retarded the psycho the better. Palin can't be trusted to clean toilets but she is worshipped by thousands of pea brained fat headed retards.

The following comment is marked as spam and aptly illustrates the supreme ignorance of those eating the Turd Sundae Sarah. Palin will be the trump card that hand it to McCain on a silver platter. Palin is GOD's CHOSEN ONE because GOD HERSELF see to it that a woman will become VP and later President long before an African American becomes president. Palin will fulfill GOD's word and will because GOD herself said so.

CRAZY!!!!!

Turd Sundae Sarah!!! McBush and Turd Sundae Sarah are facing certain defeat. It's a joy to witness! All you rednecks can all move to Kentucky and have sex with your relatives.
