And this has to do with giving $700b to giant investment banks...what, exactly? Or is she just trying to win at Buzzword Bingo?
Well, she is right in that reducing taxes has got to accompany tax reductions....

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Some people think McCain's latest bizarre stunt was intended to draw attention away from Palin's gawdawful interview with Katie Couric:
I would bet good money that "suspending the campaign" is about Something Major about to happen, and the economic bailout was just an uber-convenient gift from the universe to Old Man McCain.
Part of me is still waiting for Bushie to cancel the election. And I'm not even kidding.

I think McCain's team thought it would be a way to look presidential and assumed that Obama would have to follow, which would make Obama look bad. Obama didn't take the bait.
Now that a deal is done, I foresee Bush giving McCain plenty of credit for helping get a deal.

I don't know what happened with that answer, it was like she couldn't think of a talking point to answer with so she just shotgunned all of them at once.

Art Crawl!!!
That's what it seemed like on the clip I saw of the first half of her interview - like all she knew were keywords that she just repeated.
What big thing do you guys think is going to happen?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Yeah, I think this is right -- it's an act of "OMG we have a CRISIS!!1! To the Batmobile!", and he didn't count on the fact that everyone has noticed by now that he's not Batman but just that creepy guy who walks around the neighborhood wearing tights that are starting to sag around the knees after one too many washings.

This, probably also right.

I don't think there are any big developments in the future except for the debates. Obama needs to be more straightforward, McCain and Biden need to avoid gaffes, and apparently Palin needs to be coherent.
