Palin goes rogue!

Politico has a story about how Palin is unhappy with some of her advisers and has decided to go rogue. I don't know whether to laugh or cower in fear.

It should come as no surprise to anyone that McCain loyalists blame Palin, and Palin loyalists blame McCain. My guess is that when the rout is over...if not sooner:
  • McCain will accept the blame; if he points fingers at anyone, it will be the media
  • Some of his advisers and campaign staff (like the never-to-be-hired-for-a-campaign-ever-again Steve Schmidt) will blame Palin and the media
  • Palin will throw McCain and everyone close to him under the bus, climb into the driver's seat, run over them repeatedly, get out and watch as Todd runs over them repeatedly with his snow machine, then climb into a helicopter and shoot them, and finally stab them all in the back with a stiletto heel

If there's more she can do to skewer McCain and Co., she'll do it. Heck, they are probably responsible for Troopergate and are the mysterious man-made cause of global warming.

What I don't think she'll do is take any responsibility for her own contributions to this Titanic-like disastrous campaign. I don't know how she can not take the blame for the disastrous Katie Couric interview, or for her inability to speak in coherent sentences, but she'll blame someone. That seems to be her way.

Alaskans, I hope you will do the right thing by her and make sure her actions in the rest of her term completely disqualify her for national office. It's in your hands now.

the McCain camp has been sending mixed signals since it's inception... Sarah Palin can't even keep up with John McCain's constant political wavering

It's a SNOWMOBILE...not a snow machine as you keep calling it. Tell Sarah that with all Obama's socialist idea's.....we have not lost the entraupeniuerial spirit, in fact a Canadian invented the snowmobile, or the snow machine as you keep refering to it.

After riding the snowmobile we then head inside for warm ale and poutine.

You Canadians (she says fondly.)
