A hilarious nugget from TPM:
Sarah Palin derided Barack Obama’s and Joe Biden’s tax policies yesterday, telling a rally in New Mexico, “Friends, now is no time to experiment with socialism.” Note: Sarah Palin is the governor of a state that practices collective ownership of oil and other natural resources, and equally distributes the state’s cut of the revenues to every citizen.
The whole thing is becoming a bit comical, isn’t it? Anyway, a new ABC/WaPo “likely voters” poll shows that McCain’s anti-Obama attacks continue to be losers with the voters, while Sarah Palin continues to drag him down — 60% say Bill Ayers isn’t a legitimate issue, and 52% say the Disasta from Alaska weakens their confidence in McCain’s judgment.

This is where we find the kindness and the goodness and the courage of everyday Americans.” – Sarah Palin, October 2008.
