All About McCain

I never take "unnamed" sources seriously.

However, it could be orchestrated to lower expectations and make any performance that isn't completely clueless into a victory. Very common to lower expectations.

Interesting- I seem to recall you taking the Enquirer's story on Edwards pretty seriously, and it was chock-full of 'unnamed sources' and 'close friends'.

(They are now reporting that Sarah has a secret lover!)

No - nothing unnamed about the Edwards story. It was photograpahic evidence and a reporter catching him.

Be honest. Do you actually believe that after watching her interview with Couric that Palin remotely knows wtf she's talking about?

I read she had an affair with her husband's "business associate."

More here.


True or not, the McCain/Palin public relations problems just keep getting worse and worse.

Oh, really?

National Enquirer Edwards story

John Edwards is caught in a shocking mistress scandal that could wreck his campaign, The NATIONAL ENQUIRER has learned exclusively.

Sources have come forward to charge that the "other woman" previously worked on Edwards' campaign and followed the 54-year-old candidate on trips across the U.S.

A source close to the woman, whose name is being withheld by The NATIONAL ENQUIRER, says that she confessed to having an affair in phone calls and emails, saying that her work with Edwards soon exploded into romance. The shocking allegation — if proven true — could devastate the [COLOR=blue ! important][COLOR=blue ! important]Democratic[/color][/color] hopeful's campaign, especially because John's devoted wife Elizabeth is locked in a desperate battle with breast cancer.

"The affair started about 18 months ago," a friend says the woman confessed to her. "When they met at a bar, sparks flew immediately."

Republicans never let the truth get in the way of a good smear.

The Enquirer has gone out on a legal limb and named names:

Palin's Affair

"Palin has vehemently de*nied cheating on her hus*band, and Hanson insisted to The NATIONAL ENQUIRER that he was never romantically in*volved with the 44-year-old Republican vice presiden*tial candidate.

However, Hanson family insider, Jim Burdett, has gone on the record and passed a rigorous polygraph test, revealing de*tails of the affair to The NATIONAL ENQUIRER in a world exclusive interview."


This time, they actually name a source......

Hmmm.

Affairs, drunk driving, drug use, vandalism, underage drinking, teenage pregnancy...

Nothing like a good, God fearing, conservative family that lives their lives based on biblical principles.

And the ultra-conservatives love this woman why?




And lest you knock the fact that it's The National Enquirer reporting these stories, even The National Review admits that NE seems to get it right most of the time.
