Too Much Palin?

Even though I won't be voting for the McCain/Palin ticket I think that the McCain supporters should want to know more about Palin since she was unknown to the public before the VP announcment less than two weeks ago. Well unless they don't mind voting blindly.

I think the media is giving us a break. For months they were pandering to Obama and chasing him all over the globe to the exclusion of McCain and his campaign. One news story I heard on BHO was that he had a cold and asked someone for a tissue at his campaign stop that day and also wouldn't shake hands with people that day so he wouldn't spread his germs.(yuk! what a story.) The media was literally saturated with Obama during those months and I am please they are putting McCain/Palin in the spotlight for a time before the election comes about. The other thing is before McCain chose Palin, most people had not even heard her name much less known anything about who she is. Everyone is mystified with her at the present because she IS a mystery and the newness will probably wear off in a few weeks when they can't find anymore topics to talk dirt about and they will go back to politics as usual. That being said, I don't think people are as tired of hearing about Palin as they are of hearing about POLITICS, but it will probably only get worse the closer we come to the election.

I'm with you, I've certainly seen and heard enough of those same lines that may have been funny the first time but after hearing them several hundred times they get a bit old. However, she does need to put herself out there and grant some interviews where she can't rely on these scripted sound-bites. I'm hoping that others have the same kind of reaction as I have and start to realize as the novelty wears off that this woman has no warmth or compassion, or at least I don't think it shines through. Of course, maybe that's because the polish has been applied so think her real self can't shine through? Annie
