I don't know if it makes her more sympathetic, but I am definitely less sympathetic to the Democrats after watching their approach over the weekend on both Palin and the hurricane. If Obama really wants me to believe that he is going to change the way things are done in Washington, he better get a muzzle on self righteous pricks like Michael Moore and Keith Olbermann, and that vile website Daily Kos --- and he better do it quick. They are doing more harm than good to the Democratic cause. Their chest pounding smacks of the same old partisan politics as we have seen for 20 years, and does real damage to Obama's change platform, IMO.</blockquote>
<strong>Obama, to his credit, has already tried to quash this as a campaign issue.</strong> If his supporters and those sympathetic to his politics don't follow his example there really isn't much he can do about it. If it was a member of his staff, I would assume he would fire them, based on his past behavior. But how well can any candidate supress the expression of free speech by their supporters?</blockquote>
I don't know about that... Obama on Monday nite:
?My understanding is that Gov. Palin?s town, Wassilla, has I think 50 employees. We've got 2500 in this campaign. I think their budget is maybe 12 million dollars a year ? we have a budget of about three times that just for the month,? Obama responded.

Interesting... running a campaign is good enough to run the country..what's a few more people and a few more dollars.
I'm voting for neither party but comments by Obama are "hypocritical"
