Indeed, the Left is petrified of Sarah Palin. We were petrified of Mitt Romney. Petrified of Fred Thompson. Petrified of Operation Chaos. Petrified of John McCain’s record as a “real American.” Petrified of the PUMA vote. Petrified of the “fake” COLB scandal. Petrified that the GOP would be the heroes of Hurricane Gustav. We are practically swooning on our divans, as we have over EVERY guaranteed, imminent, no-shit-this-time GOP smackdown the Right has celebrated, prematurely, over the course of the primary season.
The NATION will surely be watching Gov. Palin’s speech tomorrow night…although, to be honest, a bit more than half of us will be there to play the “Fargo” drinking game.
Hopefully, she won’t be preceded by a pair of ambulatory Quaaludes like Fred and Joe. Even the die-hard, straw-hatted “must eat brains” floor contingent seemed bored and restless tonight. I’m not sure even a live waterboarding demo could perk those folks up.
