Paul Begala, in a shot on Meet the Press that sounds like something other than an offhand remark, suggests an Obama comeback to an expected McCain ad blitz on the Ayers relationship.

Every time they let Palin off of her leash she says something stupid.

I know. I was a little worried because she did so well on Thursday. But then, today alone there are, what, 4 completely ridiuculous things she's said again? That's just 3 days.

She's biting her own boss which is the hysterical part.

I'm nervous about Brokaw moderating Tuesday's debate. Doesn't he get to pick the questions from the audience?

They have a long history, it's not just now. But goddamn it, I have faith in Brokaw. If he does *it*, not only will it be grosser than JMc pretending he has integrity, Brokaw will lose decades and decades of reputation.

I have faith in Tom though I don't like him anymore. Don't make me come down there Tom Brokaw.
