Sep. 4th, 2008 08:33 amSo, I didn't see Palin's speech yesterday. Or even listen to it. This is quasi intentional - I generally find that transcripts convey the content without the hype better, and I was really lacking the intestinal fortitude to listen to the RNC. (Didn't listen to the DNC either, for that matter. I am a grumpy puss.)
So, seeing the whole "community manager" thing this morning, I have to ask people who did hear the speech... was it so well delivered that it doesn't leave things way open for Obama to Yankee Doodle* it all? Even better, pairing that with the Washington insider comments? Because darn, I would have though being a community organizer was all about the grass roots cred...
* Take a term meant pejoratively and embrace it as a term of pride.
