Debunking Democrats' Anti-Palin Message Points

Posted by: Jubal | 08/31/2008 9:28 AM

I came across this post by Ed Morrissey deftly debunking the Democrats' anti-Palin talking points (H/T The Corner):

Now that almost a full day has passed since John McCain has named Sarah Palin as his running mate, we can already see the themes his political opponents will take in criticizing her.  Irony runs through a number of these arguments, as most of them apply more to their own ticket than to the Republicans, and one in particular is just so despicable as to drop the jaw to the ground.  Let's take a tour of these, shall we?
Take the tour here.

My prediction: the next Democratic anti-Palin message: running fro Veep when she has a Down's Syndrome baby makes her a bad mom.

Your prediction was wrong -- the next anti-Palin message is that the Down's Syndrome baby isn't even hers, it's her daughter's.

I have to say the evidence is thin, but there are some very (VERY) odd things about her labor and delivery. And the strange coincidence of having a daughter out of school for six months for a disease that's usually cleared up in a few weeks.

"Thin"?

It's nuts? Not too mention vicious. But then again, it's the left blogosphere we're dealing with. No theory is too kooky or malicious if it can be hurled at a conservative.

It's certainly entertaining to watch the Democrats turning into puritans.

Remember, Palin is 'supposed' to have a 'higher' moral standard for her 'Christian Values Family Lifestyle’ and last I heard, sex before marriage is a SIN. Or did that change recently? Palin and McCain are riding on their ‘oh so mighty’ moral values as part of their platform. A large part of the reason she was picked was because she appeals to the moralists who claim to champion "family values." I doubt if having a daughter participating in premarital and possible underaged* sex is a good example of what the moralists want to see.

Palin!!! just a piece of woman,Macain choose to hide under her skirt, she just have to care about their children than to run for VP, I think she mush have been an actress more than a politician. And Please Palin using a Down baby to gain voters is miserable.
