Oh My God!

By Ron Beasley

Today John McCain tried to reschedule the first Presidential debate to the night Sarah Palin and Joe Biden were supposed to debate.  That's no too surprising since it is becoming obvious she is a train wreck and the McCain campaign knows it.  She looked bad when she was interviewed by Charlie Gibson.  She even looked bad on the Sean Hannity infomercial.  And it's not getting any better.  John Cole, Elrod and dday have clips and comments on the Couric interview and it's shocking.

I originally thought she was probably pretty smart and they could pump a few facts into her head before the debate and before she had to do any "real" interviews.  Well I was wrong - she's a moron.  She actually makes George W. Bush look smart.  Now this is her I'm an idiot and proud of it moment:

The McCain campaign knows they are in deep shit.  Jonathan Martin thinks they are trying to buy more prep time for Palin.  He's wrong - the campaign knows there is not enough time.  If nothing else works expect Governor Palin or one of her kids to get really sick the day of the debate.  They know they can't go through with it.

Update

Jonathan Martin has more:

Sarah Palin's interview with Katie Couric, the first portion of which airs tonight, won't give Republicans any reassurance that she's ready for prime time.

It will, however, reassure McCain aides that they're ollowing the right course of action by keeping her shielded.

Not only did Palin say the country could be facing another Great Depression without a bailout, but she offered a painful silence when pressed about campaign manager's Rick Davis's ties to Freddie Mac.

And, at the end, she had no good answer when asked by Couric for examples of what McCain has done to regulate Wall Street.

First, she reminded Couric that McCain had been "known as the maverick."

Pressed for details, Palin threw in the towel.

BEIJING, Sept 25 (Reuters) - Chinese regulators have told domestic banks to stop interbank lending to U.S. financial institutions to prevent possible losses during the financial crisis, the South China Morning Post reported on Thursday.

The Hong Kong newspaper cited unidentified industry sources as saying the instruction from the China Banking Regulatory Commission (CBRC) applied to interbank lending of all currencies to U.S. banks but not to banks from other countries.
