Where did that panic come from?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ato7BtisXzEObama's DNC speech. Seriously, if I was a Republican and I saw that I'd panic too. McCain panicked. Faced with his first big decision. He blinked. Watch that video.
A few days before Obama spoke there I posted about Palin and said, at the time, that I felt like her pick was my biggest fear. Several people replied saying McCain would never pick her because of the trooper gate story.
Well, he did pick her. Because he panicked when he watched this speech.
The funny thing is, I was wrong. I had nothing to fear from Palin. You see, I spent maybe 10 minutes reading google entries about her. Problem is, so did the McCain campaign. If they even did a google search. I was wrong, nothing to fear.
