So? That in no way negates the fact that Palin is a shrill sound bite
generator who has yet to show any substance whatsoever.

And Biden has fallen into some black hole somewhere. He makes Palin
look a Sumo wrestler in the substance comparison. More an indictment of
Biden than props for Palin in real life. a


look at how many times OBAMA has had to "nuance" or backtrack on his
statements.Libs call it "flip-flop" when a conservative does it,but ignore
it when their "Messiah" does it.



Not entirely true and it hasn't gone unnoticed. Many Obama "flip-flop"
moments have been highlighted on CNN.

I think it's how a candidate changes position that many people object to. If
they try to act like they never said "that" or "were misunderstood" the
general public sees through it.

IOW: It's how the can shows his reasoning process. Does he admit the mistake
and move on or does he try to cover his previous stance up?

I'd have to say that Obama has given a better "face" on his flip-flops than
McCain. Not always, but he's human and in a tough spot. Take "the surge":
We're all thankful the violence has declined but at the same time we regret
being in the position that we have to mitigate the damage. Having to admit
it worked is like saying "good job" to someone who got us in one of the
worst messes of our life time.
