As McCain hides Palin from the American public, Obama goes toe to toe with a person who is not his biggest fan, Bill O'Reilly:
What is the McCain campaign afraid of? Don't Americans have a right to know about the censorship she tried to enact at public libraries in Alaska because some books were "offensive?" Don't Americans have the right to know that she and her husband were once members of the Alaskan Independence Party; a party who's slogan is "Alaska first, Alaska always" and its main goal is nationhood APART from the United States? Don't the American public deserve to know that she doesn't believe in global warming even when the GOP for the first time made global warming a plank in its platform? What about the firing of people she thought were disloyal to her during her time as mayor? If she's a "maverick" then so is George W. Bush.
Let's stop focusing on her pregnant daughter. Her daughter made a courageous choice in keeping her baby and I'm glad that there wasn't some self-righteous condemnation of her daughter from the right wing like there was when Jaime Lynn Spears got knocked up. That is a distraction from what Palin REALLY believes.
McCain used to be a "maverick," he isn't anymore. What made him a maverick was standing up against his party and against President Bush against tax cuts. Now he supports them. He's flip flopped on almost every major issue that made him so maverick-y. He used to march to his own drum, now he's marching in unison with the Bush White House.
