I was actually in Israel when Barack visited and I spoke with many Israelis who were hopeful that Barack would be elected. This is unbelievably thinly veiled racism.

]]> Comment on New McCain “Joe the plumber” ad by Chris http://politicaljunkiesplace.com/2008/10/22/new-mccain-joe-the-plumber-ad/#comment-5 Chris Thu, 23 Oct 2008 15:58:27 +0000 http://politicaljunkiesplace.com/?p=41#comment-5 McCain has definitely seized a little bit of momentum the past couple of days. And with Obama taking today and tomorrow off to be in Hawaii, this might carry through the weekend. Four or five days of momentum at this point in the race could set up a knock-em-down, drag-em-out final week, IMO. Because while McCain's attacks will be refuted by surrogates, the silence of Obama -- albeit for a good reason -- naturally puts the ball in McCain's court so to speak.

"It was always the intent that the clothing go to a charitable purpose after the campaign." From the quote, it appears that the campaign doesn't think she will need the clothes after the election. :) Mark McCain spokespserson about Palin’s $150,000 clothing budget paid for by RNC:
