Palin picks up on the talking point I thought McCain should have employed at the debate with Obama: “For a ticket that talks about the future and change, there sure is a lot of finger-pointing into the past.” She brings out this pretty devastating quote on Afghanistan from Obama: “We’ve got to get the job done there and that requires us to have enough troops so that we’re not just air-raiding villages and killing civilians, which is causing enormous pressure over there.” Speaking of the past, Palin has a Joe Six-Pack moment: “You know, it’s times like these it’s so obvious that I’m a Washington outsider. I just have trouble understanding how you supported the war and now you oppose the war. That’s something a lot of your Washington friends do, where you vote for something before you vote against it, I guess.” Harkening back to John Kerry can’t hurt the cause.
