Are the media the only ones complaining? Do voters not care if Palin has only done three network interviews, while Biden has agreed to dozens of interviews?
That's what the Republican Party wants us to believe: Palin doesn't have to legitimize her candidacy, because voters know she's capable. It's the media that wants to take Palin down!
What is the strategy behind this?
Maybe the McCain campaign is being cautious: in that case, is Palin really fit for the Presidency?
I like to think that the people controlling our country (or potentially controlling) are smarter than that. Maybe I'm too optimistic, but it helps me get through the day.
Just look at how much more hype Palin's interviews get than Biden's. We get excited when we get the opportunity to see Palin. We're addicted to her, whether we support her or not. The McCain campaign is exploiting our celebrity-like obsession with Palin by keeping her hidden and giving us sneak peaks at her potential.
Is this strategy working? It's frustrating the media, which may be part of McCain's strategy anyway. Either way, Palin is being talked about.
And any press is good press, right?
