“Hey, can I call you Joe?”
I find it highly amusing that stories of Palin's dumbassery during the 2008 campaign are still leaking into the media. The latest from Politico reporting on an upcoming 60 Minutes profile of McCain advisor Steve Schmidt:
Sarah Palin’s charming opening debate line for now-Vice President Joe Biden — “Hey, can I call you Joe?” — was scripted after she repeatedly referred to him as “O’Biden” in preparation sessions, former McCain campaign senior adviser Steve Schmidt told “60 Minutes.”
Schmidt was interviewed by Anderson Cooper for a segment about "Game Change: Obama and the Clintons, McCain and Palin, and the Race of a Lifetime," a book about the 2008 presidential campaign by political reporters Mark Halperin and John Heilemann, to be published Monday.
CBS News said in a release previewing the segment, to be broadcast Sunday at 7 p.m. ET/PT, that Schmidt recalled a reflexive tendency by Palin to refer to Biden as “O’Biden.”
“It was multiple people — and I wasn't one of them — who all said at the same time, ‘Just say, "Can I call you Joe,"’ which she did,” Schmidt recalled.
Good lord.

Parallell overlaping realities are no longer eligible to be called merely coincidences...aka-Joe the Plumblerer...
It's just a game...and we have finally learned to play by their rules...at least untill they collapse their thinly veiled veneer and reason returns.!
Cajun Boy, Why do you feel it's okay for you to call others names? Have you no manners or decency towards others--even those you may not like, trust, etc? You are no southern gentleman, sir.
Ha ha ha ha...dumbassery...ha ha ha.
This is exactly why I read this blog.
