Quote of the day, so far, Wednesday edition
There's only eight weeks to go until the election. Former candidate and New York mayor Rudy Giuliani issues a grace period before knocking the Republican's presumptive vice presidential nominee.
“Give the woman a chance to at least have two or three weeks of answering questions before you say, ‘Oh, she’s not prepared to be president or vice president,’ ” former New York mayor and presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani told ABC's
.
There are only eight weeks to go until the election. Giuliani says the party's presumptive vice presidential nominee, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, should be given a grace period.
Republicans have been branding Democrats and the press "sexist" for criticizing Palin.
However, Democrats and the press were equally tough when George H.W. Bush pulled an 11th hour surprise and named the relatively unknown Dan Quayle to be his running mate.
By the way, despite Fred Thompson's inspired speech last night about John McCain, and Joe Lieberman's followup, all scrutiny in the press and blogsophere turned again today to Palin, understandable given that she speaks tonight.
Still, McCain and staff should do something to gain control of this convention and make the focus the top of the ticket.
