Could 'Palin Factor' Save McCain?

GRAND JUNCTION, Colorado (CNN) -- As the presidential campaigns enter their final days, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin is getting getting the rock star treatment, drawing much bigger crowds than her running mate, Sen. John McCain.
Thankfully, her turnouts still are not approaching Obama levels. And does this article even need to make an implied suggestion that her turnout is going to result in an equivalent turnout on election day?

Come 2010, she will be a footnote in the history books. An almost ran that faced ethical questions in her home state after losing the national election. If she does headline the Republican ticket in 2012, it's because the GOP has become nothing more than a collection of regional parties full of crazies.

Quite frankly, the Palin Factor is nothing more than the crowd come to see the freak show. The crowd, of course, full of freaks happy to see one of their own get their 15 minutes of fame.

Control

Politics is the control of wealth and power. You are being conditioned to condemn politics as petty and boring, thus granting all the more control to the powers that be. You are either a part of the problem or a part of the solution. The choice is yours.
