Palin Punts

Once again, Palin blusters, then doesn't follow through. Whatcha hiding, Sarah?

Quote:
ABC News' Kate Snow reports: With three days left until the election, the John McCain campaign still has not, despite frequent requests, released any information about vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin's medical history, prompting some well-warranted skepticism.

Of course there are plenty of perfectly innocent explanations. The governor is perfectly healthy and the campaign feels no public pressure to release information? The doctor is on vacation and unreachable? The dog ate their records?

There are also more sinister explanations. But we won't go there.

Last Sunday morning, Palin spokeswoman Tracey Schmitt told ABC News that Palin's staff planned to release information regarding her medical history "early in the week."

That was six days ago. ABC News has asked repeatedly about the status of the release of information and received no updates from the campaign. It is unclear what is holding things up.

"We'll let you know when we have something to say," spokeswoman Maria Comella said on Thursday. Today she had no comment when asked again.

Aides suggested privately that there was nothing to hide in the records, but that it was simply taking a while to call doctors and round up the appropriate information to release.

It was ten days ago that Governor Palin said she would be "fine" with releasing her records.

She is the only one of the presidential or vice presidential candidates who has not released any health information about herself.

Palin did suggest that releasing her records could be fodder for political attacks of some kind.

"So be it, if that will allow some curiosity seekers, perhaps, to have one more thing that they can either check the box off that they can find something to criticize, perhaps, or find something to rest them assured over. Fine. I'm healthy, I'm happy, had five kids. That is going to be in the medical records. Never been seriously ill or hurt. You will see that in the medical records if they're released," Palin told NBC's Brian Williams on October 22.

Given her behavior, I wonder about her mental stability. She's all over the place and certainly not acting like someone running for VP, trying to help her ticket. She's alienated more voters than she's attracted.

You have absolutely got to be kidding me!!!!

Dare I state the obvious?

Obama still has not released his medical records and now you go on the attack because Palin has not released her's yet. Palin nominated and started campaigning Sept 4th - Obama started running 18+ months ago - who has had more time to do this?

Very hypocritical.

Here is what Obama released, a "letter from his Doctor" with a summary of his health -
Chicago Sun Times

Palin's released absolutely nothing despite her statement that she would. A summary of her health would be perfectly adequate, but she hasn't done it.

Typical of her to lie about something. For all we know, Trig's not even hers. For all we know, she's a raving lunatic (plenty of evidence of that) For all we know, she's on all kinds of drugs. That would explain plenty.

And why hasn't Obama released his medical records? Maybe they state he was born in Kenya, like his grandmother said in a taped interview.
Oh I get it, his grandmother is a liar and he isn't.

Why hasn't McCain? Why hasn't Palin?

Oh, I see, I need to send out some more tin foil. The BS about being born in Kenya -- good lord, the idiocy in this world is just stunning.

McCain did release his medical records when he began campaigning
The Boston Globe

I agree.

Funny -- McCain put out selected records for three hours to a selected group of reporters. HAH! Wonder what he's hiding?

Ha! I wouldn't be surprised by that one, either. Nothing you'd find in her records would suprise me -- except nothing at all.

Have you met Senator Biden? You know, that guy that most of the time sounds like he's stumping for McCain.

Want to make a bet that Obama's grandma. . .the one who's on her deathbed and isn't suppose to make it past election day lives well into 2009?!

Well, I would hope so. I'm sure it will be tough on his children for them to lose their great-grandmother. It would sure be a nice thing for his family to have her around a little longer, wouldn't it?

God, you know no limits, do you?

What? What does this mean? Do you think that it was made up that his grandmother was ill and he went to see her taking time from the campaign so.....????? What does this mean? What purpose would this serve? Do you think he is after the pity vote? He is already ahead in the polls. What could he gain from this?

Surely, you didn't mean this the way it came out.

Hello Pot. I would like you to meet Kettle.

Pot. Kettle.

Kettle. Pot.

Can't we all just get along? I think we are all a little quick to rush to "what are they hidding" and "don't look at the man behind the curtian."

As much as I've enjoied the intelligent banter around here, it seems that we all get a little off course sometimes.
