CNN's Campbell Brown to McCain campaign: "Free Sarah Palin!"

Campbell Brown, the CNN anchor whose confrontational on-air interview with a John McCain spokesman earlier this month raised eyebrows and caused the candidate to cancel a session with Larry King, delivered a blistering editorial Tuesday in which she accused the McCain campaign of sexist treatment of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.

"Bear with me for a short rant," Brown began, before demanding that the McCain campaign free Palin "from the chauvinistic chains you're binding her with." Brown said the way the campaign has limited reporters' access to Palin -- the Republican vice presidential candidate has yet to hold a news conference -- was evidence of paternalism and chauvinism.

"Tonight, I call on the McCain campaign to stop treating Sarah Palin like she is a delicate flower that will wilt at any moment. ... By treating Sarah Palin different from the other candidates in this race, you're not showing her the respect she deserves."

When asked to respond to Brown's biting critique Tuesday evening, McCain campaign spokesman Brian Rogers had no comment.

Brown delivered her tirade just hours after some McCain campaign aides tried to ban reporters from covering Palin's much-touted meetings in New York with Afghan President Hamid Karzai, Colombian President Alvaro Uribe and former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger.

Here's The Ticket's report from Tuesday.

Brown addressed the controversy on her show, CNN's "Election Central," and called on the campaign to allow Palin to "show her stuff."

"Allow her to face down those pesky reporters, just like Barack Obama did today, just like John McCain did today, just like Joe Biden has done on numerous occasions," Brown said.

The anchor said she thinks Palin can hold her own against tough-minded reporters. "This woman is from Alaska, for crying out loud," she said. "She is strong. She is tough. She is confident. And you claim she's ready to be one heartbeat away from the presidency. If that is the case, then end this chauvinistic treatment of her now."

It's too soon to tell whether Brown will suffer repercussions for her comments. In early September, after the anchor clashed with McCain spokesman Tucker Bounds over Sarah Palin's foreign policy credentials, the campaign canceled McCain's planned interview with Larry King, whose show ...

... also broadcasts on CNN. At the time, aides complained that Brown had gone "over the line" in her grilling of Bounds.

Here's a complete transcript of Brown's comments on Tuesday, courtesy of CNN:

"But, first, bear with me for a short rant on another subject, because, frankly, I have had it. And I know a lot of other women out there are with me on this. I have had enough of the sexist treatment of Sarah Palin. It has to end.

"She was here in New York City today meeting with world leaders at the U.N. And what did the McCain campaign do? They tried to ban reporters from covering those meetings. And they did ban reporters from asking Gov. Palin any questions.

"Tonight, I call on the McCain campaign to stop treating Sarah Palin like she is a delicate flower that will wilt at any moment. This woman is from Alaska, for crying out loud. She is strong. She is tough. She is confident. And you claim she's ready to be one heartbeat away from the presidency. If that is the case, then end this chauvinistic treatment of her now. Allow her to show her stuff. Allow her to face down those pesky reporters, just like Barack Obama did today, just like John McCain did today, just like Joe Biden has done on numerous occasions. Let her have a real news conference with real questions.

"By treating Sarah Palin different from the other candidates in this race, you're not showing her the respect she deserves. Free Sarah Palin. Free her from the chauvinistic chains you're binding her with. Sexism in this campaign must come to an end. Sarah Palin has just as much a right to be a real candidate in this race as the men do. So, let her act like one. We're going to have more on Palin's cloistered day coming up in just a moment."

Last night, Bolton, former UN Ambassador stated that the media had no business in her private meetings with world leaders.

Bill Clinton stated that he feels she is being underestimated.

The media has lost total credibility. I wouldn't give them the time of day.

Answer to your 1-minute poll:
Palin is the better Vice President. She doesn't have "foot-in-mouth" syndrom.

By the way, Biden.... FDR wasn't President during the stock market crash in 1929... Hoover was.

For 30+ yrs in politcs, he needs to brush up on his histroy. She'll sweep the floor with him in the debates.

[bj]

Thank you Ms. Brown!!! It's about time somebody points out the absurdidity of a campaign shielding a VP candidate from the press but insisting that she is nevertheless qualified for the job. Not to mention depriving us (the voters) of of learning more about her. Let her be interviewed by all camps and let us (the voters) make up our own minds!

[crossroads]

After two minutes of introductions & formalities, what did she have, two minutes to discuss world affairs with these people? I don't think she has the temperment or qualifications to work as one of my assistants, no less VP. And yes, I've been making executive decisions for 30+ years, and have lived abroad for 4 1/2 years. The McCain/Palin campaign can't even spell Kissinger's name right in their news release. These people are a joke.

[Mollie Wasserman]

Good for you Campbell Brown! Here's another late 40ish woman saying enough already. It is the height of disrespect to not treat Governor Palin like any other candidate - it's like they're saying she's not up to it.

Whatever your political leanings, if the McCain campaign wants Sarah Palin to be treated with "deference", then it starts with her being treated equally.

[jamie]

Are you Kidding me....they should treat Obama with the same disrespect that they have for Sarah. Where are the 30 investagators in Chicago? Where is the Aryers Story? Where is the story on Bidens son who is going to go jail for Fraud?..... Cambell Brown is an idiiot. CNN's liberal bias at its best.

[ron]

Keep hammering away, Campbell. You'd make a better VP than Sarah any day.

[oscar teddy]

CAMPBELL .THANKS FOR SAYING WHAT OTHERS KNEW BUT AFRAID TO SAY.THANKS FOR DOING WHAT YOU THINK IS WRIGHT TO DO.THIS IS WHAT I CALL PATROTISME, BEEN HONEST TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE,
I WISH OTHER AMERICAN NEWS ANCHOR WOULD EMULATE YOU. THE WORLD WOULD BE A MUCH MORE BETTER PLACE TO LIVE .KEEP IT UP GIRL.WE LOVE U.

[Anonymous]

I just kills me that people were laughing at Sarah Palin because she didn't know what about the so-called "Bush Doctrine." Truth- there's no such thing. There is only "The Project for the New American Century." This is a policy prepared by Wolfowitz (2/92) under Cheney. I learned about it on 60 minutes several years ago. Most of country seems to be clueless on this. It needs to be brought out in debate on foreign policy and unequivocally denounced!

[Kristin]

I love it. It's not only chauvinistic, but it is sending a message to the American people that she isn't ready for this role. Is she? Or isn't she? It is becoming more evident that McCain chose her for his running mate not for her skills but as a figurehead.

[booboobrown]

Who on earth listens to this piece of stuff called Campbell Brown ? The most biased of any one at CNN. I used to watch CNN up until a few months ago. Then one night back in about January Brown just couldn't stop talking about how cute and attractive Obama was, and he had such "soft brown eyes". Now she is supposed to be a news anchor. Oh my God, how professional. I don't care what she thinks of any body, how many kids she has, what color they are or anything else about her. I just think it so childish and unprofessional. Made me question what got her there, her intelligence, her supposed beauty or who did she sleep with. How many women will vote for Mr. Obama because he is cute ? Is this what the American woman has evolved into ? How sick. Campbell is not a God just because she thinks she is.

[Kathy]

Good for you Campbell Brown. It appears your cohorts are almost as bad as McCain. Just what is it that makes everyone want to give her a free ride.
If she can't handle reporters what makes McCain think she could handle the Hostile Foreign Countries that want us gone from the face of the earth?

[Tookiecan]

This was a disguised attempt by Cambpell Brown to get Sarah Palin into interviews where she could be grilled and have her flaws on public display. While I don't disagree, that Palin should be able to fight her own battles, don't be fooled into thinking that Campbell Brown actually sees this as chauvanism. She just wants the chance to get her liberal hooks into her.

[Marty]

Isn't it sexist to assume that only "other women" concerned about this alleged sexiam? Come on, some guys must also be outraged. no? Guys? Guys? I
And what does being "from Alaska, for crying out loud" have to do with being tough? If you're from Hawaii are you then weak? Hmmmmm, let's not go there.
And could anyone possibly even imagine that Barack Obama has answered or even been subjected to questions the likes of which are thrown at Sarah Palan every day?

Please.

[Marty]

Is Campbell Brown actually saying something that others knew but were afraid to say? Who is afraid and of what? And further, what might the repercussions be (and from whom would they come) if others said whatever it is that they apparently are afraid to say?

[Mindy]

Oh Campbell please stop it already! Who are you to dictate to anyone as to when you must be allowed to provide press coverage? Or for that matter, that anyone must talk to you! You are trying to get in the back door by screaming sexism regarding this candidate. Candidates need to talk to the people. Believe it or not, that can be effectively done without talking to the media outlets. But hey, we know all you guys are still ticked off that you did not get the scoop that Palin was the choice of John McCain and you want to do everything to make her look bad in the media. Campbell, get off your podium. You are not Murrow, Cronkite or even Katie Couric for that matter. Your irritation is noted, but who really cares about your wishes!

[Frieda]

SHAME ON YOU Campbell Brown!

Funny the only reason you want your little hands on her is to bring her down and muddy her.

As a voter I have done my research and i like what I see and I am going to vote for her.

The only losers in this election has been the media and how hard they are trying to influence the outcome.

For all things Palin you can visit

[Eucharia Mbachu]

Go Girl, Ms Brown!
You really hit the nail on the head by rightly pointing out what is really wrong with Elderly Statesman' John McCain’s camp. The really issue is that apart from Sarah Palin’s beauty and catchy words, she really has nothing to offer to the American public. But what surprises me most is the candor of shamelessness by which the media is cowed by the McCain campaign gurus. I think otherwise on your caption, “Free Sarah Palin”, it should be PLEASE FREE THE AMERICAN PRESS from fear of the smear attacks by the Republican Presidential campaign Mangers. Tell the truth, and be loved or be hated. At least thanks for stepping up this close!

If nothing else, this shows how Plain/McCain or sorry I meant to say, McCain/ Palin presidency will be like. Please stop them now before it’s too late. As for me I am scared like hell for another Bush Era.

[Liah]

Palin is not prepared to speak to the media, her lacking of knowlegde and experience in foreigner affairs (and other issues) will be an easy target for reporters. If she opens her mouth, the GOP will get in trouble, deep down they all know Palin was a wrong choice.

Unless she is confident, she will feel free to speak to the reporters. Cover up or shut up her mouth is so far the only solution for her from GOP.

Come on, we aren't idiots!

[Rytalin for hysterical Campbell]

They dont come more hysterical than Campbell the democrat mouthpiece . Sincerity is totally lacking in any
of her comments that are never more than strident
propaganda for the leftys.I would rather listen to the

God I can't stand Campbell Brown.

Go back to fluff pieces on the Today Show where you belong.

[Jim Oase]

When the varies news outlets are talking about which other outlet is the most biased, that is telling.

Recent events, admitted bias http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/09/09/AR2008090900956.html, in a our news industry have made it very difficult to use output of the news industry as an information gathering resource. In my opinion the news industry is gracefully moving towards mob mentality in search of increasing profits. When there are as many news outlets as we have today there is extreme competition for our attention and thus advertising dollars. Good news has a history of not selling to the public. When good news does not sell the news business, to survive by attracting advertising, needs bad news to sell its products and the news industry has the resources to find bad news. In the end the good news for the news industry is when advertiser pay them for time or space which is a direct result of how their news sells.

I think the author realizes that good news is the most difficult to sell, that their are mobs of people eager to read the bad news about someone other than themselves. This author needs money to support self and family so choose the low hanging grapes and with generalizations and vague statements to created a bad news story. Count the number of specific facts with supporting, solid references verses the vague words and terms the author cited.

Would a reasonable person consider this article news supported by facts or rumor supported by assumptions. Then read the tenor of the comments with the article. Would a reasonable person conclude all these people are without fault and therefore free to toss the rocks they are verbally tossing?

Read these comments, count the number of vague terms used to describe events and people. If news is supported by specific information and rumors by vague descriptions, how would a reasonable person characterize the comments being made?

I hope the Dems will release Obama and the softball liberal mainstream media will stop running interference for him. I still want to know where he stands on anti-American radical Bill Ayers and his spiritual mentor Re. Wright!

[steve rodriguez]

I quit CNN to!!!

[When Pigs Fly]

Could it be that Sarah is even more ignorant than John McCain? hmmmm. Are the Republican'ts hiding something from everybody? This is like asking us to buy a pig in a poke.

If I were a fool I might fall for their smoke and mirror campaign. Sorry guys, put up or shut up.

[lee]

Would everyone please recognize that the press exists to ask the questions on behalf of the voters. Since we are all busy working to make ends meet these folks put up with abuse form all sides including the public as they try to inform. The candidates need to "get" that they are not doing a favor for the media by talking to them. They have a respinsibility to talk to them because that is their primary way to talk WITH the voters, not just AT us. Anyone who believes Palin could be President needs to move to Alaska with her and then vote for secession. Bet Russia would even offer to help with that!

[Di]

Thank you Campbell Brown for actually doing your job as a journalist and confronting the outrageous sexism displayed by the McCain campaign. Not only are they disrespecting Governor Palin and indicating that they don't think she's ready for real questions much less the vp job, they are disrespecting American women by assuming that we'll vote for her just because she's a woman. Both Palin and all American women are smarter than the McCain campaign gives us credit for.

[steve rodriguez]

Andrew and Don please free me! I don't want to be censored by you! I just want to express myself!

[Democrats 08]

We don't need you to run to the rescue of your rich buddies who own and operate all these banks John, we don't need you to help dig the hole YOU and your Republican friends dug so deep with YOUR deregulation ideas even deeper! the deregulation YOU greedy Republican IDIOTS lobbied hard for. No McCain what the American people need, the people you so mistakenly refer to as "my friends" what WE need you to do is to STAY AWAY FROM OUR MONEY, stay OUT of Washington and to keep your hands OFF our money. Nice try running and hiding from Obama too, you can run McCain but you can't hide. Why don't you just suspend your campaign for good, we don't need you and your kind, you are the ones who got America INTO this mess, you are the last ones we need to get us out. This is what McCain REALLY means when he says "Country First" run to aid of his wealthy Republican buddies! they come first right John? No debate? where's John? oh he's putting his "Country (rich friends) First" NO BAIL OUT FOR MCCAIN'S AND BUSH'S RICH FRIENDS!

[Digger]

For you GOP'ers out there, a little hypocritical are we (yet again) - recall your radio, blog, tv skewering of the Obama's when Michelle was getting 'vetted' - e.g.:

Memo To Michelle Obama: Toughen Up Sweetie
Houston Chronicle, 5/20/2008

"When the Obamas complain about what they perceive as unfair tactics it comes across as whining, just as it does when Hillary laments about the alleged media bias against her.

My advice to Mrs. Obama is this; you’re in the big leagues now, sweetie (sorry ladies I couldn’t resist the temptation) either get a thicker skin or get off the stage."

Good enough as friendly advice for Mrs Obama apparently, but not for your candidate for Vice President of the United States.

As asked in a recent Economist magazine (hardly a left wing bastion) editorial ("Richard Milhous McCain", 18 Sept) "Aren’t Republicans supposed to deplore the politics of victimhood? Conservatives make a good case that treating minority groups as victims diminishes America and institutionalizes dependency. But when it comes to election-time they not only play the politics of victimhood, but play it with extraordinary relish"...

Much as with claims of representing "traditional values", integrity, christianity, etc. - only when it suits your purposes. So, here’s a memo to Ms Palin and you RWWs (Right Wing Whiners) - Toughen up Sweetie – either get a thicker skin or get off the stage.

[Diana Faulhaber]

Campbell's comments speak to more than what happened in NY this week - it's shining the light on Palin's evident lack of preparation, knowledge or willingness to demonstrate her qualifications and the McCain campaigns use of her as a cheerleader, period. I

[Kelly Carter]

Mrs. who? Brown? Come on! CNN? CNN is being called the news media? That is a joke. CNN has been ransacked by the liberal agenda. All you will do is look for every reason to smear Palin. It's obvious by the video clips on this site that you guys pushing O'Bammy and O'Biden over McCain and Palin. Absolutely disgusting journalism. Way to biased for me. CNN doesn't deserve to have an interview with Palin. CNN is part of the O'Bammy campaign hands down. If they were just doing their job and reporting then she would have already been on CNN multiple times. Tough luck CNN.

[Theresa farrell]

Well done Campbell Brown. Sarah Palin is nothing more than a Beauty Queen to me at this point as for now, I have not heard her say anything substanial from her teleprompter. Why can't she play with the big boys (and girls)?

[pinoy123]

ms who? this girl is idiot i used to watch cnn and now i give up cuz this girl is sick! she is so bias she study every single move from gov palin and take it out of context...she just say bad things to gov palin thats all she does! i wish the cnn will fire this idiot! she always mention good things about obama...why dont she ask judgement to obama about his radicals friends and terrorist friends in kenya..and ask obama abt the corruption in chicago? chicago is most corrupt city in USA ...OBAMA IS A CORRUPT AND THATS WHAT HAPPENING RIGHT NOW .IF OBAMA IS ELECTED JUST WATCH THIS GREAT COUNTRY NAME AMERICA IS GONE... IF THINK WHATS GOIN ON RIGHTNOW IS BAD WAIT TILL OBAMA GET IN OFFICE THIS GREAT COUNTRY WILL BE UP SIDE DOWN! OBAMA IS BAD FOR AMERICA..HIS A GREAT LIAR!

[ted]

It is best to ignore Palin.She is being used as a show and tell and an escort for the McCain campaign.

[Gus]

Is it possible that the Mc campaign is aware that Ms Palin is really a neophyte when it comes to "big time" political participation? Being mayor of a small town is probably a stretch for her true political skill, and she was tested then.

[Stacy]

Campbell Brown is jealous of Sarah Palin and is trying anything to get attention for her show of about 20 viewers.

It's okay Campbell, we know you're father is in prison and you have self esteem issues. :(

Campbell Brown- Ditto the above. I'm so glad to see that someone else is saying the things I've been thinking. Some in the media are saying that Palin was "shrill" last night. Campbell Brown DEFINES the word "Shrill" and Soledad O'Brien defines the word "mean." They're both rude AND mean. Hafferty is disgusting. They are all a disgrace not only to journalism, but to themselves. I never watch their reports. I've been tuning in to them, though, over the past week to see what the other side is saying and knew I'd be sick about their lop-sided coverage of Sarah Palin. But then I took heart last night after Palin's speech. The liberal press was almost speechless. That was a real kick. I say - Go Sarah! Posted by Joyce of NC.

To Joyce of NC:

Joyce, you hit the nail on the head! Governor Palin gave the left-wing-liberal media the medicine that they needed! It was about time that someone - an accomplished and intelligent woman like Palin - replied in "kind" to the "24 hour tabloid news circus"! And, the best is yet to come!!

To the above list of utterly rude and mean spirited left-wing-liberal media clowns - Campbell Brown, Soledad O'Brien, Zack Hafferty led by Jon Klein = Clown president of CNN, I suggest that they enroll in a "Swiss finishing school" to brush up in good manners! Their disgusting behavior only shows their character and non-existent moral values.

It would be a great omission if to the above list we did not include another rude and obnoxious left-wing-liberal clown - Keith Olberman of MSNBC!! Keith Olberman defines the word "idiot"!

To all media clowns: Get used to it as the best is yet to come!!

Sarah Palin, tu est intelligent...tu est magnifique!!!

P.S. If anyone can think of any more names of media clowns please keep posting them...They all need to be exposed - once and for all. They did the same thing to Clinton - enough is enough - we will not just sit and watch "news for dummies" by clowns like all of the above!

[Natasha]

Ms. Brownose is a partisan Moron!!

Campbell Brown-CNN...Shsss baby!...Palin's daughter pregnancy is none of your business...BABY!!!

Campbell Brown- you are a disgrace to serious journalism.

Quote: "Jon Klein, president of CNN, has issued a statement in support of Brown's interview. "Campbell Brown did what journalists do," Klein said Tuesday evening. "She asked fair and important questions in a respectful way and was simply trying to get a straight answer to a straightforward question." Jon Klein, President CNN.

To Jon Klein, President of CNN:

I am not surprised with your idiotic statement. You have the audacity to call Campbell Brown's utterly rude behavior, "respectful"???!!! Either you think that we are stupid or you must be smoking something funny, or for that matter you yourself do not know the difference between "polite" and "rude" and the difference between "calm and collected" and "neurotic-psychotic" behavior.

Yes, Campbell Brown is a neurotic and rude anchor lady - this is not the first time she has been rude to her guests. Perhaps Mr. Klein=clown you were better off having done your own homework in "VETTING" Ms. Campbell Brown. She is a disgrace to serious journalism together with Mr. Hafferty!

With the exception of a few anchors and correspondents, whom I have always respected (and who keep you still in business) such as Wolf Blitzer, John King, Christian Amanpour, Candy Crawly, etc. the rest of your "pretty faces" are "knuckle heads" who - I repeat - are a disgrace to serious journalism.

I prefer to remember the good old CNN that you have destroyed, Sir.

No wonder why - for example - BBC World News and BBC America are increasingly more and more in demand by American households. The fact that most satellite services and cable operators offer BBC World News instead of CNN International - offered only to 6 million households in the US a country the population of which is 300 million should tell you something Sir - that more viewers prefer BBC over CNN!!

I am very glad that the McCain campaign pulled the McCain interview from the Larry King Show at CNN. I am also very happy that the McCain campaign has informed the CNN circus network that they will no longer answer any questions by your staff concerning Governor Palin's private family life or any questions by you regarding her vetting, which in the final analysis is none of your business. Senator McCain and Governor Palin are doing the right thing to ignore you CNN! They are not going to allow you to treat Governor Palin the same way you treated Senator Hillary Clinton during her campaign. Alleluia, it is about time somebody has the guts to tell you off CNN - Long Live McCain!

In the mean-time, I suggest that you put Ms. Campbell Brown on some tranquilizers or better yet - FIRE HER!!

Shame on Campbell Brown and Jon Klein's=Clown CNN! Leadership starts at the top! And, your top advertisers are taking notice CNN - trust me!

Just Asking: Will Campbell Brown Mention Her Husband's Romney Campaign Connection?!

Dan Senor - Campbell Brown's husband - Link to Romney's Campaign....

"Daniel Samuel Senor (born November 6, 1971), is a founding parter of Rosemont Capital LLC, and Rosemont Solebury Capital Management. He is also a contributor to Fox News, frequent contributor to The Wall Street Journal, and author of an upcoming book about the economy of Israel and globalization in the Middle East. He is most noted for his former position as chief spokesperson for the Coalition Provisional Authority in Iraq; some criticized him in that role because of his inability to speak Arabic [1] [2]. He is married to television news personality Campbell Brown."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Senor

Hmmmmm!...Perhaps this is why madame Campbell Brown is sooooo obsessed with....Sarah Palin's private and public life...

Remember, Romney was on the short list for McCain's VP spot!!

Check this out:

Quote:
Just Asking: Will Campbell Brown Mention Her Husband's Romney Connection In Dem Debate?

According to a November 9 Broadcasting & Cable article, former NBC News anchor Campbell Brown will "make her debut" on CNN as a "panelist" during the November 15 Democratic presidential debate in Las Vegas, moderated by CNN host Wolf Blitzer. Brown, who was hired by CNN in July, is married to Dan Senor, a former adviser for the now-defunct Coalition Provisional Authority in Iraq who is now reportedly serving as an adviser to Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney. Given Brown's role in the upcoming Democratic debate, will CNN disclose her husband's link to Romney's campaign?"

Speaking of double standards....

Ms. Campbell Brown & Jon Clown - as in Jon Klein - President of CNN, and the rest of the "24 hour media circus" had the audacity to question the fact that Palin's husband had a DUI, 22 years ago! But at the same time I did not once hear the above clowns grilling Obama about his "drug use" and other "extracurricular activities"!!!

Go Sarah Palin! Give some of these pathetic far-left-wing-liberals in the media the medicine that they deserve...Better yet, IGNORE THEM!

Like you said last night during your acceptance speech "little flash news" gesture to the obnoxious media... "I am not going to Washington to seek your good opinion"!!!

Campbell Brown Suddenly Concerned Over 'Lack of Experience'

http://newsbusters.org/blogs/p-j-gladnick/2008/08/30/campbell-brown-suddenly-concerned-over-lack-experience

They are NOT going to question their "Chosen One" - "God's Gift to America"....

Quote: Jake Lewis wrote: "I don't recall Mrs. Brown asking the same tough questions regarding Obama's lack of foreign policy experience, his drug use, his ties to domestic terrorists, to explain how he purchased a $1.5 million home (yea...middle class) on a state legislature's salary, his refusal to vote ya or na while serving in the state legislature, or why in his 3 1/2 years as a senator he has not sponsored one important piece of legislation? Oh! I understand now...he speaks well."

Posted by: Jake Lewis | September 04, 2008 at 01:43 PM

BINGO!!

Dear Jake Lewis, you hit the nail on the head! But Ms. Campbell Brown and Jon Clown - as in Jon Klein - President of CNN - have been listening apparently to Nancy Pelosi.....they are NOT going to question their "Chosen One" - "God's Gift to America", as Nancy Pelosi refers to Obama!

Can you imagine if Senator McCain had said that Sarah Palin was "God's gift to America"? They would be reminding him about the separation of Church and State!...

[Willard SinClair]

Campbell, just keep on bashing Sarah Palin because everyone knows you're jealous of her...and if you dont't
look out your FALSE TEETH are going to fall out.
Have you looked into the mirror lately ??

[Karol]

We see through you, Campbell Brown. You want Gov. Palin on your show so you can tear her apart.

If the McCain campaign gets smart they will not only allow but insist that Sarah Palin have much more media exposure. It has been a mistake to shield her. She is an experienced politician and a tough lady. She can handle the press - including Brown - and do well if she is allowed to be Sarah. She did not do well on the Couric interview because she was "programmed." That has to stop. Let Sarah be Sarah. Couric's question regarding McCaiin votes was a gotcha question. Why would she or anyone know a 26 year voting record? Next time, Sarah, just say "I don't know the answer to that." Period.

[Ellissa]

Palin is a real "air-head" if you ask me. She is unfortunately not one of the smartest people in the world. A vote for her is the same as a vote for 2004 all over again - And look where that has gotten us.

[PO]

Campbell is extremely jealous of Sarah Palin. In fact she sounds OBSESSED with her and anyone listening to her daily can see this if he or she have some sense. I feel embarassed and sorry for Campbell when she speaks of her. A person can actually tell by how she speaks about her and how long she speaks on her day after day.
