Shorter Matthew Continetti:
As the Kristol-appointed publicist and project manager for the roll-out of Sarah v 2.0 I will watch with great interest Sarah’s appearance on that colored lady’s show and you should too because it is all of a piece with my Wall Street Journal article, my cover story in The Weekly Standard, and my book which is currently available at fine retailers everywhere.
This should do for my career what the it did for Stephen Hayes who was the Weekly Standard project manager on the Iraq war; otherwise it’s back to giving out complimentary rimjobs in the Weekly Standard booth at CPAC.

Ew. I couldn’t get beyond the title. Just, ew.
Agree with asiangrrlMN. And I was planning on having salad for lunch! Guess I’ll have a burger instead.
Shorter “Going Rogue” (w/apologies to Robert Plant):
“Ev, ev, everybody’s fault but mine!”
Edit is not my friend.
This too is very good news for John McCain.
Just keep it going through next year’s elections: no Senate pickups, only a baker’s dozen in the House, they declare it a smashing success for Twue Consewvatism, everybody’s happy.
“giving out complimentary rimjobs in the Weekly Standard booth at CPAC.” LOL. Judging by how eagerly it happens, I always thought the neo-con (p)sychophants considered that side of the job a perk & privilege.
$arah Palin a “populist”? My ass. My sizable ass!
Grifters are trained from birth to appeal to the common folk, whom I believe they refer to as “marks”.
Some people live with the fear that they will, sooner or later, be found out as the fraud they believe themselves to be. Continetti does not have such an existential fear: Everyone around him know he’s a fraud, he’s been exposed as a fraud in virtually every medium known, and has even been exposed as a fraud by his supposed friends.
So being Kristol’s appointed point man for Bible Spice is really the natural career path for him. He’s a fraud, he knows it, and so does everyone else. Sarah’s a fraud, she knows it, and so does everyone else. Except, in both cases, the marks who make up the TeaBag Party.
Mr. Continetti sez: “Ms. Palin’s unpopularity—the result of horrendous media coverage and her role as the McCain campaign’s pitbull—is a major political obstacle”.
Yeah, just ignore the stupid factor Matthew. Nobody will pick up on that.
Hey, does Ziegler know Continetti is performing his usual chore? I think they should tounge wrestle to decide who gets sloppy firsts in the future.
These people are tedious.
Sarah Palin made Katie Couric look like a hard-hitting journalist. ‘Nuff said. Also.
Blessed with an intellect and an ability to write that are both somewhere south of “modest”, Continetti had at least the rudimentary cunning to realize that the inexhaustible demand for right-wing hackery would put food on the table. Now that he’s latched on to Palin his miserable trajectory will reach its apogee. With the help of people like him, Palin will attain undying fame as her name becomes an eponym for her brand of fleecing the gullible. In years to come, the Palin Scheme will join the Ponzi Scheme as shorthand for a sure-fire way to separate fools from their money.
When will these assholes stop pretending that Palin is an energy expert who built a pipeline? That pipeline is as real as the Easter Bunny’s little pink dick. Goddamn idiots.
More popular than John Edwards!! Score!
Charlie Gibson looked at her skeptically over her glasses? What political leader could overcome media bias like that? Damned liberals!
$P’s every reference seems stuck in middle school, no?
Katie was so mean, asking Sarah questions that she didn’t know the answers to.
Double EWWWWWWW!
Well, your version saved me the time and trouble of viewing the real thing. Thank you!
That struck me too. “Palin is slightly more popular than a disgraced politician who couldn’t get elected to the school board! We win!”
