She never wears it down in public. If it's down over her ears when she walks onstage tonight for the debate, some people are already speculating that she might be wearing an earpiece. Could be interesting. So desperate/shameless. But they are desperate and shameless people. And they cheat ... I think many people also believed GW Bush was wired in one of his debates. Photo enhancements showed some kind of square-shaped device under his jacket. Does anyone remember that? http://www.huffingtonpost.com/keith-thomson/the-cyrano-issue-can-a-ca_b_131379.html
Here's Bush with his wire. At one time during a response he even uttered some random statement, like "OK OK let me finish," as if someone were trying to interrupt him. Thing is, the debate hall was dead silent. It was creepy. It worked for him, though. It was all dismissed as a conspiracy theory. So why couldn't Palin get away with it?
ugh.... whatever happened to informed, serious, political discourse I'm talking about these forums and the presidential debates...
I am well informed about Republican tactics, and completely serious. They're desperate, they play dirty, and she's an idiot. Why not feed her talking points? If her hair is up tonight as it always is, I'll stand corrected ...
I don't doubt for a second that Bush and other politicians cheat and use earpieces etc. But I don't think Palin would wear her hair down at a debate... wouldn't that seem kind of disrespectful and unpopular to the more close minded crowd? I don't know, while I think it shouldn't matter what anyone wears to the debate, I doubt she'd wear her hair down because it would be seen as unprofessional. And if you think she's a milf with her hair up...
you can hide a wire in most of her updos. Trust me, I stash all kinds of oddities in my hair when it's up. Since she does that softer lazy Gibson girl thing, I bets she could have a wire very easily. Bushie didn't have long hair to hide his.
OK, so I'm a conspiracy theorist. Palin doesn't need an earpiece. She held her own: QUESTION: What strategy is best in the Middle East? PALIN: ENERGY! MAVERICK! YOU BETCHA! QUESTION: How does the United States solve this economic crisis? PALIN: ENERGY! MAVERICK! TAXES! YOU BETCHA! QUESTION: What's your Achille's Heel if you become VP? PALIN: ENERGY! MAVERICK! DRILL BABY DRILL! YOU BETCHA! (BTW: She has no clue what an achille's heel is. She thinks it means "pet peeve") To paraphrase "The Breakfast Club": Sarah Palin is a neo-maxi-zoom-dweeby. You can wink at me and tell me you're a hockey-mom until you collapse from o-zone particles, but you're still an idiot. I felt like I was watching a rehearsal for The Real World. Except this was the outakes -- the losers who don't make the show.
Earpiece or no earpiece... She still came across as a moron, imo. She sure made no bones about being a money hungry, big oil supporting, closed minded republican. Again, this is just my opinion.
