And so it begins.  Someone has to take the fall for the campaign loss, right?  So, they decide to take down the Thrilla from Wasilla.  She’s just from some far off land named Alaska, right? 

Think again.  The woman didn’t get the crowds she did because people thought she was cute.  She embodies the rightroots — middle-class conservatives who believe most politicians, no matter what the letter behind the name, can’t be trusted.  But here was a politician they could embrace because her record proved what she said.  And they connected with her.  Now, the D.C. elites who ran McCain’s campaign are trying to tear her down and guarantee she has no future in the party. 

Does anyone besides the extreme media idiots elite REALLY believe she didn’t know that Africa was a continent and what countries constituted North America?  C’mon!  Most of the leaks are unattributed, meaning the person didn’t have the balls to come forward.  There is plenty of speculation as to who it is, though.

Here’s the post at Hot Air with plenty of links for your perusal.  Suffice it to say that the conservative base is not going to tolerate this.

Update: See, I told you we wouldn’t tolerate this behavior.
