WASHINGTON -- Look out President Barack Obama. Even Sarah Palin's gaining on you.
A new McClatchy-Marist poll finds that Obama looks increasingly vulnerable in next year's election, with a majority of voters believing he'll lose to any Republican, a solid plurality saying they'll definitely vote against him and most potential Republican challengers gaining on him.
Even in potential matchups where he leads, Obama in most cases has lost ground to the Republican.
The biggest gain came for Palin, the former Alaska governor who hasn't yet announced whether she'll jump into the fast-changing race for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination.
After trailing Obama by more than 20 percentage points in polls all year, the new national survey, taken Sept. 13-14, found Palin trailing the president by just 5 points, 49-44 percent. The key reason: She now leads Obama among independents, a sharp turnaround.
Ace of Spades commenters hardest hit.

...Ace of Spades commenters hardest hit.
I saw that. Ace could hardly contain his disdain and snark.
These blog pundits that fancy themselves as shapers of events rather than commenters kind of bug me lately. Erick Erickson is another one.

Not only Ace, but a lot of the commenters over there, too. Honestly, I don't know what their problem is. I see all kinds of comments about "Palinistas" and "Palinbots", yet they're practically building a cult of personality around Perry for some reason. Danged if I can understand it.

Hey, it's just open season on SCAOMF's all of a sudden and everyone wants in on the action. As I have said repeatedly for the last week or so, I don't care who is up against Toonces as long as it isn't Ron Paul or Jon Huntsman. Any of the others, including Palin, would be worlds better than Dinkus.
-
Yeah, Erick and Reihl also. And the shocker to me, it's not Erick's blog, he's owned. What gumption, call yourself editor or something.
The more they portray themselves as shapers of events the less affect they have.

You should have been around when a *certain* Huckleberry lover accused all critiquers as haters.

Intelligent, thoughtful person who on a couple of subjects become irrational.

Awww, Charles. Promise me you'll be so complimentary of me when I'm dead and gone. ;D

It's come to the point where I expect Bachmann to make a fool out of herself, whether it's in the debate or in post-debate appearances. I'm so disappointed that the Left's caricature of her turns out to, at least in part, have some truth to it. I can't tell you how disappointed.
Remember when Hillary said she was named after Sir Edmund, or that she was under sniper attack in Bosnia? Bachmann is prone to the same crap. She's in the moment, and she impulsively says what comes into her mind to support whatever point she's trying to make, without regard to truth or consequence. Dammit.

I think it would be nice if all the candidates agreed before hand that in this next debate and for all that follow no attacks on each other directly be engaged in and every answer to every question be redirected back to this rogue Obama Regime and what we will do to defeat it and put America back on a solid foundation again.
Having said that I am fully prepared to be monumentally disappointed.

I think they learn to just fill the air with words and they often have no idea what they said.
