And then there’s the flag pin controversy. Earlier in the campaign, the McCain camp was snarking out rumors that Obama was unpatriotic based on the fact that he was not always seen in public wearing a flag pin on his lapel. Then, come the first debate, who was the one not wearing a flag pin? McCain, of course. How did his handlers miss that?
And then after last Friday’s VP debate, Fox News made the ultimate flag pin comparison.
Palin won the debate because of the size of her flag ‘pin’! And since it was a brooch, not a pin, it also qualified as a ‘shiny object’!
Of course, the subversives are muttering about the propriety of putting it beneath that other object she has pinned to her top, though nobody was sure what it was. Read the comments.
Unfortunately for Palin, the pin doesn’t seem to have scored enough points to have won the debate with any of the independent voters she was trying to snag for the campaign. Probably the flag pin was not large enough, and maybe it wasn’t sparkly enough. But we can fix that for her. She needs a placard to hang around her neck. Do you think that would help?
