re: #51 Charles

Absolutely. She didn’t write this speech, her handlers did. It was entirely about keeping the nutty base fired up with righteous victimhood, and building her mystique as the brave liberal basher.

She’s using a mass murder to advance her political ambitions.

I also started to notice a few weeks ago that the wingnuts had almost completely given up on her. Comments on sites like Hot Air were increasingly down on Palin and other wingnut blogs were just ignoring her. Her star was almost completely fallen. She’s now making a huge comeback in the wake of the Gifford shooting.
