Open Mic Reveals True Feelings Of GOP Operatives

Ah, those pesky open microphones. They have taken down many candidates with loose lips. I can think of two memorable ones in Texas that changed campaign outcomes like Jim McConn's 'Shoot the queers' remark that cost him the 1985 mayoral race against Kathy Whitmire, and GOP gubernatorial candidate Clayton Williams 1990 one that handed Ann Richards the governor's mansion (thank God) hot on the heels of his 'relax and enjoy it' rape comment.

Politicians aren't the only peeps who fear open mics. Just ask Jesse Jackson Sr.

So I found the open mic comments of Wall Street Journal conservapundit Peggy Noonan enlightening despite all the nauseating happy talk spin over Sarah 'Get Your Gun' Palin

Of course they know that they are full of shit. McCain had better start upping the doses of kool aid that he hands out to the troops.

He already is. The latest BS is that right-wingers want to start boycotting Oprah because she won't interview Sarah Get Your Gun until AFTER the election.
