‘Rogue’: TMI
Column by Chris Graham

I didn’t expect that the one thing that would stick out the most from my read of Sarah Palin’s Going Rogue would be the bit about an unnamed former state legislative director in Alaska, what with all the innuendo about the inner workings of the John McCain presidential campaign, the hack job she did on McCain campaign manager Steve Schmidt, the breathless retelling of the moment when she asked Joe Biden if she could call him Joe – there was just so much to look forward to.
But no, sitting here thinking about the book, about Palin, the state legislative director stories are the ones that will linger with me. Continue reading “‘Rogue’: TMI” »

Who will it be? Tim Kaine? Mark Warner? Has Jim Webb snuck his way back into the race? How about Hillary Clinton or Joe Biden or Evan Bayh?
And that’s just on the Democratic Party side.
My bet on the GOP side is Mitt Romney. Others say Tim Pawlenty. Or Charlie Crist. And then there’s the Eric Cantor Experiment.
We’re all thinking about it, so we might as well discuss, right?

You know he has to get tired of having to answer the same questions over and over and over. Because he can’t really answer them in any meaningful way.
And yet we have to ask them, because the prospects are so tantalizing.
I mean, it’s not every day that you’re being considered for the job of second most powerful person in the free world.

Now that we have that out of the way …
Listen to AFP editor Chris Graham’s interview with Tim Kaine.

It took 60 pages to get there. That’s longer than most of you would’ve gone, Palin fan or not.
Those first 60 pages were interminably long and drawn out.
I’m done complaining. I want to do my review as my reading continues, mainly because I’m not one with the kind of free time to just do a marathon-read.
(Which makes me like most actual fans of Palin. Which I admittedly am not.)
So here we go – with my Live Blog review of Going Rogue. Continue reading “Live Blog | ‘Rogue’ review” »
