Keith Olbermann "Campaign Comment" On Palin: Are You Smarter Than A Third-Grader? (VIDEO)

Tonight Keith Olbermann, alarmed that his "Special Comments" were occurring with such frequency that they were no longer special, offered a "Campaign Comment" about Sarah Palin's continued confusion over the role and powers of the Vice President. The comment was titled, "Are you smarter than a third-grader?"

no place to post this but there appears to be some truth to the PA governor's comments about western PA citizens. check out s t o r m f r o n t.org quite amazing. Maybe Senator Obama was correct in his statement about why he wouldn't get votes in that part of the state.

I thought the clip was almost finished. So apparently her level of education didn't allow for learning what a VP does. But at what level do they teach students about "run-on" sentences?

He is absolutely right ..... and even prominent Republicans are horrified by Palin's ignorance!

PLEASE >>>>>>>>>>­>>>>>>>>>>

I had a sad moment for Hillary the other day when she said (paraphrasing) that nobody should 'assume' anything .... a lesson she learned the hard way, to be sure!

Hillary understands that while a candidate can be the frontrunner for a long time, at the end of the day, all that really counts, is the VOTE .... it would be a shame if Obama supporters took victory for granted, and stayed home on November 4.

GO VOTE EARLY if you can .... but VOTE ! Take NOTHING for granted, it aint over 'till it's OVER ....

GO VOTE EARLY if you can ... you or someone you love might get sick on Nov 3 or 4 and you might be unable to go!

GO VOTE EARLY if you can .... there may be problems at the precincts .... don't be caught out !


GO VOTE EARLY if you can ... Obama has been working his butt off for 2 yrs, just for this one DAY .... don't let him down, when he needs YOU

GO VOTE EARLY if you can .... elections are won one vote at a time, and the result lasts 4 yrs!

Here in Oregon, Comcast removed MSNBC from the cable lineup a couple of days ago. I guess that shows us which side of the fence Comcast is on. I hope they go out of business.

Stump the govenor!

[BassMent]

Oh lordy, that was funny. The look on his face every time they cut back from the clips of Palin was just priceless. My S.O. and I shot beer out of our noses we were laughing so hard at that segment. Classic KO!

Once again, the McCain campaign proves to be the best friend the Democratic Party may ever find. It seems that every time repub Gov Not-too-Bright opens her mouth, yet one more reason to vote for Mr Obama just spills on out!

Is anyone surprised by the fact palin doesn't know the job to which she is running to be elected? After all, has she gotten ANYTHING right yet??

I gotta say, over the 7 weeks our nation has needed to endure her obnoxious voice, her mean-spirited attacks on Mr Obama, and who can forget, her inability to actually make sense when asked simple, reasonable questions by the press? I have become a real fan of the Gaffe-Mistress of the North.

Thank you John McCain for giving the American people the second largest reason NOT to vote for your bid to the presidency of the USA. What is the first and largest reason NOT to vote McCain/palin? No secret here, it is John McCain, of course.

Her poll numbers are diving down "past" China!

What I clearly don't understand is why the McCain campaign did not sit Sarah down for a few days and educate her on the foreign and economic issue and the constitution so she can at least BS her way though debates and interviews and write her own stump speeches. I could have tutored Sarah but she is far too entertaining on her own.

[SethBLiNK]

This isn't a gaffe. It's a warning.

She has an even grander idea of the VP's role than Cheney does, and that is scary indeed.

[wingman1]

I agree with Seth. Palin is - as she sees it - laying the ground for a seizure of powers as VP. She is unconstitutional and very dangerous.

[theseeker88]

Seth, I agree with you. Should the team of McCain/palin be able to steal this election, palin's steady combination of constitutional ignorance coupled with her abject stupidity will make bush/cheney seem like "The Good old Days".

The nation in the hands of someone as stupid and mean spirited as palin would be one we may not outlive to regret.

[em0199]

Seth got to agree. I think she is basically saying out loud screw what the constitution says if I get in there this job is going to be what I say it is. If I want more powers I will have them. And that is scary.

[clarinetmama]

There is nothing sexier than a man who uses sarcasm to take down morons. But then she makes it SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO easy to do.

[PCRX]

Thank GOD (any oand all of them) for people like Olbermann. Hey Palin - I have seen the future should people like you get elected to high office - it is Mike Judge's film "Idiocracy"
