This was the turning point. This is the excact time and place I knew a bad wind was blowing across our nation. This McCain/Palin rally happened in my hometown, Clearwater, Fl.
Oct. 6, 2008 Clearwater, Fl "...arriving reporters were greeted with shouts and taunts by the crowd of about 3,000. Palin then went on to blame Katie Couric's questions for her "less-than-successful interview with kinda mainstream media." At that, Palin supporters turned on reporters in the press area, waving thunder sticks and shouting abuse. Others hurled obscenities at a camera crew. One Palin supporter shouted a racial epithet at an African American sound man for a network and told him, "Sit down, boy." "...Palin, speaking to a sea of "Palin Power" and "Sarahcuda" T-shirts, tried to link Obama to the 1960s Weather Underground. "One of his earliest supporters is a man named Bill Ayers," she said. ("Boooo!" said the crowd.) "And, according to the New York Times, he was a domestic terrorist and part of a group that, quote, 'launched a campaign of bombings that would target the Pentagon and our U.S. Capitol,' " she continued. ("Boooo!" the crowd repeated.)
"Kill him!" proposed one man in the audience."

How right you are, Andrew Sullivan. In the South, we have a name for people like Sarah Palin. We call them trailer trash. I wish she were just the average trailer trash, but she's not. She's purposely divisive, calculatingly incendiary and yes, dangerous in her demagoguery.
