(Edited to add additional scandals)
Just in case anyone was on vacation, i'd like to quickly recap all of the wonderful things the republicans have been "dealing" with this week:
* Todd Palin & friends ignore subpoenas and the entire trooper-gate investigation
* National Enquirer breaks a story about Sarah Palin cheating on her husband
* John McCain suspends his presidential campaign 40 days before the election (first time ever!)
* John McCain backs out of a presidential debate 2 days before it's suppose to happen
* John McCain cancels on David Letterman, Lies to David Letterman, gets caught by David Letterman
* Sarah Palin has 2 days worth of interviews aired with Katie Couric. They don't go so well
* Sarah Palin explains that her international experience still includes her being able to see Russia from her house
* Republicans start to publicly ask if Palin should resign from her position to "save the party".
* Sarah Palin's scandal involving charging rape victims to pay for their own rape-kit blows up onto the National Media this week
* The McCain campaign has huge run-in with the press after trying to get a photo-op of Palin talking with International leaders, but not allowing a reporter to actually be in the room. The story turns into less of "Palin meets with world leaders" and instead becomes "Palin's staff won't allow reporters to come near her".
* It's learned that John McCain's campaign manager Rick Davis has been taking $15K per month from Freddie Mac since 1996.. and payments didn't stop until September, 2008
* You Tube video discovered of Sarah Palin being prayed over by a minister who wants to absolve her of witch-craft
* John McCain rides into Washington to help "fix" the 700 Billion dollar bailout negotiations even though a resolution is already imminent. He successfully de-rails the negotiations much to the disappointment of several republicans and President Bush himself.
* John McCain Goes back on his own word to skip debate, and decides 10 hours before it is scheduled to start that he will in fact attend it.
* Palin's minister blames Jewish bank owners for the Financial Crisis
* Senator Stevens (R - Alaska) corruption trial begins next week.
* McCain Campaign watches in horror as Barack Obama doesn't bite on any of their scandals, and turns their threats & bullying into John McCains inability to Multi-Task.
* List whatever else I've forgotten below....
AND WE'RE SCARED THAT OBAMA MIGHT NOT WIN?!?!? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? WHAT OTHER SCANDALS DID I MISS.. I'M SURE THERE IS SOMETHING (ONLY LIST THOSE FROM THE PAST WEEK.. WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH TIME OR SPACE ON DU TO LIST THEM ALL).
