A little interesting prediction... just for entertainment purposes of course

Jim Geraghty from National Review made a rash prediction last Friday when Palin was picked by McCain. It's fringe at best... but VERY interesting.

It does raise an interesting point. Palin has clearly energized the base and even persuaded some of the independents and fringe voters. Things are getting more and more interesting. The speech last night was powerful and had 37 MILLION viewers. Not bad for a first big speech. Obama's big nomination speech drew 38 MILLION viewers. Hmmm....

So what will Obama do if he really slides in the polls? Would he really dump Biden and go to Hillary? Would she jump on a failed campaign, late in the game? After all, isn't she kind of hoping Obama tanks so that she has a shot at 2012?

Interesting questions.

BTW, the line in the speech last night about small town mayors being community organizers with actual responsibilities was Jim's. She didn't steal the line, he actually wrote a post on his blog begging her to use the line. It was classic.

******UPDATE: Sorry the latest numbers say over 40 MILLION people watched Sarah Palin's speech, compared to 38 MILLION for Obama. Wait, that's more than the Big 0. Ouch.
