Carl Hiassen on Pit Bulls and Florida Polls

If you haven't seen Hiassen's take on the GOP troubles in Florida, it's worth a read.

Hiassen points out that Palin's "pit poodle" appearances were "staged at carefully selected stops where the crowds would be a Deep South brand of conservative Republican. McCain's strategists told reporters that Palin's mission was to rally the party base, in which case the party is in deeper trouble than at any time since Richard Nixon's ignominious exit from the White House.

"While McCain desperately needs to recapture independent and undecided voters, Palin is out preaching to the far-right aisle of the choir. Not a soul who was considering voting for Obama would have changed his or her mind after hearing Palin's low shtick."
