Obama and the pig
I don't think Barack Obama meant to call Sarah Palin a pig. The McCain-ers would be best to leave this one be.

Obama was, however, stumbling around with his words when he maade the remark. In fact, the last few times I've seen him on TV, he's seemed less in control than usual. Maybe the Palin pick and the subsequent bounce really did shake the Obama campaign.

Those on both sides should remind themselves that there is a long (too long) way to go.
