What is the meaning of this?

Your going nuts?

It takes so much work to get from Palin to appealing that the election will be here long before anyone manages it?

"Sarah Palin is quite possibly the most ignorant person ever nominated by a major party for the office of Vice President of the United States?"

"I remember when I was going to vote for Hillary Clinton in the primary, and [Mark] spoke for 30 minutes about how Obama is the next Kennedy, the only candidate capable of bringing real change, and how Hillary embodies everything that's wrong with Washington," David Lowe, 58, said. "It's incredible that he's so passionate about our nation's future, and now he really needs to shut the hell up."
