"Sarah Palin swooped into New York Monday night to meet world leaders, but New York won't be meeting her," Richard Sisk writes in the New York Daily News. "The GOP veep hopeful has served as a crowd magnet in other parts of the country -- she drew 60,000 to a Florida rally on Sunday. But the Alaska governor will be kept largely under wraps during her stay in New York, where Dems outnumber GOPers 5 to 1."
Does she need a tutorial? "John McCain's campaign is scrapping, rescheduling or offering surrogates for nearly every one of the fundraisers Sarah Palin was to hold this month, instead having her campaign jointly with McCain, prepare for her sole debate next month and get some foreign policy exposure," Politico's Jonathan Martin reports. "According to an internal fundraising calendar put together in late-August just before McCain's vice presidential selection, Palin was to have headlined nine fundraisers across five states by now. She's attended just one to date."
