Joe Biden and Sarah Palin (US Presidential Election 2008 Prediction)

[Guest guest]

Namaste,

 

As you saw, Rahu antardasa (8/27-9/2) in Jupiter dasa brought very unfavorable

coverage and scandal-mongering. Venus antardasa (9/2-9/15) made her the darling

of a section of electorate and brought the honeymoon. Sun and Moon are in 8th in

rasi and their ADs were not good.

 

It is true that Palin did herself no favor when cornered on a couple of

questions in a couple of high profile interviews of late. Though Joe Biden also

had several terrible gaffes in the last couple of weeks (e.g. he said " at the

time of great depression, president FDR got on TV and re-assured the nation " .

But the president then was not FDR and there were no TVs then), media is more

obsessed with Sarah Palin's Katie Couric interview and questioning how prepared

she is. This is not too surprising from annual TP chart and annual TA dasa.

 

Mercury antardasa in Jupiter dasa commenced tonight. In rasi, Mercury is lagna

lord in 8th in a friendly sign. For Mercury, 8th is a good house and shows

knowledge of a lot of subjects. In D-10, Mercury owns 3rd (debate) and joins

Jupiter in 11th. From dasa lord Jupiter, Mercury is 5th lord in 1st.

 

So my expectation is that her rough patch that lasted a couple of weeks is

coming to an end from tomorrow. As I have already mentioned, her daily TP chart

for tomorrow night looks very good and that of Joe Biden looks average. I expect

her to give a much better account of herself than she did in the last couple of

weeks and win back the support she lost.

 

Best regards,

Narasimha
