Who need glowing transcripts when John Cougar has your back?

Post on left-leaning Politico …

Aging rock star John Cougar Mellencamp supported Obama in 2008 and even asked the McCain campaign to stop using his songs for rallies.

But the AP reported that the singer has been vocal in his admiration for someone else of late: Sarah Palin.

“The legendary rocker says that while he doesn’t support her positions, he is impressed by the mark she’s made on the country since the 2008 election.”

The singer also voiced his opinion about Palin’s intellect, saying that people ignore her smarts “just because she says things and winks.”

Mellencamp thinks that behind the winking and the “you betchas” Palin has a master plan. He said the former governor “knows exactly what’s she doing” and “wouldn’t be where she is today if she didn’t.”

The Indiana-native also gives Palin a nod of approval for paddling her way through the political world, saying “she’s pushing the right buttons” and “you can’t be stupid and do that.”
