Game Change HBO

Game Change HBO, Is HBO’s “Game Change” another attempt by the “gotcha” media to unjustly malign Sarah Palin? Not by an Alaskan mile. “Game Change” actually plays nice and by the rules, whereas a harsher view could be portrayed of Palin with the Alaskan governor increasingly “going rogue” and spawning hate-mongering rallies targeted at Barrack Obama.

“Game Change” dramatically portrays the desperation of John McCain’s campaign to get that crucial jolt that would revive McCain’s presidential bid. After Hillary Clinton’s defeat by Obama, McCain sought to capitalize on the female voters who would have voted for Hillary. McCain’s advisors’ desperate scramble to find McCain’s running mate and thereby bolster McCain’s campaign make them choose Sarah Palin recklessly without fully vetting her.

“Game Change” really isn’t about John McCain (Ed Harris), who helplessly stays to the side lines while Sarah Palin (Julianne Moore) gains in popularity and ego. It’s about McCain’s aides who become powerless to rein Palin in as she gains first superstar status with her national debut, then starts drawing angrier crowds which she riles up in Obama hate rallies.
