If you think that was fast, check out how quickly critical and unsavory comments vanish from Palin's Facebook page in this video filmed in real time.
Will it work? "You can't take something off the Internet, even if you put it there," observes AdAge's Josh Bernoff in "Sarah Palin learns the Web has no undo" feature. And, "attempts to do so only make it worse."
