When Ann Richards
...said, "Poor George, he was born with a silver foot in his mouth," it was a funny line. I was voting for George, but I knew it was funny, and scored two points for the price of one. Liberals thought they had died and gone to heaven. Ann was the toast of the town. Now, a Republican woman turns the tables, and with one zinger after another, takes down the self-important press and its favorite candidate. Are they at least impressed? You know, on the technical level? Nope, nada, never. You cannot turn the tables on these folks without inviting their everlasting scorn. As for Ann, whatever she is doing, it was a good night for her. The fact that George beat her for governor, well, so what. She got off a great line, and I really don't care who wrote it.

I used to run to the toilet and puke from both ends every time that Ma Richards spoke. Until she used that line, I never saw the humor in politics. I laughed so hard when GW beat her that I had tears streaming down my cheeks. |

There’s been a lot of talk recently about Gov. Sarah Pailin. However, I think Cindy McCain also deserves our respect and admiration. She’s an intelligent, accomplished and classy lady like Sarah. Cindy also has an inspiring story and a genuine servant’s heart. I was especially impressed when they talked about her adopting their daughter from Bangladesh and her current involvement in charitable works around the world. The McCain/Pailin team doesn’t just talk about “change,” they are the real agents of change that we need. If they win this election, America will be blessed to have both women – along with John McCain - in the White House! |

second he has to be crying in his beer, he thought romney would at least be back as VP and hewitt was expecting to be the next scooter libby.

Way to go Sarah!!! Bravo!!!
That tingle running down the collective legs of the liberals is the result of not having enough time to clean out their panties after Sarah Palin's magnificent speech!!!
Liberals and terrorists look out!!! This girl hunts Moose, dresses them down, and eats them for lunch! Armed with integrity and grit she will dress down the liberals and eat THEIR lunch. She's got what it takes and she knows how to use it!
As America grows to love her more than the liberals hate her she will be the FIRST woman Vice President and then the FIRST President of these United States.
In the immortal words of the guy who yelled it out in the Missouri supporters' rally, "You go girl!!!"

I do not disagree with his comments.
And Truthseeker, I have seen several of my normally sane Democratic friends freak out since Sarah Palin appeared. They were mildly amused by my support of John McCain. I did not make a big deal of it and since they assumed Obamamessiah would win, well let's just humor Joe.
Now that it has dawned on them that Obama might actually lose they are starting to really get aggitated. They have litterally gone insane.
You guys (not just you but the collectively whole of Obama's kingdom) can call Palin a liar, bad mother, hypocrite, etc. Whatever. But what I have witnessed this week by the MSM and Obamaphiles in tearing down Sarah Palin is obscene. But fortunately she is Alaska tough.
Truthseeker, I know you and your Dem pals are going to throw your worse at her. I would just request you don't make stuff up and lie. If you have a gotcha moment fair enough, but have enough class to note when Obama messes up or Biden has a senior moment.
Game on. |
|
|
|

Aren't the posts by the Dems here great to read? They are shaking in their booties. Sarah Palin is fresh and strong and smart and a woman and they can't stand it. Palin is the all American woman and they can't stand it. Sarah Palin will be a powerful figure in American politics for decades to come. And you know what? The Dems can't stand it! |
|
...is priceless. Made me want to go to c-span and watch her for the, uh, third or is it now the forth time?!
Oh shoot, can't load it. Hmm, could their servers have crashed???
I don't doubt it.... |
|
|
hometown right-wing newspaper - "Palin Speech Mock Obama." Period. That's all she did - throw barbs at Obama. No substance in that speech - just pablum. Where is she on issues we all care about. Oh, yeah, she hasn't been told by Rove how she feels about the issues yet. I suspect she will be on a Kool Aid diet for the next 60 days. |
|
was your past name, that inane character kimberly,
the one that was harassing, harrowing tormenting guys on line?
Or you are just jealous of Sarah's looks?
Or,is it, maybe, she can have it all?
Poor, Poor, Poor, susie not cuteiee.
If you were really cute, you did not have to add it to your name?
you must be really depressed.
And devastated?
Little desolated one!
Tooooo Bad.

Sarah Palin is, at last, the future of the Republican Party. She may just save and reshape the cause of feminism. She may just be America's younger but just as steel-forged Maggie Thatcher. The groundswell of support for Sarah Palin among women (with the exception of east coast Elites) shows that there are many of us who have waited for someone like her. We are pro life, professional women with children and we represent small town America. We are the thousands (or millions) who despite being proven female leaders no longer fit in the feminist movement because of our conservative values. We are the women who have balanced babies and leadership and never, ever, ever considered abortion when we learned our children were going to be born with birth defects or genetic diseases. We may get darn angry when our 17 year old daughters have babies, but we aplaud their courage and belief in human life when society (and a Presidential candidate!) tells them just how easy it would be to abort and forget the life they started. We are the women who for too long have had to bite our lips when scolded for not being "real" feminists.
Well, it is time to reshape the American feminist movement, and after last evening, I believe that Sarah Palin is just the person to do it. She has spine, she has bull dog guts, she has humor and perspective, she knows what she can do without being narcisistic (unlike Obama or Biden), and she has the qualities of a terrific national leader and Vice President of America. Thank God! Where do we send our $?
And Hugh, thank you for your coverage and your writing. |
|
Some of her lines last night, like:
"When they take those styrofoam columns back to some stage set..."
I have to admit to developing a crush on her. |
|
I have been extremely disappointed in the McCain nomination and had determined I could not vote for him no matter who he chose as VP. Having said that, however, I can't tell you how impressed I was with Sarah Palin's performace last night.
She was inspiring, tough, and had a way of drawing blood with a smile. She is terrific, and I am hoping she is as genuine and as good as she portrayed last night.
The worst part for me is when Senator Stick-In-The-Eye showed up at the end to share the stage with her and her family. He should have stayed away.
Man, what could have been if we had nominated someone good - Romney, Thompson, Rudy - practically anyone - and put her on the ticket. How great would that be!!! |
|
Eventhough RAS has McCain gaining in the swing states. He will be short at least 5 electoral college votes. He has to win one of NM, IA, WI or MN. OR may also be possible.
This assumes that he wins OH, FL, VA, CO and NV.
McCain needs to send Todd Palin to NM. He may be able to swing enough minority votes.
Palin will have to find enough rural votes in one of the above to pull off the victory.
Palin has to become the cheerleader for Rep fund raising as McCain is taking public money. He will not have enough money to counter Obama's ads in late Oct. Obama will buy the election unless the Rep Party has the money to counter him.
The money now has to go to the party as McCain can't take it directly. |
|
|
Doesn't McCain creep everyone out? |
|
I have no dog in this fight. As a true conservative, I'm voting for neither Obama nor Juan Mequeno. Palin obviosuly piques my interest, but the only thing I "fear" is that she's selling out to the GOP mainstream.
Like I said: "we'll see." Maybe one day she WILL be instrumental in pulling the GOP back to the right.
If the media don't get her first.
And no, not "shell-shocked." Just a little amused and appalled, that's all. They don't call it the "silly season" for nothing. But to (loosely) quote George Will, conservatives are supposed to have cool heads in order to make up for not having warm hearts.
As for the Obama compariSON (single, not plural, "comparisons"), I say, if the shoe fits, wear it. |
|
|
Word has it that the Enquirer - the only outlet that got the Edwards story right - has a line on Palin's affair with a colleague. Could it be? Considering her amazing hubris of accepting this bid with the kind of baggage she's got, I won't be surprised. The question is, will the RW STILL vote for them regardless of moral values (the adultery ticket)? Yeah, I'm guessing that "moral values" have never EVER been a part of the Republican Party's M.O. and this election only goes further to prove that point. |

Keeping him at the Naval Observatory where he couldn't do any harm would be a winner. |

The blindness of the Left is incredible and fits their lib hate america first attitude. To down play this great American (Sarah)accomplishments and her skill to communicate to all the world is unbelieveable. You must hate strong women like Sarah or hillary. The dems only want the power to legislate their leftist/marxist goals. They care not for peons like animal girl with her caustic viewpoints against a real woman with conservative beliefs. If the dems ever take power, animal girl would complain about loss of rights, too high taxes, weak foreign policy, and ... be totally robot happy in her sick left mindset. mindset.
To renegade. Awesome points on the sick sick left media and their going tingle down their legs on obambi. |
|
A little shell-shocked, eh? If you haven't noticed, this week is called Convention Week. This is Republican National Convention, and this blogsite is Conservative. Hint: people are suppose to get fired-up.
And pleeeze spare us the Obama comparisons. Christians have only one God, and unlike Obama supporters, we do not expect our politicians to do miracles.
Do I detect a bit of jealousy and fear in your words? The highlight of the DNC was Bill Clinton's Speech, and not Obamas. And Obama's bounce was very disapppointing - a mere 8 points. Dukakis got an 18 point bounce in 1988. |
|
"We'll see."
You GOP acolytes are obviously "wowed" over her speech (and once again this all reminds me of Obama worship here), but now the hard work begins. Juan Mequeno gives his acceptance speech tonight. Not a happy prospect, given how bad he's been looking recently (and last night, when he joined Palin onstage, was no exception).
And, the debates are ahead. As is more scrutiny of Palin.
So stop all this acting like giddy fools. You should be be *hopeful*, but praying. This truimphalism of yours is quite premature. Obama's still ahead in the polls, and a *LOT* can go wrong with the GOP ticket in the days ahead. |

The AP is going after Palin on her comments about God's support for the War and her building a pipeline.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080903/ap_on_el_pr/cvn_palin_i raq_war
Since the vast majority of American's believe in God this can be used by the McCain Camp as an attack by the leftist Atheists on religion.
This will be a major thrust by the press for the next few days. Palin will be positioned as Huckabee in a dress. McCain had better some ads out in the swing states to balance out her image and fast. |
|
|
CNBC said she hit a home run, but it is only the first inning. That may be true, but it "ain't over till it's over", you think she's good now, watch the next 8 innings and the final score! |

...athingortwo makes an interesting observation, as to evoking what would appear to be a impossible task; a positive comment from persistent naysayers.
So be it.
However, it is rather fascinating that Lefty Losers who visit this site with the regularity of bear scat on my front lawn are scant in their visibility. Sure, Pathetic Liberal makes his vapid comments----but that's about it....
It would seem to indicate the stupor they are in after Mrs. Palin's debut. |
|
She actually got VAPat to say something nice and positive!
Miracles never cease! |
|
but here goes:
- as a fellow University of Idaho graduate, I say "Go Sarah! Go Vandals!"
- I think the upshot of the Rudy and Sarah references to our unnamed opponent can be summarized by that great Clint Eastwood line, "You're a legend in your own mind"
- Joe Biden deserves our sympathy, if not our votes
- Gotta hand it to John McCain - he knows how to pick his veeps!

Comments on this post concerning media bias are dead right. Kevin is spot on in noticing the "crowds" that were filmed by the MSM and Fox. McCain and Palin definitely deserve the win in November; they have so much more to offer than Mr. Hope and Change (by the way, loved Rudy's comment last night that Hope isn't a strategy, and Change isn't a destination). I am hoping that the average American can see through the onslaught that the MSM will be dishing against Mc/Palin in both obvious and subtle ways over the next 2 months. If our candidates can overcome the MSM, they can overcome anything! Go team!!!! |

If memory serves me, the press used to be the citizen's front line against corrupt, self-important, pocket-lining politicians. We used to be able to trust them to spotlight corruption, sometimes at great personal peril. We could trust that they would shine that spotlight into the dark lit, smoke-filled rooms where special interests and back door deals were made. The founding fathers thought their role so great to this nation's health that they made sure to give them special protection in our Constitution.
It would now seem that they have forfeited this responsibility on a national scale. In their efforts to deliberately ignore and hide Obama's relationships with terrorists, corrupt politicians, criminals, financial incompetence with donated money and in refusing to vet his lack of experience for the Presidency they are now complicit in any future scandal involving this man and the damage to this nation that will result.
At the same time, they have undertaken a mission not to vet Sarah Palin, but to destroy her. If Obama had been subect to same level of scrutiny and propaganda they have heaped upon Palin, it is doubtful he would have survived the primary and, he might not even get reelected to the Senate.
Experience and issues are absolutely essential to make an informed decision about who gets to sit in the Big Chair. However, honesty, integrity and character are equally as important. If Obama is comfortable rubbing elbows with some of the sleaziest deal-making elements of politics, how am I to trust him?
And if the press is comfortable turning their spotlight away from those aspects of his character and honesty, how am I to trust them?

Not only did she score--she got a Hat-trick!

a poor speaker - 'one of the worst'.

But good luck selling the idea. |

lolololol
You guys run a friggin' pop star flyweight celebrity who cannot speak complete sentances without a teleprompter, and you dare say Palin is second rate?
Your guy had to find one of the ultimate Washington insiders to counter his complete ignorance of foreign affairs, and you say an elected successful Governor ain't gonna fly?
The head of our ticket has actually served this nation in tough times and good, at personal peril and your guy's claim to fame is a book where he talks about using and dealing dope and his days as a 'community organizer' (ward heeler). And we are in trouble?
Thanks for the laugh, PL

Sarah was the starting point guard for her state champion team.Hussain's coach said he was a substitute on his team.He rode the pine baby!
Score boad! |
|
teleprompter?
That is what we saw last night.
Her teleprompter malfunctioned halfway through the speech.
Compare that to Obama when his breaks: If his script stops, he stops.
The question now, is how are the dhimmies going to dodge the debates completely?
There is no way Biden can stand up to this, and we already now Obama without teleprompter = melt down.
Anyone who thinks this speech did not go beyond the party faithful is engaging in wishful thinking.
The wheels of Obama's ego-driven campaign are going to come off. Big time.
|
|
I love this woman, it was a brilliant move by McCain both politically, and let's face it, pandering to the 18 million voters Obama chose to turn his back.
I didn't need to hear the speech to know she was perfect, but after hearing the speech last night, I was overjoyed.
We've had to endure and swallow Obama's so-called unique qualities for almost 2 years and even some liberals must be tired of the same old TV dinner every night.
Now, as Fred said, she is a breath of fresh air. She's the new focus, she's the new inspiration, and she is REAL.
As far as the naysayers and libs who cry about her sarcasm...Run to your Bill Maher for kind words of comfort.
As far as "she didn't tell us how she plans to do all these things she promises." Then you weren't really listening to her speech. But don't worry, we now have a couple months to hear it all if you can't catch the bleeding obvious. |

So last night I was watching Serena vs Venus and flipping back and forth to the Repub Conv….. I just popped over to ABC because its just a push of the number 2 button. So I am watching Rudi speak for about 5 mins and I notice... There are NO Minorities appearing the crowd scenes. Then I noticed that they are using the same 5 camera angles… of the white family members for Rudi and McCain, the Texas delegation in cowboy hats and the same two older white men in the crowd. The cameras never varied except for very distant crowd scenes where individuals can not be picked out. Hmmmm.. so I flip to Fox…. Multiple shots form cameras that are not fixed on the same areas along with mid range shots that allow you to see 20-40 or people at once…. Lo and Behold…. On Fox you see Blacks, Latinos, Hawaiians, Asians and other non-white types.
Wow, what blatant bigoted manipulation of the media…. So I checked NBC and CBS next…. All shots of Whites Only…. Its like they are living back in the Jim Crow days and want nothing to do with colored people. Their shots were all close-ups of various white people and repeated views of the same small groups of white people. At one point on CBS there was crowd shot from the rear and in the bottom right corner there was a Black man with a shaved head…. Within a couple of seconds that camera was zoomed forward so the Black man was removed from the frame. Then the view hung there for about 10 seconds.
All this while we know there were Blacks of notable fame near the front of the stage like, Lynn Swan. Lynn was included in the shots of people like Newt or Lieberman in the crowd…. Of course now of the other media rarely show any notable republicans if at all.

Lots of gurning which was a bit weird, but all in all she did well. A speech for the party faithful, not for independents, so I don't think she's going to win anyone over who wasn't already going to vote McCain come what may. That said, she should stop mentioning how she was aainst the bridge to nowhere, because it's well documented that she wasn't... anyway, she did well. But it's McCain's turn tonight, and he's one of the worst public speakers ever to lead a major political party. She'll make him look even worse... |
|
As a minority, transplanted (naturalized in 1983 from Brazil) female I was extremely inspired last night to hear details about Mc Cain and to witness history in the making with he biggest campaign come back in modern times. I was not going to vote because of my "impression" of Mc Cain. Yet, listening to all the details about him and then closing the evening with Sarah's incredibly smart, tough, graceful speech made me so thankful to be a Republican!
I am going to shake my world for this ticket where I live including supporting them financially and putting bumper stickers and lawn signs on my
property. LET'S SHOUT America, this is not Hollywood, this is the best America has to offer our children and our future!!!!! |
|
Great speech Sarah...direct hit. Now that's someone I can pull the lever for.
I especially relished the fact she aimed her big-ol-moose-rifle directly into the vipors nest of the left-wing media. They have had it coming for a long long time. She made the likes of Sally Quinn and Keith Olberman look small, petty and irrelevant. Gee...it's just toooooo baaaddd Sally Quinn you have your shorts in a bunch because the "media" wasn't given time to "vet" Sarah. But I have one question...who the h*ll is the media? In case you forgot...the people run this show! NOT the S.O.B. mainstream media.
You go SARAH! |
|
What a Valkyrie!! Poor poor wimpy Obama!! I feel SO sorry for him! He just looks even weaker and more like a caricature and more ridiculous in comparison to her and she is just the VP!! She is 10 times the man Obama is! He might now get the sympathy vote because of his proverbial bloody nose that she gave him last night!! And this shows how confident and comfortable in his own skin Mccain is that he did not fear putting such a powerful and charismatic and beautiful woman on his ticket! Obama because of his inferiority complex (understandable of course!!) chickened out of putting Hillary on his ticket and ruined his chances for getting into that white house that he has been salivating after ever since he has gotten himself into politics!

those who have attacked and mocked Sarah Palin -- this brief video is worth a thousand rebuttals to the negatives said about Sarah Palin this week.
If you cannot appreciate the subliminal substance of this impromptu interaction between two of her children, you will never comprehend Sarah Palin the leader, Sarah Palin the person, Sarah Palin the woman or Sarah Palin the parent.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z42VFchucnU
Oh, some will say it's cute, blah blah blah -- but no operative or strategist can "teach" a child to care ... that's a parent's job.
God speed, Sarah Palin. You're the leader and role-model we need in this country. And you're a damn good politician, too.
|

If not the first, certainly one of the first to trumpet Sarah Palin as the ANSWER.
She WILL be the first woman Vice President and THEN President in 2012.
Tonight as others have said, America was introduced to An American Margaret Thatcher:
http://geoffreybritain.wordpress.com/2008/09/04/the-emergen ce-of-an-american-margaret-thatcher/
And I must share this small but important sign of Palin having the 'right stuff':
Many know that she was the point guard on her championship winning high school basketball team and where she got her Sarah Barracuda nickname.
What many do not know is that in the closing seconds of the championship game she made the game-winning shot... with a stress fractured ankle...but then, what would you expect from a "pit bull with lipstick" :-)
|
|
|
. . . he is really scrappin' now . . . .Saray Palin ain't gonna fly???? She already is, boyfriend. . . . And this one gave me a chuckle - she's just like Bush??? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! You guys are really desperate - and it shows. Go tuck into bed. You're starting to look as foolish as Animalgirl. . . . . |
|
is the commentary after the speech that asked how she would do off prompter.
Have they not been listening to "The One" speak when he is off prompter. Um, uh, mmmmmm, uh, ummmm, I um, ah, think she, will uhhhhhh, ah do ummmmm, do ahhhh, a, I mean will, be able to uh, ummmmm, outshine, I mean, uh, outperform BHO without the, uh prompter because she, uhhhhhhh, actually has, um, core beliefs and she, ahhhhhhhh, won't have to um, worry about what she um, what she said in a previous off prompter scenario.
He only sounds good with the speeches written by his speechwriters and when he has a prompter reminding him what he believes during that speech. When you actually have core beliefs you can answer questions directly like McCain and Palin without sounding like you have a mouth full of peanutbutter. |
|
"There is only one man in this election who has ever really fought for you."
yeah, this was one of the many times a tear swelled.
still like: what the difference between a pitbull [?] and a hockey mom? -lipstick. still rolling on the floor laughing. shows she can go off point/script and still deliver a genuine moment. |
|
Sarah Palin just demonstrated it for us:
I think I'll start referring to Obama as
Bullwinkle...
Come to think of it, Biden does kind of act like a flying squirrel.
I wonder if Sarah Palin has any recipes in her kitchen for "smoked squirrel". |
|
McCain will most likely retire after one term, leaving Palin for two more terms and America to have 12 years of the modern day President Ronald Reagan and the First American Woman President!!
Good luck Sarah, I will be the first to donate to Sarah for President 2012!!! |
|
Now they'll come for Sarah like wolverines. What we've seen so far will look like a picnic because desperate terror combined with a total lack of scruples will create the mother of all $%!^ monsters. It will be ugly, but the media as we've known it may cease to exist in the coming months. This should be very, very good.
The Horror... for them. |

you don't get to vote present if we put you in charge, was one of many highlights in Giuliani's speech.
I was told Jon Voight would be narrating a Palin bio tonight. Neither hide nor hair of him or the film. How could my sources be so wrong? |
|
|
Obama is now experiencing the fierce urgency of finding the men's room. |
|
that uknown Gov. who sort of gave background on Palin: had awesome shots at Obama /Biden too:
Each had their own awesome kick butt zingers:
They all were awesome:
PALIN made the biggest dent:
I can hardly wait for the debate: she is so ready for Biden: YOu can just see it in her eyes:
That is one super happy well adjusted woman: |

The argument we are getting from Team McCain is that Mac felt like he really needed a "game changer". Well, for now, he has got it. Gov. Palin was strong.
However, the pit bull tonight was actually Mitt Romney. He was really exercised (almost shouting at times). But, somewhat effective as an attack dog -- but not with much humor (more could be said).
Giuliani was also very effective as an attacker, but in a more ornery sort of way --almost whimsical at a times.
Michael Steele and Mike Huckabee had the best balanced presentations ---mixing well: humor, seriousness, pro McCain and anti_Obama.
Linda Lingle's defense of Gov. Palin was fairly vigorous.
(And, how 'bout Michael Williams? Has that guy got a future, or what?)
I think Sarah's attacks were restrained for the most part -- only occasionally belittling Obama. And, other than that, her speech served its purpose of presenting her as a person of political skill and personal charm. |

This country would be better off in the hands of a woman who has made more executive decisions than Obama Bin Biden combined. Play Giuliani's speech slowly so that you can understand that as president Obama does not get to just be 'present' and couple that with the fact that he has NEVER led anything his whole life! This country would be lucky to have Governor Palin as president...and Obama Bin Biden know she will take them to the cleaners come November. She is every american.....she has DONE what Obama 'hopes' to do. Now go take a pill, you'll need it in the next 65 days. |

While everyone is entitled to their opinion. Sara Palin is without a doubt an amazing woman!
It should come as no surprise to anyone that if you want the garbage cleaned up in Washington well the best Person for the Job is a woman... Especially a mother of 5!! If anyone knows how to get things done it's a mom but a mother of 5.... those "Washington Good Ole' Boys" just better hold onto to there hats, Mom's know how to get things done with just a look!
Go Sara! |

that is why Obama has been running the super sleaze Media campaign against her
the slander, the slime, the sleaze:
Obama king of sleaze just runs a filthy campaign |
|
|
i'm thinking her poise and confidence must scare the dog crap out of biden. this is more exciting than any pay-per-view/closed circuit fight ever. git'em sarah |
|
|
How good is she? You can see it from the posts on this site. The writers know what the Obama campaign knows. Man-to-man defense won't work. Double and triple-team her if necessary. Let McCain shoot at will, but for God's sake, somebody stop that woman! |

We must keep them around to remind us of what not to become. Libtards are just fine as long as they stay out of power and no longer threaten my children's liberty and freedom to become what they aspire to. Obammy and the libtards are the Debbie Downer's of America. History is important to know so as to not repeat the miseries of the past! |

Do you think the slime merchants are kicking themselves for drumming up so much interest in the speech? Instant karma can bite like a pit bull.
On the Bridge... she went along at first, got the money, switched it to build a pipeline instead. Is that the biggest issue? I'd say "well played" because the pipeline leads us towards energy independence.
Something is happening, but you don't know what it is, do you, Liberal Jones?
Palin 2012. |

I was on the fence until tonight but I am for McCain/Palin now because there is a difference between leadership and empty rhetoric. John McCain and Sarah Palin possess qualities of leaders such as integrity, consistency, ability to listen, willingness to admit a mistake and the all important one of decisiveness.
I just don't see that in Barack Obama. He looks too much like the perfect stranger who has a history that no one can attest to but him. |

She gave a fantastic speech that on the one hand was moving and on the other hand kicked butt. And I'm delighted for what she brings to the McCain-Palin ticket. But even more I'm just delighted by the picture she presents of someone who is utterly unafraid of cultural elitists who disdain those who "cling to God and guns", as Obama contemptuously puts it. The picture I get is that Mary Palin is simply not willing to be defined by the MSM and the "politically correct" elites. Instead we see a new, conservative, genuine feminism: honest, assertive, confident. The order of the speech says it all for me: she starts with her family, and unabashedly speaks of the special love borne by parents of special needs children; then she delivers a speech that unabashedly takes numbers, kicks @ss, and outlines what really matters to real-life families; and at the end, the family comes onto the stage and Mary Palin is seen carrying Trig in her arms. Mary Palin, you rock: keep up the great work! |

You didn't like her speech or Guiliani's, yet you have to announce that you are a right-to-center republican. If you have to announce that, you're not. What are you a plant from the Obama campaign or the Soros crowd. How childish. |

Forty-two year Senator Barack Obama, 90 (I-IL) has decided not to seek an 8th term.
"Since my Democrat Party fell apart in the wake of the 2016 Presidential election," said Obama "I held the banner as an independent, upholding socialist ideals that failed to flourish in the 20th century. I am an old man, and am proud to have represented my people, if not my country, for so long. I look forward to my retirement, on your nickel."
SO LONG. |

This woman is the key that seems to have unlocked the door of the Conservatives' voice!!!
Ever since she has come on the scene, politicians have come out and given the media a lashing and to their face no doubt. ie. Newt the other night on MSNBC. She has been an electric prod in the backsides of our representatives. And the great thing is, it's the people who screamed first and the pols felt the jolt! This is the begining of something huge! Can you feel the wave baby!!
When they get in the White House, they will not take the smears and lies by the MSM like the Bush Admin did. They will fight it all the way...THANK GOD!!

I will help a little
Palin: Mayor of a town of about 9000 which is a full time job.
NObama: Was a state rep of a district of about 2000 on a part time basis and a community organizer (what ever that is.)
Palin: Governor of a state. Had to run a state budget.
NObama: A US Senator for 3 years and has been running for President for 2 of them.
Palin: Actually makes decisions.
NObama: Afraid to go on Fox for a debate and stands for essentially nothing.

President Elect McCain and Vice President Elect McCain make a great team! She is his alter-ego. He is the "Maverick" and she is the "Reformer" - a winning match!

Hey, Hugh - did you notice in her speech that Sarah Palin is a self-proclaimed "gal"?!!! Down to earth and capable!
Another mom at a Catholic high school football game on Saturday commented on what an interesting election it's going to be. I stated that I was so excited by Friday's announcement of the choice of Sarah Palin. She sniffed that she was insulted that after all of Hillary's brilliance and "dues", another woman could gain the distinction of being first on a presidential ticket. I said that it wouldn't bother me at all! Pardon me, but, other than enduring her husband's infidelities, what dues has she paid that entitle her to that historic role? Hasn't Sarah Palin been serving in elected office longer than Hillary?
And, speaking of experience, did anyone notice how, though the Democrats have been decrying Palin's two years of gubernatorial experience as insignificant, Barack not only claimed he was more qualified because of running his campaign, but he also cited the time frame as "the past two years." Even if only from a time comparison, aren't they pretty even, so how can he claim to be vastly more qualified?

As a center-to-right republican, I didn't like the speech at all (or Guiliani's speech). It played well to the building, but I think to middle-of-the-roaders it will seem angry, sarcastic and mocking.
I think most non-partisans don't like viciousness, and this speech seemed vicious towards Obama.

So I take it you would rather lie down and take the libtard garbage spewed by the leftists? Good for the McCain campaign! finally some rebuff by a fighter. I don't like McCain but he is a fighter with country first in mind. Palin is a pitbull ready for a fight. Are you? |

"attack and lie.
Actually, that's all Palin did in her speech."
Attack. True.
How's it feel when our side doesn't just sit there and politely take it? Your eejits got smacked down. Deal, loser.
Lie. False.
Palin said the big zero hasn't passed any major legislation. Care to point out where this is wrong?
Palin said b.hussein designed his own "presidential seal". I saw it, are you telling me he didn't do this?
Palin talked about b.hussein getting caught mocking Pennsylvanians in San Francisco. Hillary made hay out of this- are you saying not only Palin, but Hillary are lying?
Give it up. It was a great speech, and you're a bitter sad little thing.
Obama is being deconstructed- he has no experience outside of influence peddling and stealing federal monies, and is stunningly and laughably unfit for office.
Only the deranged and moronic think he is qualified to be anything more than a shift manager at TGI Friday's.

Tremendous job in the face of an incredible amount of negativity. One of the great VP acceptances... in at least my memory. She's a natural.
Long way to go but having been around the block a time or two, and having seen her treated the way she was the last few days, I was reminded that it's always dangerous trifling with talented people.

Well, except you just expressed an opinion, you didn't actually LIE, so it's not quite the same.
Why so glum animalgirl? Palin and company dissed your hero ZERO? (Laughter) Did you hear a vision of hope and change that could be for real instead of an empty vacuum? What can a poor girl do? You know the facts are on the table now! |
|
|
Animalgirl needs to realize that character also reveals itself when a leader realizes their mistakes and then makes the correct decisions. Regardles of where Palin first stood on this stupid bridge issue, she then saw the correct position and took the correct course of action. That's the bottom line here. |
|
Notice the factual red meat delivered tonight. These same set of folks will be hammering through out the campaign against Obama.
The 527's will be in gear next week agains Obama.
For those following the campaign, all the factual red meat was known, but a lot of voters still don't know who Obama really is...like voting "present" 130 times etc...
I think Palin will be hitting hard, but in a different way. If people trust her, they will believe them when she says Obama is not ready. This to me is a key to the attack side.
Rudy and Romney can attack normally. But Palin will attack more softly...she can't look angry or seem bitter.
Also, notice Rudy used the words "Obama" and "McCain" and not "Senator". This is a way to personalize this campaign and strip away a term that equalizes these two men. You are not voting for two senators, but two men as President.

The media faces (ABC, NBC, CBC, et all) were like the Russian Hockey team in 1980. Blank, aghast, penguin-stares.
When they picked up their testies (or ovaries) off the floor, managed to get their brains rebooted, I heared a muttering "nice-speech", "where's the beef", and other such comments.
They weren't salivating anymore.
However, they'll be no rest for the wicked....I'm sure the media will try to dig up the sludge.
As to the story about the "affair" (National Enquirer), don't you find it funny when they ignored Edwards's love-child story, but Palin is now "OOOOO, lets get into THAT RUMOR."
Hey, to quote a Clinton supporter...."it's all about sex". Since when does it matter to Democrats. |

Meet Sarah Palin!
Mind your manners now, thats a mighty big stick she's swingin' |

Since so much has been said in the liberal media in regards to gender specific issues with Sarah, let's hit the matter head on.
There is nothing like a real woman to put a fake man in his place. Calling on real experience, tangible facts, a sly smirk of confidence, and the backbone that comes only with actual accomplishments to stand on, Sarah single handidly took down Obama. Game over baby.
She's the gal that every man wanted but only the strong one got. She's every girl's dream, and every fake feminist's nightmare. She refreshes with confidence based in reality while the other side tries to control with perception.
Real men didn't used to eat Quiche. Real women like Sarah Palin don't play victim to the liberal media and biased press. They come out swinging hard and fight the battle where it counts... in and on the issues!
She's SUBSTANCE AND STYLE. She's a Game changer. She killed it tonight.
John McCain didn't just pick the first woman Vice President. He picked America's future. Watch out everyone... Sarah Palin, and all the is good and great about the women in this country, is in the house!

Senator John McCain and Governor Sarah Palin exemplify what's right with America. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said regarding the other side...I truly WISH I could say it about the opposing ticket but it is just not possible. |

Hockey mom style.
Wow, the line about two books written yet no time to write any legislation. Punked, jugears.
Animal girl- was she lying about that? What major legislation has the mighty zero written? Oh, that's right- NONE. Oh, but he did say "present" a buncha times...like that's all important and stuff, really.
Yet again, the complete vacuum that is the "experience" b.hussein is trying to perpetrate is called out- only this time on a national stage.

You bet ClaritySeeker...I forgot to add another classic trait...in addition to the Elegance of Jackie O, Gov. Sarah Palin has the Wit and Delivery of JFK! She does not remind me of cold barracuda but rather a furry White Fang who hails from the Yukon and In addition to The Call of the Wild she has a Call to Serve! |

What a great speech! Palin has this guy thinking "45th President of the United States". A new star is rising. We were just introduced to America's Margaret Thatcher. |
|
|
Conservatives have been wondering when the next Ronald Reagan would appear. Who knew it would be a female governor from Alaska. This was one of the best political speaches since the Great Communicator took the stage. |
|
|
Palin looks like Jackie O and has the Wit and Delivery of JFK! She is not a cold fish like a Barracuda she is more like White Fang |
|
I'd be very worried too if I were you. Just imagine Palin did end up on the head of the ticket...she's probably have to get someone with some foreign policy experience for her VP. I dunno, someone like Petraeus maybe...you're toast whichever morbid way you spin this.
|
|
|
I would be perfectly willing to concede that Palin scored a home run -- to the choir. She was off-pitch and her long scolding was too PTA and not offering much in the way of her "reforms." America will not "fall in love" with her after tonight. The GOP was pre-disposed to huzzah her no matter what, but not even Hugh could whip up his typical hyperbole. Now watch the "liberal MSM" bend over to praise her mundane speech. A historic night for the GOP tho, congrats. |
|
is an odd one.
You say:
"I am concerned about Senator McCain.
If he were to pass before the presidential election, Sarah Palin would be put forward as the head of the ticket and would be elected president."
Right, and she would have more executive experience than the empty suited dolt on the other side. She has been responsible for more money, more people, and has negotiated on a far bigger stage than that shady "community organizer", that king of the "present" vote ever has.
In short, she has made decisions more momentous than which tie to wear to a speech.
Our VP candidate is at this very moment more qualified than the flapping empty suit inhabiting your one spot.
|

A pitbull with lipstick! She was awesome!
|

Years ago Jim Croce told a tale of what can happen when you "mess with some one strange to you".
I think the lesson today is that when someone:
- beats the incumbant governor favored by the party
- has an 80% approval rating
- states the difference between herself and a pit-bull is lip stick
- and goes by the nickname "barracuda"
maybe one should think twice about starting a fight. |

Too bad Sarah didn't get to close the convention; I think McCain can't possibly top this. |

Boo-hoo-hooooooo. Waaaahhhhhhhhhhhh! Waaahhhhh!

This woman is going to be an inspiration for our daughters for years to come.

If Palin was running for President I would have no questions about voting for her. I loved the fact that she came out swinging. All republicans should attack now like Newt did when that reporter ask that dumb question and Newt laid the smack down. Let's start challenging the media every chance we get !!!
dirL |

You could hear the "shock and awe" in the voices of the ABC commentators. Republicans can win this. RAS is showing a shift for McCain in many of the swing states. Obama's bounce is coming mainly in the blue states. He is losing traction in the swing states.
Palin is a heat seeking missle. GO Sarah. |
|

Chris Mathews now has tinkle running down his leg to mach the tingle running up it!!! |

...seems to be that the speech was "written for her". The Obama camp response put that at the fore of it's statement and it was prety much outed as a pre-planned attack when Nina Easton came out with the same dumb statement on Fox right after the speech. Brit Hulme's humiliation of Easton was beautiful but nothing compared to that fantastic speech.
Just stunning.
|
|
Didn't I tell them, don't mess with Sarah?
Was I right or was I right?!
What's the difference between a hockey mom and a pitbull? Lipstick.
And then she went on to attack! I think my favorite was invoking Truman to wipe up the floor with Obama/Biden/left/MSM on the small town issue, and to claim all the small town votes Obama threw away.
But there were so many!
As I expected, she can slit your throat while smiling so sweetly that you'll thank her for the privilege.
Advice to Obama/Biden: Concede now, why wait. |

You keep holding on to that slop your shoveling. Your too blinded by your hateful agenda to see that truck called Palin about to crush you. |

I was following Red State's online chat during Palin's speech. These are all guys chatting about her performance.
A number of dudes actually admitted they were crying ! Remember, these are republican men. A republican man only cries when his number one sports team loses a championship or when they are deeply in love.
I think it is safe to say, guys love Sarah too :)
For the record, I got emotional too, but anytime someone says they are proud to be American, I get a little emotional :)
|
|
chimes in with another classic comment.
Doc......did she not exude incredible confidence and comfort in her position at that podium?
Yep, she has poise.
Yep, she's gonna do just fine. And Harry Reid is going to be "hating" her as well.
And that is gonna be litmus enough for me that we've got the right ticket. |

Half way through Sarah's historic speach, I was seized by a mental vision of the Dynamic Duo beating the living daylights out of the Penguin and the Riddler. KABLAM! |

Bad day for the Red Menace. Bad, bad day.
|
|
I felt Rudy, of whom I'm a huge fan, had some great content but the tempo was off. Sarah didn't have any of those problems, presentation was so solid.
I listened to her speak and I know that we're seeing someone I want to show my kids as a role model. |

This was as good a coming out party for Sarah today as it was for the Gipper then. What potential! She just smothers you in patriotic goodness. |

what the liberals will do is what animalgirl did: attack and lie.. Hopefully the american voting public will see through it. For our future, I pray they will. |

Governor Sarah Palin has a Gold Medal Performance her first time competing in the Olympics of Politics! She is the daughter of Ronald W. Reagan.....Reagan started his charge with his 1964 Rendezvous with Destiny speech for Goldwater so this lady as started her rise to the Oval Office
This Lady has the X factor to the power of Brains, Guts, Rhetoric, Class, Moxie, Experience, Charm, Wit, Vision, Poise, Command and Faith...She has Shoot in her eyes and what she may lack in experience(which I doubt) she makes up innate Leadership ability! She is a sight to behold a Madonna(accepting the children God gives her) with a Joan of Arc determination and an elegance of Jackie Kennedy! She has X in Spade in Spades.....God Save the Vice President!

When's Obama's big speech? Oh, he did already? |
|
I knew she'd be good because I've been following and had heard her before. But this was over the top. She is a MAJOR inspiration and connected with a LOT of people tonight.
Indeed, McCain's judgment has again been tested and shown to be rock solid.
What a breath of fresh air this is! |
|
Congratulations Mrs. Palin. Homerun.
Great job.
And I briefly changed channels to listen to teh follow up from Chris matthews and Keith Uberidiot.
They were visibly flummoxed by what they had just heard. Matthews was repeating himself over and over in astonishment----he broke his trance by offering up some types of analysis. All he could come up with was an analogy to the Hollywood movie "Norma Rae"; to him, Palin is the Norma Rae of politics.
Uberidiot could do little better and provided his own narrative of Hollywood movie likenesses---some movie starring a strong woman played by Reese Witherspoon.
Yep, priceless was their inability to analyze Sarah Palin in any other way than with Hollywood metaphor. Feckless-------yet, priceless. |

Great observation. McCain and Juan Hernandez already ran off this conservative, but she did do well.

At least you admit to being a lower life form.
I heard a "pretty much all out nasty" speech from some Greek temple in Denver last week. All about how lousy America is. It sure set off the old b.s. detector.
This was nothing like that. It's a positive vision of America, and an honest assessment of a weak opponent.
Your boy is in deep, deep trouble..... |

What a brilliant speech...near perfect in its structure, memorable lines, and brilliant put-downs....Obama, what a drag it is to be you |
|
I've said it here before...Chris Matthews has something with this whole 'thrill/leg' thing.
I AM SARAH PALIN (and I'm a dude!!!)
McCAIN/PALIN '08 |

I am more committed than ever to actually vote for McCain-- whom I really did not like.
But I love Sarah Palin, I love the speech, I love the family, and I am ready to vote tomorrow.
Go Hockey-moms! Go Pit-bulls! |

Sarah delivered an excellent speech. She brought the long knives out for Barry O. Bravo! |
|
Now the game is on!!
Community organizer, that is rich |
|
I knew this lady had it in her!
Obama was TROUNCED and HUMILIATED by Rudy and Sarah.. There will be so much gnashing from the losers.
I loved every word.
|

YES YES YES
She is the best thing to come along it quite a while for the republicans!!!
I just love her whole family!!!
She will kick butt in Washington
Her family will be just fine.
The littlest girl was so precious with her little brother. With love and tenderness in the heart of a child that size it is proof that those parents have done an exceptional job with those children.
Bristol, God bless her for what the media is doing. My prayers are with her. Her mom, It doesn't look like she'll need them, but she will be in my prayers Too. |

I had the intuition that Palin would connect. This is truly the future of the GOP. Palin and her type of politician is just right for America. McCain surely did himself a stroke of genius with this and even I can support him with enthusiasm now. Watch the libs turn the sleaze machine up to full throttle now. Oabmmy is now the big ZERO! |
|
Sarah Palin is terrific. She may not be as good a speaker as Obama, but she's pretty good. And did you notice when she pointed out, "As a chief executive . . . ." Just a little jab at her experience and Obama's lack of it.
She's going to eat Joe Biden's lunch in the debate. "Go ahead, Joe - make my day!"
As Laura Ingraham would say, "Power to the people!" - especially to Sarah Palin.
She's brought new energy and excitement to this campaign; for the first time since it became obvious McCain would be our candidate, I'm actually excited. GO SARAH!!!! :) |

The libs are already on the attack after her speech. They're seething. This is great :D |
|
|
Fantastic speech, great character, and great story of her experience and why to choose republicans. |
|
|
Awesome speech! I think the cursing just got a little louder at Obama headquarters! |
|
Love her!
I cannot wait for the rest of the world to see...
those who see Britney, and Paris, and Madonna and think that they represent the best of us.
This is what the American woman looks like. |
|
They are toast!
"I AM SARAH PALIN" at Ebay! |

Palin is doing a masterful job of doing what the Republican Party called on her to do: retain the conservatives who have not yet been offended out of the Party by McCain. It's a big task to put onto a novice's shoulders, but desperate times call for desperate measures. If anyone can drag McCain's sorry carcase across the finish line in November, Palins's the one. |

Though I loved the comment about styrofoam columns, my favorite of the night was actually her comment that being a mayor is a bit like a community organizer, except with actual responsibility. It was particularly devastating coming right after Rudy's speech. |
|
I think I just developed my first crush on a politician. She was terrific.
