1. s sommer:Why does Mc Cain have such a thing for beauty queen contestants? With the same up-do hair?
Sarah is pretty cool, but there must be 10,000 women who would have been a better choice.
Such a “family values” person that she is going to hand off her little tiny disabled baby to the care of others, while she gets about the business of being the VP of the US, as soon as she figures out what the job entails, She admitted that she had no idea what the job would involve. This is so weird.

Why not the best?
Her record of going after pork was unmatched, and of rooting out corruption IN HER OWN PARTY.
Name a better governor.
And who would want one of those Foghorn Leghorn Senators on the ticket?
And she’s got more administrative experience than the other 3 candidates put together.

Aug 29, 2008 - 11:44 pm 4. Nancy Reyes:SSumer has the talking points already.
The stuff on the Daily Kos is even worse. If you thought they hated Hillary, just watch.
Aug 30, 2008 - 3:37 am 5. Dave:Listening to her acceptance speech, it hit me that nobody has made a speech on the national stage in decades that was so straightforward conservative in the average Joe sense. No policy wonk she, just a regular gal with values and a sense of American fun and can-do.
She puts her foot down and stomps corruption when most people would just give in and start participating in it, a la Trent Lott.
She’s fun, energetic, optimistic, hot (republican babes are always hotter than dems), a proven leader who gets promoted fast whenever she gets in charge of anything… and she has no negatives, like Romney’s haters on the evangelical side (still don’t get that, I”m an evangelical and I think he’s a great guy).
Genius pick, I think McCain won the election when he chose her.

“Get this on iTunes!!!”
Just checked, and it looks like it’s on there now. It seems to take a few hours for our RSS feed to successfully talk to iTunes.

Not much weirder than going after a successful career woman by way of her handicapped child. But to be expected from the Sisterhood.
You stay classy, now.

In what century are you living? You’re disgusting.
Aug 30, 2008 - 3:55 pm 10. TmjUtah:This campaign has been on for two years now.
The last two days have brought out more trolls and mobys with coordinated talking points than I’ve ever seen previously across the ’sphere.
Smell that stink? It’s fear.
