Greta interviewed Todd Palin tonight. Second interview up tomorrow night. Todd Palin talked about himself, how he met Sarah and his love of snowmachine racing.
The film maker was great. Very complimentary of Sarah and said she qualifies as an “incredible woman”
I cant find the interview on their site?
I dont have foxnews...do you have a link?
Really delightful piece done by Greta. Even she was, I think, charmed by both Todd and Sarah.
Yes,the interview was captivating....I sat mesmerized..
We're seeing an unbelievable transposition in this country of the political scene..
It's time to usher out the Obamas, Durbins, Clintons and the rest that are totally out of touch with the America..
This is not racist...I think that people like Condi Rice...and J. C. Watts actually can do more for minorities than the Jessie Jackson's and Obamas..of this country....
I think we are witnessing something wonderful... as in 2001 Space Odyssey
Saw the interview. Called her an “incredible woman”. The filmaker was very gracious. The interview with “The Dude” Scott was also great. A union guy, shiftworker, fisherman. This family is the most normal family we have seen in years at this level of politics. No wonder the filthy MSM hates them so much.
The Dude will easily connect with dudes across the nation. :-)
Todd Palin is an interesting guy. The interview was performed fairly.
When I posted I did not realize there was a post just seconds before mine. I asked mods to determine if mine should be taken down, so far they are keeping mine up so let’s go!
Thank you!
Think that they are a wonderful couple with a loving family.
We are so lucky to have them on the national scene.
Blessings on them all.
I’m a Canadian — and I feel so proud of Sarah Palin, as a woman, as a Governor, as an American, as an Alaskan — that I could feel tugs at my heartstrings to put on my mukluks and pack my coldweather gear and my computer and move to Alaska. I think other Canadians are reacting to Sarah as I am.
There could be a migration to Alaska because of Sarah (and Todd), and I think the tourist trade could expand tremendously. North Americans cannot help but feel the pull of the wilderness and the strength of the people who live there, after having been exposed to the remarkable Palins.
I was so very impressed with Todd Palin, and it was apparent that there is a fantastic solidity to that marriage, with such an obvious mutual respect. The First Dude is as amazing in his way, as his equally amazing wife.
Can’t help but feel the country - any country - is in good hands with people like this.
Todd Palin was terrific. Sarah is correct to call him Dude. Very quiet spoken, not a bragger, just answered the questions from Greta.
Looking forward to tomorrow night interview.
Sarah and Todd Palin are regular people....regular Americans. How shocking to the left these people are...elitist snobs. We win and they lose.
Real people in politics. How refreshing.
This guy reminds me of some people in my own family.
Oh Yes, I believe the both of them will easily. Sports, racing, fishing, guns, family and God. Can’t beat that!!
Thank you
WOW border bud, I agree! Great post!!
I agree with you. The Palin Family is really like so many families. Just hope all the families vote!
Carley, they will need a lot of prayer.
Real people in politics. You betcha!
The 1995 snow machine race win interview was great!!!! She is utterly darling.
Now which network has been fair and balanced?
I pick -— FOX they are 2 and 0 soon to be 3 and 0.
That was 2010.
We definately need Sarah and Todd.
Todd is a man's man who tackles his world with his head AND his hands, and not some metro-sexual who sits in some high-rise office manipulating words (like the MSM), or people (like the Beltway elite). And Sarah is a wife who truly does "stand by her man", but is not afraid to be her own woman and excel at what she sets her mind to. And it drives the MSM and the politicians nuts because she cannot be cast into the Betty Crocker homemaker mold, nor the flaming femi-nazi one.
And on top of all this, they delight in their love for each other, for their children, their nation--and their God!
How dare they be so--so--American!
Your post was just wonderful.
I think America is tired of the old crowd and will elect Sarah Palin just for the reasons you explained. Go Sarah!
Yes, the ABC one was a gestapo interrogation....Did You ever watch “Marathon Man” with Dustin Hoffman....That's what it reminded my of...
Gosh somehow I missed the ABC interview with Todd. I rarely go to the networks T.V. I get very upset with the programming.
If Sarah Palin picks a minority for VP (when’s she’s nominated for the Presidency) - game, set, match for the Rats.
I agree that if, and when, Sarah picks a minority as VP it is match.
Actually just Sarah in the race now is the game!

Oh man, I’m getting that shiver up my leg :) Tod could have a huge impact as well.
Todd is a replica of my life. Since he is 3 years and 9 months younger than me!!! lol!! I fly, I’m a commercial fisherman and I ride dirtbikes, shoot guns, have not hunted in years though, etc...
Way to go Todd. A true American living the American dream.
Time for normal Americans to take back the country from the fat cats, the elitists, and the snobs. I’m looking at you, Obama.
We are witnessing something historical in this country with her. The country will go back to the people..no more of these people who groom themselves for politics, going to law school and all that crap. WE NEED MORE PEOPLE. You will see more people going into their local politics. I AM. I am taking a couple of classes offered by my local city government and it’s fascinating...who knows..but it’s attainable and we need more Sarah’s.
Great interview. What I noticed is not just his easy-going charm, his full lifestyle but how concise and to the point that he is. Great asset to Sarah and soon the nation.
Hildy, I contacted the McCain campaign back on September 5th when I was so excited, I signed up to work for them. I got back an email that wanted my resume. I was in Denver at the time on business so didn’t get back until today.
I said you want a resume, I’ll give you a resume. Someone from the campaign should contact Jim Robinson and get approval for contact with US. We have no time for resume we must start working right away.
Time is short and from what I have read on FReeRepublic, some are not treated correctly. Volunteer4@JohnMcCain.com, Jacob Champion,Deputy Director of Volunteers.
Love you for what you do! You are a dude!!
Wow! Just, wow!
The Dude is a real he-man - good looking, rugged but with a sense of style, not afraid to put muscle and mind into his work, a good speaker who’s respectful in responses, supportive of his wife of 20 years, and appears to have a good head on his shoulders. Dare I say there’s something of a Southern charm about him. Heck, he’s likely to turn many a metrosexual into men again.
You know that happened to me too....they asked for volunteers to go to other states the last two weeks before the election. Having time, I wrote and they want a resume...HERE’S MY RESUME...I have time and will pay my own way. What more do they want?
Wow is right! Sarah and Todd are out campaigning together- we know why now!
Really delightful piece done by Greta. Even she was, I think, charmed by both Todd and Sarah.
Excellent interview and video footage by Greta tonight. I honestly think I could watch a weekly "reality" show about the Palins (and I'm no fan of reality shows). Sarah and Todd Palin are extremely interesting people... based in a beautiful and unique place (Alaska).
Watching this now. Funny, I missed the interview of Biden’s wife /sarc.
It is too bad he doesn’t work the crowds more, he blows away almost all of the hardcore politicos. Just a normal great guy married to an extraordinary woman.
The campaign needs to utilize his talent. he ould be an effective spokesman for John & Sarah in places like Pennsylvania, Michigan, New Mexico, Nevada, /Colorado, etc. I hope that his talents and assets are put to good use if he makes himself available.
You lost all of us... Please explain..
REally? I thought it was the first one...Or was 2010 the first one.?.....
Lurching? What is lurching?
I think prayers are needed for their safety, with the astonishing level of outright derangement from the political left.
The utilization of volunteers in any campaign much less one for this office is quite daunting. It requires a coordinated plan, you cant just throw manpower into the street and hope to accomplish anything. Also you need to vett the volunteers.
Having said that a resume seems a little much. A questioneer IMO would suffice.
Have a little understanding for the campaign, it is apperent that they are well orginized.
