As for the silly debate prep stuff, Palin kicked Astroturn Head in the nuts in that debate. He looked like the nasty, slimy jerk he is, overwhelmed with his Gore-sized self-love, while Palin looked like who she was, a woman who had achieved a lot on her own and who could handle this "genius" without breaking a sweat.
As I wrote on the other thread, I don't support Palin for president, but I'm definitely closer to doing so than I ever have been. When I see the endless obsession all the wrong people have with her, I figure there's something there I should support.
Exactly right. If she wasn't something major to reckon with the Left wouldn't go nuts like whining little girls about her.
“As I wrote on the other thread, I don’t support Palin for president, but I’m definitely closer to doing so than I ever have been. When I see the endless obsession all the wrong people have with her, I figure there’s something there I should support.”
She sure has all the right enemies. And the fact that the left (and moderate R’s) were still attacking her madly AFTER the election says she scares them.
I mean, how many LOSING VP candidates get any press attention at all in the month after the election. Quick, who was George McGovern’s VP candidate? Dole’s? Ford? I know the answers. But I have to think about it for a bit. Because losing VP candidates are non-persons in American politics.
Palin has a bigger-than-life quality that quite overwhelmed McCain on the ticket. Heck, McCain turned out crowds in the 2-5000 range. She routinely turned out 20,000. Plus, she obviously scares the bejeezus out of a bunch of really bad guys, who have been attacking her ever since she was nominated.
She’s a fascinating character and I’m very interested to see what she makes of the next few years.
Glad to see you coming around.
I know, you can sometimes tell the best person from his/her enemies.
When I see who shrieks with venomous hatred at her, I figure she’s got a lot going for her.
I do not know where this quote came from but it works for me:”Know Ye by your enemies.”. Also in the case of the Anti-Palin snipers “Birds of a feather f- -ck together”.
I doubt highly if Joe is even thinking about the debate in a bad or good way. He won the vice Presidency, she didn’t. I think he could care less if she won that debate or not. Why do we????
