My favorite quote of the last few days is “Alaska is littered with the bodies of politicians who underestimated Sarah Palin.”

[BunnySlippers]

I love how so many are describing her as the “gun toting beauty queen”. It sounds so FUN!

I think the whole world is going to fall in love with her.

“But she and other legislators were passed over after Mr Murkowski selected his own daughter, Lisa Murkowski, to fill the seat instead.”

Why does this disturb me? What is this? A monarchy?

“As pretty and as likeable as she can seem, I can assure you there are talons behind the gentle paws,” says one long-time Democratic observer.

That is exactly what is drawing me to her. The status quo in Washington is on the run. You really want "change?" If Governor Palin gets to Washington, you're going to see "change."

I just love this news! You all will too!

HOW THE PALIN PICK TRUMPS OBAMA-BIDEN

[papasmurf]

Oh, you forgot to mention that she has enjoyed enormously high approval ratings, never dropping below 80%, and was re-elected both times by a landslide.

Guess you just kinda’ forgot that, huh?

the gun-toting former beauty queen

hmmmmmm .... Maybe MTV should dig up Julie Brown (not the "Downtown" one, the other one) from whatever oblivion she's been buried in so she can do a reprisal of "Everybody Run! The Homecoming Queen's Got a Gun!"

But I'll settle for Tina Fey appearing on SNL as a beauty pageant contestant, in swimwear and high heels ...

It may be tempting for Democrats to dismiss Sarah Palin,. . . as a political lightweight unprepared for the national stage.

IMO, they know EXACTLY what a tough comeptitor she will be and are scared spitless -- hence these vile attacks on her. They see a slam-dunk accession to power slipping away.
