Sarah Palin is the best thing that has happened with this
campaign. She is a breath of fresh air and I can hardly wait
to see her pull the “plugs” on Biden! :D
>>Thompson Takes Palin’s Temperature<<
That was really a visual I could have done without.
But yes she is a gamble. A worthy gamble, I think. Gambles are never sure things.
And rightly so. Bambi is a zero, Palin is a hero...nuff said.
A gamble? Sure, McCain is a gamble too, but one I am willing to take given the alternative. Palin and Jindal are the future of the GOP and yes it would have been nice if one or both of them were fully prepared to be POTUS, but you got to do the best you can with what you have got. It would have been nice if Palin could have spent more time in the minors before coming to the big league, but she is most likely a quick study and will rise to the job.
Senator Fred Thompson Praises Senator McCains Vice Presidential Pick
Tagline still alive and well. Maybe I won’t need to change it till after the election.
“rather skimpy resume” is the big lie being drilled in by repetition, and by constant presumtive phrases like this.
The substance of her resume kills both Obama’s and Biden’s. Obama hardly has a resume to speak of.
The real money quote here:
“I wonder sometimes what we call experience,” he drawled. “How much experience does Barack Obama have? Sitting on the floor of the Senate listening to people talk does not give you foreign-relations experience.”
I think Newsweek dude was trying to create a split where none exists here.
Friday the AP had pictures posted with captions that described Alaska as a “tiny” state. What, tiny as in Delaware tiny?
Wonder if it as large in square miles as Texas.
But, the best part of the article?
"Pushed by NEWSWEEK's reporters and editors to say whether having a pregnant teenage daughter and five-month-old baby with Down syndrome at home will raise questions about Palin's "priorities," Thompson responded by questioning the questioners. "Would you be saying that about man running for office in her shoes?"
Wow, put words in his mouth much?....This reporter is...well...um...pretty typical I guess.
Sounds to me as though the lass AND the lad have as much class as the lass's mother AND father.
The only part of Thompson's appearance that may not be helpful down the road? That admission of risk.
Could someone tell me when the announcement of potential VP wasn't risky, at least since the ratification of the twelfth amendment to the US Constitution?
Fred takes her tempreture. Whos checking Fred for a pulse?
Fred Thompson had better take his own temperature. It was slightly above room temp. a few months ago.
Fred Ping. There are even a couple of gnats.
I KNEW that even liberal women would be turned off by these attacks on Gov. Palin!
Does the senator have any parts picked out? we asked.
"I have a couple," he said.
Fred's right! Sarah's story would make a great movie!
Panties twisted there a bit, Andrew? LOL!
