McCain aides whose judgment I trust are impressed by Sarah Palin. One was particularly amused by this exchange: A nervous young McCain staffer took it upon himself to explain to Palin the facts of life in a national campaign, the intense scrutiny she'd be under from the media, the viciousness of the assault that she'd be facing, etc.:
Palin: "Thanks for the warning. By the way, do you know what they say the difference is between a hockey mom and a Pit Bull?"
McCain aide: "No, Governor."
Palin: "A hockey mom wears lipstick."
“Palin: “Thanks for the warning. By the way, do you know what they say the difference is between a hockey mom and a Pit Bull?”
McCain aide: “No, Governor.”
Palin: “A hockey mom wears lipstick.””
This should be incorporated in her speech tomorrow night.
That’s my kind of girl, right there!
“My SUV just ate your Pius”
You did mean to say Prius, right?
Or Piousness? LOL
OUTSTANDING!!!!!!!!!!!! This pick just looks better and better.
As someone who has been very involved in youth hockey for over 30 years (and married to a “hockey mom”), there is another difference: A pit bull would not DARE raise its voice to a hockey mom.
If you ever have any doubts about what kindof special woman this is, imagine getting up for at 3 AM for a 6 AM game, 100 miles away at an outdoor rink. Then tell her she’s unqualified - then duck. Better yet, run.
She is awesome.
I think she is going to do great. I really do.
Love it!
Palin Bump!
The last thing Sen. Biden sees before he's eviscerated (metaphorically speaking).
I agree.
BTW, congratulations on the twins!
So far... And I repeat SO FAR, FReepers have been classy enough to NOT post “ I’d hit that! “ under pix of VP Palin.
;-)
God I just love this woman!!!!! What a breath of fresh air she is!
Both sides can be happy when in four years she'll be both a career woman and a stay-at-home Mom! She'll be living in the White House.
I’m worried that when Palin debates Biden that she may walk over to his podium and make him cry.
"I am the governor of a big state where we don't run away and hide when things get rough. You may have read that my daughter is expecting a baby. She isn't married and is finishing high school. It wasn't what I wanted for my baby, but it is the way it is. I believe in abstinence. Had my daughter practiced it, she would not be pregnant now. I won't run away from my daughter, who I love, or my beliefs."
"I am an adult woman who is no one's victim. I am tough. I think America is finally ready for a strong woman as Vice President."
If she worked in the pit bull line after that, I bet a $1000 bucks it is the lead story on every network the following day.
Tacit understanding.
