Does Sarah flip the script on Dems; Should Obama replace Biden on the ticket?(Vanity)

Posted on 09/04/2008 9:47:14 AM PDT by lt.america

I noticed during the post speech coverage that many commentators were wondering out loud that maybe the Democrats may be having second thoughts about Biden vs. Palin. In listening to Rush this morning, he brought up the same thing, and I wonder if Sarah Palin has flipped the script and that the Democrats may be seeking a better match against Gov. Palin. Normally I would dismiss this, but this is a crazy election cycle and McCain has shown that he is continuing to out maneuver Obama in an election that should be a slam dunk for Dems and Obama may need a game changer. Any thoughts?

Too late. He’s stuck with a brainless, loudmouthed, plagarizing jackass who’s been in the Senate for 35 years. Plus, he’s stuck with Biden’s son and brother, who are currently being sued for fraud, and his daughter, who was arrested for assaulting a cop. So much for “change”.

One of the reasons Obama picked “President” Biden was because his (Obama’s)own résumé was so shallow in comparison to McCain’s... and now we know shallow in comparison to Palin’s experience/achievements also.

Obama needed someone to prop him up.

The solution would be to replace community “organizer” Obama...

Unfortunately for the rats... it’s too late!

If Fauxbama flips his VP now, he basically is done. The VP pick is the first serious decision he’s had to make and if he calls for a mulligan on it, he’s done.


Hi HJ,

Have you noticed...that’s all the Left seems to do, call for mulligans!

The biggest one in recent years? The War in Iraq.

The War in Iraq that was voted for by both Republicans and Democrats in large percentages.

The War in Iraq that was voted on in a Senate controlled by the DEMOCRATS (as a result of Jumpin’ Jim Jeffords) in 2002.

The War in Iraq that fulfilled an act signed in 1998 by a Democrat president, Bill Clinton.

The War in Iraq that community organizer Barack Delano Obama said he would have voted against, had he been in the Senate at the time (versus his veep candidate Biden and his opponent, McCain, who were in the Senate and DID vote for it.)

The War in Iraq, for which both losers on the last Democrat presidential ticket voted yes, and then one renounced two years later (Breck Girl) and one said “if I knew then what I know now, I would not have voted for it”.

To paraphrase President Bush, the Commander-in-Chief:

Presidents
Don’t
Get
Do-overs.

“Arguing{Obama’s}experience against the VP is not a great strategy”

Exactly!

It only contrasts the incompetents of Obama compared to McCain.

But it was never about Obam’s substance — or lack thereof — was it?

It was about the promises of ‘hope and ‘change’ that came out of the ‘Messiah’s’ mouth.

Funny, because it’s McCain that is actually delivering on the ‘hope and change’ theme.

Before leaving for work I saw Biden on CNN. For the umteenth time he repeated his canned response, “missing in her speech was health care, social security, education, etc.” BUT then after praising her delivery admitted he does not think he could win a debate against her. My jaw dropped.

Biden will have "health" problems

Yes, they could claim that a "Plug Recall" has been issued and that Biden will have to undergo extensive and time consuming replugging procedure ;-)

O will dispose of anyone who hinders his campaign. He will have no problem dissing Biden as a drag on the ticket.
O does not believe it is possible for him to do any wrong. He is annointed.
He will throw the Constitution out when he deems it appropriate and necessary to fulfill his divine purpose.

Will Obama Dump Biden Off the Ticket?
September 4, 2008

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: We'll start in Memphis with Chris. Nice to have you.

CALLER: Hey, Rush. Mega US Air Force dittos to you. It's an honor.

RUSH: Thank you very much, sir. I appreciate that.

CALLER: Hey, I think we need to take a little bit of time here to thank Barack Obama for bringing about the change that we've been hoping for.

RUSH: (laughter)

CALLER: Had he picked Clinton, we would have Sarah Palin, and he may have single-handedly breathed 12 years of life into the conservative movement that he didn't intend to, which I think the irony is just beautiful.

RUSH: That's an interesting perspective you've got out there, Chris. I have to applaud you for that. Had he chosen Hillary, yeah, we'd have gotten Lieberman or somebody. You know what I think is funny? All these people talk about how long is it going to be before McCain has to dump her. You know, they're thinking about at the Obama campaign, "We gotta get Hillary on here somehow. We gotta." Believe me, when CNN starts asking people about it, a lot of other people are thinking about it besides CNN.

CALLER: Well, you know, I just additional I really appreciate him because him being a change agent like he is, you know, he just really...

RUSH: (laughing)

CALLER: He really did infuse a lot of change into this campaign. But my wife, she said she had to get a point in here, too. She said, "You know, the new face of conservatism might be wearing a skirt and makeup."

RUSH: (laughter) And lipstick!

CALLER: Yeah.

RUSH: All right, Chris. That's great. Obama: Finally, change we can believe in. (laughing) I just love turning all this back on these people. I loved Rudy Giuliani last night. Rudy was as good as I have heard him, and he had a smile on his face the whole time -- and his teleprompter screwed up. Rudy was fabulous last night. Fred Thompson was great. This thing has just exceeded everybody's expectations. Muskegan, Michigan. A sad day in Michigan today as the mayor of Detroit has had to quit. He's going to go to jail for 120 days and be fined some money, admitted to two felonies. So he's going to have to seek future elective office in Washington, perhaps as mayor there. Bob in Muskegan, welcome to the program.

CALLER: Mega Iraq war dittos, Rush.

RUSH: Thank you, sir. Thank you very much.

CALLER: I was calling because I watched the Palin speech, and it was magnificent. And the thing that's going to make, I think, surprise a lot of people is when the media goes after this woman because she dares to be a woman who is successful and is not a liberal. She's a feminist, but she's pro-life, pro gun. She has children. She loves her husband. I think John McCain won by putting her on the ticket.

RUSH: No question. There's another factor about her that you have to remember Daniel Henninger of the Wall Street Journal pointed this out today. The one thing that will never be said of Sarah Palin is that she's a victim. Hillary Clinton makes herself a victim and tries to play on that. Other women, a lot of liberal feminism is based on victimhood. A lot of liberalism period is based on victimhood. Sarah Palin does not go into victim mode. In fact, she doesn't complain. She just doesn't seem to complain. Yep. She fights back, is the point. She doesn't take it. I'll tell you what, as a mother with five kids, she's not going to sit here and watch those kids be destroyed by these little gnats in the media.
