Aye. I think you were joking there, wasn't sure how to read it. Clever, Hail Barry, no way Jose! Hail Palin? Absolutely!!! Like in the context of a greeting. In modern parlance, the angel might have said "Hello, Mary." (the word hail may have had deeper significance, I don't know about that in their language, culture, and customs).
So I would say, "Hi, Sarah" or "Hello, Sarah", and likewise with almost anyone small or great if I encountered them in the great out there.
I read Obama is in trouble financially, which is neither here nor there because some PAC will come to his aid. So many have already paid their tithes to him, like $2300, and can't personally contribute any more. They are so scared they would contribute more if they could.
They can, again for the general election and to the DNC.
