'YOU BETCHA' SHE BELONGED ON THE STAGE!

I walked in last night expecting a train wreck from our gal of the moment. Instead, I saw fireworks.

Sarah rules.

In her first, and last, vice-presidential debate, Sarah Palin was strong. Articulate. Folksy. And warm.

Joe Biden seemed afraid of hitting a girl.

Indian TV and newspapers today now are running stories of her famous WINK! This thing is global and it is viral. Very interesting, very funny, and of course, very deserved to be shoved in the face of cruel "mean spirited" (sorry to use that word) Democrats.

It wasn't a fair fight. He looked like an old guy not used to duking it out with dames.

I think she asked Biden if she could call him Joe so that she could use her “say it ain’t so, Joe” line later on. And doggone it, he agreed!

“The Democrats are probably glad there is only one vice presidential debate scheduled.” Tom Brokaw last night’s last line.

More than that - they gave the public, ready to write Sarah off as a ditz

Ever since Sarah was announced, the media has labeled her a ditz. Some of the media, who are supposed to be so above the fray and so tolerant, have been sexist pigs. The DBM has been trying to create the template that Sarah is a no experience ditz. They'll keep trying, but as long as Sarah goes over the DBM's head and straight to the people, she will triumph. They tried the same template with Reagan and failed.

Go, Sarah - you da girl!

Indian TV and newspapers today now are running stories of her famous WINK!

When I saw that WINK at the very beginning of the evening, I thought 'she captured the audience' (both local and across TV).

It made her personable. And that set the tone for the evening.

She came across as one of the ordinary Joe's, connecting with many 'average Americans'; whereas the real Joe came across as an ordinary politician.

I absolutely loved her last nite. The “folksy” part of her reminded me of the Reagan debate. Some here on FR felt she lost the debate. I beg to differ. The polls are being manipulated by the MSM and RAT activists so I don’t trust them. I know living in the bluest of blue states, Rhode Island, that many dyed-in-the-wool RATS are voting McCain/Palin. Its a battle for sure, but this “pit-bull in lipstick” came thru with a grand slam last nite.

Now McCain needs to clean up by exposing the relationship between the RATS and CRA/Fannie and Freddie/Acorn/LaRaza and the huge economic mess the RATS created through regulating the banking and lending industry through sub-prime mortgages.

The world may claim to want Obama as president, but they LOVE Sarah. Obama must be crapping his pants this morning at all the positive press.

LOL! Talk about being wrapped too tight. He reminded me of a chihuahua with its ears pulled back. Or The Great Gazoo, but that’s cuz of the whole big head thing.

During one question toward the end she called him out and he looked very much like a little boy being called to task by his mama. He hung his head and looked all sad, but true to form he popped his head up at the end and flashed his dentures.

Also, the part where he talked about his late wife, I'm sorry but his tearing up was very Clinton. Not that losing a spouse is not a tragedy but his tearing up was a bit too theatrical and disgusting.

Wonder what SNL will do? Tina Fey despises Sarah and what she stands for - hope her head is spinning this morning.

“Say it ain’t so, Joe” was a classic moment and she did with such skill. He didn’t know what hit him! Very Reaganesque!!!
