Toby Keith Wooed By Sarah Palin, Says 'that Don't Make Me A Bad Guy'
CJTW ^ | 10/28/08 | Steve Hubbard

Just as his latest CD "That Don't Make Me A Bad Guy" hits store shelves today, Toby Keith tells People magazine he'll be voting Republican come November 4th, solely because of Vice-Presidential contender Sarah Palin. "I think she is the best thing in politics at that level I've ever seen. I hate politicians, and she's as far from one as you can get. She's a mother, she's a human being. And I can sympathize with her. She went from being an unknown governor to being on the cover of every magazine." Believe it or not, Keith is a longtime Democrat, who says he's now registered to vote as an independent.

"That Don't Make Me A Bad Guy" is the second album in a row Keith has produced himself. The first single, "She Never Cried In Front Of Me", currently sits atop the Billboard country chart. Toby's next release will be "God Love Her" and he's already made a video, his first one in a year and a half.

"She Never Cried In Front Of Me" is Keith's 24th Number One.

Keith has sold more than 25 million records in this decade alone.

"So he voted for Kerry?"

Highly unlikely - he actually endorsed Bush and campaigned with him in '04.

“While Keith has gone on the record praising Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama, he has never publicly endorsed either candidate.”

I see other women go stark, raving, bat-guano crazy at the mention of Palin's name and all I can think to myself is, "you feel envy."

Would that be..."Palin envy"?

/runs and hides

Good thing that Sarah has brought Toby to his senses.

Maybe giving his horses his beer got his head right. LOL

Heh. I think he’s always been a democrat, but he’s never been a liberal despite hanging out with Willie.

Maybe he is a Zell Miller type. The old Dem Party has been hijacked by these communists.

Shame so many democrats fail to see it. I know many, who still vote for them, pay a very little amount of attention to what their party has become.

Guess that is the danger that Washington reminded us about with party politics.

Good Sarah shook him up.

I was honored to meet Lacy once, and I think she is unquestionably the greatest female country singer in the world, and has been for the past 30 years. But I knew about her politics and made it a point not to bring that up. I have a feeling she must have heard some of the countless false rumors about Palin ginned up by the loony left ("she shoots wolves from helicopters!" etc.) and believed them. Being such an animal lover might have something to do with it, too.

BTW, I usually just cross entertainers off my list when they start spouting leftist drivel, so I hardly see any movies anymore. Lacy J. Dalton is the only one I make an exception for. She'd have to start openly promoting Marxism like Barack Obama before I'd deprive myself of hearing her sing.

I guess I would show him the receipts from his albums, and then his concerts. And THEN I would should him the picture. He knows it looks gay. He would feel shame.

You’ll never accept my word that I heard it. So we’ll move on.

Looks like there is some confusion about that. Guess Toby will have to make it clear.

This is interesting, because my understanding is that Keith is a dyed-in-the-wool Dem.

They're called Reagan democrats or blue-dog democrats.

A week or so ago, you had Dan Rather of all people coming out to defend Sarah. Then there was the NOW lady. now Toby Keith.

I think the biggest shocker was Alec Baldwin - after he met her on SNL - he was very taken with her - (I hear a chill breeze wafted over Hell at his complimentary words.)

ask them not to bring up the subject in your house while they're YOUR guest.

Absolutely spot on. One of the oldest tenets of civility. Do not be rude in someone else's house - nor allow someone to make you uncomfortable in yours.
