There are none so blind as those, that will not see.
“Oh good grief! The woman ran off every anti-Palin talking point there is and ALL have been refuted here over and over again.”
Silly little RINO PDSrs have very little brain.
... otherwise referred to, by the tireless little trolls of Team Romney, as "our campaign strategy." ;)
I was quoting a Scripture...The road to heaven is narrow and there are few that find it...Sarah Palin is not mentioned in the actual Scripture, I never said that she was.
However I am quite sure that Sarah is one of the few, so no worries :)
Only in comparison.
That hardly makes sense when you are discussing the most popular Governor in the nation, you become that by uniting people and winning the support of the voters of all persuasions and parties in your state.
I like to think of myself as a thoughtful Palin supporter. I’m also conservative and female. Some of the things this writer has ennumerated seem not properly justified to me. For starters, she says, “There are many other votes conservative women would cast for her if possible — U.S. senator, RNC committee chair, NOW president — but president of the United States is just not one of them.” I would cringe in distaste if Palin ever sought the presidency of the National Organization of pro-choice
Women. I would not be impressed if she sought a Senatorship, and yes, I would like to see her chair the RNC or the RNSC only because leadership there has been sorely lacking, with all due respect to Reince Priebus.
Second, this comment made no sense to me: Conservative women adore all of these things about Sarah Palin in the same way we adore a diamond. Much as we love these jewels in our lives, we also admit that their brilliance doesn’t illuminate every corner of our being. Sarah Palin is such a jewel. I don’t think most women would look to jewels to ‘illuminate every corner of their beings’. They have many other purposes, but that is not among them, I would wager.
Fritch asserts, “The show depicted a woman more interested in being seen and heard than a woman with an indispensable voice on the subjects that really matter.” For me, subjects that really matter are arguments such as QE2, and I’ve found Palin’s to be an indispensable voice on such as that, oil spill cleanups, etc.. In point of fact, it is to inform myself on those positions that I signed up on Facebook.
She contests: Why not simply explain oneself without a defensive “I know my history”? On that, I agree. I understand why Palin is exasperated, and I myself am exasperated by the patronizing and paternalistic attitude of Krauthammer, O’Re!lly and Wallace in talking about her, but I agree that she would’ve done well to be less defensive in answering that question.
I’m surprised that at this point in the article, after making these fatuous claims, she breezily adds, “While she passes the test of social and conservative convictions with flying colors, Palin simply does not excel in the hot seat.” How so, Ms. Fritch?
As to lacking a serious resume, if Fritch wants to say that, what she is actually asking is for us to disregard whatever else she has to say because while one may take swings at Palin, that is a vacuous rhetorical crack. The cherry on top was this: The conservative candidate will have to be so masterful at language, expression, and self-assured knowledge that she can speak candidly and from the bowels of her being without a hiccup or a worry of who thinks what. I’ve been counting the uhs, uhms and ers in politicans’ speech, and I hear very few of those in Palin’s parlance because she is self-assured and can speak candidly from the bowels on her being without either a hiccup, a worry or a teleprompter.
That's all you need to know.
“One other woman and myself probably came the closest when we said wed vote for her if she is the nominee. No one else would make that commitment.”
First of all I question the sincerity of your invented anecdote. But if it were real, and then would not vote for Palin over Obama......they are NOT conservatives, they are pretending to be conservatives.
Very well said!
That’s okay, it’s late and now I do understand. :-)
Isn't that special?
September 4th, 2008 - November 4th, 2008.
I think most women hate her because she’s beautiful.
It’s as simple as that.
What a bunch of shallow bull crap!
So, this idiot author expects me to believe that, if Palin were to get the GOP nomination, then “conservative women” would turn their backs on her—and give the Bung Hole Hussein another four years to DEVASTATE this country—all out of spite?
Get effing real!
I felt very bad about giving you wrong impression, you are one of the good guys.
Thanks :) my bad
Sarah Palin or bust.
Time for my bed, good night :)
That is your choice based on your prejudice, and you’re certainly welcome to it. There are lots of good-looking women who have no problem lauding other good-looking women in business, the sciences, etc..
Yeah, no lie.
Yes you were lying, trying to tell the people here that she had left office at an absurd 34% instead of an actual high approval rating of 56%, and even that was a result of her having become a national Republican and conservative symbol, which of course forced the Democrat voters in her state to give her lower approval than they had in the past.
