Perhaps we can have an Admin modify the title so that people can know the acronym instead of having to read downthread to figure it out?

Excellent!

They won't be able to help themselves; they will trail her and despite all their efforts to make her look bad, she'll persevere and will come out on top and will ‘connect’.

Expect many home-runs from this Lady.

"Sorry if this is a dumb question, but what’s “SCI”?"

I wondered that myself

Really???

I’m shocked!

Nobody has ever said she doesn't give a good speech.

Why are you too afraid to recognise the BAD about her, as well as the GOOD? Why do you seem to be so psychologically incapable of being mature in this sort of discussion?

To ask the question bluntly - does it bother you that Palin is weak on the illegal immigration issue, she urged Stevens to support the LOST treaty, and has been soft on the gay agenda lately?

I hadn’t viewed you as being so weak on politics in the past, but this has been an eye opener.

No “bad” has yet surfaced on Palin. She is not in any way “weak” on immigration; she simply has the sense not to unnecessarily commmit to a potentially damaging position.

Those that would destroy her would of course have her commit to every difficult position.

What you demonstrate here is why Republicans are so poor at winning local elections, leaving us with few rising stars in state contests. The left knows how to give their candidates a pass on the thorny ones, and the media go along happily, but Republicans insist on eating their own young.

Thank you SO much for posting..sounds like an amazing time! Glad that Sarah did not stop saying “Don’t retreat, reload” I knew the moment that started circulating on PUKElitco that it was total BS..everything from the media are lies..you can’t trust anything coming out of their lying traps, if you want the truth, gotta go with someone who was actually there. Glad that your husband came around too, the media tries over and over again trying to make her out to be some kind of idiot but when people actually do talk to her they see her for the intelligent woman she really is.

Thank you so much, dear SFmom, for such a wonderful, detailed report of your fabulous evening!

Daily Beast page 3

“After some boilerplate comments about how “local government is the most responsive and responsible to the will of the people” she paused for a moment and stared out across the ballroom. And then came this:

“that’s why I think every president should have a run at gaining experience by being a councilmember, a mayor, a governor, a VP candidate, a commercial fisherman, a hockey mom.”

As the attendees cheered, Palin made a halfhearted attempt to quiet them down. “No, I’m kidding,” she said, beaming.

Woo-Hoo! GO SARAH!

My sis and her date were there. They’re both from the SF area too.

she got a kick hearing about the article from Newsweak that described the goers as wearing ankle-length hides and Flintstone-style fang jewelry.

In case you missed it, here’s a first-hand take on the event from a FReeper who was there.
