While the rest of the United States scrambles to figure out who on earth Sarah Palin is, Joe Biden is about to find out what us Alaskans have known for years:
Sarah Palin chews up and spits out good ole boys (like Senator Biden) like last year’s moose jerky.
Sarah Palin handily defeated an incumbent governor in the primaries, Frank Murkowski. Remember, Murkowski, like Joe Biden, was a US Senator, but he couldn’t come close to standing up to Sarah.
Sarah’s appointment is certainly a great moment for women in politics, as it is for Alaskans, whose congregational delegation is a whopping 3 people, but whether or not America has figured it out, the Republicans finally have a Reagan Republican on the ticket: cut spending, cut waste, strong military, energy indepence, etc., plus she is environmentally friendly.
The only way this could be better would be if she was at the TOP of the ticket!

Guess there’s a little too much moose pee in the streams up in AK…

I’m glad WA Stokins made that comment, so everyone can witness first hand the mentality of the Palin bashing herd.
Can you imagine that a POSER like Barack Obama, with his make believe presidential seal, could be 60 days away from the presidency, much less a heartbeat?
If Obama has so much political experience, then why is America much more aware of his speeches than his portfolio of reforms? Apparently Obama measures experience by the number of words spoken, not the number of actions taken.
What has Obama done for the state of Illinois? And what has he done since becoming a US Senator, other than promote himself?
Obama’s circular logic had him claiming he was qualified to be president, because he’s run a presidential campaign.
Uh, okay. And what exactly does Obama “campaign manager” David Plouffe do again? Bring his Poser-ness his morning coffee?
Barack Obama is a self absorbed narcissist, who has written more about himself than he has for his constituents in Illinois.
Obama is a made for TV candidate in the age of American Idol. And obviously, American Idol has a lot of fans.
Not only is Barack Obama not qualified to lead this country, he’s not even qualified to claim to know “what the American people want.”
Exactly when did Obama qualify himself to be so in touch with Americans?
Was it his $4 million income last year from writing books about himself that gives him his gift with the common person?
Was it his underage drinking in high school?
Was it his marijuana and cocaine use as an adult?
Is it his Harvard law degree that makes Obama think he is so in touch with what Americans want?
Or is it the $1.65 million house he lives in, purchased in league with a campaign campaign contributor who at the time was “under scrutiny for alleged political corruption.”
Barack Obama is a self absorbed narcissist who does more for the advancement of his career than for those he was elected to serve.
Obama supporters should be embarrassed, and find themselves a real candidate instead of the Harvard Law cardboard cut out.
Palin exposed just what a poser Barack Obama really is in her speech last night, and Joe Biden is next.
If you weren’t excited about McCain, at least Palin is someone you can genuinely be excited about, assuming you aren’t too proud to admit you were wrong about Obama.

Biden will be totally out of his bowling league. He has a hot temper; Palin will chill him out with intelligence and wit. She would woopass on Obama as well. She is tool authentic for him to handle.
I think Biden is more competent than Obama, but, will lose to Palin with those on the fence.
The big surprise will be McCain teaching Obama how it is done.
Mark my words - After the debates it will be all over.

Uh, did you see the Couric Interview? or any of the others, Sarah Palin should be smart and quit now and go back to Alaska. Biden will slaughter her as she stumbles over he own words during the debate. This will be no contest. I actually feel sorry for the woman; she seems like a nice enough, intelligent enough person but she can compare to people on the national stage like Biden, Obama, Hillary Clinton, or McCain. Any of those people would chew her up and spit her out during a debate. She’s a clueless caribou barbie (moose mom?) .

Palin is going to get completely destroyed, and the conservatives and GOP knows it. First, you saw her interview with Charles Gibson? Horrible. Second, you saw her interview with Katie Couric? Even worse. The GOP is doing everything it can to SHIELD Palin from the media and from doing more interviews because they know it will only confirm people’s suspicions that Palin is WAY IN OVER HER HEAD for the office of VP. Lastly, now she has to debate Biden who is a seasoned veteran as far as Washington and International politics goes, and I dont care how well Palin’s coaching is, she cant possibly defend herself against questions on foreign policy or international relations because she has ABSOLUTELY NO EXPERIENCE IN THAT ARENA. The more people see and hear her and her ridiculous answers, the more people will realize just how completely out of her league she is trying to become the next VP. I dont care how the GOP tries to spin it, they are worried about her, and worried that they made the completely WRONG CHOICE by nominating her.

Boy, will I enjoy returning to this site after the Thursday debates.

CNN polls say 84% of those who watched the debate feel Palin exceeded expectations.
Granted, after Couric expectations were quite low…
But I’m curious if those who made negative comments are honest enough to admit Palin did well, or if they are too biased and proud to acknowledge any reality that rattles their predispositions.
