I thought it was a good speech. I thank the speech writers for creating it. I feel like I know her family much better now. I couldn't get enough of it from the media.

True. I flipped through all the MSM sites this AM, and found nothing but praise for a her speech.

What's even funnier is the poster who so often says Americans are 'too stupid to [fill in the partisan blank]', is now spouting about Americans are too smart to be fooled by this speech.

The irony is truly delicious, especially since I have yet to hear any reports that she gave her speechwriter head so that she was ensured to have a great speech.

Your are promoting and worshiping Obama: a candidate who will slam the economy with a parade of massive tax increases at a time when the US economy is fragile. He is specifically targeting the business world, reflecting the crude stupidity and arrogance of the left at it worst - turning American business into the enemy.

McCain has little that is new to offer. Neither does Palin. But they have more appeal than would be expected because so many people are understandably worried about the far left taking over the economy and smashing it to pieces.

So there's no need to tell anyone here that you are not on the left. That is about as convincing, and as absurd, as your claim to be "post-partisan">

I thought it was a very good speech as well. . .

Edit: I forgot to add the fact that she's a MILF

I agree, your words are funny, and ironic.

theyre also a death knell for the 'Liberal elite Media' etc etc

This is quite true, regardless of how badly Alabama has sucked ass in the last few years.I'm not saying she didn't do that.I've worked many DV and divorce OSB (officer stand-by) and can't tell you how many charges I have heard issued against men that are made up. I don't know the specifics in this case. This guy may be the real-deal sack of human crap. There is no way that either you or could know this.

Regardless, that's besides the point. Her former son-in-law is irrelevant. If she used the power of her office to unsucessfully influence, and then fire, someone who wouldn't do her bidding, she will be, and stay with me here, a disgraced felon.

Exactly part and parcel of what most conservatives, it would seem, want today.

Is that clear?

By the way, it was a good speech. She was able to use the media talking points about herself to good effect.

Didnt offer much in the way of policy, but thats ok as the ticket is more about defending the past in the end than changing the future.

The speech was a shrewd success, and it doesn't matter what she or anyone else says about McCain.

How is it possible that you and the other lefties on the forum do not know this?

Contempt and anger and condescension are no substitutes for knowledge. You have to understand how the opposition thinks - and you seem to have no undrestanding in how Republicans think. You don't even express interest.

The Beloved One is the focus of this campaign. Palin went after all the vulnerable areas for Democrats - both the stereotypes and the real issues, and there is often overlap.

The left is so arrogant and contemptuous of conservatives that they have forgotten that there are real concerns out there.

Obama has never given the slightest indication that he understands that the world is a dangerous place.

How will he serve as commander in chief if he is a pacifist? He is stuffed with love - love that pours out and floods the universe. This is all very well as a joke, but how will he serve as head of the military?

How will his huge tax increases effect the economy? Or rather, how will they hurt the economy?

How will people who are not on the left fit into the world of Obama and his leftist friends?

These are genuine questions. The Democrats turn away from them with amused contempt.

Palin comes out and slams them on all these things.

The problem is that she - and the GOP - do not really have a positive message. That is probably enough for them to lose.

But it is nevertheless a close race. And Palin's speech is the clue as to why: if you care enough about polutics to listen and think seriously.

I believe that the correct term is VPILF:

It's wonderful if you're a hardcore religious conservative. I agree with whoever it was that said she'll help to shore up the Christain conservative vote for McCain and that it isn't going to bring any moderates into the Republican fold.

Well, hell, we just disagree. I listened to tired, easily dismissed party rhetoic, preached to the typcial bottom-end of our nation, social conservatives, typical busy-body bullshit that will not, under any circumstances, stand true to her/their rhetoric.This is trueThis is also true.

The hilarious thing is, there will never be enough of them.

I'm no Dem, but I will be quite pleased when this corrupt POS goes back to the hinterlands. Maybe the suckers there will buy her utter bullshit.By definition, to the masses, a most assured yes.Again, we disagree. He speech was, frankly, pandering shit. I watched it, it sounds like you did, but most people in this country spared themselves the pain of sucking on her cold afterburners.

She sucked.Whatever, man.

If it goes through, she's a felon. Just like a lot of people in power now. Do you, uh, like felons ruling over you? I know I don't.
G'head. Tell us all about Obama's 'acquaintances'.

Agreed. Some interesting, get to the heart of it comments here.

They do, they just mean successful in different ways, re the wider public.

Hmm. Very common complaint.

They feel those concerns are answered.

The Dems dont run on a fear agenda, it contradicts hope. For me personally the fear agenda makes Americans look silly.

Probably very well. A loved America will get more done and thus make a safer america and world. Are you sure you know what the left thinks?

Hmm, huge is a strange term. marginal taxation is not hurtful to the economy. The 50s and 60s seen much larger taxation and rapid growth. Didnt do so bad in the 90s either.

Weird question. The usual way. How did the left fit into Bush's world? That said, I doubt Obama will bother trying to alienate the right. All he has to do is leave their guns alone and stake out an energy plan and theyll be fine.

Actually, theyll answer them, the trouble is they disagree with many of the assumptions in these questions so it takes time to get past that.

Agreed. For me it really has become a choice between Hope and Fear.

Before I start, can I just ask you a question?

Are you fucking kidding us?

McCain is irrelevant here. I see you don't understand that, other than the fact that he picked a live time-bomb, like himself, to fill shoes that he himself can't.Trust me, I have great knowledge, as do most here. Tell me: why has she been utterly shielded from press interviews up until and including right now?Stereotypes and issues overlap? Care to indulge us with what you actually mean, dispensing with such BS?Of course. Because this administration hasn't fucked anyone but the wealthy up in their asses, w/out the benefit of Vaseline, for 8 years. Go ahead and talk about those 'real issues'.Really? That's why he said he's bolster our troops in AFG? That's why he want's to send them into PKG? Do you tire of telling flat-out nonsense?Nonsense. He would invade PKG. You fear to recognize this. Why is that?Tell me about those tax increases. Please be very, very specific.Who know? Why ask stupid questions?No, they're not. I've seen nothing geuine or honest yet.She's done. I see no serious thinking here, or honesty, whatsoever.

What is America's obsession with guns, read weapons of mass destruction?

YouTube - Chick almost shoots herself!!!

Danny, you're being very partisan. Anyone could see that she did a bang-up job with her speech. Skewed a buncha facts, but it was a bang-up job nonetheless.

37 million watched the speech last night. Nice.

Three or four days of buildup vs months and months of hype, and the audiences were virtually the same.
