Fresh off his runoff victory Tuesday night, Georgia Republican Sen. Saxby Chambliss credited Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin with firing up his base.
“I can't overstate the impact she had down here,” Chambliss said during an interview Wednesday morning on Fox News.
“When she walks in a room, folks just explode,” he added. “And they really did pack the house everywhere we went. She's a dynamic lady, a great administrator, and I think she's got a great future in the Republican Party.”
Chambliss said that after watching her campaign on his behalf at several events Monday, he does not see her star status diminishing within the party.
The Republican also thanked John McCain and the other big name Republicans that came to Georgia, but said Palin made the biggest impact.
hmmm
Wonder why Saxby didn’t have McCain instead of Palin.
[snicker]
YOU BETCHA She Is Gonna be our 45th President. A Liberal’s worst nightmare. Whenever I see her on TV I yell out loud “THATS MY PRESIDENT RIGHT THERE!!”
“Our next president, folks.”
Until he’s innaugurated, Obama is the next president.
I don’t think our next President is known by name yet. Could end up being Nancy Pelosi. On account of the birth certificate issue.
Spoilsport
I think he meant the one after “The One”
Time to open up a store selling pitchforks, torches, rails, tar and feathers...
Hey - he's declared himself President of the Office of President-Elect. Who needs that pesky swearing-in thingy!
Oh come on! Do we have to ruin this thread with that too! I am all with you on that, BUT lets just bask in the glory that we ruined the democraps fillibuster proof majority and enjoy the fact that at least Saxby recognizes the fact that Sarah Palin is an ASSET to the REPUBLICANS!!!!!!
Go Sarah - 2012!
(Ooooooh..... Maybe Saxby is looking for a VP spot......hmmmmmmmmm something to think about!!!!)
Palin power-Ronnie power
Pelosi vs Palin 2012
Snicker
Mcamnsty
Mccain feingold
Mccain lieboreman
Mccain kennedy
Adios mclame
Ping!
This sounds a lot more authentic and accurate than the crap the McCain campaign and McCain handed back to Palin after the election.
See 13.
Oh come on that’s too easy. I don’t even think Pelosi could win Vermont LOL
I don't expect the Pubbies to hold the line.....
We've too many RINOS in Washington....to expect them to do the "right" thing.
She’d win DC.
Even DC I’m not certain
heh
Cindy “Mother Moonbat” Sheehan gave Speaker Pelosi a run for her money with almost no campaign funds or organization, beating the Republican to come in 2nd place!
Cindy Sheehan’s congressional bid (she beat the GOP candidate to come in 2nd!)

Wouldn't Biden take over if the SCOTUS rules against Obama?
I hate to see the Libs and media do to her what they have done to President Bush. Course, she might fight back!
She’d kick their ass. She has NO fear of these drones

Anti-Sara Freepers are deeply saddened.
I was at the rally in Atlanta and the whole place went crazy when Palin walked in. It was more like a rock concert than political rally. When her speech was over, She and Chambliss left the stage to shake hands with the first rows of the crowd. He was first and everyone was ignoring him, even the press taking photos from the platform. They all had their cameras aimed at Palin. Chambliss was going down the line all by himself almost totally ignored. I took his pix as he walked by me just because I felt sorry for him. Everyone was focused on the chaos behind him, Sarah. The crowds were crazy trying to get her photo, handshake or autograph. She took her time and was very gracious trying to please everyone. She shook my hand, but my daughter got a hug. It was great to see her in person. Chambliss goes back to Washington as a witness to Palin Power.
“...Sen. Saxby Chambliss credited Alaska Gov.

- - -
But has he figured out that he should blame himself
for dousing water on his base in the first place?
Big Subsidies for Agribusiness...
Amnesty for Illegals...
Compromised Energy Policy...
Big Bailout with sweeteners...
The list just goes on and on.
Sorry, can I say that I need like fifty hugs, a complete flash website and 30 more hours than the next week can offer to get through this semester. /sigh
Saxby will be on the road stumping for Palin in the next four years, or he sure sounds like it it anyway! Come see a RINO (hopefully soon reformed) from GA thanking Palin (some good ones too).
And if Saxby doesn’t support her when she runs for the presidency they have names for that in Hell.
But we need to condemn the sleazy double-entendres, as in this headline, which no liberal would ever permit to be linked, say, to Gov. Granholm.
Hey Saxby, maybe you could take conservative lessons from Sarahbarracuda.
Fifty-seven Leftists, plus Snowe, Collins and Specter.
They have their sixty.
Right. Even DC has standards. Someplace. At the Starbucks, at least.
I guess Saxby's victory is Palin's so that's something to be proud of.
Don’t worry. Kathleeen Parker will come along soon with a piece about how Sarah had nothing to do with the landslide for Saxby despite polling and Saxby’s admission to the contrary and they’ll attach themselves to that.
Besides promoting the idea of Presidentia Pelosi is an appeal to her vanity -- and that would help gum up the works somewhat, eh?
That’s my girl! I love it.
We need Minority Whips that aren't afraid to use one. :-)
Agreed.......................
“He’ll get the same respect given to President Bush by lefties and the lamestream media.”
I am with on this one all the way!!
He’s stupid,
he’s lazy,
he was “givien” his education etc by foreigners and terrorists.
As a matter of fact, was he even born or was he found under a rock?
He needs to prove where he was born and I want to see those grades that make him the “smartest man who ever stole an election”
Now, what makes folks think we should be proud of having him in the whitehouse??
We should all be wearing black armbands for the duration of his reign.
And if the GOP had more than two neural synapses, it would realize its future lies with folk like Palin.
Pssst, it won't.
You are so right, that she might fight back.
That is one of my complaints about GW, he wouldn’t fight back. He should have been in front of those cameras daily presenting his side of every issue. Remember how often we had to listen to BJClinton?
He thought he could just take the high road and the people would be smart enough to read his actions and not the media’s words.
Well, we have found out how stupid the American people can be-look who they voted for last month.
McCain will give the dems the sixty they need. If he sticks with his own party, he'll be just one among 40 or 41. But, sure if he crosses over, he's a traitor, but the NYT and WAPO will single him out to write glowingly how he's risen above partisan politics, which is something McCain has never been able to resist.
I still think we ended up with McCain because democrats crossed over and decided our candidate for us.
We can’t possibly have that many R’s who thought he was one of us.
And I do think Sarah the Great will fight back; she is from Alaska, a tough place to survive.
In DC, you have to fight fire with fire.
When you are the top dog, you better make sure everyone knows it. When you don’t, they just keep picking and picking at you until you are is the place that GW is in now.
I think he is a fine man, and just too gracious to get in there and fight with the despicable dems in DC.
Sarah? She just might be like a mama bear when and if she gets to DC. I would love to see her run and support her all the way. I think we all need to make plans to go to DC for rallys and really support the next person we think is our kind.
