Report From Miami: Palin is a hit among Cubans

Posted on 08/30/2008 8:34:27 AM PDT by FreeManWhoCan

The news of Palin has rocked Miami. The pro-republican Cuban-American community here is going crazy! They love her and are energized. Florida will go to the Republicans once again this election cycle.

ALL SURFACY stuff.

Hey, I'm a shallow guy. What can I say. (not really, but...)

If you want to know more about Sarah Palin, check out Alaska Magazine's recent article about her. It was written months ago, before the VP hooplah, which means it is probably more honest and less hype.

I was impressed with her, and I think you will be also.

It’s not “surfacy” stuff. A person doesn’t give birth to, and care for five children, including one with Down’s Syndrome, if she’s just “surfacy” stuff. Nor does she become Governor of Alaska by taking on the good old boys based on “surfacy” stuff.

Do your homework. :)


I have done my homework on her - thin resume and NO foreign policy experience.

God forbid, McCain wins, keels over dead and she is President as we are at war with another country. HOw will she handle that 3AM call? She’s there for gender idenity.

As IF Obama has “foreign” policy experience...what pray tell, is so great on his resume’. What Republican HAS foreign policy experience? Don’t say Condi Rice. She didn’t want to run and she’s WAY too Liberal.

BTW, Mrs. Palin isn’t running for POTUS.

Hey, that gives me a good idea.

The Obama logo, versus Palin.

For this idea, we need somebody good with photoshop or graphics.

On one side of the picture is the Obama logo serving as a target for... Palin shooting her rifle at the logo and a bullet heading straight to the bulls-eye. The caption at the bottom of the graphic would read “It’s Over”.

You:

My original question:

God forbid, McCain wins, keels over dead and she is President as we are at war with another country. How will she handle that 3AM call? She’s there for gender identity.

Ignoring my question and hanging the subject is not an answer.

“As IF Obama has “foreign” policy experience...what pray tell, is so great on his resume’.”

My question was not about the Obomination. He's there for color. They're playing the race game with a true LIBERAL.

“What Republican HAS foreign policy experience?”

WOW! Guess all Republicans are dopes?

“Don’t say Condi Rice.”

Guess being Secretary Of State isn't good enough?

Ever see her background?

“She didn’t want to run and she’s WAY too Liberal.”

No kidding she didn't want to run. Again that has NOTHING to do with my original question! FOCUS!!!!! Whether or not she is “liberal” on social issues or not doesn't matter in her position. I fail to see what Condi has to do with whether or not Sarah is up for the job of Commander in Chief if McCain keels over. YOU should be thinking about this. McCain is no spring chicken.

“BTW, Mrs. Palin isn’t running for POTUS/”

No, she is not. She's running for VP. Maybe this is new to you but the VP does take over if something happens to the President.

The older established Cuban community in Fl are solid folks. Conservative, hard working Americans.
I suggest FR’s visit this site.

Hard to imagine that asking what they like about her is a “conversation with myslef”. I saw a few replies to that question ... mighty touchy today, aren’t we ... ?

“No, she is not. She’s running for VP. Maybe this is new to you but the VP does take over if something happens to the President.”

Would you prefer Biden? Or the next in line, Pelosi?

You’re the one that is confused.

About “bearing false witness” ... what are you on?

I would imagine you are impressed with her 17 year old being pregant and single too? Yes, yes, she won’t have an abortion and eventually will marry the “father”. How nice.
Has Sarah been paying more attention to her family and raising them properly, I doubt that her 17 year old daughter would be pregnant. Well, maybe Mr. Mom will do something now that Mom is busied up even more.

BTW, do you know how these hicks named their kids?

Track (19) is named after, you guessed it! A running TRACK. No kidding! Bristol, the 17 year old that is pregnant is named after “Bristol Bay”. No kidding. So well thought out ... Willow (14) is named after some location in Alaska. Piper believe it or not is named after their piper PLANE - as in AIRPLANE. The last one Trig, well think of math for that one.

If Palin gets in I hope her daughter has the decency to get married and remain married till after he Mom’s one term. There’s no way, in this age, that a 17 year old will have a successful marriage. The stats aren’t lying as I’m sure you will be doing to spin this in a positive way.

Yes, yes you’ll find a way to spin this in some glorious way. Get pregnant then marry the father when you are only a teenager. Yes,this is lovely. A loose cannon that neglects her family - lovely.

Now the GOP must act like being a SINGLE TEENAGE DAUGHER getting pregnant is wonderful!!!

Ah, there it is. ‘HICKS’....nice. Your bigotry and ignorance is showing. You’ll forgive me if I don’t bother reading your reply.

Huh?

Exactly.

Again, why would asking WHY Cubans are “impressed with her” is a perfectly normal question.

The more I see of this hicky, loose cannon the less impressed I am of them.

Dear Bristol, 17 years old is single and pregnant. Yes, yes, she runs a tight family ... if only she was around. Mr. Mom failed as well. The GOP has gotten desperate ... now spin it around that this is a good thing - single teen, pregnant! Mom wouldn’t know, what her kids are up to. She’s been too busy bringing home the bacon. Who knows what her dopey husband has been doing ... .

After viewing the names of her kids, Bristol, as in BRISTOL BAY, Piper for AIPLANE, Track as in a running TRACK, Trig, as in MATH, Willow as in some location in Alaska and now Bristol having a child .... hmmm backseat? Maybe that will be the name for that child. I am so unimpressed with this “fabulous Christian pick” of McPain.

Yes, HICKS!

Will the latest baby to be born, by SINGLE teen, (17 years old), Bristol, as in Bristol Bay be named “backseat”?

What about her brother living in a shack in Africa, on about $200/year. Oh wait a minute that's Barak’s brother.

BTW, dear Brstol Bay is FIVE MONTHS pregnant!

I suppose even Mom had to finally NOTICE THAT.

If she can’t control a 17 year old, how is she going to manage being a VP?

The supermom myth doesn’t work!

I could over look allot if her kids were raised. They are not. They are little kids and a new born that will require allot of TLC. This candidate is perpetuaing a myth - super mom! It doesn’t work and she is proving it.

As a SOCIAL and FISCAL CONSERVATIVE, I am very disappointed in McPain’s gender identity pick. Oh, we have trooper gate to look forward to ... in the fall with Sarah. GEESH, McPAIN!

I know, I will hold my nose one more time ... .

I’m sure I’ve been at FR longer that you. I’ve seena steady decline in conservative values and stances here, at FR.

Maybe YOU should hang at DU?

The Palin family values may suit YOU better.

BTW, dear Brstol Bay is FIVE MONTHS pregnant! Guess Mom finally noticed ... and Mr. Mom was too busy?
