Consider the following:
Courageous Mother (gorgeous to boot), who chooses life over abortion knowing tht she would be raising a Down's Sydrome child, thereby going against the "PC" line of thought; Mother is also lifetime NRA, and committed Pro-Life who is a Governor, hunts her own Moose (or is that Meese?); knows energy policy as well as any Washington policy wonk;
Husband is a real guy; races Snow "Machines", works in the oil business (but apparently more as a roughtneck); and is a commercial fisherman (ever seen that Discovery show about the most dangerous catch about guys who fish in cold climate weather);
Oldest son about to deploy overseas in harm's way (think John Wayne) (both father and son show their independence by being regisered as independents!!);
Daughters are about as All-American looking as they can be.
Now comes the so-called scandals!!!!
Dad got a DUI when he was around 22. Now be honest,, how many folks amongst us got a DUI once when we were young.... especially before the policy against such changed in the 1980s;
Daughter is 17 and becomes pregnant... how many amongst us had this happen to your family or your friend's, etc. PLUS she is keeping the child and marrying the father!!!!
I'm telling you.... everything about the above is a plus in the mind's eye of the average American voter...
think NASCAR dads, Soccer Moms, Mothers and Fathers of teenage daughters, Parents and siblings of those serving in the military, pro-life folks, and pro-choice folks who secretly wish they ahd the convictions of the Palin family......
Frankly, you've got the political version of the Rev. Camden family...
I'm sure tht McCain had Frank Luntz review everyone of these factors or he ran them through his own mind.
Brilliant.... America is gong to love this family and WANT them elected so they can tune in next week to be inspired and reassured that the folks in charge are finally, truly, just like them.
Very well put!!!
Now, if they can just get the youngest daughter to shoot a burglar or something......
Aint the Huxtables..err Obama’s real?
Liberal women will hate her. They are so jealous of this woman.
I Agree. None of this is any surprise to McCain. Very very shrewd on his part. I think He will make a fine CIC. Most Americans can relate to Palin’s family situation. How many people out there are without a child or a grand child because the mother took the easy way out? I became prolife when my own unmarried daughter had a child. She still isnt married but I cant imagine the world without my grandson. This whole thing makes me love Sarah and hate the Libtards even more.
I keep thinking to myself I had no idea McCain was a genius.
That little girl is really cute
This, to many liberal women, is what jackass-Obama gets for stealing the candidacy from Hillary... and I kind of agree; he politic-ed his way around Hillary to take the nomination.
So, Obama is a better politician than the Clintons... it means he is a bigger liar, is slimier, and more corrupt.
“Now, if they can just get the youngest daughter to shoot a burglar or something......”
Now that was funny...
Have you seen this website:
http://www.mccainblogette.com/index.shtml
Meghan McCain has her own blog and has posted several great pictures of traveling with the Palin family in the last few days.
lol
She’s doing a great job. I love checking in there.
yes...there’s even a ping list for it...I think tax-chick has the list...at least, I think that’s how her name is spelled...
I predict that Sarah Palin will within 48 hours retract her offer to run as McCain’s Vice President citing newly discovered family responsibilities that prevent her from performing the job.
I have never had a moose burger, what do they taste like - Chicken?
Plenty of "stay-at-home" mom's daughters get pregnant, too.
"DoingTheFrenchMistake" = the mistake of surrender. Yup.
