if they are saying it then it must be hurting real bad

She was SO good, they are now saying she's going to overshadow McCain. LOL First, they derise her as a lightweight. Then she turns out to be Ronald Reagan in a skirt, and now they are basically saying she is TOO strong. ROFL!

Their worst fear is that if McCain, who as President would give them lots of stuff they want by reaching across the aisle as a moderate/liberal Republican, were somehow incapacitated while serving his term, or worse, and SHE were to become President, the Bedrock God/Guns/Guts Conservatives would REALLY come home to rule to roost and they would have corpuscles exploding in their brains over it.

DU is apoplectic.

Any moment their death threats will start I would imagine. I would have the Secret Service monitoring those kooks. This proves she is effective and they hate it and fear it. It is fun to see them wetting their pants and losing their cool. There is not a reasoned, calm, strategist among them. These people are political amateurs and freak out when they are on the ropes. They sure show their soft underbellies. This will be like taking candy from a baby.

He had a full academic scholarship, you know. Pretty smart. Neil Kinnock smart, I hear. Deval Patrick smart, even.

Her lines about Obama were brutally cutting and possibly over the top in places.


Oh, you mean she was catty???

Dr. Phil and Letterman are dissing Governor Palin on the Late Show.

Letterman started on how the Palin family is fair game because they are in the political arena and good old Dr. Phil is agreeing with him.

Had to shut it off.

They've spent the past few days launching everything they've got against this newcomer, and she still just stomped right over them. They've got to be concerned.

Holy crap. She has to be agressive, to respond to Obama’s allegations.

This speech was PERFECT. Dems are scared by her, that’s the reason they begin to smear at her.

This after four days of throwing the kitchen sink at her, her children, her husband, her home town, her state. Bald-faced lies repeated in the nations biggest MSM outlets. Disgusting, obscene falsehoods spewed by grinning hatemongers with clown faces painted on.

She answers this bloody excrement-storm with a focussed speech, laced with humor, that doesn't even mention their candidate by name, and she's brutal?

As Einstein said, "you can evade reality, but you can't evade the consequences of evading reality."

Its over folks. I think McCain won the election tonight. Palin’s speech showed that she is qualified to be President if need be and take this country where conservatives have only dreamed....back to a country of God where killing fetuses is illegal in all respects and the enemies of America cower in fear.

Any takers?

An associate of hers was interviewed tonight and was asked "Did you expect her to do this well"? He replied that when she challenged the incumbent Gov in the primaries, (he was a 22 year US Senator before becoming Governor) she destroyed him in the debates, ergo she was in the general election. Challenging a Dem former governor, she did the same. Biden is in trouble.

And no, I will not touch that bet.

Obama and Biden now seem ordinary and over-famiiar.>>>

That is called hype now having reached its spoiling point. The stadium was Obama’s zenith...he peaked way too early for his own good and ego.

They are finished.

I don’t know a single person who doesn’t love Palin. 3 Democrats (hardcore Puerto Ricans) who voted Clinton twice and Gore phoned me to say they have seen the light and her name is Sarah Palin. They just loved her....everything about her they loved.

Never pick a fight with someone who could crosscheck your demo MVP while packing the kids lunches.

Clinton’s campaign manager was on Fox tonight and he said “We are in trouble”...that was all I needed to hear to make my night complete.

Sarah owned. Period. F-ck with her reputation and her family...and you find yourself sitting with your shine box on the curb begging for forgiveness.

I listened to Jon Caldera at 850koa.com tonight, he did a talk show for ‘ladies only’, in the second hour, I missed the first.

It was interesting, hearing the Hilary supporters call and switch to Palin.

He does not let you just make a statement, you must be able to also explain “why” you said it.

He should be on replay at the internet site.
