Whoever picked Sarah Palin must have been a genius
Boston Globe ^ | September 13, 2008 | Alex Beam

Posted on 09/13/2008 4:12:03 PM PDT by Vendek

Under the title, The Discreet charm of Republican Women, Boston Globe columnist, Alex Beam, breaks with the liberal herd's view of Sarah Palin:

"Whoever picked Palin must have been a genius. So she's not exactly sure what the Bush Doctrine is - who cares? The whole point of electing a new president is to get rid of the Bush Doctrine once and for all. Newspaper editorialists who cackle at her creationist leanings might want to look at some poll numbers. God still trumps Darwin, last time I checked.

Is there a line connecting Laura Bush to Sarah Palin? I think so. It is the line of unglamorous people who didn't go to the right schools and who never had famous friends. If only Matt Damon would promise to trash Sarah Palin every day between now and Nov. 4, the election would be McCain's to lose.

The Genius of God for putting Sarah Palin in McCain's path.

The Wisdom of John McCain for recognizing her as "What the people want?"

God gave her some extraordinary leadership qualities.

I know who "HE" is and "HE" is very, very powerful and "HE" is beyond genius, even beyond our understanding and the ways "HE" did it are past finding out... Let us not pray that "HE" is on our side, but let us pray that we are on "His" side.

We could also thank HIM for his grace and mercy and for pulling us up out of the crappper. :+}

Whoever picked Sarah Palin was listening to the genius above all geniuses, Almighty God, who was,m in turn, listening to American prayers.

" Perhaps he’s even not gay."

Now, now, you're libeling the man. If "man" is indeed the correct term.

Nancy Pelosi, astonishingly, is one of the most unpopular politicians in the country.

"Astonishingly"? Really? The bonehead meter is pegged, if this is really his opinion. He's being nice to Palin and all, but pleeeeease.

If I had to pick who I thought picked Mrs. Palin, I’d bet she was picked because of numerous discussions about her over the past 12 to 14 months on Free Republic. I think the Freepers picked her.

“Whoever picked Palin must have been a genius. So she's not exactly sure what the Bush Doctrine is - who cares?

The guy who asked the question got it wrong, she got it right......and the left is still making hay out of THIS?...How many doors/walls/bricks do these intellectual deserts have to walk in to?
