There was something jarring about GOP candidate Sarah Palin's appearance at the vice presidential debate, and it was not just her refusal to answer questions, or the mock Reagan-esque mannerisms of the "there you go again" kind. Nor was it the misrepresentations, like her campaign's mendacious insistence that Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama would raise taxes on those earning $42,000 a year.
It was that come hither wink. Twice. It was the lowered voice.
It was the seduction of speaking directly to the camera audience, as if there was no one else in each living room of America, as if it were just her and the - presumably male or complicit female- viewer, while ignoring the debate questions, Joe Biden, Gwen Ifill, and everything else. Her less than subtle message was "you want me," and not in a charismatic political leader, vote-for-me sort of way. She was delivering a direct come-on to the audience.

That wink is at the heart of her campaign. The wink is all about sex, which is what made it all the more jarring in the context of the national debate. It was the wink of a bikini-clad model selling a car and a dodgy bill of goods. It was the wink of a temptress offering a promise that will never be kept.

think of the doctored picture of Palin in an American flag bikini holding a gun that is ubiquitous on the Internet. While an urban legend, it rang true. Try to imagine Hillary Rodham Clinton or Geraldine Ferraro or almost any other female politico in a bikini with a gun. Would the image be anything else but ludicrous?

I apologize in advance for laeving the "Hillary Rodham Clinton" in an American flag bikini holding a gun referrence in my excerpt. Please read the whole article. The Chronicle forced me to edit many priceless lines.
But I thought using sex to get people to do what you want was good??? Now I’m really confused. I mean the left uses it all the time.
The Left fears Palin.
These women grew up hating cheerleaders, anyway.

Saudi Cleric Says Women Must Wear One-Eye Veil to Prevent ‘Seduction’
Another case of beauty envy ... Tim Kingston probably can’t pull off the heels like Sarah can, and Lisa Moore is probably one of those hairy leftists who looks like she fell out of the ugly tree-hitting every branch on the way down.
“Try to imagine Hillary Rodham Clinton or Geraldine Ferraro or almost any other female politico in a bikini with a gun. Would the image be anything else but ludicrous?”
Define politico. And ludicrous isn’t the word I’d used to describe those two
It worked on me.

remember Obama girl?
They’re just jealous because Biden can’t wink with his surgically altered eyes.
Got it wrong again. Katie Couric was the cheerleader. Sarah Palin was the point guard on the basketball team.
“activist”
“Activist” = talentless, envy-driven, condescending shit disturber.
Obama for president? come on!
I don’t want to imagine what she’s just proposed,
because those women don’t work as hard to remain fit. And that’s what infuriates the left - they’re used to getting what they want simply because they are entitled to it and shouldn’t have to work for it.
the female hatred for Sarah reminds of the high school
‘mean girls’ who were snobish to the ‘regular girls’.
How about we all chip in and buy Lisa Moore an orgasm? Nothing too big, we don’t want to hurt herself the first time.
Damn...well, lunch wasn't that good today, anyway...
The hatred stems from the fact that
Palin’s life is taken as an indictment of their lives. It’s not anything she says to them, it’s simply their own consciences tweaking them.
Sarah in a bikini, WORKS FOR ME
I’d rather be winked at by a conservative polititian than hoodwinked by a liar.
Am I the only one to find it sad that average Americans knows more about Sarah Palin that we do about obama?
What kind of sexist is the author of this hit piece? Does this Lisa Moore think only men are allowed to wink?
