[Georgia Senator Saxby]Chambliss: Palin 'allowed us to peak'
The Politico ^ | December 3, 2008 | Andy Barr

Posted on 12/03/2008 3:10:02 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Fresh off his runoff victory Tuesday night, Georgia Republican Sen. Saxby Chambliss credited Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin with firing up his base.

“I can't overstate the impact she had down here,” Chambliss said during an interview Wednesday morning on Fox News.

“When she walks in a room, folks just explode,” he added. “And they really did pack the house everywhere we went. She's a dynamic lady, a great administrator, and I think she's got a great future in the Republican Party.”

Chambliss said that after watching her campaign on his behalf at several events Monday, he does not see her star status diminishing within the party.

The Republican also thanked John McCain and the other big name Republicans that came to Georgia, but said Palin made the biggest impact.

“Our next president, folks.”

Until he’s innaugurated, Obama is the next president.

I don’t think our next President is known by name yet. Could end up being Nancy Pelosi. On account of the birth certificate issue.

Hey - he's declared himself President of the Office of President-Elect. Who needs that pesky swearing-in thingy!

Oh come on! Do we have to ruin this thread with that too! I am all with you on that, BUT lets just bask in the glory that we ruined the democraps fillibuster proof majority and enjoy the fact that at least Saxby recognizes the fact that Sarah Palin is an ASSET to the REPUBLICANS!!!!!!

(Ooooooh..... Maybe Saxby is looking for a VP spot......hmmmmmmmmm something to think about!!!!)

He may be your Fuhrer, not mine. He'll get the same respect given to President Bush by lefties and the lamestream media. Comprende

This sounds a lot more authentic and accurate than the crap the McCain campaign and McCain handed back to Palin after the election.

Fillibuster proof on paper only.

I don't expect the Pubbies to hold the line.....

We've too many RINOS in Washington....to expect them to do the "right" thing.
