Oh, Yes!Yes! Palin and Newt, dream team IMHO
Josey Wales added to list.
This is an ongoing list of historical, popular, and Biblical people, as well as fictional characters and animals that Sarah Palin has been compared to on FR:
I can’t for the life of me understand why so many on FR seem to think the best way to combat liberal BS is by burying our heads in the sand.
She took the fight to them. She did well; it was a good call.
Some of those are cool, but I take offense to Muhammad Ali: he was an arrogant piece of garbage who hated America.
Whom....Perhaps NBC?
Considering the bad press over their audio tape altering of Zimmerman 911 call on "Today Show" for their ham-handed editing, photo choice etc ....all now Under Internal investigation.
They Need her for ratings in these "damage control" times, she does not need them. Probably why everyone pretty much on their best behavior, but not perfectly so [need one heavy] not to raise question...whassup with the Palin love fest??
NBC announcements: Meredith Viera will return to the Today Show for the 2weeks in OG London to host the morning portion along with Lauer.
C’mon Miss Marmelstein, it isn’t that. New Yorkers aren’t the touchy-feely type(subway gropers excluded). You know New Yorkers show politeness buy rushing so the new Yorker behind them can rush to where ever it is they’re rushing to!
Romney cheerleaders. We’re so screwed.
I watched up to the Tori Spelling segment. I thought she handled herself well, but I will tell you who else impressed me, and that was Dr. Nancy Snyderman. Since I don’t watch the Today show, I have no knowledge on the doctor, but she included Sarah with eye contact, turning her head in Sarah’s direction to engage her or to listen to her answers and just generally being gracious and classy. Star Jones looked like she had an attitude the whole time...I know, quite a departure from her usual demeanor.
Those are all serious comparisons by other FReepers. I made none of them up. :)
It is a logical continuation of the branding, but, NBC! When will we see "Sarah and the Rev" - the new reality sitcom starring Palin and Sharpton?
I thought that we were fighting for our national life and that Palin was leading the charge. How does the Palin - Spelling thing contribute?
I do have to admit though that it (the Palin - Spelling match-up - two reality TV "stars") was probably a good fit.
Does anyone know how the perky one did opposite Sarah?
From the clips I watched, it looked pretty good. My only disappointment with her was that she is taking up the “anyone but Obama” mantra. Romney does not deserve conservative support, even passive support. However, Sarah is a politician and she will burn her bridges to not back Romney IF he sews it up. You could tell she wasn’t too happy with having to accept Romney, but she tired hard to put on the game face.
Folks, we cannot win an election based purely upon “anybody but Obama” mentality. I for one cannot ever even passively support Romney because he does not represent even minimal standards in what I expect in a candidate.
Merely voting “against Obama” instead of “for someone” is a recipe for a loss. Plus, it would be better to lose with a conservative running.....at least we have something to be for instead of merely against.
I like both Newt and Santorum. I understand many on this forum loath Santorum (I suspect it is mainly because he is a true social conservative), but at this phase if folks would support him then we can keep Romney for winning on a first ballot. The convention will be open and “possibly” a conservative could emerge. As it is now, we will be stuck with Romney. Not even coming up to minimal standards of acceptability, IMO. Hence, apathy and no turn out in the general election with a sure fire Obama victory. And as I have stated before, I’m not sure Romney would be any better than Obama.
I haven’t heard anything on the great Couric/Palin ratings duel!!
I have to laugh! I wrote up my description of Sarah’s great performance on the Today Show (with a mild poke at my fellow NYers) and, as always, a near-orgy of hate descends on NYC from freepers. NEVER FAILS.
By going with NBC her light burned brighter by comparison and possibly destroyed Al Sharpton, Chris Matthews, and Keith Olbermann.
We are going to blame all of them on you so as to avoid any blow back. LOL
Now LOL with maniacal glee.
Meanwhile, over at ABC, Perky Katie Couric is sub-hosting for Robin Roberts this week.
The past 2 days have been an endless parade of ‘How much do we love Katie Couric?’ segments.
It has barf alert written all over all of it.
I only get ABC & CBS. I guess I am NOT watching ABC for the near future.
True, she has her detractors.
Appearing on Today was an excellent move, especially because her grilling by Lauer in the first hour was so effectively parried.
It doesn’t hurt her to be out and showing herself. She carries herself extraordinarily well
