CLEVELAND, MoSarah Palin did not disappoint.
The crowd cheered and applauded repeatedly during her speech here Friday night, from her opening remarks about mama grizzlies on the Missouri state flag to her promise to stop at the local Chick-fil-A for a midnight snack.
It was the first time Id ever seen Palin in person, and it was well worth the 19-mile drive from my suburban Kansas City home to The Berry Patch, a you-pick blueberry farm near Cleveland, Mo., population 665, in rural Cass County.
Not because Im a fan or even agree with her ideology, but to see what all the fuss has been about.
Palin was in the Kansas City area to campaign for Sarah Steelman, whos in a tight three-way race in Tuesdays Republican primary for Missouris U.S. Senate seat. The winner will face Sen. Claire McCaskill (D) in November.

Somehow, Palin has achieved celebrity status since the 2008 election. How many failed vice presidential candidates and former Alaska governors end up with book deals and reality TV shows? With an estimated net worth of $12 million?
When Palin took to the makeshift stage in the middle of a Missouri farm field, she was dressed more for the part of Hollywood celebrity than serious politician....

Glad to hear it. Yep, the comparisons are clear: Palin, a role model as a politician, mother, wife and even daughter. And the Dem femmes: politicians like Pelosi, mothers like Cher, wives like Roseanne Barr, daughters like Susan Sarandon. I wonder if Reese in her dark quiet moments can acknowledge the seething envy, that drives her hatred.
Bottom line it is quite obvious that Diana Reese wants what Sarah has but deep down inside Diana knows she will never have it.
And rightfully so. I just wish they would stay there, but they always manage to crawl back.

This is how real politicians dress.
I bet Diana has a closet full of Muumuus...

Thank you
Super shoes!
I would sure like it if I were in such good shape as Sarah Palin. But I gotta say, those shoes are awful! Lol
I couldn’t wear them. I would fall straight over.
You are very welcome.
That t-shirt is looking good too! But....her arms are looking mighty skinny....hope she eats a bit more.
She looks like a kid, doesn’t she? I hope I am half that lucky.
Just for you
What's she supposed to do? Come out, lift her prescription sunglasses off her nose and say "It is I. Palin"
OK. I'd laugh
Diana sounds like such a jealous hack. Thats why many liberal women hate Sarah Palin, because Sarah is beautiful, both inside and out, and liberal women are so disgusting looking, both in body and soulExactly right.
Combination LOL and triple super megabarf!
