The left tries to limit the experience and opportunity of the kind that Palin offers. The Dems are trying to limit choice in action and political thought and this won’t go over well with American women. Everyone has a conservative side and the choice to explore it should remain with the individual.

George W. Bush carried white women by an 11-point margin.

//////////////////

McCain/Palin will win white women by 77 point margin.

Somehow, every element of her life—the dual offense of being a beauty-queen and hunter; the Down syndrome baby who wasn’t aborted; the teenage daughter about to get married, whose baby also wasn’t aborted; the non-metrosexual husband working the nightshift; the very fact of five children—touched a nerve on the liberal template, and sent the whole beast into convulsions, opening an intriguing and somewhat frightening window onto the turbulent id of the left.

Wow! Good analysis.

Agreed. And some interesting turns of phrase, like "the very fact of five children--touched a nerve on the liberal template, and sent the whole beast into convulsions, opening an intriguing and somewhat frightening window onto the turbulent id of the left".

That is very solid analysis. The explannation of the Clinton incentive was excellent.

I had been a bit surprised by Bill Clinton predictions that Obama to win because of the economy. When I saw him do it a second time yesterday, it finally dawned on me what he was doing. He is predicting Obama will win or more importantly should win due to the economy. So that if Obama loses, it is Obama blew it even with the wind at his back.

You could be right. But if McCain-Palin go down in 2008, there will be no 2012!

I would have to disagree on one point of an ootherwise excellent article. Obama’s experience isn’t scarcely deeper than her’s; it doesn’t even scratch the surface.

Wow! Good analysis.

Indeed. I especially like the following:

Somehow, every element of her life--the dual offense of being a beauty-queen and hunter; the Down syndrome baby who wasn't aborted; the teenage daughter about to get married, whose baby also wasn't aborted; the non-metrosexual husband working the nightshift; the very fact of five children--touched a nerve on the liberal template, and sent the whole beast into convulsions, opening an intriguing and somewhat frightening window onto the turbulent id of the left.
The turbulent id of the left. That really sums it up.

Thats exactly what I'm afraid of!! I told a rat friend of mine the other day. that if Obama wins, we are in perilous times, because I don't think hes even qualified to be a county commissioner, especially not a senator, and definitely not POTUS!!!
