Sarah Palin has been sequestered with the Bush spin team, carefully secluded from the dangerous questions of the wicked, bad, inquisitive media. They are letting her out now on carefully-supervised appearances - oh, so well managed.
Almost. She did slip up on "Bush doctrine" showing that even a know-it-all might have a bit to learn. I'd love it if she started with evolution.
She delivered a well-written speech which played skilfully on the public's current economic fears and promising that overpaid CEOs would not be grossly overpaid if she and McCain were in power. Hmm. Not many votes to lose in that economic solution - especially for one who is desperately trying to play to the working and lower middle class demographic. The idea is that she is one of them, a Down Home hick who comes from the sorta stock who never needed an educayshun to run their hard-working little businesses. Funny thing that. I thought her dad was a teacher.
The Palins love to kill things in their spare time. They eat a lot of moose and caribou. She loves killing wild animals, wolves especially. She does it from the air.
We keep reading that she is "resonating" among American women - a sort of Annie Oakley thing.
But one reads that she and her snowmobile vroom-vroom husband make four-figure incomes and that she has been claiming per diems while living at home. Tsk tsk.
I've not heard these things on Fox but I have heard Fox starting to snipe at Palin. The gushing love affair, the fawning she-can-do-no-wrong policy has lapsed and, perchance, the Republicans are just a wee bitty worried about this loose cannon killer hockeymum and anxious about what stories are yet to come out about her.
Perchance she is as clean as the blood-drenched Alaskan snow.

Hilarious reading. So Sarah and her hubby make good money. Like Obama and his wife perhaps? If being well off is a criteria for non-acceptance by the latte left, then I have to conclude that Obama and Biden will not be receiving any more support from you, Samela. And at least Sarah is proud of her country, unlike Michelle Obama, who had never been proud of it until her hubby, the Obamessiah, ran for Prez. A little self centred, don't you think?
Hi Garry. If you want to compare candidates with fat wallets who play to the poor - I'd cite John Edwards among the Dems. Rich as Croesus from medical litigations but playing the poor mill-worker's boy. Obama has not been independently wealthy. He has worked his way up to a Senator's salary. Michelle is middle class and I am not sure how wealthy. I can't disagree with you about her, though. I think she is a bit scary.
I don't know why Michelle Obama is "scary." I am far more frightened that Sarah Palin would be "a breath away" from the Presidency. I'm comforted to know, however, that she "is proud of her country."
