Palin may have said she wouldn''t answer the questions, but it wasn''t until well after she stopped answering them. She may have kept it together although I distinctly saw the "moose in the headlights" look more than a few times. But honestly, conversant? With her "g" dropping, Joe six pack, "you betcha, honey", bull ***, you call that conversant? Maybe in the back end of a truck. In real life it''s simply poor English, not conversant by any stretch of the imagination.

What is wrong with everyone?

Hello! The emperor is wearing no clothes! Sarah Palin is a dummy! She didn''t win anything.

Hey pundits! Stop over-analyzing! It looks like most Americans have just figured it out without the blah blah blah.

We don''t need the false constructed "balance". It''s OK to just report the truth as is. Try it, you''ll feel better. Just say that Sarah Palin helps calm the far right fundamentalists that didn''t like McCain, but everyone else understands that she is not very bright. By picking her, McCain displayed desperation. It probably won''t work. You don''t have to blather on any further. There is other important news to cover.

Wow. That''s a broad absolute statement, yea?

Let me clue you in, since you''re a bit sluggish in the ol''noggin yourself.

I''m a progressive.

uhbama voted for the retro-FISA immunity bill. The same one that gave the shrub coverage.

uhbama voted for *** cheney''s energy bill. McCain and Hillary did not.

uhbama voted for the bridge to nowhere. So did Biden. Three times.

uhbama wouldn''t have his picture taken with Gavin Newsome after he announced gay marriage in San Fran. uhbama toured with donnie mcclurkin; the hypocrite "ex-gay" pastor; strongly anti-gay. Nice message, huh? uhbama hasn''t met even once with the gay democratic group.

uhbama says he''s for "open drilling".

Is uhbama a democrat or a republican?

McCain crossed the isle 25% of the time; uhbama, 3%.

Which one will is good at "uniting" people for change?

uhbama can''t even unite his own d*mn political party.

uhbama USED RACE AS A DIVISIVE TOOL TO GAIN VOTES AND SLAM THE ONLY 2 term DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENT and his wife in 40 years.

NOBAMA! PUMA!!!!
And yea, I voted for McCain/Palin in Ohio on Tuesday.

It felt GOOOOD.

It bugs me that, like Bush, Palin can''t pronounce "nuclear." Is that a Republican thing?

That was all the GOP could ask for? They couldn''t ask for someone who actually could answer the questions? They couldn''t ask for someone who could speak knowledgably on more that memorized talking points? That is all they could ask for? I think you mean, that this is all they could ask for since they were stupid enough to put Palin on the ticket. You get what you pay for.

For those of you that keep saying she didn''t answer all the questions. Lets look at something first she stated up front she was not going to answer the questions the way that the press wanted her too. Thats good shows she will not bow down to them. Next and the biggest thing, she came a lot closer to answering the questions than Obama ever has about his assocciations with shady charters. He keeps saying not the person I knew, give me and America a break. They are exactly the people he knew but he is being allowed to get away with this. So those complaining about Palin, when he answers these questions then you have a right, until then hope that he is not forced to if he is it is good bye to the ''CHOSEN ONE'' Obama.

I think Sarah Palin did a powerful job in the debate. She is knowledgeable, articulate and direct.

-----------


She didn''t answer half of the questions directed at her. hahahahaha


...but then again, you like people like that, don''t you.

Here is a question for you? Do we REALLY want another vice president put in charge of energy policy who has a vested interest in oil/gas prices increasing? All of Palins friends are in Alaska and they get direct payments from Alaska that increase when the price of oil increases.

That sounds like what we had in 2000 with *** Cheney being put in charge of energy policy at a time gas was at $1.50/gallon. All of his buddies are benefiting today with gas at $4/gal. With four years and Palin in charge will we be looking at $10/gal gas?

Have you seen anything that would you cause you to doubt that she would put country ahead of her friends in Alaska?
