Potential “First Dude” Todd Palin Speaks at Cindy McCain Tribute

Sarah is a poor excuse for a VP. She gave a speech written for someone else and then changed a little for her. She is a puppet for the Republican party. She did not focus on one issue that matters to American’s.

Hasselbeck added, “You better get your game face on because America fell in love with your wife last night.”
I didn’t.

I was suprised and very pleased with Sarah Palin last night. She puts Barack and Obama in a very pale light. She has the smarts, talent and experience to do the job.
McCain/Palin will win. I was a Hillary supporter before but never for the real socialist.

Remember the “Just words?” speech? That was plagerized by Deval Patrick, another black protege by Deval Patrick who ran on change.
He’s now the Governor of Massachusetts with a dismal approval rating.
I’ll be he dreams of 80% approval like Governor Palin.
:)

All of a sudden, in a heartbeat, focus is on the Republicans. Sarah Palin sucked the wind right out of the Democratic sails.
Suddenly, Michelle Obama has been shoved to the back of the stage and this “breath of fresh air” has taken the spotlight.
Democrats – there isn’t an image consultant or makeover artist that can put Michelle together and have her outshine this very real, very charming young woman. I would be proud to have her as my daughter. Michelle ? not so much.
Obama and Biden are a stuffy, boring pair and they hoped Michelle would breath some life into their campaign. Game over, they would be wasting their time.

As a Hillary supporter, I think she hit a home run.
Both my husband and I are now McCain-o-crats.

How dare Palin claim her time as mayor was more important than community organizers like Habitat for Humanity.

Does the phrase “First Dude” make anyone else shudder?

Yawn, You missed the point. Obama and Biden are so boring, they are grasping at straws to try to spice up their ticket.
DO YOU GET IT NOW – PAY ATTENTION DUDE

This line “We met in high school, and two decades and five children later he’s still my guy.” was incredibly hokey, yet I could see my wife saying it (change some details), so it worked for me. A lot of her speech was like that – it very easily have been cheesy and annoying, but she delivered it just right so it wasn’t. Overall, I think she did a great job of introducing herself to the 37 million Americans watching, but going forward she needs to cut back on the folksiness, and adopt a move professional tone – not like a professional politician, but like a competent business person.

Watching Democrats panic is fun!

Wow. Guess you guys don’t like Sarah? Well, reap the whirlwind you bunch of cry babies!

As opposed to the one you have been waiting for tearing apart our sitting President and John McCain?
DNC Convention -angry pessimistic speakers
GOP – upbeat positive speakers

Awesome! A real guy in the first wives’ club! This is great! Real working guy totally supportive of his awesome wife.
I love the Palins!
I am for the first timem excited about the candidates – gave money when Sarah Palin was announced for veep – giving more today. And I’m a life-long Democrat.
ROCK ON. Excellent.

Yawn, Monkey ??? I assume you are backing Curious George

I was a bit ambivalent about McCain’s VP pick before last night’s speech. I thought Sarah Palin’d better deliver or I’d have to start questioning McCain’s judgment. Guess what? She did deliver. OMG, I was so impressed and amazed. Despite the short time she had to prepare for this speech to be delivered in front of million viewers, she showed great composure and grace. She came across as a tough fighter and sincere human being. I could totally relate to her. She is a middle-class American, just like me. She has to juggle her career and family, just like me. She’s loyal to her family. In today’s high divorce ratio world, how many of us could claim that we’ve been with the same guy for 2 decades? I especially like that about her. She has strong family value, and I can see she loves her country, and will do whatever it takes to serve this country in the best interest of the people. It’s great that she’s not a career politician, but her track record has proven that she gets things done. I’d be proud to have her as my VP.

So, what does a Community Organizer do?
I think he’s the guy who tapes those community yard sale signs on telephone poles.

I love it.The Dem’s asked for it when they belittled her experience.Obama doesn’t have a clue what real Americans think or feel.When he is constantly telling me how bad my country is and only he can make it good again?Give me a break the citizens of this great country are the ones who make this country great.You want proof he is all talk?He can’t help his own brother double his yearly income(only 24 dollars)what makes you think he will help you. Can you say washed up BLOWHARD?

Sarahcuda stepped up to the plate last night as the most lied-about, slandered, and vilified person in America.
With 37 million people watching, she calmly smacked pitch after pitch over the wall and out of the park.
The pressure the Democrats, the MSM, and the hatemongers (but I repeat myself) placed on her was incredible. And that pressure produced a diamond.
Sarah Palin’s tears cure cancer. Too bad she has never cried. Ever. (hat tip to Frank J.)

Wow the nervous bots are out in force! Fear does a funny thing….McCain does’t know fear too much, with his life story. I’d much rather have Todd than the angry Michelle anywhere near the WH. Leave the guy alone….he is a supportive spouse and hands on father.
You slime Obot cult are really sickening.
HILLARY SUPPORTER FOR McCAIN/PALIN

Speaking of crying….if Gov. Palin ever sheds a tear she will be villified. When Biden cried with tissues in hand 2 days after his announcement in front of press, there was barely any mention of it. SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN CRUCIFIED. Fine double standard….I think she is great and just what the Maverick ordered.

Yawn
You are such an idiot, Sarah was brilliant. Makes Hillary look like an old made. Obamanation also looks a little bit stupid right now. The One thought he was the only one that could speak. No so fast batman. she can govern too.
ROTFLMFAO

Actually, Michelle Obama looks like Aunt Esther from Sanford & Son. And sounds like Reverend Wright.
The Community Organizer looks like Urkel and sounds like whatever he’s told to sound like.

Donna, I’m shocked
James Brown in drag! That’s just not fair. JB is cool. I demand you retract the insult.
The libs will never understand what hit them, even after this woman keeps them out of the White House for the next twelve years they’ll still be blaming the STUPID electorate. How did they ever get named the Democrats when they obviously despise democracy and the people who serially refuse to vote for them.
It’s all just too too funny, in a kind of styrofoam pillared Greek tragedy way.

nervous Obamabots! I love it!
Bucky is toast! not white, wheat or rye.
BURNT TOAST!
bwahhhhaaaaaaaa!

I find it amusing that the Dems posting here generally attack the Republican ticket for their content/message, not the Republican posters here.
The Republicans posting here on the board attack the Dems posting here for their opinions about the Republican ticket.
I also noticed the Republicans seem to be throwing out names, racial inuendo and insinuation and general name calling towards the Dems here and the presidential ticket.
That certainly speaks volumes about Republicans here and how they really feel about their candidates.
Typical Republican hatred played down here in the microcosm. How sad and shameful. No moral fiber or content.

So funny to hear all the bile spewn at Palin. Obama and Biden are far from the smartest guys in the room, but let’s grant that they are for a moment.
Being a PhD from Princeton doesn’t qualify you to lead men into battle, be CEO of a Fortune 500 company or be successful. Some of our most effective leaders have not been members of MENSA or had graduate degrees from Ivy League schoools.
Joe Biden was brought in to be the grown up on the ticket and still can’t seem to figure out the difference between a battalion and a brigade and has been wrong on most of the major issues facing this nation over the nearly 4 decades he’s spent in Washington. Obama refused McCain’s offer to speak in a dozen town hall meetings. One surmises that Mr Obama is not as comfortable speaking extemporaneously.
I’ve noticed a great deal of animous and disdain for Palin which has struck me and others as masking for a broader disdain for rural, working class Americans.
Biden and Obama like to tout their “humble roots” as a way of connecting with the every-day-man, but the noble savages are only noble when they support their team.
My family largely comprises the demographic of who these political types are attempting to reach.
It is refreshing to hear someone who looks and sounds like us versus the typical politician.
I can’t over state the degree to which many of our acquaintances and friends are reacting to the effort to denegrate a woman from a small town, working class family.
It is hard to take shots about her and her so-called simpleton life without fragging the rest of us who comprise this demographic.
Hate to break it to the sophisticates in the audience but there is nothing intrinsically superior to being from either coast or a large city.
Most of the people I grew up were from hardscrabble families who have a strong work ethic, pay their bills and have a pretty strong sense of right and wrong. In short, these folks are the backbone of the country and are not so unsophisticated to know when they are being lampooned by the media or others.
I’m an Army vet and a member of the local VFW and vote and I won’t be voting alone. Keep denegrating working class rural types at your political peril.

One last point. It DOES matter that Obama decided to be friends with a leader of an organization that plotted the mass murder service men at a Ft Dix NCO dance.
Had the terrorist bombers not prematurely detonated the nail bomb, one can only imagine how many people they would have murdered.
When Bill Ayers says he “wishes he had done more”, the “more” to which he refers can reasonably be surmised to mean more bombing and more murders.
His terrorist activities would disqualify from being a friend of anyone I served and probably anyone I know. Claiming it happened long ago doesn’t give Obama a pass because Ayers has never apologized or disassociated himself from his past, in fact he has embraced it.
It is almost like befriending a serial killer who murdered years ago but has a charming disposition. Sorry, the dirt doesn’t fall far from the bag.

Palin is new to the national spotlight because the stupid media ignores republican governors. Why do we hear about New Mexico’s governor? Why do we know about Virginia’s governor? Why do we know about Montana’s governor? Because they are liberals and the media CHOOSES to cover them. It the media is so inept it doesn’t cover the largest state in the union, then it says how cocooned and in the tank they really are.

QUOTE FROM SOMEONE TRYING TO POST AS ME:
“Sorry,
I was trying to convince the readers here that I was several “informed” women voters and trying to play it off like I/we were actually open minded Democratic leaning voters until Sarah spoke last night.
Sarah just makes me hotter than a June bug in July and I couldn’t help myself,
Billy”
Billy, I don’t know who you are, but I beg your pardon with your ridicule of me personally. I spoke as a voter. I don’t know Donna, or whoever else you presumed to think was someone trying to post as someone else. YOU apparently have no life and are super paranoid.
I was merely posting my reaction as a voter after I saw the speech last night. I am a Thai woman who came to the US twenty years ago, and became a US citizen 8 years ago. I had no idea what republican or democrat was when I first got here. But after learning about the two parties, I chose to be a republican. I don’t believe in handouts. I believe in working hard to earn a living. I am a middle class American and despite the fact I was not born in the US, I am proud of this country I have chosen to call home. Those of you who aren’t proud and take this country for granted should be ashamed of yourself. I have never been a democrat, so you can count me out, but I cheer for those who used to support Hilary and are now voting McCain/Palin. You go guys and girls!
Oh and just one more thing Billy or whoever you are, you can follow your cult leader to wherever that may be. You are an annoying insect to me. Gross.

dl said,” …why can’t she answer a single question?
maybe cause she doesn’t know the answers as we have already seen
ugh.”
Oh, let’s see… She has been a nominee for less that a week and has been focused on her presentation to the party. There is ample time now for questions and answers, and they will be coming. Seriously, have you ever watched a convention before?

So, Enviro, its ok for Biden to be an attack dog, but not little Sarah? All Biden and the left have done for 8 years is tear into Bush. You guys don’t like it coming back at you. You people on the left continue to show your bias, hate, ignorance, and stupidity.

Mad Puppy, it’s no surprise to me at all since the democrats are hypocrites and have double standards. They can do it but if republicans do the same, they cry foul. They really don’t have any stand for anything and go where the wind blows. Very sad.

by the way, I usually don’t post on blogs but Palin’s speech excited me so much I had to read if others are sharing my excitement. I’m glad to see that I’m not alone. Woohoo! I think McCain is an honorable guy, no doubt about it, but it was a little tough to get excited about him even though I know he’s the right choice. I’m glad he picked Palin. I’ve never been this excited about candidates before.

Goodness, I am actually getting wet just thinking about her, about us, OH MY!

You can tell how good of a choice Sarah is by the impact on the libs and their media wing.
They are going CRAZY.
The hate, downright lies along with their hypocracy is fantastic and I believe most clear thinking Americans will shun this abhorant behavior.
Kudos to John McCain for his choice.

Same here KG…I’m laughing all the way to the voting booth! :-) God they are just gonna implode after November.
I can’t wait.

OBAMABOTS!….that’s a good one! LOL
I agree! I have NEVER been this excited about politics before!
FINALLY! TWO patriots that have common sense, business sense, family values, guts and grit!
McCAIN/PALIN 2008
USA!
USA!
USA!
Has anyone EVER heard the Obama’s chant USA?
Didn’t think so.

Cheri, please exit this message board. You are sick and disgusting and making a fool of yourself.

it’s great to see Obamabots and CNN talking heads in such a frenzy and twisting in the wind after Palin’s speech.
A star was born, Obama is yesterday’s news!
Hey, maybe Bucky can take Obama girl back to the hood in Chicago!

Sarah Palin could have used her spotlight to do so much more. She could have shown everyone why she was the best candidate for the job; instead she tore down the job that community organizers do, and I might add she use to be on a community organization -the PTA. She could have explained what she really brings to the table instead she took a swipe at Michelle Obama. Over and over again we have heard the “Good ole boys”, mantra so nothing new there. At one point I thought she was going to start in with McCain, McCain he’s our man…..Yeah, Sarah but can you?

Palin did nothing but trash another person for no reason.has Obama done that other than say McSame is te same old same old no He never attacked McCshaes love of country but McShame has put politics over country to win this election so he has nothing to say. and Palin is no better than any othe politician .She is not change if you read a letter fro the small town of Wallasa you would see how vicious andbackbiting she is. We do not need this kind of think in our government we need change from the bottom up not from the top down if at all

Sarah is my Mrs. America. She’s my ideal to steal Washington. You go girl!

I for one loved the speech, having voted for Palin TWICE(primary and general election in Alaska) I could not have been more proud of someone who is truly like me, AN ALASKAN who can hunt, fish and probably owns a blue trap and a roll of Duct tape. She can relate to middle america, we all need someone who has no ties to Washington, and will not bow to pressure when she does get there.
I will be proud to vote McCain/Palin in November.

McCain and Palin: Typical Republicans. Drown in their own personal gains via politics. The only way they know how to campaign is by blaming and making people afraid of those who won’t agree with them. Yet, I still haven’t heard anything productive from their mouths. If you’ve got no plan, just shut the heck up. We are so tired of the same old politicians.

Ridiculous. If McCain is elected we will be the laughingstock of the world as his administration continues to squander our soldiers and our national treasure. If he dies in office we’ll have someone with a BA in Journalism who thinks global warming is a myth and that evolution is a conspiracy? Wow, that is scary. Yelling sexism doesn’t work on a world stage folks and as it’s apparent that she’s mentally challenged that’s all this person has. If not, let’s hear her talk about something besides her family and her guns. Right now I hear the dog barking, but that’s it. We don’t need another cowboy and his dog in office, we need a statesman and a capable vice president.

Nasty Sarah needs to get her baby-making b1tch a@@ back into the kitchen and make some pie.

Who thinks Todd Palin would survive Washington, DC?
This is an outdoorsman. A champion snowmobile racer. A hunter. A fisherman.
I can’t imagine him in D.C. attending receptions.
We know Cindy McCain fled from D.C. back to Arizona shortly after her husband’s first election. She hasn’t lived in D.C. since. Perhaps the “First Dude” would follow her example and stay in Alaska. At least most of the time.

i want to know how obama can pass a back ground check with all his highly questionable associations.
we already know he liked rezko a convicted felon we already know he was mentored by davis and ayers both domestic terrorists and committed to the destruction of america. we already know he has ties to saudi we alreadfy know hamas has supported him
with a resume such as this how could he pass a back ground check????

“she’s smart, charming, poised and honest.” – SO IS NATALIE PORTMAN, WHAT’S YOUR POINT?
“In today’s high divorce ratio world, how many of us could claim that we’ve been with the same guy for 2 decades?” – According to the National Center for Health Statistics, 33% of the married population – 2,230,000 – reaches their 25th year (consider also becoming a widow)
“He can’t help his own brother double his yearly income(only 24 dollars)” AND THAT BRINGS US TO FOREIGN AFFAIRS. THANKS! – What does Wikipedia say about Africa? hmmmm…
“If you’re a loyal Democrat, you’re going to look for any mistep the Republicans make and jump on it like it’s the end of the world. Folks on the Right do the same thing” OH you mean LIKE KARL ROVE DID? PRAISING PALIN FOR THE VERY THING HE SHUNNED TIM KAINE?
“You are such an idiot, Sarah was brilliant. Makes Hillary look like an old made” – I URGE YOU TO REFRAIN FROM BRINGING UP THE WORD ‘OLD’ BEING AS MCCAIN WOULD BE OUR OLDEST PRESIDENT. TO DATE.
“he [Obama] makes GWB look like Abe Lincoln” – I’M LEAVING THIS ONE ALONE.
“BEING A COMMUNITY ORGANIZER IS NOT A TRAINING GROUND FOR THE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT.” – being mayor of a city with 9,000.00 people is.
“How sad and shameful [of Republicans here]. No moral fiber or content.” – AND TO THINK ONLY FOUR YEARS AGO THEY WERE ALL ANTI-FLIP FLOPIN’
“Some of our most effective leaders have not been members of MENSA or had graduate degrees from Ivy League schoools” – MENSA IS ONLY 62 YEARS OLD… WE’VE ONLY HAD 10 OUT OF 43 PRESIDENTS SINCE THEN. I AGREE IF YOU SPEAK OF TRUMAN. BUT STILL, EVEN GWB (according to Aubrey Immelman of the Times) has an above average IQ at around 115 to 124.
“I’m an Army vet and a member of the local VFW and vote and I won’t be voting alone. Keep denegrating working class rural types at your political peril” DO YOU THINK IT’S TRUE THAT CINDY MCCAIN’S BANANA OUTFIT COST OVER 600,000????
“It is almost like befriending a serial killer who murdered years ago but has a charming disposition. Sorry, the dirt doesn’t fall far from the bag” – IF YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT GWB SENIOR BEING FRIENDS WITH KING FAHD, I THINK IT IS UNFAIR TO MAKE HIS SON, GWB, PAY FOR IT.
“…it’s no surprise to me at all since the democrats are hypocrites and have double standards. They can do it but if republicans do the same, they cry foul” – so, you’re saying republicans are being hypocrites and have double standards? THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THAAAAANK YOU!! FINALLY SOME REPENTANCE, GIVE THIS MAN A MEDAL!
“think McCain is an honorable guy, no doubt about it, but it was a little tough to get excited about him even though I know he’s the right choice” – EXCELLENT COMMENT!
“God they are just gonna implode after November.
I can’t wait.” – UM, WE’RE ALL AMERICAN HERE… OR YOU’RE SAYING IF MCCAIN WINS WE’RE SCREWED? IS THAT WHAT YOU’RE SAYING?
“Has anyone EVER heard the Obama’s chant USA?” – HOLD ON LET ME CHECK ON WIKIPEDIA…

Donna, that was great “James Brown in drag” I love it!!!
libs are a joke. Talk about “bitter Americans”

You got to read about Obama and ACORN.

Want an eye opener!!!

ABC News has turned into the Pravda vehicle for the Democratic party. This thread is populated by people who have lost their ability to think critically and have dined on Democratic talking points ad nauseam. Leave them alone. Let them drown in their own ignorance. As for me and my house – we’re voting McCain-Palin. And, by the way, I am African American.

Palin does not speak for me. She is crude and has no class. The Republican’s are shielding her from interviews because she is an idiot with a big mouth. She is declared off limits for anyone to sya anything negative about her because she is a woman…sorry…you chose politics, we didn’t choose you! You have kids taking care of your disabled child and a pregnant daughter on stage with a boyfriend who was flown in by the politacal party to be in photo shots. This kid had a myspace page talking about how he didn’t want to be married or have kids and next thing you know it’s pulled and h will be set up for life if he agrees to marry the girl and do what the party wants.Palin is going to be our worst nightmare if she gets in office. She is offensive and will cause wars and race riots by her mouth alone!!!!

Mrs. Obama described herself in her posed photo for Vanity Fair magazine as ‘Camelot with a Golden Tan’. How presumptious to even dream that she could even breathe the same air as Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy.
Mrs. Obamah is bow-legged and has a huge, fat ass! Fact is she is a huge fat ass with a perpetual frown. She always looks as if she’s ready to lunge!

Excuse me Carol but this is a political forum, I believe the Perez Hilton meeting is being held two doors down.

Funny how every presentation of Barack Obama shows him staying very far from true contact with the “little people” there to see him….bad reports of his unwilligness (or is it fear) to get close and personal with the troops there…maybe he has a phobia of germs?OCD? That or he’s above all these “little people” like you and me? And you gullible’s think he really gives a crap about you and your plight

I don’t think that Obama has what it takes to make a Great presidnt at all bur John McCain does . So I know whom I am going to vote for I feel that John Mcain is the man for the job anyhow he’s way better than bush anyhow

Then I would like to know what mr Mcain is planning doint about Dhs thos dang loosers and they think they have all the answers when they don’t have answer one no wonder I can
t stand dealing with Dhs
