I have to ask this - Has anyone noticed a certain "accentuation" factor going on with Palin/McCain?

Over the past few weeks I've noticed a sort of bizarre change in the McCain campaign when it comes to the use of women, images and presentation.

Is anyone else noticing this?

I mean, go back and look at the earliest images and video of Palin, especially her clothing, and compare it to the current campaign. Last night on SNL it was really noticeable.

She has clearly went from clothes that do not accentuate her physique to clothes that do. Also, I've noticed where at several McCain/Palin rallies, they are having all sorts of women standing right next to them and the attributes of these women have been quite obvious.

I know this sounds sexist, but it seems to me that the McCain campaign is using sexuality in a very subconscious way.

And I don't think it is so very "subconscious".

But Barack can't help how handsome he is, that's just how the good Lord made him...

His overall excessive hotness? SO not his fault!

What did Will Smith say? "I make this look GOOD!"

... yeah ... that frigid Alaskan librarian has NOTHING on these women....

Palin is pathetic in comparison to Michelle or Jill.

on..ahem..."attributes." I think that while other factions of McCain's campaign may believe Palin has value where fundies are concerned, McCain can probably only see her value to a penis. Just my opinon.

...the favor of pointing out her inappropriate and suggestive choices in clothing and makeup.

:evilgrin:

thanks for the chuckle of the day...

as sexist for noticing this. Which to me is odd because I feel them using gender in this way is much, much more sexist than me noticing the endowment of the women being used in the McCain campaign. Especially, since I've seemed to have noticed that it is pretty blatant and hard not to notice.

on a VP? Hush my mouth

Snug skirts, too.

Stand her next to Clinton, Boxer, Sebelius, Pelosi, and just about every other woman of power and heft in Congress. I think you'd see a striking difference.

wouldn't one be concerned with getting too close to the edge of the stage and have people start chanting - "I see Paris, I see France, I see someone's underpants".

In all seriousness, it seems so much more practical to wear slacks.

The tight tight skirts, panty line visible, 5 inch spike heels, knee high boots, the winking, the phony accent. They are marketing her as the sexy little waitress in the rural roadhouse bar. It's all been sex. She has nothing else.

The next thing you know she's be standing up there in the "weathergirl's stance". . you know.. shoulders & elbows back...

to vote for them? i don't know. That almost seems like they'd be shooting themselves in the foot as most women will not go for that.

is this really how they want the potential Leader of the Free World® to look? Probably not.

The THINKING everyday guy, maybe not BUT some would love Palin as Prez and thee women (if they were American) as her cabinet

you can never have too many buttcheeks in your face. :eyes:

Probably because I can't stomach watching either McCain or Palin long enough to notice. Sex sells, but this isn't a cologne or car adverstisement...this is real life, this is our future and the future of generations to come.

Vote with your penis and they'll be holding you by your gonads for the next 4 years!


Obama-Biden
:patriot:

Will McCrazy allow more front and center live shots of Megan in the next two weeks?

I wanted to post something I've been noticing about Megan McCain's (ahem!) physique that I've been seeing "developing".......are we on the same page??? Do you even understand what I'm implying??

It's become an unwritten rule that we lay off the candidate's kids on DU, which I totally agree with, hence why I haven't posted my suspicions.....

You are absolutely correct. She started off in dark, drab outfits that were not as form fitting- lately it's all white and red and tight.

it is about how the great majority of crowds are men and how they salivate over her body during rallies.

it made me throw up a little bit.

and yeah, you are right, even though the weather is getting cooler, the jacket has been 86ed for snug, tailored shirts.

These retired guys who are part of a bipartisan social group my husband associates with passed around a photoshopped pic of McCain with a nude Palin. We Dems joked with them about how that is typical for Repubs to encourage people to vote based on another part of anatomy besides their brains! I know several guys who always said about Hillary that they could never vote for a woman and that a woman should never be Pres, but they are slobbering over Palin. I predicted from her choice that she was picked to provide sex appeal, sorely lacking with McCain.

she's unsheathing her "War Chest" as the campaign wears on .. :)

What a BOOB this moron is.

I heard them this morning talking about men liking Palin and the female anchor said, gee, I wonder why men like Governor Palin.

She's not a person to them -- she's a good girl who does as she is told by her "daddy" (Todd.the church.the party).

She lets them USE her like a piece of meat.

this is why women all across America were HORRIFIED and DISMAYED by her.

She is Patriarchal Barbie. The ultimate sell out of women. Being sold as a "feminist". but now, today, McCain has come clean when he announced Palin isn't like those "liberal feminists".

John, we already know that. You're the one who is confused.

I called her Patriarchal Barbie from day one.

Sadly, it didn't stick.

Every time I see her, I can't get over the image of her down on her knees, like a slave and then being propped up to shame those women who choose to be a real woman. She is being used to tell us of course you can have 5 children and be President and shoot a moose and come home and cook it. It's all an illusion, and not a very new one.

Thanks, but no thanks, to that Barbie on her Knees to big daddy, the Republican Patriarch, who still thinks he's entitled to own slaves, be they minorities of any kind.

Remember how she used to always angle sideways so you could see 'em in profile?
