1. I've got to say this
Bush had much better TV surrogates in 2004 than this guy.

4. It's not a guy, as far as I know, it's a woman.

2. Well, I think he did okay, but I'd love to see David Wade given a go at this sort of thing. nt

15. She looks an awful lot like Dana Perino
She talks fast like Dana also.
A lot of older voters might think she is Dana.
Dana = WH = Listen to authority

I don't think that these spokespeople are chosen randomly at all.
It's insidious.

23. No, not chosen randomly.
They're blond and blue-eyed, like all the chosen in the Master Race. Just the way der Fuhrer likes 'em. :puke:

26. I think she's kind of hot.
Edited on Sun Sep-07-08 10:26 PM by GaYellowDawg
Strictly looks-wise. Can't help who I find physically attractive (although her voice is awful). But then again, I think mercury is pretty, and that'll poison the shit out of you.

7. After 3 minutes of her lies and Orwellian spin, I got sick to my stomach

:puke:

She's on message, she's smirky - and she's a liar. Points to McCain, on image.

20. Do you really think the Troopergate investigation is going to expose Palin?
I don't - McCain has sent his intimidation crew to Alaska to make sure that whole thing dies.

9. OMG. That woman has to be a robot, totally programmed
with Reich Wing talking points. What a tool!

Gibbs did great with her, especially at the end.

12. Agree
Edited on Sun Sep-07-08 01:38 PM by ultraist
And, she has a habit of interupting, talking over her opponent, as if that makes her point stronger. Typical Republican tactic, who can shout the loudest?

Interesting how the Republicans put forward attractive women as their spokespeople as if that means their campaign is up to speed on women's rights and forward looking. I guess they think a little "sex appeal" will energize their campaign. Like their "hottest Governor from coolest state" button. How sexist.

Yet another ploy. We know where the McCain camp really stands on women's issues---decades back in history.

10. Damn what a liar she is.
Why is it that Republicans feel the need to lie all the time??? (Ya, I know the answer).

I really really think Dems should hit them for being liars. I have heard McCain answer a question in an interview (about his wife and his age, I think) in which he rather proudly said, "I lied", and then he laughed. HE LAUGHED ABOUT BEING A LIAR !!

11. Good answers, but I don't think they have to limit the hypocrite status on pork to Palin

What struck me is that McCain has always said he NEVER went after ANY pork, but it has been verified that isn't true.

http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/529/

I think I am starting to see the appearance of 18 million itsy, bitsy, teeny, tiny little cracks in this Republican facade that they are going to be able to reform their own 8 years of ruining this country from record surplus, great quality of life, business booming and other products of a Democratic-led administration. Hopefully the McCain Biden ticket can give their glass facade a swift kick and drop it like a shattered windshield. The fact that Palin is now getting folks to fight testimony, and there are going to be subpoenas is only raising the ante on this criminal matter of abuse of power of the governor's office of Alaska.

The more they stand in the way, the more they look like the mafia. Keep it up McCain - the Sopranos you ain't, but you're doing a great job of heading that direction.

16. Oh boy that was good.
Just from body language one could see that Nancy was squirming in that cosmetically altered covering of hers while Robert was nicely composed throughout. I hope many people saw this exchange.

18. Wouldn't say 'shredded'...
... but that woman had a total shit-eating grin on her face. Notice how she said everything was false, but offered up no reasons for why?

21. can looks win the Election
I was just told ,by Friend of mine that he changes his vote because the women (palin) is beautiful. Should we be afraid. I don't like this. Then he said there is more men voting then women. talking about being mis informed.

24. I didn't know Gibbs had it in him
Glad he was stressing that ethics investigation. Obama should layer that into his stump appearances as part of a "they won't change a damned thing about Washington" riff.

25. Why could he not point out that McCain voted with Bush 90% of the time and just keep hammering it?
Would've been more effective.

27. Not to be shallow or anything, but she's had almost as much
...plastic surgery as Liddy Dole.

Yikes.
