Every time Palin moves her lips, she pisses off another group of voters...
Keep talking Sarah, you're doin' a heckuva job!

Pitbull Owners Blast Palin

"Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, who famously compared herself to a pitbull in her vice-presidential acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention, appears to have antagonized a key voting bloc in the upcoming election, the nation's pitbull owners.

While Gov. Palin's assertion that the only difference between a hockey mom and a pitbull was "lipstick" drew a loud ovation from the Republican faithful in St. Paul, it raised the ire of the Pitbull Anti-Defamation League, a powerful association of pitbull fanciers who monitor the portrayal of pitbulls in the media.

<snip>

Ms. Foyler said that for pitbull owners who have grown weary of their prized dogs being defamed and mistreated, Gov. Palin's wisecrack was the last straw: "We're all like, first the Michael Vick thing, and now this."

Tracy Klugian, an irate pitbull owner from Buffalo, New York, echoed Ms. Foyler's sentiments: "I can think of many differences between pitbulls and Gov. Palin - for starters, pitbulls don't try to get their ex-brothers-in-law fired."

4. The Bush-Cheney-McCain-Palin show is worse than anything in the Onion
Everything you read in the Onion is lame compared to our current political reality.

5. She's a perky motivational speaker.. that's all she is.
She knows how to punch it up, to get people to "guy" her message.. She's a sales-pitch person.. She;s trying to bait & switch, and for some it may work (wink wink...he's OLD, vote for him and you'll get meeeeeeeeee)
