Palin Round Up
September 4, 2008 7:23 pm RepublicansA round of Palin stories that I can’t figure where else to put.
The numbers are in from last night’s speech. Palin’s speech drew: 37.2 million, or 1.1 million less than Obama’s even though her speech was carried on 6 networks while Obama’s was carried on 10. (Hat Tip: Colussus of Rhodey.)
Ted Nugent comes out for McCain/Palin. (Hat Tip: Don Surber.)
Let me correct the record now. Sarah Palin does not have an 80% approval rating. It’s 81.6%. (Hat Tip: Club for Growth.)
Scrapple Face parody: Obama proposes funding foreign policy training for girls.
DFO on the term “Trailer Trash” which has been used by classy HBO commenters.
Local reaction to the Palin Speech:
Clayton Cramer: “This is one of the world-changing political speeches of our generation. She is a powerful, but very natural speaker. Obama has just lost. Palin will be extraordinarily qualified to run for President in 2012.”
Kevin Richert: “Palin is still going to have to make the case that she has the command of the issues that come with the vice presidency. I didn’t hear that Wednesday night, and wouldn’t have been realistic to expect it. This speech was Palin’s chance to present herself to America and fire up the faithful, and she aced it on both counts.”
Wow, in less than 3 days, Richert has poked fun at Obama’s over the top rhetoric and now preparing a glowing review of Sarah Palin’s speech. Is there an invasion of the body snatchers that’s beginning their work at the Idaho Statesman?
I don’t know, I guess it may be spreading. This afternoon, I gave my first donation to the McCain-Palin compliance fund. Six days a go, I would have rated that with pigs flying, along with the McCain-Palin bumper sticker.
No surprise here. This ’tis the bumper sticker for conservatives. It’s available on McCain Store for $1 plus $3 shipping.
