Where's the intro video? That's the best part. It's not like something scandalous happened that would make that a bad-- oh...wait.
Bristol's bump is...quite visible.
"Hockey Moms 4 Sarah" - sign in audience.
I just saw my blue Canon!!
They showed the "Hockey Moms" sign...again.
Didn't know McCain's middle initial was "S". All righty, then.
Okay, I can't hold it in any longer...I must type...what I think...
Power Pearls.
Much better hairstyle than her Jennifer Aniston-clipped-updo-circa 1999 she was sporting earlier. Her highlights seem a lot more subtle. I think they did a great job with her look (and yes, I spend just as much time obsessing about lapels, ties and more, on men)
Ahhhhh. I feel better. :)
Sorry-- one last frivolous bit...Cindy...with the fluorescent green...WHY?
Trotted out active-duty eldest son for the layup. Classy.
She's waving at her kids. Why? And where's the third girl?
They're really pushing the "every-woman"-schtick.
"To the families...of special needs..." As someone with a special needs baby in my family, I say, SHAMELESS.
"This is America...every woman can walk through every door of opportunity..." especially if a campaign needs a token vag, to lure PUMAs.
THIRD shot of "Hockey Moms 4 Palin" sign. Heretofore to be referred to as "HM4P". I'm sick of typing it.
Littlest daughter licked her hand and is smoothing Baby Trig's hair. Okay, that kind of got to me.
"I guess a small town mayor is like a community organizer...except you have actual responsibilities!" BA DUM PUM!
"I might add that in small towns we don't quite know what to make of a candidate who lavishes praise on working people when they're listening and then talks about how bitterly they cling to their religion and guns, when those people aren't listening." <--- PLAY to those cheap seats!
Did she just say Scranton? Because of Biden? Whatever.
And how many minutes did it take before she insinuated that her inexperience makes her all the better to go to evil Washington, where those wicked insiders don't like her (and doesn't that prove she's awesome?)
Bridge to nowhere: for it, against it, whatever...it matters not, because she's a hockey mom! Those are like pit bulls, except with lipstick!
Are they already setting up Russia to be the next eeeevil bad guy? It's like my childhood, all over again! Alex P. Keaton...where are you?
"Take it from a gal, who knows the North slope of Alaska..." Yes, ANWR is the answer to EVERYTHING, SARAH!! Also..."gal"?
"The fact that drilling won't solve every problem is no excuse to do nothing at all." Um...actually...I think we're already fucked, and we best stop depending on the drillin', hon'.
American workers! (Anyone else have that South Park ep on the brain? "They're takin' arrr jobs!")
"This is a man who has authored two memoirs, but not even a major law or reform, not even in the state senate." Do you REALLY want to go down the inexperience road, Palin?
WHAT?! Obama is AGAINST victory?? COMMIE BASTARD!
Ah, a jab at the styrofoam columns from his Denver set...weak.
"after he's done turning back the waters and healing the planet"...well, Obama IS the messiah...
Panda: "I hate this bitch! I heard she wasn't going to go after Obama!"
Dear Panda, these are REPUBLICANS. Love, Anna
Ah, the "he wants to raise taxes"-refrain...this from the woman who increased the tax burden on her own captive Wassill...ians.
Okay, seriously? Cindy McCain? BURN THAT FUCKING SUIT. An eye for an eye-- you burned my retinas with it. Least you can do. Pretend I'm Bridget. We all look alike. ;)
"Senator McCain's record-- of ACTUAL ACHIEVEMENT and reform..." How does lightning not strike her, she of the wee achievements?
I feel like she's missed a word or two on the teleprompter. Anyone else?
"Do nothing Senate"? You mean...the one McCain is in?
"The American presidency is not supposed to be a journey of personal discovery" <--- okay, that wasn't bad. BUT she totes didn't come up with that shit herself AND she lost all points with the "community organizer" jab, which came three seconds later.
"Only ONE man in this race has really fought for you..."
BREAKING NEWS-- being a veteran uniquely qualifies you to be president...er...then what about Dubya, Sarah?
Makin' the bold play for Ohio...well, shit, if you name check my hometown, I'll vote for you, too!
So...torture is good, because it results in men like John McCain. No wonder we're so down with it! It's like a special leadership program, for those Islamys! See? We're helping!
She sure as hell doesn't wave like a beauty pageant alum.
End of speech...time to bring out pregnant, disobedient children! I can haz scandal?
Yes, Sarah...make sure baby Trig is ALWAYS facing camera. We need to be reminded of how special you are he is.
Panda: "OMG...he looks so old! Quiet down now, young'ns...Grandpa's gonna talk!"
Me: I like the color of his tie. It matches his self-tanner.
No, John, I do NOT think "we" made the right choice for the next veep. I used to adore you. Now, you are...well, you're not the man I once respected and admired. You have insulted my vag, with this candidate. I might forgive you, but my babymaker...well, she won't.
