2008 What Sarah Palin Thought of Obama Two Weeks Ago
posted by September 3 at 10:29 AM
onThe New Yorker reports:
Before she was running against him, Sarah Palin—the governor of Alaska and now the Republican candidate for Vice-President of the United States—thought it was pretty neat that Barack Obama was edging ahead of John McCain in her usually solidly red state. After all, she said, Obama’s campaign was using the same sort of language that she had in her gubernatorial race. “The theme of our campaign was ‘new energy,’ ” she said recently. “It was no more status quo, no more politics as usual, it was all about change. So then to see that Obama—literally, part of his campaign uses those themes, even, new energy, change, all that, I think, O.K., well, we were a little bit ahead on that.” She also noted, “Something’s kind of changing here in Alaska, too, for being such a red state on the Presidential level. Obama’s doing just fine in polls up here, which is kind of wigging people out, because they’re saying, ‘This hasn’t happened for decades that in polls the D’ ”—the Democratic candidate—“ ‘is doing just fine.’ To me, that’s indicative, too. It’s the no-more-status-quo, it’s change.”
And so on.

We know you read The New Yorker, Friz. We know we know we know.
Only terrorists read The New Yorker, or people who hate America.
Only assholes read The New Yorker. Or people who aspire to be assholes.
I read The New Yorker.
Check out this awesome run-on sentence from McCain Campaign adviser Steve Schmidt:
"This vetting controversy is a faux media scandal designed to destroy the first female Republican nominee for vice president of the United States who has never been a part of the old boys' network that has come to dominate the news establishment of this country"
She liked the idea so much, she decided to do it herself!
I read the New Yorker, Poe. Hush yo mouf.
It looks like Palin takes elocution lessons from W himself.
I'm John McCain, and I approve of Sarah Palin's hot fundie booty.
Matter of fact, in my mind, I'm groping it right now.
And no, I don't feel like letting it go.
Nein!
I've got a copy of the New Yorker not six feet from me as I type this.
Palin - oh man, what a mess ...
Have Fnarf and Will in Seattle finally found common ground?!? I sense a bonding session over The New Yorker sometime in their future...
