Can'tLetYouDoThatStarFox: In 9th grade, there was a girl with a nice smile and a great rack who ran for class president against the girl with the most experience and highest GPA. Guess who won. Well, the people who voted in that election are now voting in this election.

Issues don't matter and never will because Americans are stupid and petty.

hraja2: So basically what you're saying is that people who attend mccain/palin rallies (supporters of both candidates) don't show palin the same respect as obama supporters show obama and biden...

haha thats fine with me.


Hey, as long as you admit I was right!

Hehehehehehe.

Sloppy Shoes:

Your putting too much thought into this. CB is only calling out what everyone is quickly starting to see. I was at Kinko's yesterday and these two women where discussing Joe Biden. They like him but they thought if Hillary was the VP pick, the democrats would win in a cake walk. They went back and forth about Hillary's pros and cons but their one thing they both agreed on. Palin is totally unqualified and she is an insult to women. The only people care about Palin are the anti abortion including rape or incest crowd those who think she's hot.

That it for what its worth but the word is out on the street about Palin.

JQPublic: If the Dems had picked an unknown and hid him away, Howard Dean would be president.

yeah because we all know that one scream at a rally (that was overamplified over the filtered crowd noise) that was repeated over and over and over and all the "liberal" talking heads laughed and said "he's crazy" until he dropped from the polls is totally the thing they are afraid of.

not that she might show her ignorance on the important issues of the day. or say something wacky like "Jesus love pipelines".

thatvoiceguy: It's like...how much more unqualified could she be? And the answer is none...none more unqualified.

That is awesome.

Prospero424: Oh, and think of what the reaction would be if the entire Democratic establishment AND Obama voters started calling Biden "Joe" every time he came up in conversation or on camera.

But "Sarah", it seems, is perfectly fine.

at80eighty: different on the world stage

Clinton was not very good on foreign policy, even after 8 years. It is all about decision making, and either you have that instinct or you don't.

Unfortunately, you don't know until she is there. Good news though... it is McCain that is running for POTUS, not Palin.

He can handle those douches on the world stage.

That's why they stopped talking to the press. If they would answer questions, that well would never dry up.

The slender white hourglass feminine pins try to distract the poor black ball into slipping into the gutter, where the black ball is collected and spit back out by society into a holding pen, segregating the solid black entity in cramped quarters with its nubian brethren.

This long a thread on Fark, and no one picked up on the Nigel Tufnel reference in the headline? Shocking.

Hockey. A BLACK puck is smashed around on the WHITE ice until it is thrown into the net and captured. It is a SLAVE to the WHITE ice.

Bowling. Put your thumb in the BLACK ball to control it. FORCE it down the lane to do harm to the WHITE pins and throw it into the PRISON that is the ball return. Once the BLACK ball is released, control it again to send it back to the PRISON! The BLACK ball has no choice but to harm the WHITE pins.

Having watched her screechy and biased show a time or two, I have to wonder how Campbell Brown got her job. It certainly wasn't based on her intelligence or journalistic credentials. All of a sudden this no-talent bimbo shows up with her own one-hour cable "news" show, which is really just a thinly-disguised DNC propaganda outlet. I guess she performed well on the casting couch.
 
2008-09-24 09:06:28 AM
Im on a PDA so could someone link the story of the near revolt by the press covering Palin at the UN yesterday. Yeah lets hear about this stuff happens all the time.

Oh yeah did you notice right after that Tina Fey/Sarah Palin SNL appearance her favorable
ratings went down 10 points. LOL one more SNL skit and that might really sink Palin.

Duke Phillips' Singing Bears: impaler: It's sexist! It's sexist!

And around and around we go. Like I said, it'd be nice if we could be honest, but that's just not an option anymore.

Where the fark is Hillary? Is she done getting her lulz yet? Because now would be a really great time for her to jump in and do some awesome. God knows Clinton could break Palin's back in no time flat.


Assuming that Clinton is a silver bullet is a mistake. No doubt she is an asset, but she's not the cure-all. Sorry, here comes the conjecture: Polls I've seen and the women I've spoken with who (inexplicably) support Palin tell me that they did/do not support Clinton (Hill or Bill). I think that the percentage of former H. Clinton supporters who now support McCain/Palin is a rather small. Perhaps Hillary can sway those few back to the Democratic side of the fence and a small number of women who vote soley based uterus possession, but women who have always voted Republican or believed Hillary to be a radical shrew or whatever won't have their opinion changed.

Ultimately, I believe that Obama does have significant and unrealized female support which will be evidenced on election day. These votes are obfuscated by polls from Lifetime, et al., who publish results for questions basically asking "Do you believe a woman understands you better than a man does?" and equate those answers to votes.

I didn't read all the posts, too long. So, sorry if this has been said already.

Personally, I think the McCain camp will keep on the way they have been. They'll keep her in her protective little bubble away from the press, the REAL press, and she'll never have to answer questions. Hell, even if they win I doubt you'll hear anything from her anyway, other than speeches that were written for her.
Really, what are you gonna do?
She should talk to the press and answer questions, REAL questions but she probably won't. So, what are you gonna do?
She should have a lot of her life under a microscope (as should any person seeking work in office) but she won't. So, what are you gonna do?
She should get the same treatment as the other 3 MEN running for office (and you know Hillary would've) but she won't. So, what are you gonna do?
Perhaps that's what the McCain camp is betting on. When it's all said and done there will be a bunch of pissed off reporters and pissed off public but in the end nothing will happen. No one will do anything about it. We'll just keep right on taking it.
Hopefully they won't win.
Poor Campbell Brown will be labeled, like so many in the media these days, as just another part of the "liberal" press trying to smear someone...
