— Ace Hot smokin' nuance, from our fair and balanced media.
Women can do anything. Except if they're Republican women. In which case, how can they be so selfish as to put themselves in front of their children?
(This is a too good to check thing I just got from a friend... I've switched to CNN to catch their how-can-she-be-a-mother coverage.)
Andrea Mitchell on MSNBC... is decidedly funereal. Not feeling the excitement of this particular first.
The Democrats Go All "Sweetie"... Via Hot Air, Obama supporter calls Palin Quayle-esque. Because, you know -- come on. She's a woman.
Miss Wasilla, 1984: Democrats are saying just two years ago she was merely the mayor of a small town, Wasilla.
Um... two years before Obama announced for President, he was a minor state legislator.
Anyway, she... was Miss Wasilla in 1984.

Hot MILF in Glasses Shows a Little Fur?
Jonah Goldberg Says This Mean's McCain's Flipping on ANWR? I don't think that's true, but it would be huge if true.
Snark: LukeMcGook--
governor of our 56th state, if I recall correctly
Read Wikipedia! She hunts, she eats moose burgers, one kid just signed up for Army and her latest kid (born this year) has Down's syndrome. She's a lifetime NRA member.
I just heard on CNN her husband's a fighter pilot and loves craps. Nope: Her husband's an oil jockey and champion snowmobiler. I heard wrong; they were talking about McCain.
Her kids' names are hysterically off-beat but cute. "Track" and "Trig" and "Bristol" and Willow and Piper?
In 1984, after winning the Miss Wasilla contest earlier that year, Palin finished second in the Miss Alaska beauty pageant which won her a scholarship to help pay her way through college.[5] In the Wasilla pageant, she played the flute and also won Miss Congeniality.Palin holds a bachelor's degree in journalism from the University of Idaho where she also minored in politics.
Her husband, Todd, is a Native Yup'ik Eskimo.[5] Outside the fishing season, Todd works for BP at an oil field on Alaska's North Slope[6] and is a champion snowmobiler, winning the 2000-mile "Iron Dog" race four times.[5] The two eloped shortly after Palin graduated from college; when they learned they needed witnesses for the civil ceremony, they recruited two residents from the old-age home down the street.[5] The Palin family lives in Wasilla, about 40 miles (64 km) north of Anchorage.[7]
She briefly worked as a sports reporter for local Anchorage television stations while also working as a commercial fisherman with her husband, Todd, her high school sweetheart.[5] One summer when she was working on Todd's fishing boat, the boat collided with a tender while she was holding onto the railing; Palin broke several fingers.[5]
On September 11, 2007, the Palins' eighteen-year-old son Track, eldest of five, joined the Army.[7] He now serves in an infantry brigade and will be deployed to Iraq in September 2008. She also has three daughters: Bristol, 17; Willow, 13; and Piper, 7.[8] On April 18, 2008, Palin gave birth to her second son, Trig Paxson Van Palin, who has Down syndrome.[9] She returned to the office three days after giving birth.[10] Palin refused to let the results of prenatal genetic testing change her decision to have the baby. "I'm looking at him right now, and I see perfection," Palin said. "Yeah, he has an extra chromosome. I keep thinking, in our world, what is normal and what is perfect?"[10]
Details of Palin's personal life have contributed to her political image. She hunts, eats moose hamburger, ice fishes, rides snowmobiles, and owns a float plane.[11][12] Palin holds a lifetime membership with the National Rifle Association. She admits that she used marijuana when it was legal in Alaska, but says that she did not like it.[13]
Pre-gubernatorial political experience
Palin served two terms on the Wasilla City Council from 1992 to 1996. In 1996, she challenged the incumbent mayor, criticizing wasteful spending and high taxes.[5] The ex-mayor and sheriff tried to organize a recall campaign, but failed.[5] Palin kept her campaign promises, reducing her own salary, as well as reducing property taxes by 60%.[5] She ran for reelection against the former mayor in 1999, winning by an even larger margin.[5][14] Palin was also elected president of the Alaska Conference of Mayors.[8]
In 2002, Palin made an unsuccessful bid for Lieutenant Governor, coming in second to Loren Leman in a four-way race. After Frank Murkowski resigned from his long-held U.S. Senate seat in mid-term to become governor, Palin interviewed to be his possible successor. Instead, Murkowski appointed his daughter, then-Alaska State Representative Lisa Murkowski.[5]
Governor Murkowski appointed Palin Ethics Commissioner of the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission,[15] where she served from 2003 to 2004 until resigning in protest over what she called the "lack of ethics" of fellow Alaskan Republican leaders, who ignored her whistleblowing complaints of legal violations and conflicts of interest.[5] After she resigned, she exposed the state Republican party's chairman, Randy Ruedrich, one of her fellow Oil & Gas commissioners, who was accused of doing work for the party on public time, and supplying a lobbyist with a sensitive e-mail.[16] Palin filed formal complaints against both Ruedrich and former Alaska Attorney General Gregg Renkes, who both resigned; Ruedrich paid a record $12,000 fine.[5]
In 2006, Palin, running on a clean-government campaign, executed an upset victory over then-Gov. Murkowski in the Republican gubernatorial primary.[5] Despite the lack of support from party leaders and being outspent by her Democratic opponent, she went on to win the general election in November 2006, defeating former Governor Tony Knowles.[5] Palin said in 2006 that education, public safety, and transportation would be three cornerstones of her administration.[13]
When elected, Palin became the first woman to be Alaska's governor, and the youngest governor in Alaskan history at 42 years old upon taking office. Palin was also the first Alaskan governor born after Alaska achieved U.S. statehood. She was also the first Alaskan governor not to be inaugurated in Juneau, instead choosing to hold her inauguration ceremony in Fairbanks. She took office on December 4, 2006.
Highlights of Governor Palin's tenure include a successful push for an ethics bill, and also shelving pork-barrel projects supported by fellow Republicans. Palin successfully killed the Bridge to Nowhere project that had become a nationwide symbol of wasteful earmark spending.[10][17] "Alaska needs to be self-sufficient, she says, instead of relying heavily on 'federal dollars,' as the state does today."[11]
She has challenged the state's Republican leaders, helping to launch a campaign by Lieutenant Governor Sean Parnell to unseat U.S. Congressman Don Young[18] and publicly challenging Senator Ted Stevens to come clean about the federal investigation into his financial dealings.[10]
In 2007, Palin had an approval rating often in the 90s.[11] A poll published by Hays Research on July 28, 2008 showed Palin's approval rating at 80%.[19]
Her father used to take her moose hunting at 3 in the morning.
A leader on her basketball team, she was called "Sarah Barracuda."
Alas, she has a degree in journalism, but that doesn't prove she's unqualified.
Gergen: "she has no national security chops - what about fighting terrorism"?
Um, as a governor, she's the only one with executive experience handing terrorism out of any of them.
Democrats rarely nominate governors for some dumb reason. Republicans do. And then liberals denigrate mere executive experience as being nothing -- no "foreign policy experience," sitting in committee debating fishing rights! -- while being in the Senate, 1 of 100, having no real power or responsibility, is elevated as the greatest training for the presidency.
Snark: Bart--
For the first time in my life I'm proud of my country.
Pics! Here.
I heard earlier "NASCAR voters are going to love her husband." Oil jockey, won that 2000 mile snowmobile race four times.
He's also an Eskimo.
Here's the couple, shortly after having their last baby.

The kid's name is "Trig Paxon Van Palin," which a commenter suggests is almost certainly a hat-tip to Eddie and Alex.
She says she's not a "soccer mom," but a "hockey mom."
And now they're playing Van Halen's "Right Now."
Her pick?
Ummm.... How many millions is SNL going to offer Tina Fey to come back to the show?

Someone's gotta take all of these "enlightened" comments by CNN/MSNBC/etc, and make a commercial out of them.
Obambi went off last night about creating a world where his daughters will have the exact same opportunities as boys, yet McCain proves that they already do with his selection and the idiots pundits idiots at CNN and MSNBC immediately go after her like this?
Diversity and equality indeed.

About the experience question: as many others have pointed out, having been a governor (even if "just" for two years) is still alot more executive experience than any of the others. And in that time she must have had some dealings with British Columbia and the Yukon, if not the federal government in Ottawa, that gives her more international experience than Obama's gotten from wolfing down canapés in Paris while on vacation.

Hold on to your hats, folks - the slime coming from the left is going to make the nutroots' "Jew Liarman" screams sound like a tender whisper.

How much do you want to bet CNN already has someone on a plane, headed to Alaska, intent on rifling through her kids' school records and trying to find some sign that they've suffered by having a working mother?
After all, when Chief Justice Roberts was nominated, and they tried to dig up dirt on his young children's adoptions. When it comes to dirtying up an opponent, there's no such thing as too low for a liberal.

She's got a husband... why can't he handle the kids (of course, in all likelihood, being the VP will give her more time with her kids).
The dems are playing right into Mccain's hands. Being sexist enough to get those PUMAs mad (I hope). Joe Biden has no experience leading a government. Neither has Obama or Mccain. Palin has an 80% approval rating... that's a very nice approval rating that congress or the whitehouse would invade Georgia to attain.
Biden is a clown who can't even tell his own life story without fucking up. Mccain had the balls to take a risk.

The misogyny of the left will come oozing out now.
It already is. I've been cruising some lefty blogs, and everything you can imagine is already coming up.
"Dan Quayle with tits."
"I see Palin as the white female version of Clarence Thomas- a classic GOP affirmative action pick - find the least qualified minority and toss them in"
"Will Palin become the next Mrs. McCain? (John luvs young chicks!) or will McCain have Palin do a Lewinsky on him every day to get his juices flowing?"
Libs are so classy.
And a few potential real issues:
"Sarah Palin fired Walter Monegan as Commissioner of Public Safety for not firing her ex-brother-in-law."
You're going to hear about that a lot, while giving Biden's plagiarism and nepotism and Obama's associations with folks who were domestic terrorists will be given a pass.
But apparently, the left thinks she can be tied to all the Republican corruption in Alaska that she blew the whistle on. Out the bad guys in your own party, because of your princples, and the left things that's a bad thing, and you're somehow to blame. Wait, that's how they see America, why should that surprise me?
Yeah, let's see them give that a try while the Obama campaign is having reporters trying to find out where the big money funding his campaign is coming from thrown in jail.

I have to admit, this is probably good for him. I wouldn't want to deal with the hell Palin is about to experience. Her free life is effectively over. God bless her.
I think George Orwell really nails it: they are going to project like crazy, and will not really acknowledge that this is momentous and good in that general bullshitty way Obama's nomination is good. Mccain spent precious dollars congratulating Obama, and Obama has already turned that around (I'm sure this is by Mccain's design).
You know, we weren't supposed to win this one anyway. Might as well play hardball. I don't think Palin is perfect or anything, but shit man, the effect on the democrats alone is great.
apparently, Palin used to work with her husband on a fishing boat. That's hard fucking work. Imagine Michelle Obama or Laura Bush doing that. This is an actual normal human being that this country can relate to.

This is a good pick. The only downside is her lack of experience but I don't think that's going to hurt them too much. At some point McCain was going to have to seque from the general "Obama's too inexperienced to be president" to listing the many examples of his poor judgement and saying "Obama just doesn't have the judgement to be president". I don't think just saying he's only 46 and has 2 years in the Senate was going to be enough to win anyway. There are plenty of ways to play on the meme of "not ready to lead" without expressly talking about years of experience. My mind keeps coming back to that video clip of Obama talking about getting rid of nuclear weapons and slowing down development of future weapon systems etc. I have to assume that McCain has plans to shove that up Obama's ass in the near future. The commercial writes itself (ominous music, scenes of war, Russia threatening to Nuke Poland, cut to clip of Obama talking about getting rid of missle defense etc).

Maybe it's the frontier heritage or maybe it's the state's rugged landscape, but whatever the reason, Alaskan women seem to have more cajones than most of the men in Illinois politics.
Indeed, they do.

Surely Mccain and Palin aren't stupid enough to believe, in spite of so much evidence, that the earth probably isn't even getting warmer, but it's certainly not linked to CO2.
It's a fantasy of mine, and probably I'm wrong, but that's the lie I tell myself as I try not to wet my bed.

When the left brings up the question of her foreign policy chops, I'd like to see someone make the following point.
"The United States of America has several states that border on a hostile foreign country (Mexico & Canada), but only ONE state borders on two hostile foreign countries: Alaska. This means that as an executive, she's dealt with more foreign policy than ANYONE else on either ticket. Plus, she totally owns the "energy as foreign policy" issue among the nominees of both parties."
Posted by: Russ from Winterset at August 29, 2008 07:38 AM (dyz/7)
I keep thinking... Mccain's line on 'not ready to lead' was getting a bit tired... now Obama can keep repeating it for him (and it will make him sound boring!). Palin's son Trig is a perfect way to start talking about Obama's infanticide policy. Is Mccain aggressive enough to take that route? I hope so.
And experience can be measured in accomplishments. Palin has accomplished things, and Obama's similar time in public service is remarkable for how it hasn't even resulted in a lot of bona fide votes.

One is a relatively conservative (a national security conservative mostly) who wanted Romney and was worried about lack of experience. And the other one was a younger (22) independent with liberal streaks who made the "How can you have time to be VP when your a mother" argument. I don't get it?
Does anyone else ever get the feeling that the only people who actually took this PC "Women are just as capable for most jobs" stuff seriously is us Beta Male morons?
I get this kind of shock all the time. Its always my liberal friends who make the racist jokes or comments, or who indulge in the misogyny. The more diverse (minority or female) they are the more likely they are to do it too.

She may just bring Washington and Oregon into play, Alaska is kind of the spiritual center of the Northwest and they are culturally connected. She definitely will bring Alaska and Idaho but I would not be surprised if she also brings Colorado solidly into the R column. Many of those ladies in and outside of Denver, especially when you get into the mountains, are kind of like Palin, or at least see themselves that way.
This really shakes things up but I am concerned that she will get chewed up during the debates, anyone know how bright she is?

Wow, this is the BEST possible news. This could even tip some Congressional races.
I'll even bet this persuades more women to vote straight ticket. It's a lot easier than going through and picking this and that.
Not trying to be sexist or anything, just human nature.

I'm pretty sure it would be impossible to concoct a sentence that is more incorrect than that.
Is Johnny really going to wave good-ye at the end of the convention with his beauty pageant wife and his new beauty pageant wife?
The biggest reason I'm happy as fuck today is that this reminds me a lot of all the hoopla surrounding mostly deceased Fred T, a lot of gotcha and high school giggling, but very little else.
I am looking forward to the weird.

My fave on a scan-she had meetings with FEMA-hahaha-wtf. QUALIFIED!
I'm cruising around the nutosphere and about every post is about her looks and fucking her---just amazing. "Mr Putin Tear Off My Bra!"
BHO gave a fucking amazing speech, but the grass roots is what is going to do it, all this does is make mega church sexually repressed chicks (who are hot no doubt) and the guys who love them feel good for a few days.
I predict an anti-bounce right now as you see all those midwestern catholics and floridian jews snuggle up to Bama. Believe it.

She should stay home and take care of her kids. No, I am not a troll...I am a traditional Christian conservative and that's my belief.
Unfortunately, men will think with the little head and vote based on looks.
Women will vote for a woman.
Meanwhile, this pot-smoking broad with a journalism degree brings nothing to the table.
Flame away.

Maybe you should push your fat ass away from the table and go get what you want yourself.
I'm an old school southern man and I'll tell you right now that a woman can be ever bit as good a leader as any man. Especially one who learns to fish hunt shoot and ride. Why after the war between the states, most households were run by women, and the South still raised the greater portion of honorable military men.
