I believe adversaries end up underestimating their opponents when they are overcome with hubris. History has plenty of examples from which the Democratic Party keep in the back of their mind.

Trippi to Democrats: Don’t laugh off Palin

Mojave Mark to the Dhimmicrats: Please DO laugh off Palin

And, after scanning the comments at Trippi’s site; it looks like Mojave Mark gets his wish.

None of them that I read took Trippi seriously. Good news for the Republicans, as he’s dead right in his analysis of how this will play out.

Another Republican “misunderestimated” by the Left.

You all are grounded in REALITY. The libs are not. Remember when the surge was clearly working and for almost a year they denied it. Dont expect it to let up.

Sarah must be humiliated and made to pay for not having an abortion herself nor her kid.

For that in their stupid little eugenics/abortion world where they come from SHE MUST PAY.

She cannot be seen as a regular woman who fishes, hunts, be a hockey mom who follows her kids, likes to eat moose, and be a lifetime NRA member, or more disgustingly be a PTA mom. Feminists dont do that.

But lastly “true feminist” aborts their kids.

IF Palin survives this (and I pray that she will) she will be a shinning example of a new kind of feminism – one the left CANNOT have out there.

The left is scared. Hence, the countless barrage of attacks on the Dynamic Duo since the announcement.

One has to wonder how many different ways the left will attack Sen. McCain and Gov. Palin in the time left before the election. I’m certain the hate machines are up 24/7 thinking of new attacks.

Trippi to Democrats: Don’t laugh off Palin

At any rate, this shows that reality has begun to dawn for the
Left. The massive support for Palin on the campaign trail, the
enormous fundraising boost, and the sinking poll numbers for……

Let’s hope and pray your satellite doesn’t go down due to the remnants of Gustav…!

Gustav is wind and rain friend….wind and rain.

Outside of Wonkaland over there in Orleans Parish we are cocked, locked, and ready to rock.

Maybe Trippi spent some time at Hot Air this weekend

The blatantly obvious Obama bias in the media keeps getting worse. If not for Hot Air… I would be losing my mind right now.

Screams of Christian hypocrisy from the kook left in 5…4…3…2…

Nah….It would be Christian hypocrisy if they threw the kid to the wolves….or sent her to an abortion clinic (same thing, I guess).

However, it appears they are loving and supporting their daughter, while trying to live the doctrine of forgiveness. I know I can’t throw any stones.

One person’s fiction may be another’s real life…?

Now…

“Back to how the left is peeing all over themselves that Obama is no longer Page One material.

Thank God her Mom is not Nancy P. And Obama has already made his “punishment” meme part of the historical record.

That unconditional love thingie, her mom spoke of…that’s powerful.

Not to worry! Alan Colmes will have some sage advice, I’m sure.

It’s nice having some quality new blood….

Seconded.

Dude?

Palin’s daughter is pregnant now.

Okay, I need time to digest this information. Not because it changes anything about the canidates. But what bad timing for this poor girl to be in such a spotlight.

This is truly turning out to be the weirdest of all Presidential elections!

J_Gocht on September 1, 2008 at 11:59 AM

Valerie was the archetype of the intelligence dilettante. Not a lot of her collegues came to her defense. The press loved her, so did the left. She just wasn’t that good. [But I covered all of this over at CQ back when she and her husband were frothing about how their lives were ruined by Rove.] Her federal appeal on the dismissal of her suit was tossed out. Old history. But, at least she is not playing “spy” anymore and risking real lives.

But, we are getting off message….

Palin’s kid is entitled to live her own life and make her own choices under their ideology….

ManlyRash on September 1, 2008 at 12:08 PM

And I would have figured him to replay the Friday, August 29 show. WTF?

Sam,

When I look at these photos I juxtapose these images of a wholesome, all American kid with mental imagesof a confused young man hanging out with an avowed communist like Frank Davis followed later by Rezko, Wright and various other, unsavory types – and writing about it!

The decision for me is easy. And I kinda like fighter pilots, too. ;)

Okay, time to listen to Rush. I hope he’s in today. – Mojave Mark on September 1, 2008 at 12:03 PM

No such luck. I’m pissed.
