She just won some more votes.
And rightly so.

Awesome

She’s here to stay because she’s the real deal. Obama isn’t, if he wins, four and out. Get ready Sarah.
hestrold on October 22, 2008 at 10:43 PM
It should be noted that in our culture the only accepted form of Bigotry is against White Rednecks and women like Sarah Palin.
jp on October 22, 2008 at 10:43 PM
A real woman. Don’t discount the secretly swooning male vote. Even those emasculated Whole Foods shoppers with the dowdy, angry no-makeup wives, SUV-stroller and shopping cart full of arugula might be taken in for just a moment. The right moment.
Hannibal Smith on October 22, 2008 at 10:43 PM
Good for her. She’s comfortable in her own skin (unlike someone else).

The truth be known, before the election it is all about how she is hurting the ticket, (WSJ/NBC poll), but after the election it will be she was killing ‘em. Between the ‘Cuda, Joe the Plumber, and Joe the Plunger, it’s popcorn time election night.

I just love it when a plan comes together. You have a real way of painting a picture.
I’m hoping that there are a lot of closet McCain/Palin fans ’cause we’ll sure need ‘em to come OUT of the closet come election day. I think the big loser this election cycle is the media. They have shown themselves to be unprofessional, unethical, and hopelessly biased.

Absolutely. Deep down, liberal males (they can’t be called men) can’t stand their liberal orc females. They long for a real woman, and Sarah’s the model.
Grafted on October 22, 2008 at 10:54 PM
I’m gonna go with White Males. They are passed over in favor of anyone of any gender in any other race as well as white females. They are also openly ridiculed on television shows, commercials, movies, etc.

MSM will say that redneck woman is code for Grand Dragon Master of the KKK in 5.4.3.2….
custer on October 22, 2008 at 10:58 PM
No doubt about it: Governor Palin knows how to campaign.
She’s a more chipper version of Linda Hamilton in TERMINATOR 2.
Heck, even Alec Baldwin had nice things to say about her after the SNL gig. She’s got the good voodoo.
sulla on October 22, 2008 at 11:02 PM
I like it.
On that redneck/working class/everyman note, ever since Joe the Plumber came galloping into town, I’ve been associating him with Van Morrison’s “Man Has to Struggle,” for it’s opening stanza:
Hey, W.’s a huge fan of Van the Man. Maybe Maverick is, too.

Back when I was in the Navy, I was once stationed at Alameda, Ca back in the 90’s before it was closed and believe me, San Francisco might as well be another planet politically when compared to Omaha, Nebraska.

Hey, a fellow San Fran Navy Man. I spent many a night haunting the dive bars of Alameda, especially ‘Johnny B’ Goods’ before the cops finally shut it down.
Bishop on October 22, 2008 at 11:20 PM
Yakko,
“I was once stationed at Alameda, Ca back in the 90’s”
Me, too.
It was a shock going back there for me; I was born in SF, lived there for most of my childhood. Went away for 20 years, and was very saddened when I returned.

Most “redneck” women I know make $125,000 per year (plus perks) and spend $150,000 on clothing and $13,000 on make-up in one month.
YAY! for redneck women!

BTW, since no one’s linked it yet that I’ve noticed, or had anything to say about it, here’s part 1 of the McCain-Palin joint interview with Brian Williams. There’s a recap of the day’s headlines and some other stuff first. Actual conversation begins with some non-news news at around 2:00 of Palin promising to release medical records, apparently for the sake of giving Andrew Sullivan blog content other than his fantasies for a couple of days:

Now, there’s ‘West Coast’ and then there’s the West Coast. Apart from some of the holes down the coast in California, most folks here are NOT represented by the twig-boy cretins. I live about as far west as one can get in the lower 48, and we are proud to be loggers, fishermen, smashmouth football, the hometown of Steve Prefontane, and the birthplace of the dune-buggy. Oregon’s bay is NOTHING like California’s.

These people aren’t RINOs…they’re something completely different…..They’re just like Liberals…They’re looking out for number one…and they’ll sell off any kind of perceived beliefs for money…They really want to be on what they consider to be the right side of things when the dust clears…and that is what is really pathetic…They’re too chickenshit to eat any ‘professional crow’ if the One reigns supreme…they just want to be able to keep being paid for doing nothing..(See Arianna Huffington)….
They are truly pathetic…You won’t see Coulter or Ingrahm bowing down….Hate them or love them…they have opinions and beliefs and you won’t see any of this from them…

By the way, Alaska is on the West Coast too.
What folks mean, I reckon, is Seattle/Portland/Eugene/San Francisco/LA. Think of them as cultural warts.

I was too for a time, even though my home state of Minnesota still had the drinking age at 19 so I could do the bars at home.
We used to sneak in the back door of Johnnies, then when the bouncer came through to check ID’s, we pop into the bathroom and wait for the all clear.
The Alameda base club sucked.

Kind of pales in comparison to 600 million dollars in the war chest at the Obama campaign.
And that $800,000 they sent to ACORN didn’t even put a dent in it.
Saltysam on October 22, 2008 at 11:38 PM
I agree…but all of that won’t fit into the poem. And it’s a neat poem…

upinak on October 22, 2008 at 11:40 PM
Hey – I just noticed – she’s really out and about – just like Kristol recommended – maybe like the campaign had always planned. Univision, CNN, NBC, Dobson, Fox/Hannity tomorrow + Pt 2 of NBC. Plus Fox spent major parts of its prime time shows attacking CNN for the Griffin ambush. I wonder how much local TV she’s doing?
Obviously why the wardrobe MEGA-SCANDAL is getting reported.
I think if she can keep the blitzkrieg going to election day, it can help both the campaign and her incalculably, in her case especially both for now and for the future, very much. Also excellent to have her getting out there bigtime while Biden’s gaffe is in the process of ruining the Powell bounce AND the VP comparison at the same time.
CK MacLeod on October 22, 2008 at 11:41 PM
Can I have her babies? I know she’s married and all-and a woman- but I think that I could somehow force my male body to carry one of her offspring inside.
Wait a minute: does that comment make me look fat?
Physics Geek on October 22, 2008 at 11:41 PM
Don’t EVER associate Alaska with the West Coast. That is the biggest slap in the face! Alaska has it’s own time zone and I would like to keep it that way.
FYI, this Alaskan doesn’t concider Alaska part of the West coast… EVA!

Even better is watching the elite wad their panties trying to figure her out. It’s simple, THERE is America in REAL life. Kinda gives mr hope that my beloved country will persevere.

This is the kind of woman every man wants. Todd is so lucky, yes I’m jealous.

Eh, maybe we can relocate all the conservatives stuck in the Soviet States of New England to Pennsylvania, we should have one outpost in the Northeast. Besides, there’s no way I could move down south, too friggin’ hot down there, and I’d miss the hills and forests.

The good folks in the Scranton area would welcome ‘em with open arms. Real estate’s relatively cheap, compared to Blue England, and these days you could Web up and get a biz going just about anywhere. Transportation up there isn’t bad either — 81 North, the Northeast Extension, 80 and 84… two hours and change to Philly and the Big Rotten Worm Infested Apple of Noo Yawk.
It’s gettin’ a little crowded in Pa. Dutch Country nowadays and York County’s getting overrun with conservatives escaping the People’s Republic of Maryland. But if you can handle rural, there’s lots of room in the midstate.
Bring ‘em on. We’ll welcome ‘em with open arms, a six-pack of coalcracker champagne (Yuengling), some of the world’s best pizza and a batch of pierogi.

Which is why we make tons of homemade ice cream for the kiddies and awesome, iced adult beverages. Apparently you have not been in the South. We even have some rather large hills here in Mississippi and when you fly over us, we have a lot of forrest! Been to Arkansas? Now they have some hills! Called the Ozarks. LOL!
If Obama wins, you might wish you were in the South. The women down here can shoot to kill. We can hunt for our food and are not afraid to get dirty. But I have an inkling that my sisters up North could fight socialist pretty well themselves. After all Sarah is a Northern girl and I love her.
I think I am gonna play “Sweet Home Alabama” right about now! Rock on my sister girl redneck Sarah! Rock on!

What is the “Red Alert” about Allahpundit – you indoctrinated product of the liberal media.
The “knee-jerk” understanding of “Redneck” is “Racist”. Jeff Foxworthy has been doing all he can to dilute this stereotype. I might be a redneck, and I’m black…
I imagine when you are a white person with innocence still in your heart, you might do some research. That is more than I can say for most folks. Who created the Ku Klux Klan, for ex.? The Democrat party (records in congress).
You go Sarah. The more she talks, the greater the contrast with Obama and his anti-american “culture”. I’m a black guy in New York, and she speaks to me more than Obama.
This ain’t over yet.
