You know what's fun? Listening to repukes trying to explain why Palin is

[crim son]

a good choice for VP. Even the freepers are reduced to single-word exlamations, like "Yay!" because anything else would would be a blatant lie. Somebody does comment that the Palin pick is a "home run".

The simple pleasures give the greatest joy. :rofl:

1. But there's another factor, though when I pointed it out it flew like a lead balloon:

I thought the Lounge was a place for jokes and non-seriousness.

2. I admit, Redstone,

I saw the thread and didn't dare respond. :P

Hey, it worked for Katherine Harris, right?

[Redstone]

3. That's one of the things I like about you, is that you're so damn intelligent.

Your comment about Katherine Harris only confirms my respect for your intellect.

And you know me well enough to know that there's not even a molecule of sarcasm in either of the above sentences.

5. As I count it, she was absolutely on the top of his list...

After 20 some other repug governors, 221 repug representatives and 49 repug senators turned him down cold. That left the mittster, lieberdork and her. McCain has had lieberman already, romney's a prude, and well, Palin, we know she does it.

7. Laughing.

I don't get your point, but like it anyway. :P

[TK421]

8. Listening to the Palin acceptance speech...and every five minutes or so the crowd breaks into that

chant....USA, USA, USA!!!!!!!! waving the fucking flag around like it's intended to ward off demons or something...I caught this about two hours ago. :hi:

[crim son]

18. Aha!

I read snippets but rarely have the television on. :hi:

[JVS]

9. "Yay!" is an explanation?

:-)

[Danger Mouse]

10. Hmmm. I wouldn't underestimate her.

[crim son]

12. I'm not sure I am

because I know almost nothing about her but the negatives posted here on DU. You mean, the freepers ought not underestimate her. We'll see. I am of the pessimistic belief that it wouldn't matter if she were an ex-con, drug trafficking pedophile. They'd still sing her praises and vote for the McCain ticket come November. :eyes:

[Danger Mouse]

13. Of course. I think she's a lousy pick...

but we'll have to play our cards carefully.
Obama is so great, I have faith in him and his smarts.

[crim son]

16. Eight years of corruption and lies

has left me feeling hopelessly cynical. But Obama is a great man and McCain is not.

[SPKrazy]

11. Well She Was Runner Up To Miss Alaska in 1984

and she hunts and likes Mooseburgers

she also apparently no longer believes that climate change is man made

how convenient given that she also supports drilling in Alaska

Yay, is about as much enthusiasm as anyone can possibly muster for her at this point, they're all going "who?"

[crim son]

14. One poster over there claimed that she was

at the top of the list of contenders. Contenders for what, I wonder?

[SPKrazy]

15. I think to allow drilling in ANWR

while simultaneously raising taxes on oil companies

She also might be a favorite of the right to lifers that McCain needs so badly, she didn't abort her child that has Down Syndrome and is thought well of apparently by right to lifers because of that.

She also is so unknown that she may be hard to find much on.

But hey, global climate change isn't man made, that's a winner for the Limbaugh types

[crim son]

17. And the fact that she's a woman?

Help or hurt? Much of the hatred directed at Hillary was based on her gender.
