She even got the Pitbull/Lipstick joke wrong

[Beaverhausen]

The real joke is, of course,

"Whats the difference between a woman with PMS and a pit bull?"

"Lipstick"

In what context did she say that Hockey Mom/Pit Bull thing?

I find the failed TelePrompTer story highly suspect.

The teleprompter did not break

Sarah Palin delivered a powerful speech last night, but she did not "wing it."

This claim has been picked up on Drudge and could quickly enter into the insta-mythmaking about a speech that need not be embroidered.

Perhaps there were moments where it scrolled slightly past her exact point in the speech. But I was sitting in the press section next to the stage, within easy eyeshot of the teleprompter. I frequently looked up at the machine, and there was no serious malfunction. A top convention-planner confirms this morning that there were no major problems.


But here's a better question. What's the difference between Sarah Palin and Dick Cheney? Lipstick.
