Praise Of Palin's Speech = Hopeless Electorate |
|
Ok, this has made me very very sad today. I sat there listening to her speech and couldn't stop rolling my eyes, and shaking my head. Her speech was one stilted sarcastic insult after another. I thought she had fallen totally flat and that anybody with ears would hear the vapidity of this woman.
Well, guess what?
This speech is being hailed and universally praised even more than Obama's!
Really, more than anything else, I can't think of any one thing that has really made me feel like this is no longer a country I relate to. This is seriously the EXACT same adulation Bush regularly received.
If that speech is considered a "grand slam" without question (every media outlet has declared it so) - then there is no hope for this country. The only hope will be to destroy her somehow, because if she can get away with having that speech declared "great" then she can get away with anything.
If her performance was worthy of a "star" being born, then NO MATTER how she performs in the debates she is going to be declared the winner.

1. Sarah Palin is a stealth candidate - the electorate needs to get to know her |
|
If they do, she can say anything she wants in a speech but no one will buy what she's selling.

2. She was up against very low expectations...and she's a professinal news reader |
|
That she read a speech someone else wrote via a teleprompter and did it smoothly is being hailed as a tremdous effort.
This is how the senile Reagan became known as "the great communicator."
She'll die in the debate with Biden so long as she doesn't get to wear a wireless earphone.
