OMG .. Palin has energized McMaverick's crowds!

[Why Syzygy]

Have you seen any of the turnouts with her on the trail? WHAT A DIFFERENCE.

McMaverick was getting small, silent crowds. I'm watching Nighline, but I'm sure the vids are available elsewhere.

I don't like seeing those excited crowds. :(

They are saying McMaverick is riding HER coat tails...

1. Point?

What's your point?

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

2. The sky is falling, of course.

[HughMoran]

10. Got an umbrella?

What's the deal with high post count posters going the way of the dodo?

[Why Syzygy]

13. It's disgusting. That's the point.

McMav found a way to attract crowds. A bimbo!

[anonymous171]

3. That's why Obama is attacking her directly.

One agent of real change attacking an agent of cosmetic "change."

4. Why are you posting this?

Why all the doom and damn gloom threads?

Take a SnapOutOfItGoOutAndVolunteer Pill.

[Why Syzygy]

14. This is FYI .. I'm appalled and

someone might want to be warned. Sorry to rain on your happy parade.

You have no idea what my volunteer efforts include.

9. LOL!

It fits a lot of the drama queens on here too. :rofl:

[mokawanis]

6. Did he attract 75,000 to a stadium at any point?

No?
If John McSame is riding Sarah McBush' coat tails he's in for a rough landing.

[tridim]

7. The frustrated puke men in the audience just want to do her.

[dailykoff]

8. Let them gawk at the bearded lady.

If they haven't figured out that it's a circus act, they will. I figured it out last (it's in my journal).

[VADem11]

11. So?

The Republican base has shrunk since 2004 and McCain could never draw a crowd the size of Obama's. What's your point?

[Skwmom]

12. She's bringing out the religious zealots. That's what having a religious zealot as a VP delivers.

[Why Syzygy]

16. Thanks for your reasonable response

in the spirit of true dialog. I don't know why people have to be so pissy. What makes them think they are way so better than everyone else? That sounds more like the attitude of a freeper rather than a progressive trait.

[Binka]

18. What makes them think they are way so better than everyone else?

Oh Jesus Gawd did you write that sentence and expect anyone to take you seriously? Way so better? Please get a book and read, it will teach you how to write. If people don't respond to your post it might be because your grammar is atrocious.

[Why Syzygy]

19. My grammar is exactly what I want it to be.

And since I do know how to write, I can take liberties. You might be happier in the McMaverick camp where everyone is perfect.

25. BTW, Comma.

I can tell you have great maturity. :sarcasm: BTW I didn't ask for an edit, so I do hope you move along.

[Hawkowl]

27. Yikes.

Are you having a bad day? Usually you are not so crotchety. I hope your veteran is doing well.

[Hawkowl]

20. I hear you.

Don't respond to the people who mock you. Plenty of us get what you are saying. It's like the old joke where a guy is falling off a 100 story building and he passes a guy looking out of a twentieth story window. The guy looking out the window asks the falling guy "how's it going?" and the falling guy says "so far, so good!"

It is not disloyalty to point out potential trouble and pitfalls so that they may be avoided and remedied.

[Why Syzygy]

26. Thank you so much.

It's really staggering that "progressives" feel a need to take a crap on someone just for posting an observation. I usually just stay in my own little group down under where people treat each other with respect even if they disagree.

No crowds to shouting, jubilant crowds is a big change. Maybe DU needs a forum just for "cheerleaders" who are not interested in dialog. Of course, cheerleaders never won a game.

[Norrin Radd]

29. Also, don't respond to the language police who don't know the

difference between descriptive linguistics and prescriptive linguistics/grammar, and who aren't aware that prescriptive linguistics is considered antiquated and politically oppressive in the field of linguistics.

[girl gone mad]

15. I wouldn't be surprised if there were evangelical church groups..

involved, a la Passion of the Christ.

[Why Syzygy]

17. Probably so.

The Pentecostal wing of the Right Wing Freeper Extremist Party.

[TheKentuckian]

22. We just gave McCain too much credit as a human being

I used to think there might be something different about McCain but the reality is he is an irresponsible, stupid, desperate, deplorable, and dangerous piece of shit.

He's a traitor. He is selling out our country just to get elected. He's running on policies that he has turned his back on. What a lying hypocrite wrapped up in a flag that he shits on and no longer reveres because he has the deepest contempt for the people and the principles it represents.

McCain is not my friend because I actually do love my country. John McCain will lose the country to win an election.

[Why Syzygy]

28. Bingo.

I would like to know who chose failin Palin. Do you think Rove had anything to do with it?
I know for sure McMaverick isn't capable of that kind of strategy.

[bklyncowgirl]

30. McCain has long ago sold his soul to the devils who have been destroying this country.

A maverick is a steer that belongs to no one. Once it is roped and branded it becomes the property of whoever branded it--no longer a free animal. By choosing Palin--or more accurately agreeing to take a running mate who was chosen for him by the religious right and Big Business--he has given up any claim to maverick status.

[EFerrari]

23. Do you seriously believe after 8 years of Junior ANYONE will take a chance

on Caribou Barbie?

Seriously? People are losing their homes. They can't buy gas. They don't have jobs. Their kids are at risk for nothing in Iraq.

Do you seriously believe people will trust Mrs. Moose to fix those things?

:shrug:

[Life Long Dem]

24. More BS that faded as fast as Sarah faded into Alaska.

That is assuming it even happens or happened.

[npincus]

31. all of those crowds are banking on McOld dropping dead

so Palin could ascend.

[tanyev]

32. Hell, a hand buzzer would have energized those crowds more than McCain.

[EstimatedProphet]

33. HAHAHAHAHA!

Oh wait...you were serious?
