Alaskans! Grab Your Torches & Pitchforks
Vitamin Democracy, Baby... Pass it on.

http://shannynmoore.wordpress.com/2008/09/23/grab-your-torches-pitchforks-vitamin-democracy-baby/#comment-383

Oh, my naughty little Liberals, Conservatives, and Alaskans!!! Here’s your chance to grab your torches, pitchforks, signs, flags, and your dreams for the future. I have been prescribing Vitamin Democracy for several years, and this is a fantastic dose! Vitamin Democracy will make you sleep better, breathe easier, stand straighter, have more energy, and you’ll feel so good about freedom, you won’t need Viagra! Show up, Alaska!



It doesn’t matter to me why you don’t want Sarah Palin to be vice president. What ever your truth is…BRING IT ON. This is a compilation rally of many Alaskans, many ideas, many reasons to reject Palin. Your voice is welcome, needed, and respected. If you are from out of state, leave us a message, we need to hear from you!

2. I think it's going to be a good one.

Remember we had 1500 show up here for an anti-Palin rally when she stopped back in the state weekend before last. I missed that one because I was out of town, so I'm really looking forward to this. I'll post pictures. :)

Hey, if you want to weigh in, why don't you contact Shannyn at shannynmoore@gmail.com . I'm sure she's collecting comments from around the country for this event.

12. She's definitely a local hero.
I'm sorry that it took the nomination of Sarah Palin to bring her to national attention, but I've been so proud to see her on Rachel and Keith.

5. Is it possible?
Is it possible that even though SP allegedly had an 80% approval rating as GOV, the wise voters of AK, who after all know her best, will well know that SP is in no way, shape or form qualified to be (V)POTUS and, thus, vote against her?

Could that happen?

Please?

9. According to the latest Ivan Moore poll
Edited on Wed Sep-24-08 10:47 AM by Blue_In_AK
Palin's positives are slipping here. http://progressivealaska.blogspot.com/2008/09/saradise-lost-chapter-eighty-five-palin.html

Since the convention her approval rating has gone from 82% to 68% here. Republicans and conservatives are hanging in, but her Democratic, progressive and independent supporters are dropping like flies.

8. I've tagged you as a MR (Must Read)
I want to commend Blue_in-AK for stepping up to the plate Especially when Pork Barrel Palin hitched her wagon to a Giant Sloth, and hitting it out of the park here on the DU! You're a most valued resource, and I'm not just saying that because I spent 12 years in Alaska myself..

You Show her Blue! Remember the old AK postcard that showed women on the front up there and the saying, "Send us Men to match our mountains!"

It goes for the women like Palin as well!

Feed her to the Wolves!! :)

10. Thank you, Symbolman.
As I told someone else here not too long ago, I'm just happy that after almost four years at DU I can finally contribute something besides "yeah, what he said," or "that BLOWS." :)
