The Next American Idol!!! She's the biggest thing to hit this country since Sanjaya Malakar!

Sarah Palin raaawwwked. She killed. She's a natural, an instant star in a country where instant-stars are our most thriving domestic industry. I want to compare her performance to that of Ollie North in the Iran-Contra hearings -- remember Ollie-mania?? -- but I worry that that might be too obscure a reference for some younger readers. So let's just say she's the biggest thing to hit this country since Sanjaya Malakar!

For months the GOP has been accusing Barack Obama of being nothing more than a guy who gives a pretty speech. Well, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em. Think Obama's too much of a celebrity? After we finish making Sarah Palin a cosmic superstar, Obama by comparison is going to look like Alben Barkley!

Palin remains very much an unknown -- to McCain, among others -- but she showed herself ready for prime time. I get nervous talking to pre-schoolers at the elementary school; she went up in front of a national audience that didn't know her from Sara Lee and blew the roof off. I don't know how she could have done better.

The commentariat noted that she didn't write her own speech. But no one does. I doubt Biden wrote his, either -- and Palin gave a much better speech than Biden, in case you didn't notice. You say she actually was for the Bridge to Nowhere and now claims to have been against it? Don't get stuck on technicalities. Who among us can keep track of every unnecessary $200 million bridge we've supported over the years?

Sanjaya had more interesting hair. Plus I don't think he had rabies either.:evilgrin:

3. She gave a fantastic speech.

But considering she had little or no input and was sequestered for three days, it should have been good. It was a performance and I only had to hit the john three times.:puke: :puke: :puke:

4. Uh..What was fantastic about it?

I didn't see anything to like from content to form!

It was a vile collection of snipes delivered with much

gusto and venom!
