You go girl (Via MM):

(adding the actual video link here so it will show up when this post is emailed)

After you get done watching that, make sure to check out this side by side comparison of the experience of Democrat presidential nominee Sen. Obama versus the experience of Republican VP nominee Gov. Palin. It’s missing a few things but overall it’s pretty darn effective at getting the point across :) Please make sure to email it to any friend and/or family member you think would be receptive to learning more about Palin.

Related: And guess who is making a subtle little sexist attack against Gov. Palin? The same hypocrite who thinks John McCain is lying about his cross in the sand story. Patterico has the details. It’s tame in comparison to some of the other blatantly sexist attacks I’ve seen made on her from far lefties the last couple of days, but that doesn’t make it right to say. So much for “women’s rights” and “free choice” to choose what they want to do with their lives.

  1. Tell me again how she weakens the “experience argument?” She’s going to eat the senator from MBNA alive when it comes to energy policy. :)

    Well, it appears that Palin and the GOP are going to have their work cut out for them.

    Polls: Voters Doubt Palin’s Qualifications While Obama Expands Lead

    Most voters are unfamiliar with John McCain’s new running mate, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, and many question her qualifications to be president, according to a USA TODAY/Gallup poll.

    Now, don’t get me wrong. I’m not much for polls, but it does sound like they are going to have a lot of work to do, and I’m sure the press will do all they can do nurture this kind of attitude in the public.

    I just hope enough people get informed and really look at Palin’s experience before passing judgment. God knows, she’s more qualified than Obama right now.

    Oh, don’t worry, they’ll know more about her after the convention.

    Remember, nobody knew about Spiro Agnew before he was picked. (Of course, on the down side, nobody liked what they found out.)

    It gets worse:

    The New Republic suggests that Sarah Palin practices witchcraft and named her children after witches.

    And now:

    Several lefty blogs claim that Sarah Palin posed for nude pictures.

    This is only the beginning. I said it before and I will say it again – the evil that will be done in this campaign on behalf of the Chosen One will dwarf all other political campaigns in American history.

  5. NC, here’s a better poll in terms of the news it delivers:

    UTICA, New York – Republican John McCain’s surprise announcement Friday of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin as his running mate – some 16 hours after Democrat Barack Obama’s historic speech accepting his party’s presidential nomination – has possibly stunted any Obama convention bump, the latest Zogby Interactive flash poll of the race shows.

    The latest nationwide survey, begun Friday afternoon after the McCain announcement of Palin as running mate and completed mid-afternoon today, shows McCain/Palin at 47%, compared to 45% support for Obama/Biden.

    In other words, the race is a dead heat.

    The interactive online Zogby survey shows that both Obama and McCain have solidified the support among their own parties – Obama won 86% support of Democrats and McCain 89% of Republicans in a two-way head-to-head poll question not including the running mates. When Biden and Palin are added to the mix, Obama’s Democratic support remains at 86%, while McCain’s increases to 92%.

    After the McCain “Veep” announcement on Friday, Palin was almost immediately hailed as a strong conservative, and those voters have rallied to the GOP ticket, the survey shows. Republicans gather in St. Paul, Minnesota this week to officially nominate McCain and Palin as their presidential ticket.

    I like that one MUCH better!!!

    :d

  7. Several lefty blogs claim that Sarah Palin posed for nude pictures.

    To which I would reply, “Who cares?” If (If!) she posed for erotic shots for an earlier boyfriend or her boyfriend/then husband, it ain’t none of our business. And whoever turned them over to the press (if they exist) is the real sleaze-bag in this situation. x(

    I hope everyone reads the “Side by side comparison” of Palin & Obama. It’s most interesting….& in some places, on the Obama side, quite laughable. I punished myself yesterday & watched a little of the Biden speech to the crowd followed by his “sidekick” Obama & I was as uncomfortable watching that as I was at times watching/listening to Bush stumble over words…The picture intruding into my brain of Biden & Obama was “The Odd Couple”…except the movie was “pretend”….this was real….Does anyone else think they are the “modern day” Odd Couple??? :-?

    Obama’s first choice to change the Washington culture is a 30+ year member of the legislature. If government is broken, as the candidate claims, why chose someone who created and maintained the failed system? Are there no qualified executives who have made tough decisions and were then held accountable for the results?
    McCain first choice is an executive as far from D.C as one can get. I personally prefer a few years of observable results over many years of failed promises.
    And, as for change, 50 years ago Cuba and Puerto Rico were similar Island Nations in the Caribbean Sea until Castro introduced the changes that Democrats propose now.

    Incidentally, the alleged nude photos are actually pictures of a young Julia Louis Dreyfus.
