McCain's rope-a-dope pick of Governor Palin

John McCain picked a nobody--someone like us--to walk beside him to the White House.

Predictably the mean pundits are out in force to destroy Governor Palin and in so doing probably alienate the very people they are trying to win over, the undecided voters in the swing states.

Let's see how long Obama's surrogates will tug on these ropes.

Roping the dope
Did you know she only has a minor undergraduate degree from a small college in Idaho?

It's odd that the twit who made this ridiculous statement failed to mention Governor Palin's degree is in Journalism and she's a graduate of the University of Idaho.

Even before she's out of the gate the left media has attempted to turn her into a insignificant individual--kind of like the rest of us, who obviously doesn't know anything about anything, minimalizing the people who are also part of this country. The media can't even relate to a journalism degree, which seems odd considering their core profession.

Oh, and by the way, state universities provide educations for the "rest of us." This elitism is soooo tedious. and it's only a matter of time before people get a belly full of it.

Roping the dope
Did you know she was just a mayor of a small town in ahem Alaska? How could that be anything special; why would we elect someone whose resume is so thin?

Well, the facts are she's run a company, run a home, run a small (icky) town government, then threw out some bad guys in her own party as she rose the the Governor's office. Let's see, compared to Barack Obama's 143 days in the senate and his never having had to at least meet a payroll, it's quite amazing the Dems would even bring it up.

Obama's never so much as run a lemonade stand. He's seems like he's a mama's boy who has been taken care of his whole life by women like his grandmother, his mother, when she was around, Oprah, Michelle, women: the people he and his campaign have insulted for the last two years.

Obama is just another fatherless boy who's seeking to ameliorate his inadequacy about his own masculinity. Like Bill Clinton. Like so many dysfunctional men in the Democratic (and Republican) party who evidently are frightened by a woman like Sarah Palin.

Hey, Dems, in fact, do bring it on; let's discuss the actual accomplishments of the two candidates. Of course, Obama's lack of experience is fine for the presidency, but Governor Palin's, which consists of practical application and executive experience isn't enough for the vice presidency.

Roping the dope
She's appointed herself as the poster girl for the Right to Life. She is nothing more than a shill for the murderers of the extreme right who hate women.

Interesting that people would go after her in such a wantonly vindictive manner, as if her dedication to her family of five, including her Down's Syndrome child can somehow be construed someone's shill. That takes a lot of years and experience, if that's true. I suggest women who are so fearful of Governor Palin take a look at themselves and stop throwing the word "murderer" around. That can get a Pro Life person in trouble every time.

People watch this and see how crazy the Left is. It will backfire in swing states because it's insulting to a woman who is head and shoulders above those in dignity and in personal action. and is a powerful testament to her. The Left had better be careful as they try to demonize this good woman.

Roping the dope
She has no foreign policy knowledge; how can she be expected to step into the job without that?

Well, she does manage a state that is bordered by two countries. But that's probably not the foreign policy experience they're griping about.

My hunch is Governor Palin will take the podium and go toe to toe with Biden. At least she didn't lie about her "thin" resume and serially plagiarize large and copious "papers."

Biden, of course, will try to hurt her personally. That's just the kind of man he is.

Roping the dope
The Republicans chose her because they're pandering to the woman vote.

No kidding. I like being pandered to for a change!

Roping the dope
She has some baggage, I hear...something about corruption in her own administration...getting her brother in law fired?

The event has been vetted and vetted and vetted. I'm not worried about it, and I think the corruption within Alaska's politics are what people will talk about. Mavericks have enemies, especially big fat senators who build bridges.

Roping the dope
Well, then she's just another woman who doesn't deserve the job. She's like Hillary who thought she could skip up the ramp to the Oval Office by being the president's wife. She's just like most of those women who kick in young guys' balls and act like their mother. Yeah, just another woman getting a break who doesn't deserve it. How many middle aged women who have given their lives to a corporation have heard those very words from the Young Turks who push them aside.

It seems to me that the skipping the Dems are talking about also included some nifty side stepping from a little boy who wants to be president and won't wait till he's ready. The argument still plays. There is no comparison between the two situations and two candidates. Apples and oranges.

Roping the dope
She's a member of the NRA which is a front for (fill in the blank) ______ and Americans hate guns...

Except for the Americans who hunt with them and are proud to own them, who live in states like Pennsylvania, Ohio, Colorado and Alaska. They're also very concerned and cling to those guns and Bibles when progressive Dems come around, and still happily cling to the Second Amendment, just in case.

And finally, the best rope a dope yet
McCain's too old to be president...look at how the two of them look like Father and Daughter.

This is what I expected. Either sixty is the new forty, or it isn't. People can't have it both ways in their personal lives by trying to look hopelessly young and attractive and then personally insult the candidate who is older by calling him bumbling. Andrea Mitchell with her new mouth, the MSNBC preoccupation with youth, and their empty whining to each other, listening to a sportscaster, Keith Olbermann as if he has anything important to say. That's bumbling and incoherent.

Gosh, there are a lot of dopes out there who can't leave these ropes alone!

Senator McCain has picked a vice presidential candidate who's an awful lot like who we are or want to be. Governor Palin's story appeals to our sense of American character, grit, courage and know how. Senator McCain is appealing to Americans' better nature by selecting her. He must have a lot of faith in her.

She really is kind of like us--only better.

I'm guessing the old jet jockey saw a sortie that was risky but worth every ordnance he had on board. As it turned out, he fired and hit the target dead on. Let's see how far this choice goes in flushing out and exposing the facts from the rhetoric that stands for what Obama offers: that is, nothing, just words.

Good move, Senator McCain. You've roped these dopes into telling the truth about themselves and about their ideas. They can't hide anymore.

Thanks for the read.
