Glutton for punishment? Palin to drop puck at St. Louis hockey game.
Edited on Wed Oct-22-08 06:35 PM by Shakespeare
Wonder if she'll bring Piper, her little human shield, again.

Oct 22nd, 2008 | ST. LOUIS -- Republican vice presidential candidate and self-proclaimed "hockey mom" Sarah Palin will drop the ceremonial first puck Friday night at the St. Louis Blues' game against the Los Angeles Kings.

1. I wonder if she'll get a warmer reception than in Philly.

3. Not so sure. St. Louis turned out over 100,000 folks to see Obama.
So I don't think it's really a McCain stronghold.

12. Oh jeez... if she's a walking human jinx, it's ironic that McCain picked her
He's such a superstitious fucker that it's funny that he'd pick a woman who automatically jinxes everything that she touches.

7. We need Barack and Joe to go to a game
Barack would end up scoring a hat trick, and Biden would get a two year contract to be the enforcer.

15. The boos in Philly will pale in comparison
Obama drew 100,000 a few days ago to a rally. This will be awfully embarrassing for Palin, again. I guess she's not to bright on what to be embarrassed about.

18. Meet me in St. Louis?
An interesting note...

Earlier in the week it was announced that Sarah and Todd will be testifying to the investigator in the Personnel Board's Troopergate probe.

Looks like it may happen in Missouri, as the investigator is to fly out to meet her on the campaign trail.

I don't think her trip to St. Louis will be as good as her last (VP Debate/when she got part of that $49,425.74 at Saks Fifth Avenue wardrobe).

I'm so proud of my city :loveya:
