1. Is she a bimbo?
I always wondered what a bimbo might look like personified?

2. The only true statement I can come up with is that, for her, it IS all about her.
Speshul Sarah

3. Hubby and I were just talking about that
How she hasn't answered a single question thoughtfully or succinctly. She just goes on and on and on with a lot of gibberish punctuated with "this great nation" blah, blah, blah. It's like she's trying to throw enough words out there that some part of what she's saying will make sense or hit her mark.

I also had to confess that I share a weird verbal "tic" with Sarah Palin. When I'm losing my way on something I'm trying to communicate or just flat out bullshitting I tend to raise my voice.(Credibility through loudness? lol) So does she. Have you heard her using a regular conversational tone?

4. LOL, that's funny to me because when my dad and I used to argue I'd tell him that just because
you're louder doesn't mean you're right! He'd then get even louder.

6. So you recognize that too? LOL
I wonder if your dad does it when he isn't really buying his own argument, like happens with me. If he does it's really humiliating when your kids figure you out and call you on it! :blush: Little wise-asses... :spank:

15. I hadn't noticed the raising voice thing, but I have
noticed that the more confused she gets, the more she falls back on the "folksy" talk

I did see part of a press conference this AM that she gave at the Governor's Convention in which she started out answering questions and almost sounded like an adult (of the human variety).

Then she went downhill

Confusion...folksy talk...weird "Fargo" accent thing going on...


People call her "charming"

I say it's mostly bullshit she's learned how to use when there's nothing of substance she can think of

5. Nothing There
Every time I see her speak I just can't believe this idiot has a degree in journalism. She says nothing. No insight to her at all. I bet at the governors conference all those governors are holding their tongues. She comes off looking so bad for republicans. God help us if they put her up in 2012. ;(

16. What really gets me
is that she has a degree in journalism, but has no concept of current events. She can't even name a news source she uses.

10. Me too, she's the brunette personification of the "dumb blonde" myth.

11. I wonder how she plans to 'help' the media ensure objectivity.
I'd love to hear her plan.
