Sarah Barracuda Palin

 

 

(First version posted earlier at www.monicamemo.com/)

 Johnny Boy  made what is arguably the most daring and dramatic VP choice in US history (Initially it  stunned even the Gringo Advisory Board, which knew nothing about Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, but our quick studies caught up fast, as per recent comments.) Conclusion?

 

The lib eliteniks are apprehensive.  They must go into risky high smarm mode,  mock and attack  a "hockey mom" from Alaska, a state with less population than Delaware. (You remember the Democrats' Delaware: the tiny corporate-shelter fiefdom that big out-of-state "progressive" money bought for their Obama's VP choice, Joe Biden, the US Senator who talks  for a living.)

 

  Suddenly John "Maverick"  McCain has ignited his troubled image with conservatives and Republicans, re-charged the batteries, re-aligned the dynamics and changed the race for the White House 2008.  Ol' war hero Johnny Boy did it with just one staggering  (and yes, risky) stroke of  genius (say Republicans) or irresponsibility(say Democrats, as they and OSM (Obamastream Media) reach for the mud buckets.)  Either way, it is boldness in the oldness.

 

There is probably  no way on earth the lib eliteniks can fully grasp the import and meaning to Americans  of a Christian "hockey mom"  of five who can shoot, hunt and ice-fish, skin the carcass of a caribou  with her own hands, articulate as well as any Democrat, was called 'Sarah Barracuda' in high school for her intensity on basketball court, is no more Ivy League than was Ronald Reagan, may even be border-conscious and aware of nearby Russia,  is  affable, attractive, solidly pro-life, a tax-cutting environmentalist who has fought Exxon and corporate toadies but is ready to drill, drill, drill,  a professional communicator, with  more executive experience than Obama-Biden combined, a reformer who fights the kind of party corruption that in Chicago put  "change guy"  Barack Obama where he is,  has the highest rating of any Governor in the USA (80%), has instantly electrified the long-dispirited conservative base and suddenly lifted the Republican Party out of what John McCain himself had escaped from not long ago: tomb-like doldrums.

 

 Is this like a very old, now out-of-fashion Hollywood movie, Frank Capra directing,  starring Jimmy Stewart, idealistic and highly improbable?   Why, yes.

 

 And it's happening while the Pubs have been groaning for years in the vein of  "Where O where is the next Ronald Reagan?"  and "Golly, why can't we Americans have anything like a Margaret Thatcher? Are we really inferior?"

Democratic support is wasting no time in going on the attack, grasping and groping for material. They have "revealed" that Sarah Palin's teen-aged daughter Bristol is pregnant. A major left-wing blog, known to some as 'KosKooks,' also "revealed" that Bristol is actually the mother of the Down syndrome baby that Sarah "claimed" to be pregnant with. 'KosKooks' with "documentation" has proved that Sarah is really the grandmother etcetera ad kookus. Unfortunately for their "investigative" work, Alaska has been laughing, as Alaskans, unlike urban provincials,  have known for months that Bristol was (and still is) pregnant, the kind of family story that happens more and more frequently in today's liberal culture.

 

While the K-Kooks hastily removed their "proof" of the 'Palin lie' from their website, they have discovered more "dirt", i.e. the rumor that Sarah Palin was involved with a party that advocates Alaska secession from the U.S. It gets better. There's more.

The  Huffington Post---another elite "authority" on how conservatives think--- claims that Palin once told a "boob" joke. Worse yet, the joke was funny. And how dare this Palin hick not follow the liberal's script of a stereotype Christian conservative?

 

Another site portrays Palin as a Gay Marriage advocate. Charles Johnson,(http://strata-sphere.com/blog/index.php/archives/5848)/ who broke the CBS forged document in Rathergate) has traced this site to the Obama weblog that claims to be against smears!

 

 

 

Democrats are clinging, if not to guns and BIbles, to the investigation of Sarah Palin in "troopergate," in which a State Trooper was fired, perhaps improperly. Even here, the Dems must tread carefully or Palin could come out looking---again---like a heroine. The state trooper is a documented violent spouse abuser (of Palin's sister) who tasered his own step-son.

 

If Palin holds up in the glare of the national spotlight , while  the OSM (Obamastream Media) hacks and hackettes work against her and coddle Obama  day and night, GAB (the Gringo Advisory Board) is prepared to forgive McCain for passing up  Mitt Romney as VP.  Hand it to Johnny. He rolled  the dice like the last of the great riverboat gamblers (after cool heads prevailed on him to avoid almost certain shipwreck  with liberal pal Joe Lieberman). He even rehabilitated his name, Maverick,  daring to pick his equal  in the 'maverick' category.

 

Are we witnessing a totally unexpected political earthquake, Democrats feeling the tremors, once moribund Republicans waking up to the excitement,  aftershocks to be felt nationally for days and weeks to come?  Stay tuned to your special Acts of God, or Creationism, radio.

 

From the crystal gringoBall: Election 2008 for the White House is now the Republicans' to lose, i.e. They win, unless they try hard to lose.
