Palin is the best speaker of the four? Oh, Andrea!

[blogslut]

Mrs. Greenspan actually said that Simple Sarah was the best speaker of the four! Yikes! My newfound ability to view MSNBC online is both a blessing and a curse.

Political Memo
A Riveting Speaker, Waving the Flag

By PATRICK HEALY
Published: October 13, 2008

skip
As the Republican vice-presidential nominee for six and a half weeks now, Ms. Palin has emerged as the most electrifying speechmaker among the four politicians on the major party tickets. She generates enormous fervor at her events; people sometimes do not stop clapping or shouting words of praise until Ms. Palin pauses.

Which is plainly idiotic. Palin is a simplistic, jingoistic, xenophobic cheerleader who cannot speak in complex sentences, doggone it. She definitely appeals to the "base" in a way that is clearly unintentionally ironic: she appeals to the basest emotions and is a master of us vs them rhetoric. The more you hear her, the less bearable she becomes, in my opinion.

Long story short - no "there" there.

11. Oh! That's what Texas explorer is pissed about?

I thought everybody knew that. :sarcasm:

[TwilightGardener]

12. Andrea's right--Palin's such a refreshing change from coherent sentence structure and

pleasant voices.

[CakeGrrl]

13. Warning: Carrying water for Sarah Palin

is hazardous to your credibility.

:eyes:

[brianna69]

14. Mitchell is delusional

Just more shilling for the GOP.

[foxfeet]

15. Well, she apparently thinks that Alan Greenspan is attractive.

[occe]

16. Haha

:eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes:

[kennetha]

17. Palin is a good speaker when she has a script

She has a kind of down home folksiness that makes her seem like one of the people. She is completely incapable of independent thought or stirring eloquence. But she has the homespun thing down completely.

If she also had a brain and new something about policy she would be truly formidable.

[ericgtr]

18. Andrea belongs on FOX News - Only they would say something that fucking stupid

She's on the wrong network, in fact take that racist prick Dobbs with you too.

[demokatgurrl]

19. Yeah there was an article on the NY Times site today

that actually called her a RIVETING SPEAKER. FUCKING RIVETING!!!?
