I’ll take the Hockey Mom over the Stuffed Shirt Pencil Necks any day.
“Here’s how I look at the choice Americans face in this election. In politics, there are some candidates who use change to promote their careers. And then there are those, like John McCain, who use their careers to promote change.”
She Winds. She Shoots. She Scores.
It’s like the U.S. hockey Team vs. Russia in the in 1980:
The stunning upset by the 1980 United States Olympic Hockey team of a far superior Russian squad in the gold medal game started the evolution of American Hockey. Known as “the miracle on ice,” it brought hockey to the attention of all Americans and the whole world for that matter. As an 18 year old boy, I remember watching that game with my family and you couldn’t help but feel proud to be an American on that day. A group of young college kids did the impossible and defeated the mighty Russian hockey machine.
Palin’s Opponantes don’t have a chance against a real American,
They come off as the whiny little boys that they are!
They are no match for the Hockey Mom Reform Governor!
“Anyone who knows Senator Reid knows he never backs down when he’s fighting for what’s right and that he always stands up to John McCain when he is wrong,” Reid’s spokesman said. (Right Voices)
I decided to suffer through a few minutes of the gasbags on NBC and just as I tune in I hear Olbermann saying oh so sternly, “I have to wonder though, if the sarcasm was the proper tone.” (Malkin)
“Shrill and sarcastic political attacks may fire up the Republican base, but they don’t change the fact that a McCain-Palin administration would mean four more years of failed bush-Cheney policies.”

Liberal men in a panic; Update: liberal women spinning, too
Scroll for updates…
Harry Reid is attacking Palin as “shrill.” Look under “gall” in the dictionary for a photo of Harry Reid.
The shrilliest of the shrill Democrat shills is calling Gov. Palin “shrill?”
They just can’t keep a lid on the chauvinism, can they?
Speaking of which, reader Mike G. e-mails after watching the flustered MSNBC jerks:
I decided to suffer through a few minutes of the gasbags on NBC and just as I tune in I hear Olbermann saying oh so sternly, “I have to wonder though, if the sarcasm was the proper tone.”
Right. Because only liberal men who are attacking conservatives are allowed to employ sarcasm in the service of Hope and Change.

The Palin Speech Updated With Reactions
This is an excerpt from the RNCC via Hot Air:
“I had the privilege of living most of my life in a small town. I was just your average hockey mom, and signed up for the PTA because I wanted to make my kids’ public education better. When I ran for city council, I didn’t need focus groups and voter profiles because I knew those voters, and knew their families, too. Before I became governor of the great state of Alaska, I was mayor of my hometown. And since our opponents in this presidential election seem to look down on that experience, let me explain to them what the job involves. I guess a small-town mayor is sort of like a ‘community organizer,’ except that you have actual responsibilities. …

Some Real Praise from the Left Media as well:
By DAVID BAUDER, AP Television Writer Thu Sep 4, 12:57 AM ET
NEW YORK – With a forceful speech that served as her introduction to millions of Americans on Wednesday, Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin seduced many on television who had spent days doubting her candidacy.
It wasn’t just a home run, said CNN’s Wolf Blitzer; it may have been a grand slam. “A very auspicious debut,” said NBC’s Tom Brokaw. It was a “perfect populist pitch,” said CBS’ Jeff Greenfield. “Terrific,” said Mort Kondracke on Fox News Channel.
“A star is born,” said Chris Wallace on Fox.
“A star is born,” Blitzer said.
“A star is born,” said Anderson Cooper on CNN.
Posted by: Hugh Hewitt at 11:00 PM Sarah Palin is terrific.
The contest has changed. Her character and candor have changed it, and John McCain’s judgment is vindicated. The speech overflowed with tough, pointed, true points:
“Some candidates use change to promote their careers. John McCain has used his career to promote change. “
“The presidency is not supposed to be a journey of personal discovery..”
“There is only one man in this election who has ever really fought for you.”
“The special confidence of those who have seen evil and have seen how evil is overcome.”
This will be a magnificent campaign, and she a magnificent candidate.
UPDATE: Former LA Times’ MSMer Bill Lobdell: “I’m guessing Jack Bauer of “24? would vote for Gov. Palin.” Read his whole live blog.

How Bam buds are smearing Sarah
by Michelle Malkin
Special to the NYPost

WHEN you point a finger, the old say ing goes, three fingers point back at you. When it comes to accusing his opponents of spreading vicious rumors, Barack Obama needs to pull back his finger and follow the other three.
Told of accusations that members of his team facilitated the avalanche of smears against GOP veep nominee Sarah Palin, he scoffed: “I am offended by that statement; there is no evidence at all that any of this involved us.” Obama insisted: “We don’t go after people’s families, we don’t get them involved in the politics. It is not appropriate and it is not relevant. Our people were not involved in any way in this and they will not be.”
Hmm. Depends on the meaning of “our people.” The new issue of Us Weekly hits newsstands Friday – hitting millions of readers with a smirk-attack on Gov. Palin, shown with her youngest son, Trig, in a photo plainly chosen to make her look weird.
The cover line: “BABIES, LIES & SCANDAL,” along with these juicy bullet-items:
“* Under attack, admits daughter, 17, is pregnant
“* Investigated for firing of sister’s ex-husband
“* Mom of five: New embarrassing surprises”
The story reads like a partisan hit job because, well, it is. Pimping the “report” to journalists at the Republican National Convention was Mark Neschis – a former Democrat flack turned corporate-communications chief for US Weekly’s owner, Wenner Media. (malkin)
The Dems are running scared. Hysterical blather from all of the Obama surrogates saying Palin is “more of the same”. Even some of the most staunch Liberal MSM pundits laughed in their faces.
The truth is that Obama, Axelrod, and that toxic and militant Michelle Obama et al are all saying “Uh-oh…… there’s intelligent life outside of Chicago and Washington…. now what do we do?”

Their stomachs are turning.
