Palin for America: A true conservative: “She knows when to stand up and doesn’t let anyone tell her to sit down”
Scroll down for updates…vid of the announcement at HA…
The announcement from Dayton will start any minute. There’s a new rock star in town. Conservatives are full of Hope that Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin will bring much-needed Change to McCain Republicanism.
Catch the fever.
I’m starting a new thread and kicking off discussion with this YouTube ad from Palin supporters.
Yes, I’m impressed. Very impressed.

The official statement from McCain:
U.S. Senator John McCain today announced that he has selected Alaska Governor Sarah Palin to be his running mate and to serve as his vice president.
Governor Palin is a tough executive who has demonstrated during her time in office that she is ready to be president. She has brought Republicans and Democrats together within her Administration and has a record of delivering on the change and reform that we need in Washington.
Governor Palin has challenged the influence of the big oil companies while fighting for the development of new energy resources. She leads a state that matters to every one of us – Alaska has significant energy resources and she has been a leader in the fight to make America energy independent.
In Alaska, Governor Palin challenged a corrupt system and passed a landmark ethics reform bill. She has actually used her veto and cut budgetary spending. She put a stop to the “bridge to nowhere” that would have cost taxpayers $400 million dollars.
As the head of Alaska’s National Guard and as the mother of a soldier herself, Governor Palin understands what it takes to lead our nation and she understands the importance of supporting our troops.
Governor Palin has the record of reform and bipartisanship that others can only speak of. Her experience in shaking up the status quo is exactly what is needed in Washington today.

The ACU raves:
CONSERVATIVES HAIL MCCAIN VICE PRESIDENTIAL PICK
(Minneapolis, MN) – David Keene, Chairman of the American Conservative Union, has issued the following statement on Republican Presidential Candidate John McCain’s pick of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as his running mate.
“The selection of Governor Palin is great news for conservatives, for the party and for the country. Her dedication to principle, her courage both before and after her election as Governor of Alaska and her personal qualities make her a perfect choice for Vice President. I predict any conservatives who have been lukewarm thus far in their support of the McCain candidacy will work their hearts out between now and November for the McCain – Palin ticket.”

Jennifer Rubin at PJM:
…Palin will argue that in fact Obama has no more experience than she does, and that Palin has the advantage of sharing McCain’s views (and thus being right) on the surge, Russian ambitions, and meetings with state terror sponsors. The VP debate against Biden may be dicey, but the McCain camp knows full well that a vice-presidential debate isn’t going to make or break their candidate. In short, McCain is hoping that Palin is good enough on this score for a number two pick against a Democratic ticket headed by a man with virtually the same meager national security credentials.
As to the second, Palin has much to offer McCain. On a non-political level few can doubt her Q-factor. (She will be the first former beauty queen to run on a national ticket.) The daughter of a teacher and mother of five, she has an ebullient personality and an excellent TV presence. The Right will be entranced : a pro-life hunter with a passion for domestic energy development? And in the battle for “change” she has the record of reform and the identity of a complete Washington outsider. Finally, as a lifelong NRA member, an outdoorswoman, and a western governor she may provide extra help in mountain and western states such as Colorado, Nevada, and New Mexico which are certain to be in play.
On the policy front, Palin can make the case that the Democratic program of higher taxes, more spending, and a government takeover of health care is a proven loser. She will argue that she can bring practical experience from as far outside the Beltway as one can get. And, of course, the presence of a woman on the ticket creates instantaneous excitement and puts into play Clinton voters looking for a new champion.
The pick also tells us something about McCain: he thinks he can win. He was not willing to rock the boat with his conservative base. He can use Palin on offense to make a run at women voters and on defense to blunt the populist attacks from the Democrats. And it shows he understands the need to generate enthusiasm and “newness” in his own campaign.
Ed Morrissey: Change conservatives can believe in!
LifeNews has an excellent overview of Palin’s staunch, pro-life activism.

12:22pm Eastern. McCain: It is with great pride and gratitude that I tell you that I have the right partner for those who value their responsibilities over their privileges, someone who has fought corruption, stopped government from wasting taxpayers’ money…someone with executive experience, who has shown great tenacity and skill in tackling tough problems, especially our dependence on foreign oil, someone with strong principles, a fighting spirit, and deep compassion, someone who grew up in a decent, hard-working middle-class family…
Good stuff: “She knows when to stand up and doesn’t let anyone tell her to sit down…She’s exactly who I need, she’s exactly who this country needs…”
Really good.
The next vice president of the United States, Gov. Sarah Palin of the great state of Alaska.
Huge roar of applause. Huge.
Obama-Biden has to be in full snit-fit mode.
And Hillary must be experiencing a schadenfreude-licious moment right now.
It’s McCain’s birthday and the Palins’ 20th anniversary today.
12:44pm Eastern. Palin gives props to Geraldine Ferraro and Hillary Clinton. “The women of America aren’t finished yet…We can shatter that glass ceiling once and for all!”
Palin coopts the Hope and Change mantra. Sweet.
Audience coopts “Yes, we can!” Sweet.
God bless America!
For real.

You are a pathetic, sick little worm who couldn’t possibly be older than about 14. How dare you. If this doesn’t get you banned, then they aren’t doing their job here.
Thanks for showing everyone here just how low, sick and wrong you Liberals are.
Average Republican Candidate: “Sarah, Sarah, come campaign with me!”
Instant draw.
Thought of the day: Sarah Palin is our 21st Century Teddy Roosevelt.
Woohoo! Now I can vote! You go girl!
Fixed it for you, troll.
Source, please.
ROFLMAO. How perceptive. The political world “trembles before your searing logic”.
What is the Democratic PRESIDENTIAL candidate’s experience as an executive in anything, even a frikkin bake sale? And who cares about FOREIGN POLICY— they buy that from (stink) Think Tanks.
Reagan didnt have a lick of it either and he kicked Soviet Union butt. Besides, what is foreign policy experience? Learning how to eat something besides cocktail weenies at diplomatic receptions?
Palin has managed a state bordered by two countries and has figured out how to do business. Foreign Policy Schmoreign Policy…,.that is the schlocky speak of bureaucrats….the Bush Doctrine has worked, the enemy is in retreat and the stage is set for running the table.
Another Republic foreign policy rookie kicks butt.
How much did Clinton have coming out of that Hayseed Governor’s Chair (Arkansas rocks, the politicians inhale vigorously). And look at what we got from him: WTC 1, OK City, USS Cole, Embassy Bombings….on and on and on.
Syllogistic reasoning is for sophists.
Bear1909 out.
Now nero is calling her a whore. I guess conservatives have struck a nerve, a deep nerve.
Everything I’d love to say has been covered already in the replies, so I’ll satisfy myself with …
YES YES YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Image: Governor Palin gettin with the biker babes, goin to Nero’s house and giving him a piece of their mind regarding “furrin policy”.
Would he answer the door? ROFLMAO
On August 29th, 2008 at 3:28 pm, nero said:
I heard she slept with donors, so she could move up in politics. Is the down syndrome baby punishment from God for having low morals? Not my thoughts, this is straight from people in Alaska
If they’re not your thoughts (the brain would have to be functioning for a synapse to occur) how come your first words were “I heard”?
And as for anyone supposedly saying that baby was a punishment, I heard Gov. Palin on a taped interview from months ago say he was an incredible blessing. You must have her confused with “O-Who” You know, “I don’t want them (my daughters) to be punished with a baby.”
See below for confirmation that the Left has lost it’s mind over this and has no clue what to do.
Is it my eyes… or does the sky seem just a little brighter today?
I heard she is in fact a man and the real father of Rielle Hunter’s baby, as well as a Martian and the secret lover of Obama’s brother in Africa.
Flinchy Obinghole has a warped view of life that is consistent with his dry-drunk-narco complex.
One look at his wife, Ol Mike, shows clearly that her anger and frustration is with having to be something she resents… The First Lady of The Nation She Deplores.
So how happy are they really about their own two kids.
Reminds me of my first marriage where both babies were unplanned and my ex-wife stayed pissed about THAT for 3 years each.
It’s the liberal fascist way: resent the sacredness of life and fill it with ambition and false reverance in service to oneself.
Flush the lot of em.
Bear1909 out.
I am absolutely thrilled with the pick. I was going to vote for McCain but not particularly enthused. Now … I might actually volunteer at my local Florida campaign headquarters.
Liberals, thrashing about in the water about to drown. Careful! A drowning person can take you down if you don’t watch out! Better to conk en on the head and then drag em in.
God help the person who says something like that in my presence. I do not aspire to be tolerant of everything.
God bless America! This is my first time I’ll be able to vote for the President of the United States–and finally, I am HAPPY to vote!
As a Reagan Republican, what can I say except…GLORY HALLELUJAH!!!
John McCain, for once you did good.
BTW: The folks over at Daily Kos are all losing their sausages over the Sarah Palin VP pick.
The McCain-Palin ticket has won back my vote.
Yeah baby and to barry i got two words for you. Game over. Love you sarah.
Oh glory!!
Ever first reading about Palin, I’ve been sold on the idea of this tough-as-nails yet impossible to dislike (with the exception of the Alaska kleptocracy) woman as McCain’s VP.
Up until today, though, I did not dare believe McCain would have the guts to do it; I assumed he’d go with Pawlenty or, less controversial yet, Romney. Now I’m very excited and filled with joy and excitement that he dared pick her.
Let’s face it: There’s millions of would-be Clinton voters out there looking for just a single reason to push for McCain. I believe Palin is just what the doctor prescribed to draw a big chunk of them to the GOP.
HURRAH FOR MCCAIN/PALIN!!
Palin/DeMint 2012!
Atheling you’ve got a career in political consulting if you want it (re: your comments on Palin).
Sarah Baracuda vs Obambi? Ha!
BTW, Wonder what will happen to Doprah and the snub of her messianic pick?
This is the smartest thing McCain has done so far….and I believe it is decisive….I can feel it.
I think everyone in the conservative movement needs to take a deep breath and calm down. How do we know that Palin is a conservative? Beyond being Pro-life and a churchgoer, what do we really know about her?
I have this feeling that Sarah has more in common with McCain’s liberal views than is currently know. The first name that came to mind when she was announced as McCain’s VP was David Souter. A stealth pick designed to fool us into voting for The Maverick. I will withhold my enthusiasm at least for now. Just because everyone says she is a conservative doesn’t mean she is.
Wow good pick.
BTW – Anyone know where can I get a refund on my noseplugs?
Baked Alaska tonight with all the sparklers!
Correct.
The closer to home something hits; then, the more ferocious, mean-spirited, nasty, disgusting; and, most of all, projecting (in the psychological sense) the responses from the perpetually adolescent, dangerous socialists become…the more and more they prove, display, and draw attention to their immaturity and arrested development.
It’s pathetic, really.
But, most of all, when one takes a careful look, it’s dangerous; dangerous, because they can vote, and can thus affect – for the worse – what happens to our country, our society, our culture, our children, our lives.
Let’s pray to God that grown-ups, and not socialists, are running things after November’s election.
Saracuda…I like it…snazzy
Think about it. If mcCain had chosen poorly, the Libs would be laughing. Instead, they have come out lashing at her like the Medusa in and old Hercules movie.
What are they afraid of? Only that they have put so much into someone who has been a huge embarrassment since the whole Racist Reverend thing came to light, and has only had one embarrassing thing in his closet come to light after another.
You see it in the eyes and on the faces of every Democrat talking head on the tube since the announcement. You see the fear in their eyes and the panic on their faces.
How paniced? Such that they resort to defaming a NEW-BORN child with down syndrome and besmirching the reputation of a woman that until this morning, they had not even known existed.
Hey trolls, I know where there are some disabled children. Maybe you can go and ply your special form of love and tolerance on them.
Ok. Cool. The noseplugs are loosened.
Trolls are out in force today huh? They must be vewy, vewy sceered.
The HillBloggers — stalwart online supporters of Sen. Hillary Clinton — are fired up this morning by the announcement that Sen. John McCain has chosen Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin as his running mate. The common refrain: “Obama will regret not choosing Hillary now!” (Snip) “Barack Obama should have begged Hillary Rodham Clinton to be on his Democratic ticket. John McCain may well be about to bring that chilling fact home to Barack Obama.”
T-Bone, The Obamination is just like all these other Hollywood-type liberals who preach against drilling in ANWR. None have every actually visited ANWR, or probably Alaska for that matter.
What a breath of optimistic fresh air compared to Liberal pessimists.
Last month, at a Hollywood writers’ seminar (I was a newbie and vast minority), the hallway topic was the recent deaths of Bernie Mac and Isaac Hayes.
Third person to comment, a bitter sounding woman, said, “Not that I want to wish ill of anyone, but I can’t believe Bush and Cheney are still alive and Bernie and Isaac are dead.”
Bumper sticker suggestions:
Palin – A Breath of Fresh Air
Palin – Point Guards Rule!
Hey, thanks. It’s a good day in America, isn’t it?
BTW, let’s keep the folks in Lousiana in our thoughts and prayers – Gustav is turning into a real monster.
A total smackdown for the Obama’s, Barry and Mike. Whad I say the other day – pride goes before a fall so look out Barack – yours is coming.
The choice of Palin has brought the rabid sexism of the Left to the fore.
When the decision was announced I flipped over to CNN, where a talking-head was soon asking, “She has a recently born child, how can she run for Vice President and then deal with the rigors of the office if elected?” Would this question even have been asked if she were Sam rather than Sarah Palin?
I then moved on to reading my daily entertainment – the liberal blogs and forums – and most were a-buzz with the news of McCain’s VP choice. Rather than an astute critique of her policies, many posters and bloggers chose to discuss her looks, her interior decorating style, her weakness as a woman that allowed her to be taken advantage of by McCain (?), or even just referring to her as a “bimbo.” Those seeking deep intellectual discussions need not apply.
I think Governor Palin is a good choice, although I hope she does use one line in her campaign as a friendly reminder to Obama: “Just don’t call me sweetie.”
Send it to the Dems who have buyer’s remorse.
Thank you John McCain for giving me a reason to vote for you that wasn’t just an anti-Obama one. The dems are worried now! I agree with kcnut: game over.
Congratulations and welcome to the club of adult Americans rcool487, glad to have you aboard. It’s not ever easy but every year it gets more exciting. This country was born in conflict you should feel right at home, this year in particular.
Gov Palin KNEW the baby would be born with Downes Syndrome. Brave women with the conviction to NOT choose the sleazy liberal abortion route. McCain has made a wise choice here. Obama who?
Have ever heard the wise mans statement: listen and learn dumb a**.
or maybe those who do not look live in ignorance
do you prefer ingornance is bliss.
What is the reaction to the choice in the Arab Street?
ROFLMAO.
Hey Hamas! Hey HezzyBollocks! All that hard earned “cash” goin to Obinghole’s coffers just came up short.
Build up your shelters. You gonna need it.

These types of vile, loathesome and discpicable comments coming from the very people who carry on and on about the “Republican Attack Machine”.
Their vileness and hypocrisy knows no bounds.
The Palin rifle video desperately needs to be played against the video of Biden trashing the gun-owner, Jered Townsend of Clio, MI, during the primary debate. Will Biden claim Palin needs to have her head examined, too?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ZTH2yCWQMs
Anyone know what the song was that they played when introducing Palin? It was instrumental, like cowboy music – I’m not talking about “Right Now” by Van Halen.
Well, I guess all the adult beverages purchased to make pulling the lever for McCain a little less painful can now be saved for the victory celebrations!
McCain/Palin ‘08!
Palin/Jindal ‘12 & ‘16!!
Jindal/Malkin ‘20 & ‘24!!!
I have not read one liberal comment anywhere on the net today that wasn’t vile or degrading of Palin. We all gotta fight for this woman.
There is no Hollywood people it’s a myth. Of course there is a group of conservative show people in and about Hollywood that are trying to restore the integrity of a once great and vital US institution, support them, support fred5675. Support good cinema for America! It’s a giant part of our culture and its time we take it back, or up, out of the toilet.
Poll numbers please…
GK – think I may have found the most vile comment yet.
On the topic of Hillary supporters voicing support for Palin, a Leftist forum poster and sufferer of Obama-mania said:
“They just want a vagina in the whitehouse. They don’t care who it belongs to.”
I wonder how much of the Nomination cash that flowed in is going to go to doing damage control around Palin.
And when are we going to hear about what CHELSEA CLINTON thinks about Governor Palin?
Maybe we could channel Vince Foster to see what he thinks?
Bear1909 out.
Palin — “Not Obama’s ‘Sweetie!’”
Just made a donation to the McCain campaign. Where the form said “Who referred you”, I put down “Sarah Palin, effectively”. For the first time since Fred Thompson dropped out, I’m starting to feel good about this.
Not going to be hard to do at all. I am going to go clean my Ruger in honor of a GENUINE strong gun loving woman as VP Candidateknowing that after she and her boss wins in 60+ days from now I will be able to continue doing so with that one, and many more that I may want down the line.
Later I am going to clutch it to my chest and hold my bible. Anyone care to join? I know you Jesuslanders might already be doing the same.
bear1909
Long time, no see. You been on sabbatical?
Regarding a vagina in the White House—
These punk liberal fascists want the government to pay for having these organs installed on anyone who wants one.
And coming from that crowd— the one that dismembers all of reality into its constituent parts claiming that by doing so understands ‘reality’ better— the comment isn’t a surprise.
If there is any merit in what has been said about female genitalia, are we to assume the same about the male duo being extolled as the future of hope and change.
Are we to assume that the Dems just want pingos in the Casa Blanca no matter who the pingo belongs to?
Oh my. These liberal fascists say the most complicated things when they are unglued.

Lookin’ forward to this movie.
Trailer here.
We don’t even need to acknowledge the Obama Biden ticket, it brings us down into the dirt when we could be in comfortable surroundings. Let them flail, as long as we stay away from them we can use the drowning man syndrome, they will only take each other down. Just my ten cents, that’s all.
She is absolutely magnificent. I can’t figure out how McCain grew enough sense to choose someone like this.
Quote from Rush Limbaugh:
BWAhahahahahahaha!
It’s only funny because it is true.
Thanks fred5676, lookin forward to buyin my first ticket since the 300! I used to be a big fan/contributor, but you know, coming from old school Hollywood, I have my standards.

Friend of a friend who is a Dem just switched her vote to McCain/Palin
I love this pick. The leftist masters of destruction will do anything to diminish her as a person, because that’s all they know how to do.
Too young and too inexperienced.
For what? ROFLMAO
Flinchy is still wet behind the ears and he is the Presidential nominee! ROFLMAO The supreme wisdom behind choosing Palin is that it DOES raise questions about experience.
Flinchy’s rubber ducky life preserver just got punctured by a harpoon. Say goodnite, Flinchy
Bear1909 out.
You see – they always use this argument. No matter what, they are for something else, until you are for that something else, and then it’s “Why not…?”…
Weak.
You watch and see how many of these so-called Obama Dems who he, apparently all by himself, has signed up switch over to McCain/Palin.
That whooshing sound you hear is the sound of The Golden Calf being melted down.
600 posts and going strong! Great Day in the (Conservative) Neighborhood.
McCain/Palin is not doing well on the DingBat blogs. Was is something she said? Foolish me, I was hoping Speaker Botox and such would give Governor Palin a gracious welcome–Good Speech or something. Has anyone heard from mamaBama or Miss Hildabest, Hillary, whatever?
But there is NO truth to the rumor that The Anointed has send Joe Biden to Jessie the Nipper Jacksons Sex Change Clinic yet.
Good night Flinchy…. lol
That was Bill Clinton, their favorite cad.
i just love this image in contrast to the fate of the Deeply Closeted -uhhhh- Moslem Presidential Candidate.
Just when I think that McCain will pick a Washington insider or one of “the usuals”, he throws a curve ball and leaves me looking. I think it’s a great choice. Maybe there’s hope yet for conservatives. I think many will take a second look at the republicans. As far as polar bears are concerned, back in the 1930s, news was predicting that polar bears would go extinct in just a few years. Reason? Global warming. Though the VP office is “the most useless job in government” (Adams), and “not worth a bucket of warm p**s” (VP Gardner), it’s good to see a fresh new face running for national office. I believe she’s a scrapper and will stand on her own 2 feet quite squarely. I hope to see her speak soon.
THERE’S aJ….by thunder…howzit goin, Dude? feeling bedda, Chedda?
We be worryin boutcha.
Too young and inexperienced indeed! How old is Big Ears? How much experience did he have prior to being thrust into higher office?
You know, I really thing that the Left is so taken aback, so surprised and shocked by this that they truly are not thinking about wat they are saying prior to the words leaving their foul pie-holes.
Every time one of them had anything to say about her when she first got chosen this morning was another time they shoved their foot in their mouths.
Cavuto just said Obumble’s camp has nothing to say but praise for Palin breaking down barriers.
I think it is very important to keep the very first thing that came from his campaign out and in the forefront. It is already being swept under the rug and hidden, so as not to display their true feelings as to why Hillary did not get the nod.
PUMA’s bailing out on Democratic party, voting for McCain/Palin:
http://blog.pumapac.org/
If the Dem nomination was today – someone would insist on a vote.
You know, it just occurred to me. Maybe Bill called John and said, “You know who you ought to pick..?”
Feelin good about the Palin news, the bug, not so much. ugh.
Roger that RetFire. Roger that big time.
Nero #565 Having an aunt with Downs syndrome in my family I can say it is a Blessing not a punishment. Why would you even repeat such a terrible statement?

That’s the problem with false idols. Eventually they all meet the same fate when the light is shone on them.
It appears that God may just have had buyer’s remorse after sending us B. Hussein Obama.
Of course, considering the athiests in the Dem party and the fact that Liberals just HATE religious referrences in politics, it is a wonder it took God so long.
(Lord I am truly sorry for the joke I just made and for all the little kitties that are treated poorly in the pound…)
The trolls are just beside themselves on this thread. You’re all pathetic.
aJ- drink a quart of paregoric. call me in the mornin.(consult with your doc…works for my bugs when they invade).
Good to see you Bear.
Hope that, unlike what I received yesterday on another thread, you don’t get a gratuitous, mean, pointless remark from one of our know-it-all, often-wrong-but-never-in-doubt, wise-ass posters.
(You know the type, one of those posters that decrease the civility level as soon as they show up…sort of like sutraction by addition.)
Anyway, a sincere welcome back.

sociopathsObama operatives out of the trees at Berkeley stadium.RetFire: Meeeeeeeeeeeeeoooowwwwwwwwwwwch!
OMG. I was out eating lunch with my wife and overheard a guy talking on his cell phone about McCain/Palin. I got so excited that I felt like the first time I went to Disney World. We shouted this poor guy down in the restaurant and grilled him for the details. I think my wife is actually getting excited about this election. Why, I think. . .ah, . . .maybe I!!! am getting a little excited.
I’m saying an extra prayer tonight that Sarah and her family are kept safe from the demented moonbats out there. They will have a hard row to hoe for the next couple months of campaigning. After victory the transition preparations will be a lot of hard work. Then, from 20 Jan on the onslaught from the msm will be relentless. God bless them and give them strength.
uhhh, prendad….. u best do somethin about that convergence of excitements….ROFLMAO
She sure is cute – she’s like a female Dan Quayle.
Don’t know how anybody could feel safe with her backing up a man as old as McCain?
Why not Condi?
This is the greatest moment of my life, no wait Reagan being elected was the greatest dmoment of my life, no wait George W Bush attacking the Taliban with one hand while he stomped my most hated, enemy Saddam and Sons,was the greatest moment in my life. Oh nevermind, it’s a great moment!
