“Waking up the sleeping giant”

By Michelle Malkin  •  September 3, 2008 04:09 PM

I am conservative woman, hear me roar:

The media has done more for John McCain in the last two days than he’s done for himself in the last year and a half,” [Tom] DeLay said. “Trashing her is waking up the sleeping giant, and the sleeping giant is Republican women.”

(Link)

A movement is born. From Reader D.:

I heard about a convention attendee wearing a shirt that simply stated “I am Sarah Palin”. Hearing this a light bulb went on. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if the McCain camp rolled out an “I am Sarah Palin” ad campaign? It would simply be a series of commercials that show a woman describing herself, like “I am a mom of 2 children, I am a wife, I am a PTA volunteer, I am a team mom, I am a marketing executive, I am a Democrat, etc” then the tag line, the woman says “I am Sarah Palin.”

They could have a series of women of different ages and different races giving their story, all saying in the end, “I am Sarah Palin.”

I would love to see these ads, it would drive the lefty feminists CRAZY.

Someone’s on the same wavelength. Via Jim Geraghty:

Spoke to Hugh Hewitt on radio row. He’s getting deluged with phone calls from women listeners, all saying that they’re appalled by the attacks on Sarah Palin. One has already printed up a t-shirt that says, “I AM SARAH PALIN. HER STORY IS MY STORY. BACK OFF.”

Some enterprising printer ought to consider mass-producing that, I think…

    I hope this wakes them up, but I fear much of this election rests in the hands of typical white men (like me).

    Let’s see, my mother worked nights so she could be there when her 5 children got home from school, and this was in the 60s! Sarah Palin has more in common with her, and the rest of us in “flyover states”, then anyone in the Demoractic Party hierarchy could ever dream of having. I’m considering voting for McCain just to honor both women!

    Great t-shirt message!

    If Palin was the Democrat Party candidate, you KNOW the t-shirt would instead read…”I am Sarah Palin. Her story is my story. So, F*** Off!”

    What a contrast…

    Huh? You think Palin does not meet those qualities … Strong, Articulate, Capable?

    Men I know admire strong women, like Margret Thatcher, and would vote for a ticket with Palin on it (even on the top of the ticket) in a heartbeat.

    Just wait, LCC; you’ll see that strong horse tonight. Sarah is going to blow the roof off the convention center. She’s intelligent and enormously gutsy. McCain has my full support, and now my money, solely because of Sarah. Go, Sarah-cuda – swamp them all!

    This whole mess is typical Obama election strategy. He gets rid of his opponents so he can win. Review his Senate race. Review his state races. That is the only way this guy can win. The great thing will be when he has to sit in the Senate with VP Sarah Palin in the big chair,,,,,,

    I’ve never been one to play the male vs. female thing. (As I think I mentioned yesterday.) In fact, insults about people who are similar to me never affected me. That was until this whole situation with Sarah Palin. For the first time I feel attacked every time someone says she should be home with the kids or assumes she isn’t strong enough because she’s just a hockey mom or insinuates she’s a hypocrit. I am mad and I am not going to take it. I am indeed Sarah Palin. I am proud to be like her.

    You think those shirts will turn off white male voters? I am a white male and those shirts won’t turn me off.

Absolut Vodka ran advertisments meant for a Mexican audience that were viewed by a hostile U.S. market. BAD for Absolut. Sarah Palin still needs to be viewed as the strong horse. We know she is, but if those who are not already on her side don’t see her as one, they wont vote for her. We need the Sleeping Giant and those poor lukewarm souls who need a shove in the RIGHT direction to vote Mc/Palin.

    I think all real men support their own Sarah. I know I do and will.

    Oh, and McCain to dagnabit!

    If only there were a legal way to do this:

    Confirm beyond any doubt for whom Bill and Shrillary really end up voting!

    Next stop: The Clintons at the 2012 Republican Convention (?!?!?!). Heaven knows the precedent is now well established!

    And Shrillary was a Goldwater Girl, after all.

    If Palin was the Democrat Party candidate, you KNOW the t-shirt would instead read…”I am Sarah Palin. Her story is my story. So, F*** Off!”

    You are too kind. If Sarah Palin were a Democrat the t-shirt would say “This Space for Rent” or “You Must Be This High to Ride.”

    The liberal media and their lemmings have definitely put their foot in it. It is uncalled for to go after a candidate’s family who has nothing to do with the candidate.

    Many women can relate to Sarah’s story and that is something that many liberal women, especially nyk and MJ, don’t understand. In their warped worlds, if you’re not a slave to the Dem platform, they have no use for you. They want to understand us? Only like emptomologists who like to study insects. That’s what conservatives are to liberals.

    My mother rasied 3 of us, on her own, with out graduating high school. My father abandoned us when I was 14. My wife has the same story except there were 6 kids and the father was both physicaly and sexualy abusive before he took off. Mothers who make it in these situations kick ass. But on the postive side, my fathers bad example is why I will fight to the end to prevent myself from repeating those mistakes.

    I like this pic

    I loved those photos as well: genuine, warm smiles all around. Levi shows a lot of class and courage in coming to be with Bristol. Lots of love in that family.

    My prayers are with them all. I stand with Sarah Palin and John McCain.

    Also,from the Weekly Standard, this is what Johnny Mac has to say:
    “They’re not doing right by our vice president, they’re not doing right by the American people,” McCain said, according to a source in the room. “We’re gonna fight back, we’re gonna get ‘em.” McCain pounded his fist into his hand as he spoke, the source said, and made clear that he would be aggressively challenging those who are attacking Palin.

    The McCain camp was saying over a month OK that the VP choice was going to be a big surprise, different, etc.. They could have meant Joe Lieberman I guess….but I think they knew it would be Sarah quite a while back. There is no way it was a last minute decision.

    Someone please wisper this idea to Bristol once we get past tonight. There is so many young women that can identify with her. I don’t know the exact wording but she could inspire so many women to choose life, as well as, give encouragement.

    I am so jazzed about Sarah Palin. She is the kind of woman that libs are afraid of. They supposed to stand of all those minority rights when in truth these groups are being used. They really don’t get what they were promised.

    bansharia, I also think that Bristol (alone or with her soon to be hubby) should introduce her mom. In fact, I have been thinking about it since yesterday! It would never happen, but I thought her speech could contain the words:

    “Since I have been included in the campaign by some of my mom’s naysayers, I figured I might as well really get into the campaign tonight.”

    Or something way better that I am apparently not in the mindset to come up with today. :)

    It seems to me we have a Vice Presidential candidate with the same qualities we admire so much in our lovely hostess, except Michelle might not do quite as well on field dressing a moose. :)

    I wouldn’t want to arouse the anger of either of them.

    The fact that Sarah Palin clearly respects the difference between herself and her daughter, illustrated by her support as opposed to throwing her daughter under the bus as Obama is apt to do, speaks volumes about Sarah Palin to anyone with at least half a brain. Unfortunately that seems to exclude liberal democrats.

    I am so sick of left wing, anti-everything I hold dear, east coast skirts telling me I’ve let the sisterhood down because I choose to stay home and homeschool my kids instead of return to my high paying job. Even though our circumstances are different, I am Sara Palin. I am doing what I believe is the right thing to do in the face of a culture that assures me I am wrong. Everytime I rage against the shackles of political correctness in my own neighborhood, I am Sara Palin. Everytime I go to bed exhausted and rise before I’m rested, I’m Sara Palin. We are kindred spirits and the way Sally Quinn and the rest of the liberal chick press corps are treating Gov. Palin fully pi…hacks me off. God bless Sara Palin and her family.
