The Washington Independent: Sarah Palin’s Super Script

  • edwards · 1 year ago
    Ya gotta wonder whether Sarah Palin (SarahSixPack.com) is going to be the GOP's standard bearer for 2012, or whether she'll just be a footnote in history. Obama (ObamaAgain2012) is a shoo-in this go-round, and it’s very likely that he’ll effectively use the power of his incumbency in ’12 to win a second term. Question is: Will Palin’s star power within the GOP continue all the way into 2016? Or isn’t it more likely that many brighter (!) GOP stars will emerge during the next 8 years?

    Jesus, did you really have to shoehorn all that bold stuff in the prepared remarks. Great Scott! They should pay you TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS for yr work today. Having to hear it the first time and then having to hear it over and over, again and again, as you typed this up ... It's too horrible to contemplate, like having the left ear exposed to a cat being dipped tail-first into a Cuisinart, and the right ear exposed to the Frances McDormand dialogue from "Fargo," at top volume, three inches from the eardrum, with randomly stuttering thumb on the pause button of an aging VCR.

    Thanks for taking this bullet for America. Now go have 47 drinks, straight up, well away from any Christian Rock.

    @Chris G: I second that! Gads, I can't even read through the speech once, let alone edit "Ya, da price of oil is goin' tru' da roof!" Heaven help us.
    @edward: I recall reading a Newsweek (Time?) article in 1993 and again in 1997 predicting that Dan Quayle was the politician to watch out for in the next election. Nada. I'd give better odds of her having a talk show.

    Pass the Dramamine. I got motion sickness trying to follow her bumps, steep hills, and curving roads to nowhere. Bless you for getting through this gumbo yourself.

    I want to see someone psychoanalyze Palin's 'off the cuff' additions.

    Thank you AMC for the non-prompter add ons, this was helpful on some level. It's clear your decoder ring is more powerful than mine.

    America has more coal than the oil riches in all of Saudi Arabia.One of the efforts that will assist in securing our overall energy future is the development of clean-coal technology also....this is such a good information about coal.

    America has more coal than the oil riches in all of Saudi Arabia.Joe the Six-Term Senator, we’ll make clean coal a reality.But this is America, and it’s the most resourceful country on earth, and we can drill, and refine, and mine, and enrich
