Awesome! I can't wait to protest her with all my friends! I encourage others to join us. Let's show Palin what real Floridians/Americans think about her and send her crying back to Alaska.

Is it all you obama supporters that are going to riot in the streets when obama loses or is it just the blacks?

If I disagree with you, does that make me other than a "real Floridians/American?
Do I have the same right you do to protest Obama or Biden?
Posted by: | October 23, 2008 at 05:30 PM
Sure you do, 5:30. Is it ok if I wear jeans? I know how much you must hate the fashion challenged six pack guys but, ya know what? I don't have 100 large to fix myself up for your party. Not part of the elite - ya know?
Hey - while you're in Nordstroms, see if they have one of them plumber's helpers in pink - and some fuschia colored pipe sealer would be good.

May she is here to go shopping to ad to the 150K of clothes republican "joes" have already bought her. GIMMEE MY MONEY BACK!

5:39 you do know that the oldest human civilization is black and all other groups are decendants...hmmmm..guess that means you are a decendant of monkeys and from Africa too.....sorry too much intelligence for you...I know.
Posted by: | October 23, 2008 at 05:50 PM
Classy comment by Mark @ 5:39. Shows the rest of us exactly the type of people we're dealing with in the Republican, errr should I say Neo-Con party.
The polls are indeed not accurate, as this will clearly be a landslide election for President Obama.
And no Mrs. Palin, you can't keep the clothes.
Posted by: | October 23, 2008 at 05:51 PM
I hope she does come. I'd love to protest at her visit.

why would anyone vote for this black stuttering fool.
If only one of the allegations against him are true then he is a worthless piece of negro garbage

Where does it say that a porch monkey can be president?
Posted by: | October 23, 2008 at 06:09 PM
It's not his color but his policies I'm opposing. Taking from one and giving that to another is just morally wrong.
Posted by: Donald Lance | October 23, 2008 at 06:18 PM
Does the St. Pete Times know that some moron used the term "porch monkey" above. Are there NO STANDARDS here?
I wonder what Joe the Plumber thinks of Sarah's $150,000.00 clothes shopping spree. That sure is something that us ordinary Joes can relate to--150 Grand in fancy clothes.
She's got the common touch?
Posted by: | October 23, 2008 at 06:29 PM
Sure that's what you think, Donny. But you know what's really a riot? A McCain toadie talking about morals. McCain used to be - USED TO BE - an american hero. He now is a lying, stuttering, erratic, old fool. And Palin? Well - I don't need to say anything about Palin. She does it to herself. Tell me this, Donny - did the doddering old fool do good for the country by picking Palin over, say, ANY female member of the senate? Or any of at least a hundred other women who have proven themselves capable of getting more than five words out of their mouths before they forgot where they are? Palin alone - without even talking about all his lies and BS - disqualifies McCain from serious consideration by any thoughtful person. He made a cynical choice after promising it would be thoughtful.
Who's your bet for a McCain secretary of state, Donny?
Oh - and what's your thinking about Palin STILL not knowing the vp doesn't run the senate?
Final question, Donny - if "taking from one and giving to another is just morally wrong," what's McCain doing with the 300 billion he wants to buy up bad mortgages? And where does it come from? In other words, how does he propose to do it without "taking from one and giving that to another?"

That's what happens, 6:42. First sign is dribbling. Then you start feeling important and like you have something to say. Then you babble. and then you repeat yourself because you didn't understand your first babble.
Oh - and before you try to use the big words - look 'em up. Hint: it's not "dueschbag."

The hatred on these message boards is getting out of control.
Posted by: | October 23, 2008 at 06:56 PM
It's always a pleasure to see people like you trying to string a bunch of words together to express a thought. What you ought to do is write it down and have someone (hopefully a high school graduate, at least) read it and show you how to change it so it's effective. Hint 2: Your first sentence makes absolutely no sense. Did you look up the word you were trying to use when you said, "dueschbag?" No more hints - stay stupid.
Posted by: LittleBro | October 23, 2008 at 06:59 PM
You're partly right, 6;56. But I don't think it's really "hatred." "Hateful" born of a lack of education.
However, you are right in your thought - I'll ignore the ignoramus.

Posted by: | October 23, 2008 at 07:08 PM
LittleBro! Nice try but you couldn't say anything positive about Barry. I told you before that I am not a Republican, so you trying to paint me in a corner will not work. The problem you discribed above is there are 3 Senators at stake and 1 Governor. Name me another female governor? Kansas? Democrat baby-killer. Michigan? Too much baggage. Hawaii? Might as well stay with AK where she is the most popular governor in the states. So what you are saying is that the citizen's of AK are wrong to support her overwhelmingly? By that rationale, I assume you mean that you are a better judge of leadership than the citizen's of AK. I'm bowing before you now great seer of character. If you know character so well, then why are you pro-Barry? That last sentence has to hurt you!
Posted by: Donald Lance | October 23, 2008 at 07:29 PM
Donny - you still make absolutely no sense. Do you mean to tell me there is not a single woman in this entire country who has at least read Article I of the constitution?
But - the main point was yours - that it's "morally" wrong to take from one and give to another. How does McCain intend his 300 billion dollar mortgage buy to work without taking from one and giving to another?
Oh - I don't pretend to be a great seer of character but I know you're trying hard to be ironic without being stupidly sarcastic. And I also think McCain is a good judge of character. That's what makes him a liar - he KNOWS palin is a disaster.
Posted by: LittleBro | October 23, 2008 at 07:42 PM
Why didn't Barry pick her then LittleBro? If he is a good judge of character, he should have picked the right VP candidate(I think you know who I'm talking about).
Let me repeat myself for you. I'm not a Republican so I don't defend McCain's policies. Again, Littlebro, it's getting to be tiring to ask you to say something positive about Barry. You have just become another Obamunist! I'm thru with you again because the Rays game is coming on soon. Do your research and lay off the Alinsky principles. I'll give you the last word because I'm gone tonight. So have fun trying to bash McCain while I ask you to prop up Barry. I triple dog dare you!
Posted by: Donald Lance | October 23, 2008 at 07:53 PM
No - your through trying to defend the indefensible. Why don't you answer the simple question? How will McCain fund his mortgage proposal without taking from one and giving to another?
Posted by: LittleBro | October 23, 2008 at 07:55 PM
Little Bro,
you are a sniveling little twirp
go burn a flag, smoke some dope, and get married to your man.
Posted by: | October 23, 2008 at 08:04 PM
You're showing your true self, Donny. It's awful being hoist by your own petard, isn't it? Here you are, reduced to whimpering and trying to sound like a very tough ninth grader. Very Palinesque.
Posted by: LittleBro | October 23, 2008 at 08:44 PM
Why is she wasting her time? Only the nuts are going to show up to the rally anyway...oh wait, that's church time so most of them should be in church!
Posted by: | October 23, 2008 at 10:40 PM
Let's all welcome Sara Failin back to the Tampa Bay area. The more she campaigns the higher the vote for Obama. If her selection was any indication of the wisdom and experience of McSame then he should not be allowed out of the house.

6:18, taking from one and giving to another is bad? How about the chairman of AIG when he left after driving the insurance giant into the ground? He got billions from the government, and gave himself millions in severance money.
That would have bought a lot of cadillacs for drug addicted welfare queens.
So welfare stinks, unless it is going to the already wealthy, right?

YOU GUYS ARE AWARE THAT THIS THING IS OVER, RIGHT??? When Bush led NATIONALLY and in the ELECTORAL COLLEGE in 2004 by less overall margin he won by a good margin. WHAT MAKES YOU THINK MCCAIN IS GOING TO WIN JUST BECAUSE YOU PERSONALLY DONT LIKE OBAMA?
Posted by: David | October 24, 2008 at 08:40 AM
Just when you think that the nightmare is over with Bush, here comes Palin. Since when is it ok to have mediocre people run this country?
Palin is continuation of the same narrow minded, religious right ignorance that is a plague in our great country. They want to bring us back to the days of medieval Europe. Filled with superstition and intolerance.

Check the real polls ~ go to congress.org ~ they have the EV poll listed.....see who is REALLY ahead in this race.

"McCain talking about morals..."
Gotta agree with you on McCain being morally-challenged. I do not recognize John McCain. Even author Elizabeth Drew who wrote the book "Citizen McCain", a positive book about John McCain, is now questioning McCain's judgment and principles due to his recent behavior!
"McCain's recent conduct of his campaign -- his willingness to lie repeatedly (including in his acceptance speech) and to play Russian roulette with the vice-presidency, in order to fulfill his long-held ambition -- has reinforced my earlier, and growing, sense that John McCain is not a principled man."

Where in the world is "JOBS" is a three letter word Joe?
Isn't he one of the five anti-American idiots in the Senate who voted against the Alaskan Pipeline.
When has Joe ever voted to cut my taxes as an everday working American. For that matter what about his sidekick?
Palin sounds grand compared to those two. We need real change in Washington not the same partisan hack game old hands like Biden and McCain played. We need Pro-American policies like the kind Palin has fostered in Alaska. What the heck has "that one" ever done beside trying to ensure that abortion survivors die in linen closets like he was informed was happening when the nurse testified in hearings before him.
Alinsky, Ayers, Wright, Farakhan, Obama

One comment on Sarah Palin ; on her foreign relations policy she said in her own words, she can see Russia from her house, well Russia is as far from her house we are to Canada actually we closer to southern Ontario in Florida than she is to Russia Wasilla or Anchorage Alaska. Enough said! Now on McCain just Google Keating and his involvement in Lincoln savings and loans it sure changed a right leaning independent like me .They both abuse their power and skirt the laws even before they get into the white house!
