Don't Misunderestimate Sarah Palin

Posted by: Jubal | 09/06/2008 10:41 AM

Whether they like it or not, Democrats better recognize that Sara Palin is helping the GOP ticket even beyond the conservative GOP base. She's attracting moderate GOPers and swing Democrats, as well.

I posted more on this topic over at Guns & Rosaries, and Meghan Daum does an excellent job of capturing Palin's effect on disenchanted Republicans.

Personally, I hope they and their allies in the media elite and Leftosphere continue misunderestimating her.

Misunderestimate? Is that like the Department of Redundancy department?

I was at the book signing for the Sanchez sisters at Martinez's book store in Santa Ana yesterday

Guess who was impressed with the addition of a woman VP?

Even in California, a staunch Democrat, has admired the A-team. How many more will jump ship before November’s elections?

Way to go "A-team" of Arizona and Alaska.

Matt’s just being cute with the English language, you know the nuns taught him better than that! (best education money can buy).

I have to say, I have been a lukewarm Republican for the last 2 election cycles, voting with the party because it was better than the other option. With the addition of Palin I am energized and excited. For the first time in years, I got emotional during an acceptance speech. Lipstick. Someone please tell me she at least helps to write her own stuff, because her delivery is dead on!

The left is definitely making the mistake of “misunderestimating” Palin, and they are going to lose the White House for it. Go Sarah!
