Freeper analysis of Palin's SNL performance - Funnier than SNL!
Edited on Sun Oct-19-08 12:09 AM by kirby
The following was just posted on the Freeper site. It is funnier than SNL.

"SHE WAS SENSATIONAL---BUT NOT FOR ANY THING SHE SAID- When she walked by Tina Fey on stage-well- the best way I could put it her admirers is - it was as if Ronald Reagan walked on stage and passed an imposter. The image was day and night- In that instant, the caricature was wholly undone by reality.

And the look she gave Tina was priceless- it wasn't mean, or nasty, or dirty- the best I can say is that it was a pleasant, but resolute look--the force of which sort of propelled Tina off the stage.

Most significantly, to us, when Gov. Palin looked into the camera, one could see she was every bit a trained professional media person. The camera loved her, and she loves the camera.

It's neglgent of the McCain campaign not to allow this woman to give a primetime address to the nation.

This guy called it a week ago--he said, if he were a Democrat he would not want her any where near SNL. Richard Greene, a communications experts, said this: "She is so charming and so media savvy. When she has a script, she will completely seduce America."

He was right on---get her on national tv and change the momentum of the election. "

3. ROFL - When all else fails, invoke Reagan.
The typical Republican mantra.

Man, if ignorance is bliss, that guy lives in a perpetual state of euphoria.

He was playing a role for eight years.

9. "When she has a script, she will completely seduce America"
LOL!

She had about 5 lines. Not one of them punch lines. Not one of them funny.


SNL handled her with more kid gloves than the McCain campaign does.



My wife... 41 year old, white, registered Republican, career woman... who SHOULD be the Demographic that Palin appeals to... cringed and said it was awful, that it made her look bad.


As someone said in another thread.... she was a prop. She had no funny moments. Some funny moments AROUND her, but none BY her.

27. It's a crossword - reads the same vertically and horizontally
I noticed that their names aligned nicely and made the best I could with what I was given to work with. To me it means "add me as a supporter"; "Yes we can"

Projecting through the Screen Rich Lowry

A very wise TV executive once told me that the key to TV is projecting through the screen. It's one of the keys to the success of, say, a Bill O'Reilly, who comes through the screen and grabs you by the throat. Palin too projects through the screen like crazy. I'm sure I'm not the only male in America who, when Palin dropped her first wink, sat up a little straighter on the couch and said, "Hey, I think she just winked at me." And her smile. By the end, when she clearly knew she was doing well, it was so sparkling it was almost mesmerizing. It sent little starbursts through the screen and ricocheting around the living rooms of America. This is a quality that can't be learned; it's either something you have or you don't, and man, she's got it.

19. I loved what KO said about Lowry's review: "It was bad enough that
Lowry masturbated to Palin on tv, but did he have to tell us about it?"

Edited on Sun Oct-19-08 12:02 AM by tigereye
she stood there and looked charming, but the effect was basically the same.


Being charming isn't enough.

Right... because there was no script or anything to follow.

I don't know what the fuck she was thinking.
