1. Just what every young and dateless republican guy needed...
...for a good time tonight. They won't even watch the debate.

2. really, not embarrassing at all
i mean, she was in a competition of which this was a part. who cares and if you want to poke at her this is hardly something worth poking at...and petty to be honest.

4. *definitely* not worth poking at all
unless maybe you're her husband's business partner, or a demented presidential candidate.

3. She's attractive
Not sure why that is a bad thing.

11. Because looks are irrelevant when we're talking about the election
I don't think she's attractive because

1) she's an air head
2) she's a liar
3) she slaughters wolves and other animals and loves it

There are more reasons but I'd prefer not to go on. Not if she ends up truly a "heartbeat" away from the presidency. :puke:

So, IMO, her looks are irrelevant. I don't even notice them but then, I'm a woman. Maybe it's different for men... I dunno

:shrug:

13. For every beautiful woman...
there is a man somewhere that is tired of putting up with her shit.

Sorry, but she's not that beautiful. :shrug:

5. I'll sure make fun of her, I am of the age that I have suffered 30+ years
of constant ridicule from the other side, I don't mind a bit indulging in pay back karma, not at all.

6. It makes her sound downright ambitious
and won't damage her in the least.

It's just odd how someone with that big an interest in politics remained so utterly ignorant for so long.

I mean honestly, even right wingers are upset about it.

19. Someone on another blog described her, very accurately IMO
As Nicole Kidman's character, Suzanne Stone Maretto, in To Die For. If you've never seen the movie, it's based loosely on the story of Pamela Smart, the teacher who seduced a teenager to kill her husband. Suzanne is a vapid but extremely ambitious woman who aspires to be a major TV anchor. Not saying that Palin is necessarily murderous, but she is eerily like the character in other ways. I get the sense that Palin wants to be a celebrity with a lot of power. She got into politics in her 30s because she shrewdly realized that her ingenue days were well behind her and saw it as an opportunity to still become famous. I doubt she has ever had a genuine desire to improve the community and she's sure as shit no policy wonk.

7. my guess is that every candidate for political office did things at age 20 that seem embarassing now
She's an idiot who has no business being a major party's nominee for vice president, but the reasons for that go well beyond her participation in a beauty pageant 24 years ago.

8. How pefect is that music?

10. I hear there's a run on tissue - better stock up
Those proud young patriotic Republicans are making a run on Kleenex as we type this. If you want to wipe your ass this weekend, you better go and buy some! I can hear them fapping right now!

14. She was qualified then
for a beer commercial. That doesn't work quite the same way as politics though, where you demonstrate your qualifications, rise to a level of seriousness, and are accepted as a serious contender ever afterwards.

31. No longer available.
I hope some responsible news media brings that up. Nothing wrong with strutting around in a swimsuit, but Americans need to know the truth, the whole truth.
