This stuff just keeps getting better and better and better...
Wow...
You Know, before the "Reps" Veep started to speak, I was a blank page... I must say, I had great anticipation because this was to be the counter to Hillary... And we all know the credentials that Hillary has... So in my mind, this woman that the "Reps" picked would have to be outstanding in every way...
I am sure unlike others I tried not to get caught up in what the media had been reporting all day...
I wanted to give the "Reps" pick a fighting chance...
Now you all know that I am not bias in any way but always leaning on the side of "Culture!" So from a cultural stand point, the Williams sister match-up had my attention even up until the speech began...
Needless to say, the match was great...
So after, watching one of the greatest matches in History, I was ready to cheer just about for anybody...
I know you feel me...
BUT (there is that great big bad but in the room) this historic speak began and the disappointment began to roll... My first thought was this woman does not hold a candle to Hillary... For the most part, regardless of who had won the "Dems" nomination, Hillary or Obama, they would be a great representative... One only has to look at a person's resume to see if that person adds up to the task put before them... I know that the resume does not always give the hold picture, it is just a great place to start... I have always considered the "Reps" as a party of the highest standards...
But (there is that but again) this convention has changed my mind...
I am reminded of a joke I heard years ago...
The short of it is, "Frog's with no legs, can't hear!!!"
Wow...
Check it...
Lets get right at it...
I ain't hating, just making an observation...
***Disclaimer Here: For all you haters out there, this is America and anyone who speaks there mind is merely exercising their right to the freedoms this great nation stands for... So if you don't like it, don't read it!!! Dahhhh***
As I sat listening to the speech, I began to feel like I was at a PTA meeting... I didn't get the feeling that this person talking was diplomatic or professional for that matter... I hope the watered down approach, was planned and not just the way it happened...
Needless to say, that for me the speech went down hill from there... I tried to find a pivot point from which to draw a comparison that I could build on in order to develop a story worth repeating...
Oopses...
It never happened...
The one thing that was predominate during the speech was the roaring which seemed very much orchestrated applauds after every line she spoke...
This made the speech began to sound like a late night monologue...
I guess J had better watch out, she could be taking his place soon... I was also appalled at the way the "Reps" seem to mark step with each event that seem to occur effortlessly during the "Dems" convention...
In short, they seems very unoriginal but trying very hard to stay up... If this was a real race and the two candidates had to actually run a foot race against each other, there would be no race... Obama would beat McCain hands down...
Comparing the two convention, that the graphic that comes to mind... The "Reps" know that there is no way their nominee can out run the "Dems" so they struggle to add things to the course to trip Obama up... Well Palin is one of those things that the "Reps" hope with assist in tripping up or slowing Obama down...
I don't think it is working...
My brother has PTSD military related, being treated throught he VA hospital... He talks as if he is still in the military everyday... He does not believe anyone who tells hims different than he believes, but (that but again) in his mind his facts are the true facts...
So it is all in his mind...
I think when the "Reps" say that their secret weapon is the answer-all to all their woes, I say, "it is all in their head..."
J-Mc truly has an impressive resume, but (wow, big but again) all old soldier lose a step... Their brass get dull and their uniform doesn't quite fit the same... Their song bird voice begins to wean and they lose their "nine to the front and ten to the rear..." The "Reps" are trying to use a no-name Governor of a very small populous to energize the pace-maker in their party...
Wow...
Ain't this some really exciting stuff...
Now you all know that I like to keep it interesting... I want to address some of the attributes of the "Reps" new Veep...
First of all, she claim to be able to field dress a "Moose!"
I don't know about any of you, but (man that but keeps showing up) I have seen a "Moose!"
This is a massive beast who's young are big as horses... So the idea that "Ms Veep" could barely move parts of this animal to dress it is amazing...
Need I say more???
Dahhhhh!!!
Secondly, the joke about a "Hockey Mom?"
From what part of the country was she referring too???
I know quite a few "Hockey Moms" who would take issue at this joke...
I will leave it at that...
Now thirdly, Do any of you know what a "Barracuda" looks like and is normally referred too???
The barracuda is a ray-finned fish known for its large size (up to 6 ft in length and up to a foot in width, for some species [2]) and fearsome appearance. Its body is long, fairly compressed, and covered with small, smooth scales. It is found in tropical and subtropical oceans worldwide.
Barracudas are elongated fish with powerful jaws. The lower jaw of the large mouth juts out beyond the upper. Barracudas possess strong, fang-like teeth. http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.divemagazine.co.uk/news/images/Barracuda2006SRogerson1.jpg&imgrefurlBarracudas occur both singly and in schools around reefs, but also appear in open seas. They are voracious predators and hunt using a classic example of lie-in-wait or ambush. They rely on surprise and short bursts of speed to overrun their prey, sacrificing maneuverability.
The larger barracudas are more or less solitary in their habits...
Now the slang definition is
2. Slang. a treacherous, greedy person.

Wow...
I guess if the shoe fits????
Either way, whether we dummy down or beef up, what remains the same is that we are the ones that will have to live with our decisions in the voting booth...
Wow...
Exciting stuff...
But (big fat black but in the room)
"Palin: Don't hold a Candle to Hillary Clinton!!!"
