And Sal, filthy, opportunistic liar that she is, conveniently fails to mention: (1) that "awhile back" was shortly after McCain made his announcement, when Palin was getting a rapturous reception from McCain's Christian conservative base and even some previous Hillary supporters, and Democrats generally were *terrified* that his choice of Palin might put him in the White House; and (2) that I said from the beginning that she wasn't qualified and that McCain hadn't vetted her properly--i.e., that she was, as Klein says now, "a gimmick." It's only in retrospect, after she disgraced herself in interviews, was revealed to be a liar, and her past record was thoroughly exposed, that polls began to show she was, in fact, a disastrous choice. Earlier polls had suggested, and Democrats feared, that she was, in fact, a game-changer. Oh, and Sal lies about my "believing in aliens" as well. She knows that's not true either. It's funny how many people here are complaining lustily about McCain's and Palin's lies about Obama, insisting they're "desperate," yet have absolutely no problem lying repeatedly about raunchydog and me because we don't support him. ----- --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Sal Sunshine <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On Oct 15, 2008, at 5:45 AM, TurquoiseB wrote: > <snip> > > We should also remember that the person who has > > at this point a 14-point lead in the polls is the > > very person that Judy joined the Clinton campaign > > in describing as "unelectable." > > Yep. Another way of subtly reminding people--as if > maybe they'd missed it, "Hey, he's Black!" Yay! Sal joins the race-baiting contingent on FFL, happily supporting the guy who claims what is obviously an illustration of Obama based on a well-known photo of Fred Astaire is actually meant to suggest Stepin Fetchit. You can't make this stuff up, folks. The moral and ethical degeneracy of the most fervent Obama supporters here gets worse by the minute. You'd think they were afraid Obama was going to lose. ----- --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Sal Sunshine <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On Oct 15, 2008, at 1:39 PM, curtisdeltablues wrote: > > >> > >> Judy can defend herself on this one if she wants > >> to bother but please,IMO it was a clever pick.

The point, stupid, is that a good portion of the Republican base *never liked McCain*, and there was serious concern about whether there would be a decent turnout for him. There was a huge rise in enthusiasm among the base after Palin's nomination was announced. That's why raunchydog used the word "energized," dimwit. Make that dimwits, plural. Curtis didn't know those very basic facts either, but at least in his ignorance he wasn't snarky about it. Sal, as she usually does, waved her know-nothingness aloft like a flag.
