We have to have a government for regulations, accountability, and order. We DO need to have taxes on specific things. (Infrastructure, helping people that's struggling, education, technology, etc.) Like I said, Ron Paul's foreign policy is flawless. I just think that getting rid of government and taxes isn't the answer. But we need a leader that doesn't lie and constantly change their position. I'm moving to Texas from the northwest, so hopefully I can meet him one day. He seems very honest.
Stupid cunt trying to win the minds of sports fans, putting her whore of a daughter on tv and making her own tv show. For what you may say? Political campaigns of course this bitch is power hungry and a bigot. If you people want a real President if he decides to run vote Ron Paul!
In her defense (even though I hate to defend this slug), her handlers should have done their homework and told her about the Phillies and Pirates rivalry and to not mention the Phillies. Or did one of her handlers THROW HER UNDER THE BUS, knowing she'd get this reaction? Hahahahaa!!!
@quest8899 you know i hope she does run, yep i hope she does, just to witness making herself look stupid again, because it was rather entertaining the first time
Sara Palin is always killing animals that MOST people don;t consider game or food. So why not throw her dumb ,ignorant, hillbilly,redneck,airheaded,mavericky ass in jail like Michael Vick?!
Sarah Palin has become a focal point, or validation, for stupid people. Dumb people feel validation because they can say, "stupid people do count for something, you see! there is one running for president." Stupid people then feel recognized and represented. That is exactly the story of her following.
She saw russia from her house, what kind of kook is she?
lol
and then she wanted to drill for oil , when the war was about ripping off tax payers for the rich white winged radical extremist to succeed and sell out america to the highest bidder .
oil , women, and angry whitemen pandering, lol
now look where it got them?
now they got michale steel for the flip flop party. lol
You just proved both liberals and conservatives both just point fingers at each other and talk shit to look cool. You sure have a lot of guts bashing Palin in the comment section of a video bashing Palin. Instead of just repeating other peoples' opinions like a parrot to fit in and sound cool, use your brain or shut the fuck up, otherwise you're just like her. And no one with a brain wants to be anything like Sarah Palin.
I guess she doesn't understand that PA is mainly split in half, the eastern side being the Phillies and the Flyers, Eagles, etc, and the west being the Pirates, Penguins, Steelers and everything. I just find that funny because I'm sure Erie wasn't at all thrilled with the Phillies' success
@koolneil2003 hey... remember that word is bad to say according to Palin (unless your name is Rush Limbaugh). call her the N word instead. it is more acceptable since she defended her friend Dr. Laura for saying it. she was just practicing her freedom of speech. something that does not apply to the rest of us if it offends her (unless your name is Rush Limbaugh).
I love sarah palin........she has single handedly ruined conservative america, showing the rest of the world how moronic and uneducated american conservatives REALLY are.
no matter though, they have all been voted out of office and their rediculous opinions mean nothing anymore.
Socialism doesn't work. The only way we're going to see real change in this country is by abandoning both major parties and voting for more independents and Libertarians.
And what exactly do you mean by "people like" me? You don't even know me. How can you make that call?
@theedgeinshow u suck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! bc she sucks. 1st she wants guns 2nd shes an animal killer 3rd she doenst think global warming is a problem. and many more reasons
Governor Huckabee DOES have over a decade of executive experience, brilliant ideas for the country (read his latest best selling book "Do The Right Thing" )and the same character and integrity as Palin. He has mastered all that he tries...lt. gov., gov., best selling author, political analyst and talk show host, radio commentator taking over Harvey's spots...Let's add president to that very impressive resume....Huckabee 2012!
When it is all said and done, Obama had no more experience than Palin. What hypocrites you are in saying that he had more. At least she had executive experience. Wow! I'm so impressed with him at this point...billions being spent so that our children and grandchildren will be in debt for their entire lives. Yea, really smart!
Think of it from perspective of someone from Alaska. The nearest American Professional Sports Franchises are well over 1000 miles away, in Seattle. Gov. Palin has never lived in a place in which there was a Major League pro sports team within 300 miles. Let alone having a Major League Pro team in the same state she has lived in,
Despite the inaccurate picture most of the media attempts to paint, Sarah Palin has excellent intelligence.
uhh... the standards of being a puppet on a string, an ex-beauty model to say corny things and try to warm the hearts of americans? outside of her script, she's a fish out of water... believe me, i was at the Republican National Convention this summer. luckily for your retarded arguement, i'm in no way defending obama... i don't believe in the political party system. i believe both sides, and all figures involved, are equally retarded... just, palin more-so.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Obama was a creation of the Liberal/ Socialist components of the " Democrat " Party and the media. I've yet to see an candidate who was kept in a test tube more than Obama.
If Sarah Palin runs for President in 2012 and/ or 2016, she won't be held back by the constraints of the McCain campaign. If you keep an open mind, my guess is you will have a vastly different opinion of her at that time.
hahaha, so what you're saying is that obama is a puppet figure (i'm not disagreeing with that, it's most likely true), and sarah palin is NOT? you sir, are fucking retarded. palin was the republican's ANSWER to obama, a cheap trick to get votes that didn't pan out as well as they had planned. talk about keeping an open mind... douche.
VP choices by the nature of their position have major constraints put on them. On the other hand, Barack Hussein Obama was a Presidential candidate. That made his puppet status pathetic.
If Gov. Palin decides to run for President, you will see a Presidential candidate who will be independent minded . Someone who the competition will probably underestimate. That's something they will end up regretting.
BTW, your foul language and personnel attacks aren't surprising.
neither is your bullheadedness, and ability to say one thing and do another. palin and obama, at the very most, are just as bad as one another. the fact that you are actually defending someone this blatantly stupid because you are quite obviously a republican, isn't surprising either...
I always hear you Palin-supporters try to use that against Obama...the "57 states" thing...as if that EQUALS the intellectually bankrupt remarks that Palin made in a few interviews...OBVIOUSLY OBAMA KNOWS HOW MANY STATES THERE ARE...he had a brain fart...the man was out campaigning 24/7...he corrected himself right after that, too...that is NOT the same as Palin claiming the bailout was about healthcare, not being able to name a supreme court case...and not knowing what the VP does
these massive billboards they hold up behind people really annoy me. they look too desperate and rather than thoughful of their own decisions just want to show off that they have an opinion. who cares...
some of them look brainwashed and forced to do it for candy bars. i dont know
LOL she probably still thought she was in Philly her ears were still probably ringing form the boos she received from myself and 20000 other Flyers fans on opening night
I know the hatred for the Browns and the disdain for the Indians, but since Pitt doesn't have an NBA team, how does Western Pennsylvania feel about the Cavaliers?
Erie is 96 miles from Buffalo, 102 from Cleveland, 128 from Pittsburgh, and a whopping 421 miles from Philadelphia. They've got Bills/Sabres fans, Indians/Browns/Cavaliers fans, and Pirates/Steelers/Penguins fans. But not too many Phillies/Eagles/76ers/Flyers fans. In fact, Erie is 196 miles from Toronto. It's far closer to Canada than to Philly! I guess "Hockey Mom" got confused. Now, assuming Pennsylvania was really still in play for McCain, could Palin have blown it with this?
Pennsylvania obviously wasn't still in play for them, given how much they lost by. At any rate, they lost in the eastern half of the state, not the western, where they did about as well as one could expect. The problem, perhaps, was not that she praised the Phillies, but that they didn't have her campaigning somewhere where she'd be cheered for praising the Phillies. All that work in western Pa., only to lose by getting totally slaughtered in the Philly burbs.
Pennsylvania has 67 Counties. Of these, 25 are all or mostly between the Susquehanna and Delaware Rivers, basically Harrisburg on east. Obama won 13 of those 25. Of the 42 western Counties, Obama won five: Pittsburgh's Allegheny, Erie and three others.
I live in PA, and I'm sad to say there are a surprising number of redneck bigoted hicks in this state. I used to live in Virginia, and even down there I never saw as much ignorance as I did in PA!
Thank God, however, those fools are a minority and did not have the influence to tip the scales in favor of McCain and his hick sidekick. Obama winning PA by a hefty margin was one of the happiest moments I've had. I knew right then, the election was over. Thank god Obama won, thank god.
The poor thing has been in Alaska too long and has a brain freeze. She was in NH a few ago - saying she she was in the Great NW and being booed. Obviously she doesn't know her geography and now she thinks she can run the country.
It's really no different then Obama saying 57 states. I'm not really trying to bash either one, just saying that campaigns are long and hard, gaffes happen.
Obama stumbled while talking off the cuff and immediately corrected himself. Palin had time to plan how to open her speech. His was a verbal gaffe, hers was just stupidity.
I was there!!! I KNOW everyone there love her so much. BHO supporter, think Erie boo her?? come on... shut up!! I was there and I know people lined up and waited 3 hours just to show how much we love her!!
Obama is leading on the poll - BUT 'MIRACLE HAPPENED' GOP will WIN!!!!
Historicaly the closer the election, the more the problems (JFK/W. Bush). Want to avoid another close election? See the Don't worry, be happy clip by Musicians4Obama and help it surface!
Your kidding right...booed, wow what were you listening to? Maybe your partisan rants of Obama and Biden. Stick to your talking points and enjoy the new socialist country when Obama wins.
I'm a Democrat, and I support Sarah Palin as the Republican Nominee of 2012. I know Obama will kick her ass ... hands down. I pray that Republicans nominate this woman. Obama will win in a landslide.
She'll be thinking twice about mentioning a sports team in their rival's territory, much like your dad will be thinking twice before having unprotected sex with a dairy cow to create you.
jesus christ this bitch has to be the most dumbest human being walkin this planet...im from pittsburgh so i damn sure know why she just made a serious jackass out of herself...and this is who the repubs is trying to make their VP!?...whats it gonna take for you people to understand how retarded,airheadish,no-common-sense,stupid,desprate,crazy your republican friends look?...terrorist?,socialist?,communist?,everything they said failed because its obviously ridiculous,PLEASE VOTE FOR OBAMA PLEASE!
Do I hold Palin's chunkyness against her? you're damn right i do. This woman actually had a choice. She used to be fairly decent looking. She didn't need the 5th child...
Personally, I don't think that people care. Anyone at a Palin rally is going to vote Republican, no questions asked. She simply has nothing to say, and I could care less about a 50 year old ex beauty pageant 5th runner up who's had 5 children.
The "swing voters" are the people that are listening to McCain and trying to make some sense out of it. But this stupid broad will do nothing more than bring a few more religious zealots out to vote
If you think this is going to negatively affect the polls you're downright ignorant. This video is more of a negative view on the people of Pennsylvania than it is on Sarah Palin. It just shows that they have no self-control and can't be mature. Who cares if she said "Go Phillies" in the wrong area of Pennsylvania? If this campaign is really affected by sports, pop-culture, and the clothing she wears, well then I'm embarrassed to be an American quite frankly.
wow, are you serious? she is the one that brought up sports in the first place, and booing a sports team is nothing compared to the outbursts of "terrorist" and "kill him" that were heard in other areas. give these people a break
You are even dumber than Palin herself, so just go drink a fifth and drive into a brick wall. These dumbasses in attendance are all pro-Palin, and for her to be so ignorant to have them all boo her? Shows you how stupid your savior really is. Enjoy your irrelevancy on Election Day, tards.
Thats not the issue. The issue is her continued stupidity and eccemtric behavior. No its not a big deal, but when you think about the fact that she has campaign advisors to tell her things like this. It shows her ignorance of the lower 48 states. She is an flat idiot. Geography shows us Erie, Pa is closer to Canada than philly. And they love the pirates. Mccain campaign criticized obama for going to diff cities and praising their baseball teams 2 days ago. Her and her campaign are idiots.

Heard some boos, heard a lot of cheering.

If McCain is looking to win PA, he may want to avoid sending Palin there.

So were you the one person in Erie who voted for her? Loved how Obama stomped those two Mavericks in PA.

Historicaly the closer the election, the more the problems (JFK/W. Bush). Want to avoid another close election? See the Don't worry, be happy clip by Musicians4Obama and help it surface!

I'm a Democrat, and I support Sarah Palin as the Republican Nominee of 2012. I know Obama will kick her ass ... hands down. I pray that Republicans nominate this woman. Obama will win in a landslide.

She's got to understand the region. States while together in some issues are usually very split in sports loyalty.

Palin wants to the leader of the Republican party in 2012. As a Democrat I am ecstatic and I hope she runs then and in 2016, 2020, 2024 . . .

JakeHalsted 3 years ago
Personally, I don't think that people care. Anyone at a Palin rally is going to vote Republican, no questions asked. She simply has nothing to say, and I could care less about a 50 year old ex beauty pageant 5th runner up who's had 5 children.
The "swing voters" are the people that are listening to McCain and trying to make some sense out of it. But this stupid broad will do nothing more than bring a few more religious zealots out to vote

If you think this is going to negatively affect the polls you're downright ignorant. This video is more of a negative view on the people of Pennsylvania than it is on Sarah Palin. It just shows that they have no self-control and can't be mature. Who cares if she said "Go Phillies" in the wrong area of Pennsylvania? If this campaign is really affected by sports, pop-culture, and the clothing she wears, well then I'm embarrassed to be an American quite frankly.

wow, are you serious? she is the one that brought up sports in the first place, and booing a sports team is nothing compared to the outbursts of "terrorist" and "kill him" that were heard in other areas. give these people a break

You are even dumber than Palin herself, so just go drink a fifth and drive into a brick wall. These dumbasses in attendance are all pro-Palin, and for her to be so ignorant to have them all boo her? Shows you how stupid your savior really is. Enjoy your irrelevancy on Election Day, tards.

Thats not the issue. The issue is her continued stupidity and eccemtric behavior. No its not a big deal, but when you think about the fact that she has campaign advisors to tell her things like this. It shows her ignorance of the lower 48 states. She is an flat idiot. Geography shows us Erie, Pa is closer to Canada than philly. And they love the pirates. Mccain campaign criticized obama for going to diff cities and praising their baseball teams 2 days ago. Her and her campaign are idiots.
