Initially, 67% of voters didn’t have enough information on Sarah Palin to have any opinion whatsoever. But after the rush of media coverage, 53% now have a favorable opinion of her, versus only 26% with an unfavorable opinion, said Rasmussen.
The most important quote:
“Palin earns positive reviews from 78% of Republicans, 26% of Democrats and 63% [...]

The McCain-Palin campaign sent the following appeal:
My Friends,
I am honored to announce that I have chosen Governor Sarah Palin of Alaska as my choice for the Republican nominee for Vice President. As a father with three daughters, I can’t express how proud I am to choose the first female Republican Vice-Presidential nominee.

I remember coming across a way to keep the perennially dumb occupied. You simply wrote, “See other side” on a card and hand it to them.
That’s the way liberals are when it comes to America and foreign policy.
Liberal foreign policy consists in two ideas:
1) It is wrong for the United States to ever act unilaterally [...]

Let’s not shade our differences and pander.
Republicans are definitely not pro-abortion, though quite a few are just adamantly against late-term and post-term abortion.
Republicans are not in favor of affirmative action. We think everyone was born equal and can go wherever they want to go and reach wherever they want to reach. Democrats think you need a hand. [...]

Moveon.org and all of the usual suspects have jumped all over the Sarah Palin nomination. As usual, they are viewing the electorate as a series of ethnic, religious and interest blocs that need to be won over as if they were states. The fears and concerns of each group are played upon and manipulated, if [...]

The lead has shrunk again to 48 Obama, 42 McCain. Gallup has the wildest swings of any of the daily tracking polls and Obama was on his way to a huge lead. Ever since the announcement of Palin as McCain’s running mate, that lead has been evaporating.

While the hardcore Obama idiots and mainstream media try to give the impression that Palin was a terrible choice and that all of America is going to now turn away from McCain, the reality is that a sort of Palin mania is going on. Gone is the big DNC convention bump. Present is a nation of [...]

Atheists, Secular humanists, and scientific materialists constantly claim that they have science on their side, and that science invalidates religion and belief in God or the soul. But Immanuel Kant proved well over 200 years ago that the premises these thinkers rely upon are fundamentally irrationally.

Newsweek isn’t a completely in-the-tank-for liberals biased bullpoop rag. They represent “legitimate journalism.” Well, that’s the claim, anyway.
Of course, what passes for “legitimate journalism” often looks like the piece that recently emerged from the tiny little ideologue brain of Jacob Weisberg.
