The early reviews are in on Sarah Palin's speech long-awaited first-ever speech outside America. From the article in the Sept. 23 Hong Kong Standard:
''She was brilliant,'' said a European delegate, on condition of anonymity.
Two US delegates left early, with one saying ''It was awful, we couldn't stand it any longer''. He declined to be identified.
She even sets cowards a-fightin' one another.
Kristen says
Silly me! I figured once McCain lost, and then she resigned as governor, that her 15 minutes would be over and we’d be rid of her ill-informed, myopic opinions.
Sigh . . . apparently not.
David Murray says
Reports are the speech lasted 80 minutes. “That’s half a Castro,” Krugman said on Maddow last night.
Yossi Mandel says
I’ve been trying to figure out if she is an innately polarizing figure, or if she is only the glass figurine through which we see clearly the polarization of our politics.
David Murray says
My two cents? She’s sexy and she’s mean. ‘mericans like that combination. In fact, it appears, they can’t get enough.
Yossi Mandel says
The sexy and the mean don’t seem to be polarizing factors, they are entertainment factors, ala Simon Cowell.
