You know that satan thing reminds me of a shirt idea I had:

"I voted for the Lesser of Evils". And the shirt shows Satan dressed in political attire.

Here's the text of the speech:

Palin in undelivered speech for UN protest: Ahmadinejad dreams of Final Solution

Edit: Wrong speech! Sorry.

Had there been 25 people they would have still said 60,000. Its all smoke and mirrors at this point, poor Obama, he should have been a woman.

In your dreams and those of the other obamaphiles here. What is your evidence that the numbers are wrong? And from your (partisan?) point of view are the Obama crowd numbers always totally accurate and just the Republican numbers inflated?

Level playing field, deny hypocrisy.

LOOK WHO SHE'S DRAWING!!!

Having lived in FL, let me tell you that every rich republican from the east coast retires there. So she went to a republican retirement community and pulled 90% of it's dying and crippled residents.

WHAT A ROCKSTAR!!!!!!!!

www.miamiherald.com...

Here is what the Miami Herald, a "Right" minded newspaper, said about the event:

"Palin made her Florida debut in The Villages, one of the fastest-growing retirement communities in the country and a treasure trove of Republican voters. President Bush put it on the map when he campaigned here in the homestretch of the 2004 campaign."

Can we find any MSM reports of the numbers of people??? Lets see her draw a crowd like that here in Seattle. Thats like sending Barak to San Fransico and being amazed at the crowd that turned out.

edited for grammer.

I'm confused. Your upset that Palin gave a Republican based speech to Republicans? Does Obama exclude Democrats at his events or something? I always thought that when campaigning that you speak to your base which is exactly what she was doing.

And why are people questioning how many people were there, are you jealous that someone other than Obama can draw crowds? Are you going to be surprised when McCain+Palin get more than 60,000 votes in November?

Now I agree 100 percent with that. I am sick of this election, and I dont care. Blah! When I turn on the news and have to hear this crap over and over and over and over....I say make Bush 'King" and we can go back to our lives.

Exactly. It gives them something to talk about. It was huge today on Limbaugh and the Jeff Katz show. They discussed two major things:

1) Palin out performing Obama on gathering a crowd.

2) SNL ripping into the Palin family.

Now, while I am sure both are great for ratings, neither has anything to do with politics. They neglected to mention that Palin was speaking in a retirement community full of conservatives; while Obama spoke in Charlotte a town lacking liberals (it's a swing state for him).

It's not taking anything away from Palin - 60,000 is an enormous crowd and it is something to be excited about. But it's just dirty to compare the two as if there were any similarities.

As far as SNL, I'm not going to defend it, but it's SNL. The show that brought Will Farrel into the world. A liberal show that is known for pushing buttons. Obama should not have to apologize for that. Rush Limbaugh says crazy stuff every day, and I don't expect McCain to be accountable for him.

Also, I don't remember any of these conservatives speaking out for the Spears family when they were attacked for Jamie Lynn getting pregnant. Everyone accused them of being a terrible family, leading to her pregnancy. Bill O'Reilly comes to mind.

Last, they keep saying that liberals say that anyone who doesn't vote for Obama is racist. They said it over and over today on both Limbaugh and the Katz show afterwards.

It's a ridiculous statement and a blatant lie.

It says both.

That spot was chosen

Not saying that was wrong. It was strategic.

If the reported number of "60,000" is from the McCain camp, this is just complete BS. They have lied about numbers at their gatherings continually. McCain is nothing more than lies, lies and more lies. When is this country going to wake up? Thanks, but NO THANKS1
