McCain - Palin Rally in Cincinnati

Our gal Kevlarchick sent me a few pics her sister took when she was at the McCain - Pally rally in Cincinnati yesterday. Her sis mentioned she got there about 3 hours ahead of time, which put her right up close to the plane. After the rally they got to shake hands with McCain and Sarah, the families and the rest of the entourage.

Here's the First Dude (a nod to the ladies first)

kevlarchick mentions her sister got to see Todd up close and shake hands, and passed along her comment "WOWZA!"

heh.

Piper autographing, something. What a cutie.

And thank you KC, for sending them.

And thanks for sharing, Kevlar.

4 The First Dude needs to master the politician's handshake. A "regular guy" shake will leave your hands bloody at the end of a long receiving line. Look at how McCain does it, more of a clasp.

5 Raise your arms up John, raise 'em up so everyone can see you. Oh what am I talking about.  God bless 'em.  Everyone raise your arms up for John McCain.

6 Hmmm, we have to get McCain elected, just so the ladies will have more opportunities to see the First Dude in suits...yummy...

My wife thinks I am better looking than the First Dude.  I think she is lying to me.

16 It's somewhat frustrating at times that this woman and her family are portrayed as a drag on the campaign. It would seem the media (Katie Couric) only have sympathy when you drown your 5 kids.

17 Well, hello there Mr. Secret Service Guy, how you doin'? 

Piper!  I do adore the little Firestarter.  Adore and, you know, fear. 

Mrs. and Mr. Vice President to be sure are a fine looking couple.

18 At the risk of semi-thread hijacking here- what the fuck is with the MSM (rhetorical question)? Have they put down the cock they normally smoke and picked up crack?

the point- the latest meme being floated is that Palin is a drag on the ticket, there's all these nifty polls what prove it and stuff, oh geez oh geez don't look over at the hairplugged nitwit with gleaming blue teeth jabbering like a bag lady...

This post, and a post I saw over at a puma site (http://riverdaughter.wordpress.com/) showing Palin's speech in Nevada put the ever loving lie to that horseshit, resoundingly. Not only the clip, but the commentary following over there.

This is not a new sentiment by any means, but I have never seen such a gaping divide between what the cocksucking asswipe donkeyfucking media is saying and what actually is.

This is surreal shit, man- and I haven't even eaten any 'shrooms.

Cocksuckers.

FWIW Senator Blow Biden was in Charlotte today and spoke to an underwhelming estimated crowd of 500....let me retype so you know it's not a typo, 500 saps supporters. 

If Gov Palin showed up to a rally with that type of response, the "drag on the ticket" narrative would be looped 24/7. 

There is NO DOUBT that this VP selection has/will play more into this election than any other in my lifetime.  Gov Palin is creating a "drag" on the ticket.  She is "dragging" Senator McCain towards a victory.  The only question is, is her popularity enough to "drag" him and his center/center/right views past The One? 

Posted by: The Hammer at October 23, 2008 01:38 PM (P89vv)

21 Uniball,

Have you ever said, "Of course that doesn't make your butt look big!" or "Honey, I think that haircut looks fantastic on you! Really frames your beautiful face."

Same principle.

 True love. Can't put a price on it.

JTUPAO,

I think they mean "drag" as in "an awesome boost."
Because that's what the Palin choice did for me and many people I know.

The Secret Service guy is HOT.  And I bet he's packing something equally beautiful.  mmmmm. 

Two planes.  One was for the candidates, the other for the press. 

All the Palin kids were on the tarmac, except for the baby.  It was likely past his bedtime.  Dave did not post the pic of Palin getting off the plane--it was a little blurry. 

Girlfriend got LEGS.  Dang.

Piper....how cuuuute!!  (Hey kid, who paid for that marker you're using? HUH?)  

I'd love to hear how the rally went.   I was born & raised in Cincy.  Love me some Buckeye State!

25 Great photos, this couple rocks. Thanks for sharing this with us all.

I just finished watching a Sarah rally in Troy, Ohio livestreamed on FoxNews.com.
Sarah was great, as usual. Her stump speeches are getting even better lately. The crowds don't just applaud, they ROAR! I would also add that the RNC money for her wardrobe and her family was well spent. She is so beautiful, and unlike bitter lib women, when she talks she gets more lovely with every word, smile, and yes the winks too. There are no expensive necklaces on her I noticed. No Pelosi pearls, no Couric diamonds. That necklace Couric wore to the comedy dinner is worth more than Sarah's wardrobe and her house and their Piper Cub plane put together.
Damn, I love this lady. Keep it up Sarah, we need you!

29 I know what Piper's signing, for the very good reason that I'm a Southern California sports fan, and the first time I saw something like that was during the Angels' run up to their 2002 World Series win. That, ladies and gentlemen, is a THUNDERstick!

Which reminds me...I thought, and I think just about everybody thought, the Giants had the Angels beat in Game Six. The Angels clearly had a different idea. Never ever give up.

32 Todd is dreamy.

Palin was at a rally this week and introduced Piper and others to the crowd. She got the loudest cheers! She just stood up and waved like its been happening all her life. Too cute.

33 At the risk of saying something that will be misreported as paedophilia by the LSM, I think The McCain people are making a HUGE mistake in the way they are managing Piper Palin.

She ought to be on her own tour.

I think I was struck first by her obvious leadership in a hostile environment when she signaled her family to stand up and receive  the accolades at the convention.

And the momma-kitty-licking of Trig's hair is priceless.

I don't often say this sort of thing, but I do wish I was, what 60 years younger.  And a whole lot braver than I have ever been around impressive women.

Naw, it's probably just about right. She looks like she could look up at you sweetly, incant some ancient verse in Latin, then suddenly something- or someone- just behind you explodes in a fireball. I have a sneaking suspicion that McCain will be saving her as a special negotiating tactic with the Norks.

 "..the latest meme being floated is that Palin is a drag on the ticket, there's all these nifty polls what prove it and stuff, oh geez oh geez don't look over at the hairplugged nitwit with gleaming blue teeth jabbering like a bag lady..."

They're over-sampling Democratic voters and Democratic voters actually hate her more than they hate McCain.  That's what's going on.  The Dems have lost their minds this year.  Not only do they hate Palin with a firey passion, but they also hate "Joe the Plumber" of all people!  It's bizarro world. 

Bush had to win a disputed and contentious election, start an unpopular war and screw up the public perception of the fed's response to Hurricane Katrina before he garnered the same level of vitriol Palin is experiencing now.  What exactly has Palin done to these people to make them fear and loathe her so much? One thing that really gets me about the lefty's Palin hate is that Palin hasn't governed like a social conservative.  That is, she hasn't imposed her personal values on the people of Alaska.  (If they hate Palin, they should be burning people folks like Huckabee in effigy.) Her primary focus as a governor has been on reforming the system and stamping out corruption. If these jackasses actually practiced what they preach they'd be hailing her, not trashing her at every turn.  The UnDemocratic Party is such an ugly shameful mess.  They're overrun with mindless partisan hate and populated by brainwashed Brownshirts.

37 And I'm sure the illuminati MSM wants us to see this as a gross expenditure of campaign money.  I mean c'mon, that plane!  Those two are perfectly capable of walking across the nation, maybe by train.  It must have cost as much as Palin's wardrobe by the reaction the clothes we saw from the MSM.

Whichever social class you are in, it is naturally Rolex was known breitling Watches and cherished breitling watches for a long time. However, the elements do not usually enter the market alone, always come with the price tag up to the hand. For this reason, many people, especially men, their dreams of luxury Rolex watches are buried in omega Watches his heart omega watches. What should I do? Rolex watches are simply stunning worn by the rich and famous, right? No, this world is not the world's richest men, is the world of each.

The Oyster tag heuer Watchescase was an tag heuer watches innovative design to eliminate these problems. It had a new double locking crown that screwed into place. It has been compared to the hatch on a submarine. Like a submarine, the Oyster case was waterproof. In 1927 Mercedes Gleitze swam the English breitling Watches Channel breitling watches . Before she set off she was presented with a Rolex Oyster. When she arrived, the watch was still working perfectly. The resulting publicity gave the new case a massive boost. Why is it called Oyster? Legend has it that Hans cartier Watches Wilsdorf cartier watches, who invented the Oyster, chose the name because the new case reminded him of the difficulty he had experienced prising open oysters at dinner.
