Oh, goody. Another Palin thread. I'm going back to the beginning to catch up while I eat my lunch. (3pm and I'm just getting to eat lunch. Being in healthcare ain't like it used to be)

So.............if she gets a voice coach, will your hostile opinion toward her soften?  (As a voice instructor, I'm interested in your opinion).

I have no idea if aggravating the left is gaining any votes, but if you know anything about politics, sinkspur, you know that energizing your base is a very important part of the process.

And Sarah, hate her or not, energizes.

Nah. 

If Palin looked like Barbara Mikulski, no one would pay her one minute of attention.

True confession, sink?

She could look like Quasimodo, and thinking conservatives (like me) would listen to her.

You just gave us an unfortunate look into your priorities, my friend.   ^-^

Oh, goody. Another Palin thread.

The world is falling apart at the seams, and the nation is rotting from within, so it's a pleasant diversion to be discussing hating people for the nasal quality of their voices.    ^-^

Do you seriously think if she had to rely on her brains, she would have even been considered for the VP nod?

I mean, seriously. I remember being on TOS back when the potential VP choices were being bandied about. Every time her name came up, it was accompanied by a bunch of pictures ogling her. Her looks are an integral part of her appeal; let's not deny that.

Palin is 2x more intelligent than 'genius' Barack Obama.  Her VP acceptance speech in 2008 was incredible, even more so when it came out the prompter had failed.

Remember all of the flak she took for writing a few words on her hand?  A 20 minutes speech with 3 words written on her hand, yet the current President can't get out a complete sentence with stammering unless it's written on a teleprompter.
Trump has created a cult and looks more and more like Hitler every day.

I don't think so. When McCain chose her, no one was enthused about her, even after seeing her. It wasn't until her speech that included "lipstick on a pig" that she began to catch hold. That entire speech was well received by republicans, and put the media in attack mode.

Fair enough, but so are everyone's looks.  Go back and watch the first televised debate between Nixon and JFK.  Nixon ending up coming off as someone untrustworthy because he and his team didn't understand the dynamics of television - particularly how the lights make you look - while JFK's team did.

That being said, Palin is not just a set of legs and, ahem, ______; she has intelligence as well.

It is her vernacular/accent that irritates people because she does not reign from the lower 48. She has a Wisconsin slash folksy drawal. Northerners speak nasaly. It is because she does not tawk like a northeasterner. It took the PUBLIC awhile to accept the southern accent in politics. The media and liberals can't stand the folksy "gotcha" stuff. Down home and apple pie and having babies does not appeal to progressive communists. Her speech in general speaking to an audience- has improved but her folksy manner will never go away. Much like Willy Jeff Clinton.

No, she has a screechy voice.  Some in the Northeast, "New Yawkers", speak like that, nasally.  Most women don't notice it because most women have screechy voices.  Haven't you noticed that most comedians imitating a woman voice sound the same?  It's how most women sound to the male ear.

She was an excellent governor before McCain plucked her out of the job and the liberal media and liberal Democrats went after her......

Sure she's cute. And that's her attraction to the half of conservatives that pay attention to such things.

Otherwise, her speeches are mostly forgettable, repeating prescriptions already presented by others.

Except for the cutesy Seuss rip-off, anything memorable from her on Saturday?

People that state her voice is annoying, or she is divisive, don't "hate" her. They are merely commenting on qualities she possesses.

Accusing somebody of "hate" in such circumstances sounds childlike, as with adolescent girls--"Amy hates Julie."

Exactly!   I like her a lot.

Just wish she sounded like Maggie Thatcher or Golda Meir, that's all.

I don't hate Sarah Palin. 

But "hate" is a word thrown around very liberally around here.  Disagreement-as-hate is a tactic used by the Democrats and, increasingly, by a certain segment of the conservative movement.

It's unseemly.

it is unseemly, no matter who bandies it about.  And it's not just some of the conservatives here who sometimes use that word.
