I won't post all of the details, as you can get those by tuning to any news channel, but Gov. Palin has ALL of the late buzz this morning. I haven't been able to read all of the hundred of comments left here since I went to bed at midnight, so mega kudos to whoever found that flight from Anchorage to Dayton.
We're almost there. Put the champagne on ice and get ready for a party, we'll know for sure who gets the nod in a few hours (maybe sooner). I'm going to try to get permission to blog from the office today. No guarantees, but I have a hunch I might get it.

«Oldest ‹Older 1 – 200 of 293 Newer› Newest»Looks like congratulations are in order. Good job Adam.
Yes! Excellent job, Adam! Thank you so much for making this blog and helping rally support for Palin! As others have said, I really hope she appoints you to her staff because you really deserve it!
Drew said that we'll know for sure "very, very soon"!!!!!!
PALIN!!!!!! PALIN!!!!!!! PALIN!!!!!
McCain VP Contender Palin in Alaska, Not Ohio
Email
Share
August 29, 2008 8:54 AM
ABC News' Kate McCarthy Reports: As vice presidential speculation swirls, Gov. Sarah Palin is watching the fireworks from her home in Wasilla, Alaska.
...
But one person who will not be there: Palin. The Governor's spokesperson, Sharon Leighow, tells ABC News she's going to the State Fair in Anchorage, Alaska.
ABCNews
how the hell could all this hype end it such a letdown, I hope it isn't true
She is now number 1 on intrade by a mile. Sarah is the next VPOTUS!
check out this site...
http://blog.changeandexperience.com/2008/08/rumor-alaska-governor-sarah-palin.html
Great news. Adam you deserve credit for this. I only hope you put some money down on Sarah in Vegas last year when you began this effort.
I think the whole thing about her "still being in Alaska" is a ruse by the MSM to dampen enthuasiasm for Palin.
They're really freaking out now! Isn't it great???
I wouldn't pop the champagne yet, people are reporting she is still in Alaska
Well its a lot harder to fake air traffic control and a secretive plane flying from Alaska to Dayton than for a spokesperson to say Sarah is still in the state.
I'm sure that her spokesperson was asked to say that and the McCain camp is handling this anouncement way better than Obama.
Cautiously optimistic still!! Mac has pulled off one of the greatest political moves ever to keep the media so in the dark.
A woman, two teens, and two men flying on a private jet from Anchorage to just outside Dayton then being wisked away in vans. Who else whould that be???
Her spokesperson is doing her job and probably doesn't even know that Sarah is in Dayton alrready.
Now who would you trust with national security more? A man who releases his Vp pivk at 3 am several hours after the MSM have done so because of leaks, or the master of secrecy and fake outs that McCain has just proven himself to be. You don't grow up with an Admiral for a father and grandfather and spend 5 1/2 years as a POW without being able to keep secrets with military discipline!
Obama is a teenaged joke next to McCain.
The other way someone can find out, which was never mentioned last night was to find her son, who is supposed to be in the military training. If he has been pulled from his base and his unit, she's the pick. He won't be able to serve overseas now.
I agree, Adam B. is a rockstar!
Ack! I have to get ready for my meeting at 10! Is anyone willing to send me a text message when the news comes out? If so, send me an e-mail (in my profile) with who you are, and I'll reply.
Thanks! I'll stay around for a few more minutes, hoping something comes out.
HEY Y'ALL!
Now, why CAN'T Palin's son serve overseas, if she's our VP? After all, the British princes still serve!
Hmm..... I think we should contact Alaskan radio stations and someone in the Governor's Manse.
Then again, I don't want to blow this secret for McCain, do you?
My father-in-law called me when the news about the Gulfstream broke; I wanted to get here right away to see if y'all knew yet, but circumstances intervened. :| Still, great news; given everything, I don't put any more credence in the report that she's still in Alaska than I put weight on Gov. Pawlenty cancelling his appearances. It could be true, or it could be a smokescreen; the only way we'd actually know she was home is if someone knocked on her door with a TV camera.
Whoever it is, we'll know soon.
AOL says "new name now in mix," and her pic is now the lead one in the list of candidates.
Breaking down the passengers:
Woman - Sarah Palin
Man #1 - Todd Palin
Man #2 - Mike Nizich (her new Chief of Staff)
Teenager #1 - Track Palin
Teenager #2 - Bristol Palin
That makes sense. The other three (minus Trig) are still in school, and Sarah being the great mother she is, wouldn't dare pull those kids out of school.
WOO WOO! LONG spiel, kicking in good thoughts about Palin and WOMEN on Fox News by Andrea Santeros.
Glenn beck just said he's going to interview Sara Palin.
Supposedly her office in Alaska said that she is IN ALASKA THIS MORNING...
CNBC reports Palin is the pick.
interview THIS MORNING
Check out Sarah's wikipedia page... it says at the top that "This article or section contains information about a forthcoming election" and that editing of the article is currently locked.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarah_Palin
Interestingly enough, Tom Ridge's page doesn't say that (nor does any of the other "top contenders").
Biden's son leaves for Iraq this fall.
I am a mother of 3 and a Conservative. I wasn't too excited about Mc Cain. If he picks Sarah they will get my vote. I think it's awesome to see a mom of 5 have a chance of becoming Vice President. I am so excited!!!
CNBC reports Palin is the pick. Reporter Harwood says McCain campaign strategist confirmed it's Palin ..
YIPES!
No one has yet to discount Ridge as the possible VP!
And Fox is touting Meg Whitman at this moment.......groan!!! (But at least she's a woman----but pro-choice, right? Ack!)
Sarah Palin has tremendous buzz. I think she'll get the nod. Coverage here:
http://ronmwangaguhunga.blogspot.com/2008/08/will-mccain-pick-sarah-palin-image-via.html
CNBC confirms Palin is the pick... Top GOP strategist confirms it's Palin.
Oh gag. They're bringing up the "T" story on Fox.
I'm getting more and more excited by the news. Palin is getting a lot of press now. I can't believe the plane from Anchorage is a ruse, as some have said. Adam - great job!!!!!
Sarah's spokesperson Fiday mornaing, and it must have been very early her time, said "as far as she knows" Gov. Palin is still in the state. Since when is national security disclosed to spokes people? As far as she knows doesn't mean much, no disrepect intended just that she wouldn't be told. That's all. Anyways, its almost 7 am Alaska time, if she's not at the office sson, we know!
Yup. CNBC has it. Interesting. Drew, can you comment yet? :)
Not to worry, Erin: McCain would NEVER pick Palin UNLESS HE KNEW she'd been vetted THOROUGHLY about the Trooper mess. (Oops---you know: that T thing.....)
HEY! This might be good news, if you think about it:
NO one is saying they've SEEN Palin in Alaska; they merely quote her spokesperson.
BIG DEAL! They're probably fibbing, to keep the secret for just another 1-1/2 Hours! YIPES!
I'd better eat something or I'm gonna get an ULCER, waiting for this news.....
Sorry about the typos. I'm getting excited about Sarah as VPOTUS.
Hey all..Former Huckabee supporter here! Sarah was always my number 2 pick and i sooo hope it is her!
Kuddos to everyone here if McCain did indeed choose her as VP..she is awesome and will really shake this thing up! WTG!
FYI, almoat 6am here in Alaska, not 7. We are 4 hours behind East Coast Time
I sure hope CNBC is right!
cnbc is reporting Palin is the pick!
I have to run. Best of luck all. Regardless of the selection, it's been an honor to support a woman of this caliber and get the opportunity to interact with all of you dedicated, intelligent people.
Here are some excerpts from my most recent blog post at my blog.
"By the time this post reaches your email box, John McCain will have made his choice of VP. In fact, he is expected to make that public in a little over 2 hours from now.
One thing is certain…Romney, Pawlenty and Huckabee are definitely out. The remaining choices are Tom Ridge, Joe Lieberman or Sarah Palin. In my estimation, there really is no question here. Ridge and Lieberman are no where near the quality of Gov. Sarah Palin." go to the blog to read more.
BYE, Erin! Keep praying!
I notice the Drive-Bys are barely speaking this a.m. about The One.
It's all MCCAIN----which is so excellent!
SHE IS SO HOT!!!! I love it:)
Almost 6am. Well that means that poor spokesperson was awoken in the middle of the night to give some reporter from ABC Sarah's schedule, as far as she knew. No worries.
www.ktuu.com which is the NBC affiliate here in Anchorage has picked up the story
Rev. Rob Schenck says so
WE WIN!!!
CNN is watching the blog RIGHT NOW!!
HI CNN!N!N?
CNN is reporting on this blog!
DUDE.
"Draft Sarah Palin" was just on CNN.
Fox News just showed a picture of this blog!
I posted this in my blog - View fromt he choir. I'm a Huckabee suporter who could easily "settle" for Palin!
Pawlenty - yawn. How about Palin?
The scuttlebutt for the last couple of days is that John McCain has picked Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty as his running mate - a choice I think would be a mistake. (Pro-life, but dull, not popular in his state, the bridge collapse issue that could be thrown in his face.)
But the latest buzz is Alaska Governor Sarah Palin. Think of the spark such a choice would provide for the campaign - it would knock Obama out of the headlines.
She's staunchly pro-life and a reformer, young (44), energetic (hunts and fishes, runs marathons), athletic (led her high school basketball team to the state championship), and attractive (even won a beauty contest!). Her husband is a champion snowmobile racer who is part Native American. They have five children, the latest born just this year with Downs Syndrome. Her oldest son is in the Army and will be deployed to Iraq in September. I think this family can match up to the Obamas in the all-important "cute kids/nice-looking family" competition. The son in Iraq would trump Biden's son being deployed.
The only knocks appear to be a couple of ethical probes that actually may be politically motivated by foes trying to hit back at her for some of her actions to out corruption. Even if untrue, the media might focus on that. In addition, she has little experience (a charge the GOP has certainly aimed at Obama), and might be attacked for that. And in choosing a woman, McCain might be accused of pandering or trying to go after the Hillary voters.
We'll know later this morning. Maybe.
[UPDATE: There are news reports that neither Pawlenty nor Romney will be the VP choice, and that a private plane flew from Alaska to Dayton, where McCain is expected to announce his VP choice. Hmmm.]
The reports are troubling though. :( Ugh, after all this, it's feeling like a letdown. Sorry to be so grim about it. :(
what about the abc news report at 8:54am that says her spokesman says she is at home in alaska this morning?
amazing. i hear about Sarah for the first time yesterday from this blog. what a perfect choice to complement McCain.
The ABC reports means nothing. Her spokesman isn't going to confirm she left Alaska and blow the announcement for McCain.
Come on.
Some old guy is dissing Palin on Fox News
Nightowl - i hear ya (Bills fans right?)
This is so stressful!
Rember what Drew said, "take everything you hear this morning with a grain of salt".
Have faith.
It was 4AM in Alaska. Does anyone think that the spokesperson would know where their boss is at 4AM?
Charles Krauthammar probably doesn't know much about Palin. In fact, this is the first day where a lot of people are probably just hearing about her.
Oh yes. Bills fans wait until the final field goal. :(
It is stressful. I'm in class, but I may as well not be.
Anyone know of a place where we can watch streaming video of one of these news stations? I'd love to see the announcement live.
Sarah, if you indeed are the Vice Presidential pick, please consider a campaign stop in Auburn, New York, home town of Secretary of State William Seward, who was Lincoln's Secretary of State and the American who had the vision to bring Alaska into our country! Upstate New Yorkers (and rural Pennsylvanians) will welcome you with open arms!
Yes, I agree with boltsfan! Have faith, everyone! Palin's the one! She's gotta be! Keep your heads up!
McCain-Palin'08!!!!
I would feel better about Drew's comment if I knew who he was!
Palin is the right choice at the right time for America. Go Palin Go. Enthusiastic support from the great state of New York for Palin.
Charles Krauthammer is one of my heroes. I didn't see the segment (I was too busy flipping around the channels) so I don't know what he did or didn't say...but he's incredibly savvy and usually on target.
So if he didn't gush about her, it might be because he doesn't know her.
But he's a good guy! Honest!
LOL @ Chris. Right on. Probably the most sensible comment about that silly ABC "coverage."
I feel so VINDICATED! All of my friends and family are texting me this morning with "WOW! He's picking YOUR Alaska lady!" I'm so glad y'all have fought so hard for Sarah; she will make a fabulous VP!
*keeps fingers crossed that she's formally chosen!*
The suspense is literally killing me. Please McCain! Hurry up!!!
nighowl: me too... i just hope i don't get called on. Not paying attention AND never got that reading done last night!
Congratulations Adam. Everyone is just now catching up to you and your very supportive supporters. You need a big pat on the back.
indeed. Nobody has said that they've seen Palin in Alaska. The spokesperson just SAID she was in Alaska. It's John McCain's announcement to make, so Palin has to keep it under wraps. CNN has across the bottom of the screen "Sources report Palin is VP pick, CNN yet to confirm report."
I think it is her! I am so excited, so it better be her because my hope is too high now!
Good job Adam. You beat some of the best th bloggers with your VP pick!!! CONGRATS
All the news reports are pointing and almost confirming Sarah Palin - I hope it's her. Good Job everyone
WTF!? Joe on MSNBC is saying that McCain campaign is liying... bleah bleah bleah
I hate to ask because I know that everyone is busy...but I eat lunch with my sons on Fridays and I will have to leave at 10:45 CST.
Would someone text me (I never text, so I hope this will work)
I have made my E-mail available on my pro-file. Would you E-mail me? Once I have someone that will text me, I will remove my E-mail on my profile, so you all know that I was contacted.
I am sorry to ask, I just am so excited that it could be her.
Why are you watching MSNBC?
Joe said: "please consider a campaign stop in Auburn, New York, home town of Secretary of State William Seward, who was Lincoln's Secretary of State and the American who had the vision to bring Alaska into our country!"
Joe, read "Team of Rivals"! Wonderful read.
I'm waiting for my person to show up for our meeting (I'm learning about plagiarism detection tools--something I'm sure to use on Biden's speeches), but he's a no-show so far.
I'm glad Drew said to use salt. Must go appointment here. Fingers crossed.
Fox is reporting the plane that flew from Anchorage to outside Dayton last night is owned by a McCain supporter. Need any more proof ABC news?
Adam...cnn....looks like you might be the "rock star" of this campaign.
Fox now calls speculation for Palin "Red-Hot"
This is so cool. Hubby said he would go register to vote. (Mennonite). This is going to turn this election on its head.
Thank you Paul. :)
Update: Drudge updated (removed abc link about her being in alaska, put up CNBC link naming Palin VP!)
snowed in, you can go to http://www.andromedanet.com/tvtuner_flv1.html to watch Fox News online. I'm doing it right now while I wait to be called for jury duty. lol
Even if this goes nowhere, I feel so special to have been on here when the plane story "broke." We have some serious detectives on this site. :)
MSNBC is already smearing her "Does she pass commander in cheif" test.. bleha bleha bleha
THANK you, whoever is watching over and blocking out the snotty commenters who are trying to make negative posts here!
McCain has created such a TOTAL BLACKOUT of news about Obama's speech, etc., from last night! EXCELLENT JOB!
Chuck Todd on MSNBC (I always watch Fox AND the opposition!)
is quoting someone who warns everyone NOT TO MOCK PALIN!
I think Mccains campaign was "playing with our heads" yesterday. Now when you go to the www.mccainpalin.com site it show Mccain-Palin 2008. Yesterday it was showing everything BUT Mccain-Palin.
I hope this holds true -- this would be a landslide.. especially after the ridiculous Obama spectacle last night.
ck-
And when you go to mittvp.com or any of the other dummy sites, they all redirect back to Mcain Palin!
It's like a clue from LOST
Funny -- this is listed as one of CNN's top videos right now. Watch and smile!
http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/politics/2008/06/26/palin.on.vp.cnn
Isn't it funny that CNBC is reporting Palin as the pick and has been for about an hour but MSNBC doesn't say anything about it and its supposed political commentator Chuck Todd. So sad when the financial news or the tabloid news does better political copverage than the guys who call themselves journalists. I hope they stop their fawning and one sided coverage andthey they get their butts kicked by women voters if they try to do to Sarah what they did to Hillary!
hott spott, thank you.
And good luck getting struck from the jury. :)
Chicago Tribune reports Palin.
Congratulations Alaska from the great state of New York. Palin will make a great VP and eventually a great President.
Yeah MSNBC does Obama pass the commander in Chief test? Palin has way more years of executive experience as mayor and govenor than Obama, who has none. As far a foreign policy, Obama hasn't called one meeting of the sub committee he chairs and barely shows up to the senate. All he does is promote himself and give speeches using other peoples words.
Sarah is by far more qualified to be commander in Chief than Obama, by a country mile!
Giving a speach after a free rock concert in Germany doesn't make anyone qualified to be POTUS.
FOX NEWS is reporting that Palin’s people can not account for her whereabouts at this time.
If this news is true this will be the greates thing to happen to the Republican Party since Reagan. I am from Georgia and have been hoping and praying that Palin would be the VP nominee. I think I will go on down to the GOP headqtrs here in town and do all I can to get McCain/Palin elected if this is true. This is huge!!!!!
Hey Everyone -
Im blogging from here in Anchorage, Alaska. Of course we are VERY hopeful that the rumors are true! We LOVE Gov Palin here and we know that the rest of the country will fall in love with her to!
Right on S.B.
oops -- when I posted the link to CNN before it didn't go right to the video.
Go to http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/politics and then select
Palin: I won't be VP this time
Great stuff!
Oh boy... THAT is good...
Wow...so proud of you Adam. I've been keeping track of you since you were the stage manager in "Our Town" through your mom and Kat. You've certainly set the stage on this one! I'm excited for you and your future!
Mrs. Montel
The financial markets are always a step or two ahead of mainstream news. ALWAYS.
This is soooooo exciting! This is it!!!!!
I know America will fall in love with Palin, once they learn more about her. I know that she'll be the most popular VP ever! Heck, she'll probably even get louder cheers than McCain at the rallies!
Wow, thanks Mrs. Montel! (high school drama teacher!)
Fox is also mentioning Ridge and Whitman.
Yeah, I worry that McCain will start to feel jealous about Palin and will keep her hidden----when the best thing ever would be to get her OUT there and have her help him REV UP THE TROOPS!
Let's fill up THREE stadiums! WOO WOO!
the only thing that would make this better is if McCain wasn't on the ticket.
If he has chosen Gov. Palin, it would be the first smart thing he's done in this campaign.
Sources backstage in Dayton tell Fox News that Palin is definitely the pick.
Foxnews is saying that "all indication it's Palin"
FOX NEWS CONFIRM IT'S SARAH !!!!!!!
Fox News live is saying that it is almost a done deal for Palin -- sources close to the campaign say all indications point to Sarah Palin. This is from backstage at Wright State in Dayton.
OH Yeah! Fox news is reporting sources close to the campaign say it IS Sarah Palin. SO PSYCHED!!!
Our campaign hotline just rang. Its Palin.
The real "Hope" is making a comeback. Thank God.
LINK PLEASE??
For those of us in class who can't watch...
YES!!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!
PALIN!!!!!!! PALIN!!!!!!! PALIN!!!!!!!
God Bless all of You on the blog for helping make Palin our VP.
If this is true, and I hope and pray that it is:
John Sidney McCain III will have won the election in November, today with this selection.
Put it in the bank, Team Obama or Soetoro or whatever his real name is, just got hit with a tactical nuke.
She is the One we have been waiting for, the light has shined down....LOL
Our GOP Wonder Woman...
MCCAIN PALIN 2008
PS everybody time to get the champagne or in my case the whiskey out....Fox is confirming now
Fox just reported backstage sources from mccain staff confirm it is Palin !!
Plane from Anchorage went to AZ yesterday and connects to plane that landed in ohio. Sure seems like she is the choice. I'm so excited and calling everyone. What a let down if it is wrong. I can't wait. Buzz seems so positive. Adam rocks. FOX just said "done deal for Sarah" YEAH!!!! She's is backstage. Its Her!!!
90 minutes away from the official announcement . . . my skin can't possibly tingle for that long!
Congrats to all! I'm glad I was at least a small part of getting the word out and defending the gov during the Wooten scandal
bullmoosen.blogspot.com
I wonder how long it will take ABC news and MSNBC to report it's Sarah? Sometime after 1 pm, when they get aroound to it after they talk about how Obama blew his nose with great statesmanship around noon today. These reporters need to call themselves fan club members not journalists!
**20 months experience as governor of a less that critical state....
**No federal experience?
So.. McCain's first "presidential" decision, when he is 72nd and has cancer, is to say she is ready to be a "heartbeat" away from being president?
This will blow the strategic argument that Obama is not experienced... It looks like a copy of the Democrats strategy of giving power to a woman, and that younger leaders are better.. Hmmmm
This makes McCain look like a follower of the Democratic direction, not a leader....
FOX NEWS JUST REPORTED IT IS SARAH PALIN. CONGRATULATIONS ADAM!
News from Alaska is that Todd Palin called up his father in law and told him to make sure to watch the news today!
S.B. you are a SCREAM! It's Too True: MSNBC is right away running to a DUMB discussion about Obama's speech! Like WHO CARES!?
I saw that about Sarah's parents. I am so happy for them if this is true. How amazing. :)
The MSM is just infatuated with Obama. But once McCain-Palin'08 is officially announced, they'll have no choice but to talk about it, or they'll look really stupid!
AMAZING!!! What a great outside the box pick....
WELL DONE!
Congratulations guys. Job well done. FOX NEWS saying Palin is officially the pick for VP.
Several days I commented that if the Republicans did not choose a female running mate in this election cycle then they never would. I want to give credit to John McCain for having the guts to do what is right and fair. Whether you win or the lose the election, well that's another story.
CONFIRMED BY FOX. IT'S SARAH PALIN
Carl Cameron confirms IT IS PALIN!---"THe only person on either ticket with EXECUTIVE EXPERIENCE!" YIPPEE!
GOOD JOB, ADAM and Y'all! LOVE YOU SO!!!!!!!!!
GOD BLESS YOU, McCain Palin!
The McCain campaign confirmed Palin is the pick. Finally!!!
If she is the pick, when I get out of class I am having the biggest G&T in the world, this time out of joy. I wish we could all have one together!
CNN has said that a senior McCain rep is saying it's her.
NBC'S KELLY O'DONNELL FINALLY CONFIRMS IT IS PALIN!
WAY to GO, NBC-------LATE!
cnn confirms as well
YES! I haven't been this excited in a long time!
just got a news alert - fox confirmed
CNN is reporting breaking news that Sarah Palin is the VP candidate for the GOP and john McCain's running MAte. Go Sarah!!!! You did it Adam! Well done.
Okay Everyone,
I'm comming out of the closet because I need some serious long distance hugs. I'm Julie, Adam's mom, and his sister and I are sitting here on the couch watching it all 3000 miles from my boy.
Thanks everyone for your support and faith! We're really proud of you Adam.
Love
Mom, Dad & Kat.
GO McCain/Palin!!!
WOW. All I can say is WOW! If it is her, I hope she does as well as I think she will. Please Sarah, don't let me down...it's all about me afterall.
On MSNBC, Scarborough keeps trying to talk about the VP pick BUT Mika Brzezinski is getting ticked off that Joe is talking about who the VP might be. It's a riot!
Also, they've already started the "she does not have the experience" and "she'll never hold up against Biden in the debates".
Dude on Fox keeps calling her "Susan" Palin. :(
Doofus.
Ahhhhhhhh!!!! It's official!!!!
FOXNEWS just confirmed... PALIN IS THE OFFICIAL VP CANDIDATE!!!
CONGRATS!!!!!
I am freaking out in class! I just have this big smile.
To Adam's Mom, you must be so proud and happy. :)
Adam, I hope you get to meet Future Vice President Palin!!
Glenn Beck is even excited.
JULIE, you darlin! It's ME, from Boise! GOOD JOB, you LOVES! I bet you are SO VERY PROUD of Adam!
Hey, Adam----remember us when you work for PALIN!
If Cindy is in a car accident and becomes crippled, does the Palin family have enough money to be McCain's new family?
I've been flipping from one national cable news channel to another and they're all confirming. I am too jazzed for words! Our restless sleep and hand-wringing night is over. I'm filled with energy, instantaneously, how about everybody else? Thank you Meghan McCain, for posting my e-mail about Sarah Palin, the only VP mentioned on her blog!
Congratulations Adam. Super job.
Thank You Adam, and Drew
YES!!!!!
I'll refrain from doing the happy dance, but all signs are looking promising.
Incredible. Absolutely incredible. I would have never guessed Palin. Talk about a Dark Horse, who ends up being a breath of fresh air in this campaign.
I just hope Palin, a second year governor, can actually hold a conversation with Joe Biden, whose 36 years of senatorial experience trump McCain's by a decade.
www.ssamerica.blogspot.com
Foxnews is confirm Palin as the pick.
WooooooHoooooo!
We win. :)
Looking good John MCCAIN. Pro Life, Pro family.. We need her to beat the Marxist ticket. He has taken the Marxist off the news cycle. New energy for the GOP. Gov Palin was busy taking care of State business all week long, The media is pissed.. A lawyer ticket vs a non lawyer ticket... MCCain does not like lawyers
Congratulations once again to everyone who did hard work in making this happen.
ABC news confims it, probably last because they know Sarah as VP is bad news for their golden boy Obama. So sorry to disappoint you ABC.
Okay, Nay-Sayers:
Just check out Palin's Inaugural Address! YOU BET she can WIPE THE FLOOR with Biden!!!!!!!!!!
All the networks are reporting it now.
Yes!!
I blogged for her here and here.
- JP
Oh wow, yes, let's not forget to thank Drew!
IT PALIN FOX CoNFIRMED
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
PRAISE GOD!!!!!!
This is sooooooo amazing! McCain listened! He listened!
God bless you, John McCain!
WE LOVE YOU, SARAH!!!!!!!!!!!
This is gonna leave the Democrats speechless!
She's going to run circles around Bin Biden
You can pop that champagne now Adam, if it's not too early where you are. Maybe some sparkling juice until later! Well done. You deserve some real heartfelt congratulations for your hard work.
Glad you joined the excitement Adam's mom. You must be very proud of him. This is so great. FOX talking about this creating excitement. DEFINATELY!!! I've been all excited all morning. Just too cool. Sarah will be great and for those pooh-poohing her - she has more exec experience than Obama and she won't shrink to Biden. She is the perfect choice.
Thank you, Julie, mom of Adam! Here's one hug! Many more on the way from all of the grateful Adam admirers, I'm sure.
Yes, thank you so much, Adam!
I don't drink alcohol, but I could go down to the store and buy some sparkling grape juice or something....
TIME TO CELEBRATE!!!!!!!
McCain-Palin'08!!!!!!!
Way to go everyone! I am incredibly excited! My blog is linked as an endorsement on this blog, but this is my first post here.
I stayed up late last night and got up early this morning. It's like Christmas Day for me! This is the golden ticket and she is an amazing leader - one we need at this time in our country.
GREAT job, Senator McCain! MCCAIN-PALIN '08! WOO-HOO!
THANKS, Adam and Julie, and Thank You, too, Drew! Thanks also to Jill for posting on Megan's Blog!
Y'all are just inspirational! AS IS PALIN! WON'T this be an incredible election!?
THANKS, Adam and Julie, and Thank You, too, Drew! Thanks also to Jill for posting on Megan's Blog!
Y'all are just inspirational! AS IS PALIN! WON'T this be an incredible election!?
Foxnews confirms Palin for VP. Nice job! I really like Palin and I think its a GREAT choice!
http://kennywrites.blogspot.com
I haven't been more happy in American politics in a LONG TIME. I'm so proud of McCain. I haven't liked him EVER - but if this is any indication of how he will govern - i'm going to be happy! THANK YOU JOHN MCCAIN and SARAH PALIN - NOW LETS WIN!
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaahoooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YES!!!!!!! Now we're talking! With Sarah onboard, we WILL win this!
I hope they start churning out the McCain-Palin'08 yard signs, web banners, etc.....I WANT SOME NOW!!!!!!
I think it's a good choice. But if she is an amnesty advocate like McCain then America's is still getting screwed by the elite. Maybe McCain isn't a marxist but he is an elitist free trader and that supports communism the world around. It doesn't do anything but hurt America. The CFR still sucks. Corporations running America is not the vision of our founding fathers. McCain is pushing us toward a one world government just a Bush did. In that way he is betraying America. The fact that he said the NAU would never happen under his presidency shows that it is a real plan not some conspiracy theory like That Bush liars said. McCain still wants to import millions of cheap foreign laborers and give them amnesty so they can work in the few factories we have left and PUT AMERICANS OUT OF WORK!!!
HEY YOU LIBS
WE'RE TAKING OUR COUNTRY BACK!!!!!
Now... if they could get a bitchen logo like the other guys have - which BTW (like it or not) is the most creative and pertinent logo that any campaign has EVER had. -Rich
Can you tell me where the best site is to find out information about Sarah Palin? Background, etc? Thanks!
I'm a pro-life Conservative Republican woman (but not a single issue voter) and was a Romney supporter in the primary. I didn't know how thrilled I'd be for my party to nominate a woman VP because I always assumed it would be a pro-abortion woman. I have tears in my eyes thinking not only did McCain nominate a prolife woman, but the mother of a Downs Syndrome child. It gives me chills. Gotta go make a donation to the campaign!
Adam, I must say well done! You kept your faith in Gov. Palin when I lost mine. I'm glad I found it again before she rose to the top...
- JP
OH MY GOD!
I'm so excited!!
McCain made the right choice!
Hey, Rich----good point re. the logo. But don't you agree that Adam's creation/logo is terrific, with McCain/Palin and the Alaskan Big Dipper on it with his star??
OHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHHHH!!! MCCAIN/PALIN 08, THE ELECTION IS OVER, WE WIN!
A lot of the banners were made by Drew and PFA from www.palinforamerica.com
CNN is reporting on the "T" story
Hurray!!!!
I have been so concerned that McCain would blow the vp selection, but he came through in the end.
This is a great blog and I have linked it from mine.
Good work!
