After all, if you were the type of person who'd vote Palin, wouldn't you start to get suspicious when those dirty liberals started plugging her? I can see it now, a one liner utterly destroying any chance she had.
"9/10 progressives prefer Palin"
::bells tolling in the distance::
Actually that worked. Palin lost most of her appeal by, well, just by opening her mouth and letting it do its own thing.
Of course, neocons tried to say we on the left were twisting her words. No we werent. We were quoting her exactly and not even adding commentary to it. SNL didnt even have to come up with a script to parody her. They just copied what she said and it was enough to bring the house down.
Also, people who were opposed to right wing politics would say things like "Leftists for Palin 2012 - guarentee a win for Progressives in America!" all over Yahoo. Even though Yahoo is SWARMING with greedy and hateful right wing shit holes, it was still a common thing for a leftist to agree with the neo-cons that Palin should run for the republican nomination. LOL.
Example conversation:
greedy neo-con: "Youre a sexist. You dont like Palin because she is a woman"
Me: "LOL...Palin is an airhead."
Greedy bastard GOP: "You are wrong. Palin is one of the smartest on the board. smarter than Obama."
Me: "Left wingers for Palin 2012"
Fundy neocon: "You dont support Palin for President"
Me: "I want her to be on the Republican ticket...its a sure fail for you greedy bastards."

They say that anyways, and they act like that anyways...and LOL, some members on this forum actually vote for these Jesus slurping greed mongers.
Sadly, I voted for Obama...he is one of them as well.
Im not voting dem or rep next time around...Ill write in "anarchy" or something.
