Can Palin QB For GA GOP?

When Sarah Palin goes to Georgia next week to stump for GOP Sen. Saxby Chambliss, her opening stop will be in Augusta (Richmond Co.). Even though Democrat Jim Martin carried Richmond by more than 63% on 11/4, getting a look at the first female GOP VP nominee has gotten folks excited, says Sherry Barnes, the chair of the Richmond Co. GOP.

"I've already had people calling wanting tickets. Phones have been ringing off the hook this morning." The event could draw close to a thousand people, she says. It's likely to be held at one of the Augusta-area airports, although logistics are still being worked out.

Palin, who is making several stops in Georgia on Monday, was credited with energizing Republicans this cycle, so having her campaign with Chambliss on the eve of the vote could help boost GOP turnout. While announcing the trip this morning, Chambliss said in a statement, "I was thrilled when I got the call that Governor Palin would be able to make the trip to Georgia to campaign with me the day before the runoff election." But does it help Palin? On the one hand, she'll get back into the news cycle and will be doing her part as a Team GOP player.

But going forward, it might be difficult for a cheerleader to play quarterback. Then again, it has happened before.

Does she ever do real work?

She loots campaign and buys designer clothes. She pardons a turkey and then talks cr*p while a turkey is being butchered right behind her. She is an attention grabbing pathetic politician. GOP needs people like Mitt and Rudy and not b*mbos like her.

WE HAVE MORE TO DO:

Democrat Jim Martin is in a runoff against Bush Republican Saxby Chambliss for the Senate seat from Georgia. Bush's Saxby Chambliss voted against spending a few measly dollars to provide health care coverage for Georgia, and Americas needy children. But he supported wasting hundreds of billions of your dollars, and the life BLOOD of Americas finest on an unnecessary war in Iraq.

At a time when 47 million of you have no health insurance coverage, and over 100 million of you with insurance are just one major illness away from complete financial destruction. Bush and Saxby Chambliss voted to make the heart break of bankruptcy relief even harder for all of you to use.

You see, Bush and Saxby Chambliss, and his family don't have to worry about their health care coverage. They have the finest health care coverage your tax money can buy for them. Courtesy of you. The American Tax payer. In fact, no one but the super rich can afford the health care coverage you the tax payer provide for Saxby Chambliss, and his family for FREE! with your tax dollars.

He supposedly works for you. But he doesn't think you and your family should have access to the type of taxpayer supported FREE health care that you provide for him, and his loved ones for FREE!. Doesn't that just make you BURRING MAD!

Vote for JIM MARTIN for US senator from Georgia. Vote for JIM Martin who will be on your side. Vote for JIM MARTIN who will work with President Obama and a majority congress for you. Vote for JIM MARTIN most of all for your-self, your family's, friends, and loved ones. Vote for JIM MARTIN for a better America, and a better World.

Don't let Saxby Chambliss make a chump out of you by tricking you into voting against your own best interest. Saxby chambliss is NOT! on your side. He's not one of you. He is on George Bush's side. And we all know what a catastrophe the Bush Chambliss administration has been the past 8 years.

Contact all your family and friends and do every thing you can to see to it that JIM MARTIN and GEORGIANS! take that senate seat back for Georgia, and America. No matter where you live in America. This is important to you. President Obama will need all the help, and power you can give him to try and fix this catastrophic mess that the Corrupt Bush Chambliss administration has created.

As I said before you will have to vote in overwhelming numbers to overcome the Bush Chambliss "Let Them Eat Cake" vote fraud machine. Vote early if you can. Then help everyone you can get to the polls and vote for JIM MARTIN. You and your loved ones don't have to be Saxby Chambliss's victims anymore.

I know you will get it done. Just like you did for President Obama.

God bless all of you

jacksmith - WORKING CLASS... :-)

Way to go Sarah, you are the right stuff.

Blessings for not killing Trig.

Thanks for your support in keeping us safe for the
past 8 years. Glad we did not need to fight terrorists in Atlanta, LA, Phoenix or any other American city.

Hey Jack, good luck on your free health care, in case you have not heard nothing is free. It is a shame you cannot manage your personal finances and must rely on others to bail you out.

Keep dreaming of a free ride.

Yep. Sarah Palin, as mayor of Wasilla, was keeping America safe 8 years ago. Wasilla is close to Russia after all.

QueenSarah has the hots for the media, especially Fox's GretaGurl!

I hope the GOP has QueenSarah on every POTUS ticket for the next 20 years. Palin will be on the losing side of each and every Federal level office she runs for.

QueenSarah is a fraud!

Republicans made the mistake of thinking Obama
was a political lightweight, too inexperienced, and
without a hint of foreign policy knowledge to be a
serious threat to Senator Clinton.

Those assumptions of his liabilities proved to be
true but millions of swooning voters could care
less and looked past his liabilities to get the guy elected.

Democrats, seemingly, are making the same mistake
believing that Palin will be nothing more than a
footnote in American history by 2012-- a conclusion
predicated on two or three miscarried photo ops and
the inane belief that the woman is dimwitted.

She's already accomplished something no candidate
who ran for and lost a national election has ever
achieved: with less than three months to get in
the game, she has become the most sought-after
interview in the World (Obama has already overexposed
himself) with at least 200 requests for interviews
around the world and 800 requests for the next
13 months.

Palin will be counselled (doubtless by Henry Kissenger
who will give her a post-graduate in Sino-American
and Russo-American Foreign policy (particularly
with respect to the crisis in Georgia).

Her $7,000,000-$11,000,000 book deal suggests
she will havea book at the top of the New York Times
Bestsellers for 6 months to a year. As we've all seen,
whether it's "Profiles in Couirage" or "Dreams of my Fathers"
a well-timed book can rehabilitate a candidate's reputation convincinly.

Doubtless, Palin will log frequent flier miles
on the "Rubber Chicken Circui"t (much like Nixon
worked to great success after losing an election
for Califirnia's governor. There is little doubt that
at least for the next year that she will squeeze in
what seems like an endless number of political dinners
and giving speeches at fundraisers to shore up the
election chances of republican as she will be doing
Monday morning in Georgia. When Saxby Chambliss
wins the runoff, it will not go unnoticed that Palin
rode in at the 11th hour to deal Obama his first bloody
nose as the president elect: Obams's administration
will have been denied a filibuster-proof legislature,
the only obstacle left in his path to thwart his
potentially injurious programs and agenda.

At the end of the day Palin will be the go-to-gal
when a Republican is fighting for his or her political life.

Governor Palin has already been credited with pulling
Dan Heller out of the fire in Reno's second district.

So yuck it up libs. Sarah Palin has already risen
like a Phoenix from the ashes to prove she thrives
on the contempt of her critics, and as ignorant as
libs believe her to be she is about to hand Obama
his first significant political defeat as America's
future president.

Bummer.

Mr John Carpenter must have forgotten that Obama/Biden beat McCain/Palin by well over 8,000,000 votes.

How in the world you go from being down 8Million votes to "beating" Obama with a Senatorial race in the deep deep racist South is something only your shrink can finger out.

Liberals will massacre QueenSarah when she runs for a Federal Office!
