The Popular Sarah Palin
By Hillary Taft - Thursday, October 23rd, 2008
It’s amazing how the media continues to do hit jobs on Sarah Palin, asking whether she’s a “drag on the ticket” even though she regularly gets 20,000-30,000 attendees at her rallies. And never mind the fact that her appearance on Saturday Night Live garnered the highest ratings for SNL since 1994. Nooo, she’s not popular…she’s a drag on the ticket…if you believe some pundits in the media who just don’t understand or get Palin’s appeal. Personally, I think she has the potential to become the most popular politician since Ronald Reagan.
P.S. If you haven’t seen it already, check out Palin’s SNL appearance. The Palin rap is especially hilarious! (”When I say Obama, you say Ayers! Obama – Ayers! Obama – Ayers!”)

I am sharing this idea on several blogs this week where others are not supporting Obama.
For the record:
I am a PUMA in northern VA
I am a Black woman
I am a registered democrat
I am one of the voters who supported Hillary Clinton in the primary
AND I am not voting for Obama-Biden.
I am so tired of hearing about Obama spending big bucks to run his infomercial on October 29th by trying to blanket mainstream television airways.
I think we need to begin to promote a “Turn off Obama-TV” on October 29th. I say – Do NOT Listen to or Watch Obama’s 30 minute commercial on October 29, 2008. Obama thinks he can MAKE us listen to what he has to say by spending all that money in order to have his commercial on several networks at the same time. We do NOT have to listen. We do NOT have to support this gimmick.
Let’s all participate in: “Turn Off Obama-TV” that night. On October 29th for that specific 30 minutes: Push mute – Turn down the sound – Change the channel – or Turn off the television. Do not listen to any more of Obama’s hot air, false promises or his lies about McCain-Palin.
INSTEAD for that 30 minutes do something else with your brain cells — (here’s a few ideas)
Watch a different tv program
Watch a DVD or video
Listen to the radio
Listen to a CD
Read a book or magazine
Play a board game
Surf the web
Watch YouTube videos
Call a friend on the phone
Play a video game
Write an email to a friend
Work on one of the word games or word puzzles in the newspaper
Play the piano (or instrument of your choice)
Do some exercising
Play a card game
Work on your family’s scrapbooks
Bake Halloween cookies or cupcakes
Work on your favorite hobby
Between now and Oct 29th – Let others know that you are choosing NOT to listen to & to NOT watch Obama’s commercial. And encourage others to join in a national response to this media effort.
Please join me by choosing to turn away from Obama’s efforts to control the outcome of this election by spending so much money on a one night media blitz.
Tell all your family & friends to “Turn Off Obama-TV” on Oct. 29th!!
