There are plenty of hockey moms in the Boston area. They don’t wear lipstick. It would just rub off on their Dunkin’ Donuts coffee cups at their sons’ 5AM practices.

The punchline should have been “A Bruins jacket”.

Pitbulls may shit outdoors but at least they don’t rape the environment.

I happen to like pitbulls and as someone else said, I’d trust one over her anyday.  
There needs to be a Pitbull Antidefamation League.

No kidding. The campaign is going on that ‘she’ll give interviews when she feels comfortable doing it.’. This was my favorite quote from campaign manager Rick Davis;“Why would we want to throw Sarah Palin into a cycle of piranhas called the news media that have nothing better to ask questions about than her personal life and her children?” Davis said. “So until at which point in time we feel like the news media is going to treat her with some level of respect and deference, I think it would be foolhardy to put her out into that kind of environment.”

If she can’t handle an interview, she can’t handle being in Washington.

Theirs is a strawman argument. The translation of their bullshit is: she’s weak on nearly all the issues and reporters will expose her for the fraud she is.
