		<description>Nah, I think she likes the sound of &quot;I can beat Obama in a race&quot; - defying history (I&#039;d meant to type &quot;denying&quot; but &quot;defying&quot; works well, also too)</description>

		<description>Maybe I am reading far too much into GINO&#039;s statement concening that she can outrun President Obama in a race. I see her metaphorically and snarkily saying that she can beat him in a presidential race. Does anyone else get that idea or is it just me?</description>

		<description>I took a look at the Runners World photos of Palin out of curiosity about the &quot;flag&quot; pose....

Now, I&#039;m very admiring of anyone who takes exercising seriously, as Palin apparently does, but I fail to see how any of those contrived poses have anything to do with the sport of running. Quite frankly, they looked more like the simpering poses of my daughter&#039;s 15 yo friends on their MySpace pages.

Anyhow....I agree. The pose with the flag was an unwarranted display of concupiscence mixed with an oddly scripted attempt at &quot;casual patriotism.&quot;  

BTW....Is there such a thing as &quot;casual patriotism?&quot; Does it consist of throwing a US flag over a chair back while one leans on it in a runner&#039;s get up while flirting with the camera man?.....I guess I&#039;m not familiar with that. We always took our flag down from the pole and folded it respectfully for storage at night.</description>

		<description>Pearl189 (@253)
I wondered &quot;what charity&quot; when I read that twi - tweet she posted.  

I think you&#039;re right.  I wish we knew where that person saw it - capture a screen shot or something.   That might be something that the &quot;other&quot; guys would be interested in (anyone other than the personel board).</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t know if this has been asked yet (I haven&#039;t read all comments), but the guv tweeted yesterday that TN would be ruling on that kid that hacked her email account.  I googled, but found nothing.  I wonder why she didn&#039;t tweet about that today.   Heck...she didn&#039;t say much at all that was significant as far as I can tell.</description>

		<description>I believe a number of people were galvanized, all right.  Galvanized into learning more about SP, and right into voting for the &quot;other guy.&quot;</description>

		<description>&quot;fiery and inspirational performances during the primary debates&quot;???
All she did was wink, say Aww Joe don&#039;tcha know, and look like a beauty pageant contestant.  Sorry, Sarah, I was not galvanized.</description>
