I just love her movies and after reading more of your blog I would love to invite you, Mr. Baltake, up to Alaska for our next Moose Hunt. We could hunt moose by day and discuss Sandra Dee movies over S'mores at night.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18439960.post-87942543324626185092008-09-17T13:00:00.000-04:002008-09-17T13:00:00.000-04:00Could be a lot worse.

It seems to me that the only thing she's energized is the media. I agree.

She came on so strong that she's nearly a parody of herself. I really don't know what SNL can do to top what she's already done herself. I mean, mooseburgers!

In fact, the only comments that I've heard from people around me is that she's scary. All we get is the media's hyping of her and only because the media considers her to be good TV.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18439960.post-45354597593053624962008-09-11T20:10:00.000-04:002008-09-11T20:10:00.000-04:00I seriously doubt if McCain actually selected her....I seriously doubt if McCain actually selected her.

Personally, I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that McCain was irresponsible in naming her his running mate. God forbid--what if something does happen to him and she's in place???Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
