Back in October Last, Sarah said if

she had her way, the McCain campaign and the Republican National Committee would not be flooding battleground states with automated phone calls tying Barack Obama to former radical William Ayers, as they have done over the last week.

Several top Republicans, including Senators Susan Collins and Norm Coleman, have condemned the tactic. Asked about those criticisms, Palin at first dismissed the matter as "inside baseball stuff" and said it's "some of the campaign top brass’s call on that."

But when asked if she would approve the use of robocalls if she were running the campaign, Palin said she’d probably chart a different course.

She went on to say

"If I called all the shots, and if I could wave a magic wand," Palin said, "I would be sitting at a kitchen table with more and more Americans, talking to them about our plan to get the economy back on track and winning the war, and not having to rely on the old conventional ways of campaigning that includes those robocalls, and includes spending so much money on the television ads that, I think, is kind of draining out there in terms of Americans' attention span.

"They get a bit irritated with just being inundated," she continued, "and you're seeing a lot of that of course with the huge amounts of money that Barack Obama is able to spend on his ads and his robocalls also."

However, in October Now, Sarah is singing a different tune:

If you live in Virginia the next phone call you receive is liable to say the following:


“Virginia, hello, this is Sarah Palin calling to urge you to go to the polls Tuesday and vote for Sarah’s principles. The eyes of America will be on Virginia and make no mistake about it, every vote counts. So don’t take anything for granted, vote your values on Tuesday, and urge your friends and family to vote, too.”

Interestingly enough, The Repbulican candidate says he knew nothing about these calls, he had requested that Sarah not participate in his campaign and the calls are being financed by something called the Virginia Faith and Freedom Coalition.

A few days ago I would have said that robocalls didn't ever work....today I've changed my mind.

I wasn't going to vote tomorrow, frankly I don't like either candidate all that much and The Rep. pretty much had a lock on it anyhow, but Sarah's right for once....I AM "irritated enough." Tomorrow I'm voting for Creigh Deeds.

Thanks, Sarah, for reminding me of my civic duty.

You're only voting because Sarah Palin changed her mind about robocalls?

THE DIFFERENCE A YEAR MAKES:

A year on from a historic election, the spirit of popular goodwill that yielded America's first black president has retreated to tepid support for Barack Obama as he presses his change agenda.
Since the November 4 poll, Obama's visage has been everywhere, conspicuously on the streets of the nation's capital where millions of foreign and domestic tourists have visited over the past year, many of them snatching up poignant souvenirs.

A quick look around downtown Washington confirms that the Obama trinkets are still for sale, but more than one strategically placed street hawker have found little point in displaying the T-shirts, posters, and "Yes We Can" buttons bearing the new president's image.

"They stay in the truck," grumbled a vendor who identified himself as "Dick," as he pointed to a rusty vehicle behind him. "They don't sell anymore."

Indeed, Obama's honeymoon with the American people lasted less than six months.
One year on, Obamamania gives way to luke warm support

No, I'm voting because she urged me to - and she urged me to vote "her principals" as if I didn't have any of my own.

As she said in her robocall - every vote counts and if enough people remember their own values and reject her and her hypocritical ones maybe Deeds really CAN win this one.

I hope someone asks me why I voted this time, I really do.

I kinda feel sorry for McDonnell - he turned her offer of "help" down in the beginning of his campaign and he had very good reasons to do so - I guess the Rogue in her wouldn't let her honor his request. Or maybe she just thinks she's more popular than she is.

Did you actually get one, or is this more bull**** from you?

Sarah Palin
Nobody in politics during my lifetime has generated so much hate and fear into that filthy world of the politician liars, cheats and crooks as this women Palin has done God what a threat they must see in her, this women did nothing but smile and walk out onto a stage and immediately she recieved a twenty minute standing ovation that alone was enough to set those Phony Democrat Bastards on fire, the very next day a team of their best scumbag hit men were up in Alaska going through the Palin familys garbage bags in the middle of the night.

We often hear in the media and right here on this forum how terrible it is mention the politicians children but they sure didn't let that bother them with her kids, that creepy old fool letterman ruined his career try to insult her.

I don't know if I would vote for this women or not but it sure will be fun to watch her send millions of Liberal Dingobats running to their Shrinks.

GO GET EM SARAH

Yep, I did...although honestly I don't know what difference it would make - does everything you gripe about actually happen to you?

No, it isn't - I seldom spout "bull****." You must have me mixed up with someone else here who doesn't care if they speak the truth or source the information.

Well the calls Palin referred to last year appear to be negative attack calls linking BO to his terrorist friend. OTOH the calls Palin are involved in are positive calls supporting a candidate who share her view of limited government, perhaps you missed the difference.
