New Poll.

I created a little poll over there on the left so that all of you can give your opinion as to why we have received so much attention from Sarah Palin's flying monkeys lately.

I even included a choice for the Palin-bots because that is just how I roll.

I am interested in everybody's opinion so make sure to vote!  And no cheating!

68 comments:

  1. I would like to add my extra choices - Palinbots don't believe in freedom of anything except gun ownership, and they cannot stand the idea of someone having an opinion different from their own.
    - they are idiots

    Interesting read of a new article on Huff: Sarah Palin - America's Full-Time Professional Duelist

    http://www.huffingtonpost.com/tina-dupuy/sarah-palin-americas-full_b_789858.html?ir=Media#comments

    Love the last paragraph:

    "I've watched enough nature shows to know that if a real Mama Grizzly fought this much of the time -- we'd have to assume the beast was rabid."

  7. I think the poll questions are juvenile, self serving, and pointless. My suggestion? Don't embarrass yourself Gryph.

    I think whatever viciousness you see here is a byproduct of the times and the product you are selling.

    My opinion is that many of the blogs have not been concentrating on her as much lately on day-to-day things and therefore the bots have fewer places to visit. Has to be 'fresh info' in that 'brain retention' -- not a bot characteristic.

    Her being on a book tour, there is less out there with media shut off, unless of course she appears on Faux or someone 'grows a set' to make comments. Like Morning Joe, Mrs. Bush, Keith, etc.

    Bots provide comic relief!!!

    I have to say that I have seen few vicious comments. They're more "planned out", if you will. Like the 'bots are given a script. Such as: I know the Palins, they're a great family, everyone loves them. Sarah is the most modest, normal person out there.

    Or, my favorite: I'm no Palin fan, but..... here's why you are wrong about whatever you're criticizing her for.

    Anyway, I think they're afraid of the GOP taking her down and are venting here. IF you do know something, Gryphen, you should share it for the good of the country. You've said that you have peices of the babygate story that are missing, though, and have for a long time. So, although I'd like to believe they're scared of you, I doubt it. JMO.

    The Bots put a lot of time and $ into her. Of course they will attack. As they lose site of what they first saw in her and why they even liked her, it is hard to give up. Is there anyone else in the party that they support who they feel espouses what she initially did? Sarah Palin is breath of fresh air gone stale. Her fruit is rotting, not fermenting on the vine. It has probably been hard on people who have done without so they could donate to her see what she is becoming.

    I chose #2 but I think in addition to her having her spies watch for any real potential damage you may do there is also the fact that her followers (like her) love to show hate. Palin and her pathetic groupies are incapable of believing their queen idiot isn't perfect.

    ReplyDelete
  29. I think there are a few reasons for the cult's new interest in IM. First there is Palin's overexposure with Bristol's "Dancing While Pregnant" show and Palin's "I am a Phony Wilderness Mama" show both revealing a great deal. It's getting harder and harder to deny that this is a crazy, pathologically lying woman leading a dysfunctional family. Secondly, certain members of the GOP are beginning to speak up against Palin-- they see how destructive she is to the party and the nation.
    Finally, if any members of the cult are awake and aware enough to actually listen to sista' Sarah's speeches, they'll have to admit that she says the same thing, over and over. There is nothing there-- nothing!
    So, with their dream vision slowly fading, it's extremely frightening for the Palinbots to imagine that, perhaps, all this chatter here about babygate and phony marriage-gate MIGHT BE TRUE!!

    They don't want to hear it!

    Palin's a fad like hulu hoops, the Osmond Family or Brittany Spears. It always ends soon. What's more interesting is what she says or does that people can find appealing in any way, other than gawking at the wreckage. She's stupidly set herself up to peak too soon. Maybe not stupid. She wants to be the boss without the work. Running for President would get her close to hundreds of millions of dollars. That's a beauty queen's dream.

    I agree with the observation that the comments seem "planned out." I know Palin is not known for running a particularly tight or conventional operation, but some of the comments I've seen lately seem more calculated and programatic. Maybe someone advised her or one of her people that it's a good idea to start pushing back on some of the more critical blogs as part of a more organized way of controlling her brand going into the next election. It's more of her/her people trying to tie up loose ends.

    Fascinating.

    At this writing, just over 600 votes cast and exactly 2 - that's TWO - have chosen the obvious Palinbot option?

    If this is legit your poll might be serving a purpose that it (perhaps) was created for. So far, a clear indication that, in cyberspace, it can take just a few to make a whole lot of noise...

    Since the "real" republicans are starting to turn on her the bots are stepping it up a notch & getting their comments in everywhere they can before she fades away.

    After all her book isn't going anywhere, her show isn't really going anywhere & she has hardly anyone showing up at her book signings. They must be really frustrated about that also, too;)

    One thing bots use is "I'm not a Palin supporter," and then go on to list accomplishments and defend. In some cases, the commenter may not be a supporter but many times they actually are bots trying to throw people off.

    I want to vote for the first three choices. Sarah IS slipping. Her bots are the Hounds of Hell. Ask Joe McGinniss. Look how well that turned out for Bristol and DWTS. If you take away Sarah's Blackberry, she will curl up like a dead leaf; it is her life line. Sarah can only think in 140 characters at a time. That Blackberry is her brain.

    More polls: On what date will Sarah announce that she is running for President? (It will have to be after she has milked that Fox Show for everything that it's worth, and her TLC series is over. The book doesn't look as if it is doing all that well. She is currently #21 on Amazon's Best Sellers List: http://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/books#2,
    Sarah's book isn't in the top 35 at New York Times Non Fiction Best Sellers.

    Barbara WaWa's show of the 10 Most Fascinating People (IMO in her mind and Bill Getty's) which includes Sarah Palin ('I can beat BO comment released' by Walters prior to Obama interview.)

    As she does not announce who is number 1 on the list. Topic arose that due to Wawa's support and feeling sorry for Bristol, her adding of ratings to DWTS and Wawa's habitual kicking Levi to the curb -- Bristol may be No. 1???

    Please no!!
