Conservatives Fawn Over Palin's Physical Appearance (VIDEO)

Think Progress:

Last month, the McCain campaign accused Sen. Joe Biden (D-DE) of being "disrespectful" and sexist for calling Gov. Sarah Palin (R-AK) "attractive." Will it similarly slam National Review's Rich Lowry, who praised Palin's sex appeal to male viewers?

I'm sure I'm not the only male in America who, when Palin dropped her first wink, sat up a little straighter on the couch and said, "Hey, I think she just winked at me." And her smile. By the end, when she clearly knew she was doing well, it was so sparkling it was almost mesmerizing. It sent little starbursts through the screen and ricocheting around the living rooms of America.

It is clear these folks are thinking with another part of the anatomy.

[MaybeMilo]

As a Vice Presidential candidate, Gov. Palin makes an excellent sportscaster.

...no offense to sportscasters.

[Kindheart]

Why if a conservative says those things about Sarah, it isn't sexist? They certainly do confuse me

[quasar]

Stunning. I mean stunningly sexist. I mean what a surprise.

ICKY YUCK! I know the perverts are out hunting. Women keep your mace handy and everyone keep your children close. The perverts out there now and think it is OK to act this way because Republicans started this nastiness.

[asteven]

she might be attractive for a one night stand... but, would you marry her??... would you want her to raise your kids??...

[Pacojam]

She is not attractive for anything

[dct1999]

I wouldn't want her to raise anyone's kids.

John McBush choose Sarah Palin for this reason only. It was a "political" decision, not a "good judgement" decision. The republicans say it on television. She is not the typical "white man" that republicans always toss in front of the camera. So, this is how they get their "energy". When the wives of the electorate finally "get it", which is their "men" are backing Sarah Palin, not John McCain, there may be a revolt at the polls on November 4. John McBush seems to think that most women are stupid. He has proven that by using Sarah Palin as he has. She should be embarassed and ashamed to have to "flirt for votes", as she has no intelligence to back her up, and for ALLOWING John McBush to do so. AKA: "a dumb blond". America and Americans are in serious trouble. This is not a "beauty pageant". This is real. John McCain is 72 years old and is not a "bright" or well person himself. This is a disaster waiting to happen. How sad for our country.

SPELL CHECK: CHOSE.....................

[LAcarlito]

These sickos find Man Coulter sexy. So, what else is new?

[Pacojam]

It's funny, but I find Palin totally unattractive.

However I find Tina Fey totally hot.

[ladyv]

Well, you've probably experienced actual real live women flirting with you. This is totally new to this Rich Lowry character.

[Pacojam]

Yes, you are correct about that ladyv.

[naijaman]

So this is what it takes to become VICE PRESIDENT??? God help us all...

[Housewife]

You want to avoid Palin? Make calls for Obama. I just spent the morning at a phone bank with a bunch of motivated kids in their 20's.

Go to http://my.barackobama.com/modules/votercontact/login_signup.php

and volunteer. The experience is great when you see the younger generation in charge of the campaign and it is very satisfying to here a Nevada voter say they won't vote for McCain because he picked Palin.

[confuseddemocrat]

Guys may stray to Palin during the debate, but they will come back home to the Dems on Nov. 4.

[bitterinsc]

I think you are right -- my son says Sarah is like the girl you hook up with, but certainly not someone you would bring home to meet your mother.

[RBN]

A Republican wet dream.

[jjoshaugh]

I think she works the camera pretty well. I have heard reports that people that listened to the debate on the radio were totally repelled by her, but she got a more positive reaction from those that watched it on the TV screen

To be honest I found her only mildly irritating when I watched it first time round, but then when I watched it again I was really annoyed by her antics, and the fact she had nothing to say came out far clearer.

Interestingly, I was having an email argument with someone earlier, and I started with "Say it ain't so, Joe!" and ended with "You get extra credit for writing this letter! *Wink* "and he completely exploded. Went completely off the rails. I think I touched a raw nerve.

[zoozey]

You know, that is an interesting point about the radio listeners. I can see how that would be the case!
