NR's Rich Lowry: Palin "Sent Little Starbursts Through The Screen"

Via TNR, National Review's Rich Lowry gives Sarah Palin's debate winks a rave review:

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. This is a quality that can't be learned; it's either something you have or you don't, and man, she's got it.

See video of Palin's mesmerizing, man-straightening winks here.

I thought the winking meant she was close to her Cinemax moment... the hair would come down (with one pin removed), the glasses would come off and she'd jump on Joe's podium.

I must have a filthy mind, but I thought it was clever.

Was there even one journalist who said that winking is unprofessional and conduct unbecoming for a vpotus? Just curious. It makes me so mad that anyone would blather on about how adorable it was....

[freedomfighter1]

Dude, you need a woman, period. So pathetic!

[athenasword]

So we already know that no one cares about having a president/vice president with intelligence. Now, we don't even care about professionalism? Never mind, it's ok as long as they're cute?!!!!!

[iv64]

.....and she is not that cute!! OK maybe in comparison to McCain.

[Rutabaga]

So, even if it's true, it doesn't answer the fundamental question: why is she qualified to be vice president, and quite possibly president? Answer that, Mr. Starburst Man.

[goldnchyl]

he can only answer with his lesser head

[KarlaElisa]

Yeah...tho­se starbursts hit me and felt about as good as someone being repeatedly tasered.
Cringe fatigue, indeed.

[athenasword]

Ah, yes. THAT was the feeling, indeed.

[marc1antony]

[DanniD]

Ewwww! Now I feel violated!

I just wanted to watch the VP debate, not soft core porn for pathetic losers! Ewwwwwwww!!!

The frontier saloon gal trying to drum up a little business.

[magggs]

And they climbed all over Chris Mathews' leg tingle? Okay, maybe that's a bad way to phrase it...

[somefool]

I can't believe KO said that on the air. Faux is going to have a hissy fit.

Not to be a total @ss, but did anyone else hear Palin say during the debate that McCain had "tapped her." Hmmmm, might be a joke here somewhere.

I can honestly say this is one of the funniest stories EVER on Huffington­....but the posts by readers are better...c­an't stop laughing reading them....Co­ngrats to you all!
