Palin a huge hit at the Clinton Forum.–

You would not believe how the Sarah Palin pick is playing out at the Hillary Clinton Forum (tip to a VC commenter). In order, these are all the posts on the first (and only) page I’ve looked at (page 8 of the Palin thread; this link may not point to exactly the same posts). I cut out headers and footers only.

Wow, Thanks so much to this Sarah Palin who never forgot us. She is a fighter. She paid her respects to our Hillary and Geraldine . They now no more think women in this country are 2nd class. You go girl and thank you for a refreshing pick Sen. McCain.

Or Michelles. “Why’d he go and do that!”

I am going over to John McCain’s website and thank her for acknowledging the glass ceiling and our struggles. She needs to know that there are LOTS of us behind her fight.

Maybe those 18 million cracks will help her shatter the ceiling!

You can bet that BO did not see this coming.

I’m listening to his acolyte now on MSNBC, Andrea Mitchell. The tone of her voice and this almost choking quality of her words tells me that she sees this as a real problem for her guy, BO. (I’m gleeful.)

gave John McCain a standing ovation and a 10 minute claps. It did not matter that there was no one around except my dog to share that.

Hats off! Bigtime!!

Sarah visiting a wounded soldier in Germany.

Remember just a short while ago Obama would not visit the wounded soldiers in Germany but he would take take to play the rock idol there.

Geraldine Ferraro is a very astute woman!

obama made the biggest mistake of his career not choosing Hillary. The Democrats got behind obama so much they didn’t even realize what they were doing trying to push Hillary out of the picture. I’m sure Hillary is not happy obama did not make her but she is probably laughing now and preparing for 2012 campaign with the slogan “I told you so”

I am thrilled her speech was genuine, and promising!!!!! Let’s go Forum, we have a mission.

Obama did not see that coming!
I’m sure a lot of people didn’t see it coming. Great job by the McCain campaign to keep things very hush hush!

Wow. I’ve been listening to 98.7 Kluv, and they keep cranking out songs about women. They’re really celebrating, too! The last one I heard was, “Treat her like a Lady!” TOOOOOOOOOO cool.

These are the only Clinton Forum comments I’ve read so far — no cherry-picking. Incredible!

UPDATE: In the comments below, someone is so stunned by this outpouring that he thinks the Clinton Forum is a Republican site. It’s a real site for die-hard Clinton supporters. I’ve now read posts going back to March (the forum started in February).

If the McCain Campaign had such brilliant and energetic grassroots supporters that they could plant 300,000 pro-Hillary comments on one website starting in February, selling Hillary merchandize, and raising money for Hillary — all the while knowing that Hillary would lose nonetheless, I would be very impressed (and more than a bit frightened). Can the McCain campaign even get 300,000 comments on their OWN campaign website, let alone a fake one?

No, it’s a real site, and many recent posters are longtime members of it.
That some of you doubted it just proves my point: this outpouring is amazing.
