The saying was "you can put a dress on a pig" and take it to a dance, but it's still a pig.

Palin once said "what's the difference between a hockey mom and a bulldog - lipstick."

Obama was making a nasty, vile, and unacceptable insult when he chose to use "lipstick" in the original saying. That was simply out of line, and ne never really apologized for it. Not the gentlemen he says he is.

Obama's campaign is utterly dependant upon unexperienced and uneducated voters in order to win. A tiny fraction of them know what the issues are or what his policies will mean to them. They hear "HOPE" and "CHANGE" and that's all it takes to grab their attention. Obama's campaign is brilliant from a propagandistic standpoint, unless you are knowledgable about what these vague slogans and slick images mean from a historical perspective. An Obama presidency will be a disaster for us all.

The women on McCain's staff get paid more than the men. The men on Obama's staff get paid more than the women.

This is not his 'Phony Outrage' it is the truth. Couric and her network had McCain camp pull the ad because they used Her out of context even.
Lipstick on a pig is an expression used widely in Washington. Like 'you can polish a turd, but it's still a turd'!
