Soccer Moms, did Palin win YOUR vote with her insult to YOU last night? ?

Question

She certainly insulted them in her speach. "The difference between a Soccer Mom and a Pit Bull, is lipstick."

Answer 1

Try getting the quote right next time - it was "hockey mom" not "soccer mom."

Answer 2

haha no i don't believe that was an insult BUT what i do find very amusing is that some unknown lady recites a pre-written speech by some very talented speech writers, and so many women jump on board as if she is the their long lost hero.. Are you people that easy to jump on the wagon that all it takes is one speech written by someone else to trick you in to believing that a woman is qualified to run a country if something tragic were to happen to McCain?  This scares the heck out of me.. I don't think I would trust my well being to a self proclaimed Pitbull..  I think atleast i would wait til she has to speak from her own thoughts and words first.. hahaha  all i can say is WOW!  

Answer 3

That was not an insult.  She has my vote and the vote of a lot of people.  Nice try you Obama fanatic.  Obama is toast!

Answer 4

Ok first of all it was Hockey moms...NOT soccer moms. And secondly it was a joke! Anyone with any common sense would know that!

Answer 5

It was Hockey Moms.

Maybe you should buy some Q-Tips

Answer 6

She was talking about hockey moms.  Different sport.  Soccer moms are busy getting the treats ready for halftime.

Answer 7

Only eyes-glazed-over Republicans would staunchly dig in their heels to say "She didn't insult soccer moms!" And here I was thinking my command of the English language was so superior! I guess I was looking at another speech then.

EDIT: That's right, it was hockey moms, not soccer moms. Did that really help the insult? Sigh. What a country, so focused on the incidentals, missing the forest for the trees.

Answer 8

Hockey moms are tough....soccer shouldn't even be called a "sport".

Answer 9

Only an elitist would draw your conclusion.  That is an old joke.

Answer 10

It's not an insult.  They got the joke. You lefties are so clueless.

Answer 11

she actually didn't mean it to be negative...she meant that a Hockey mom is as tough as a pitbull.

That being said...who feels secure with a hockey mom vs. Bin Laden??

I'm not saying that a candidate who happens to be a hockey mom can't run the country....but if that is her main qualification (and she did a good job of making it seem that way...she really needs to play it down a bit) then this country is in trouble.

For 8 yrs we tried that whole...'let's have our beer-buddy next door neighbor' run the country.  We see how well that worked out.

Answer 12

Sparky, get it right.

Palin said the difference between a HOCKEY MOM and a pit bull is lipstick.

Regardless, we need not look far to find who is truly an insult...

Answer 13

Palin was mentioning hockey moms.  Many here are saying that it was not an insult.  How is being called a pit bull a compliment?  Please explain.  That sounds like a euphemism for b*tch.

Answer 14

first off, you can't spell speech correctly, and second of all you can't even give an accurate direct quote!  stop giving us dems a bad rep.

Answer 15

NOPE - insulting people, like McSame and the hockey mom are doing will NOT get votes......

Answer 16

How dare she insult my sweet, innocent, pit bull he was insulted.

Answer 17

Sorry. No insult.

Next smear.

Answer 18

Why do liberal guys always fake like they're offended when someone mentions women?

Answer 19

Wow your kinda slow.  She won tons of votes last night.

Answer 20

She's an insult to women everywhere.  The idea that she's calling women "dogs" to their face is absolutely disgusting.  

Mrs. Ethics preaches abstinence in her home, but apparently doesn't spend enough time there to teach it to her daughter.

The idea that she's against abortion, even when it would save the mother's life or in the case of rape/incest, that is completely Republican thought.  Most women that are against abortion would allow it in these cases.  

You are no hero to women Palin.

Answer 21

soccer moms are not that dumb to think that was an insult, but i see you did think it was an insult.

by the way, wasn't it hockey moms?

Answer 22

Obviously you weren't listening. First of all she said "hockey", not soccer. Second of all she was telling a joke and saying how tough hockey moms are and that she has the stamina to be a good vice president.

Answer 23

That was not an insult.

Answer 24

Hockey Mom , were you watching the convention. It's called humor..

Answer 25

This hockey mom rhetoric is making me puke.

Answer 26

she lost my vote when she insulted God by saying the Iraq war was "a task from God"

If God sent the USA to Iraq to find mythical WMD, then that would mean that God is as nutty as George Bush

I doubt that

Answer 27

"Hockey Mom!"

Answer 28

Come on folks......some of you are just looking for dirt to spread. The lady had a great point last nite with the joke with lipstick. Those moms are fantastic and spend lots of time ferrying kids all over to those games. She compared herself to a pit bull in that they never give up and think of themselves.  I am just disgusted with this take on that little joke.

If you are so thin skinned as to think she was calling you a dog then you need to take an english course or see a shrink.

I see this family as a typical family in this age.  Lets give them that and stop trying to find someone to put on a pedestal.  She has kids she has a husband .......trust me she knows how to get the most out of her resources.

Answer 29

She is a Pit Bull who happen to wear a lipstick

Most of the hockey players are redneck, who prefer country music. you know what I mean..... Her future son-in-law wrote in his myspace (now been removed) that he is f******* redneck.

Answer 30

First of all she said Hockey MoM. And she was talking about herself not insulting anybody. Lay off the spin, and get your facts straight.

Answer 31

  hockey mom!!!  see you cant even get that right--    she was calling herself a pit bull
