Palin won’t choke. She won’t take away your liberty or impose her religious beliefs. But, most importantly, AGAIN, she won’t choke. She has learned her lesson now re the MSm and will perfect the meaningless sound bite banter with the MSm putas.

“By now nearly everyone is aware that Palin played on a championship high school basketball team and earned the nickname “Barracuda.” But it’s not so widely known that she scored the winning points at the end of the crucial game by nailing her free throws, and that she did so while playing with a stress fracture. Free throws require accuracy and the ability to calm down a racing heart in order to focus, while playing with that sort of injury shows courage and grit.”

“An athlete is not only a competitor; he or she is also a performer. It’s one thing to play the sport well in practice, when nothing is on the line and no one but the coach and your teammates are watching. It’s quite another to do so in front of a screaming audience out for blood, at least half of which may be rooting for you to choke.”
