Palin to Simon Cowell -- Eat My Dust

Posted Sep 6th 2008 11:05AM by TMZ Staff

Sarah Palin -- hotter than Carrie Underwood. Barack Obama -- bigger than Michael Phelps.

Each convention pulled in more viewers than an "American Idol" finale, the Academy Awards and the opening ceremonies of the Beijing Olympics.

The GOP had 76 million eyeballs (we've rounded it out, accounting for the fact that not everyone has two eyeballs. Total viewership -- 38.9 mil). The Dems snagged 38.4 million viewers on the networks. When you add in PBS, both prez candidates had 42 million viewers watching their acceptance speeches.

It could be a dead heat. Under the new election rules, if there's a tie there will be a steel-cage match. Our money is on Palin.

17. McCain/Palin = twisted morals

One cheated on his wife and obtained his marriage license prior to his divorce being finallized. He also was seeing Cindy before he was separated from Carol. GREAT morals to follow when there is already a 50% divorce rate in this country.

The other was a great example for her daughter to follow. She married her husband on Aug 29, 1988 and had her first kid on Apr 29, 1989 which is 4 weeks less than the normal 38 weeks. I'd rather know the answer to this - was Track premature or ws Palin not living the morals that she is trying to shove down everyone else throats.

Meanwhile Obama has been married ONCE. Biden has been married twice but didn't get his marriage license for the second marriage until AFTER he was widowed. - I think these are MUCH better morals to be teaching our kids.

As a non-Christian - I've had ENOUGH of others trying to tell me how I should think and what I should believe. I do believe in God but I don't believe Jesus was or is God or ever will be God and as an American that is ALLOWED in the Constitution and I'm not going to Hell for having these beliefs so don't even try and change my views.

18. well oldenough you certainly are that! TOO old i might add....this is an entirely different world than the 1920's when you were a mistake to your parents and how do we even know they were married when you werre concieved? Stop bashing people you know nothing about and throwing you senseless morals out there.

19. GIVE ME A BREAK!! Palin talks big, but if she wants to act like a man, then she better get read to get kicked in her balls.
Beyond a speach written for her,what does she offer? She won't speak to the press? She's G.Bush with breasts. Go back to Alaska you conservative skank.

21. So Palin is great big deal she is not running for president McCain is so her job as VP would mean nothing just a side kick to McCain. Any more yrs like Bush and this country will be falling off the face of the earth. McCain is not needed in the white house!!

24. Sarah Palin doesn't realize yet (since she just found out her job description as vice president) that the vice president has only two jobs:

1. to attend state funerals around the world
2. to keep a close eye (with McCain it will be hourly) on the health conditions of the president.

That's it, folks. She is going to GO CRAZY! It will, however, give her time to raise her kids.

25. People who say that it was a controlled speech for your information there was a problem with the teleprompter and Sara Palin had to wing it. this women is a natural at speaking alot better than most people.
Obama had trouble as well with his teleprompter but had to wait until it was fixed so he can go on reading it.
SARA PALIN IS THE REAL DEAL AND THE REAL CHANGE WE WANT FOR AMERICA
