"Closer inspection of a photo of Sarah Palin, during a speech in which she mocked President Obama for his use of a teleprompter, reveals several notes written on her left hand. The words "Energy", "Tax" and "Lift American Spirits" are clearly visible. There's also what appears to read as "Budget cuts" with the word Budget crossed out."
WOW, I am shocked that she had a few key words written on her hand when giving a major speech covered by CSPAN and most of the cable news networks. Really, it is the same thing as reading the whole thing word for word off a TelePrompTer isn't it?
The left has more, I know, gasp. There is video where she appears to check these points on her hand when asked about the role of a conservative House or Senate if in fact Republicans manage to wrestle the gavel from Pelosi's grip:

Above all, she is capable of generating a personality cult - much, much more so than Obama, because she can harness Christianism to her divine destiny. The power of this kind of appeal - of a charismatic, beautiful woman, an icon of the pro-life cause, persecuted by the evil elites, demonized by libruls, and commanding the biggest military on earth - should not in my view be under-estimated.
Know fear.
The surest way to defeat the modern day Jeanne d'Arc is through her gynecological records, of course. Andrew Sullivan's crib notes would therefore look something like this:
