Call them The Winks Seen Round the World, but what the heck was up with Sarah Palin’s eyes tonight?
Was the former beauty queen flirting with us? Or was it like, “Chill bitches, I got this?”
Right now I’m putting the finishing touches on a more “substantive” post regarding tonight’s debate, but in the meantime, maybe someone can be so kind as to explain to me why Palin kept doing this…
and this…
and this…
I try to avoid critiquing people’s body language and, you know, stick to the issues… but this winking thing was just so over the top that, I admit, it started to freak me out.
How’d it play in your living rooms?
UPDATE: Video of the winks below, apologies beforehand for the music.

She’s having a bad bangs day? (Damn, there are those bangs in my eye again…)

She just doesn’t blink, so she had to wet her eye somehow.

I’m not all that sure she not drunk.

Whoops, forgot the possessive form of my pronoun, maybe I’m still drunk.

It just creeps me out to be winked out. Since last nights “debate” I’ve been looking for what it means. I’ve come up with “flirting” as a reason and “conspiratorial”. She just thinks she’s just too cute and that’s part of it to me.

I’ll bite. I hated her winking at me only because she was too far away to take her up on her offer. Sigh. And while I would’ve made her dream of Tim instead of Todd, I would never vote for a slut who lies as much as she does.

She is winking because it empowers her to be condescending to the American public. If she talks to you as if you are a toddler, it boosts her own image. I think it is insulting when adults wink at each other. It’s patronizing. Winking should be reserved for old men trying to pick up young chicks, or kindergarten teachers talking to five year olds.

She is definitely both drunk and stoned and indicating a willingness for sex. She certainly has my bone, oops I mean vote. (<–Sarcasm) Nukular.
