Sarah Palin jokes about Biden's age

  No, really. She did. Has she looked at her running mate?

Yesterday she had this to say on the campaign trail in Ohio.

Palin: And I do look forward to Thursday night and debating Sen. Joe Biden. We're gonna talk about those new ideas, new energy for America. I'm looking forward to meeting him too. I've never met him before, but I've been hearing about his Senate speeches since I was in like second grade.

Let's see, Joe Biden was born on November 20, 1942 and was elected into the Senate in 1972. John McCain was born on August 29, 1936, so if she was---oh, never mind.

I do believe she will come out attacking Biden on Thursday night to appear the aggressor and the media will be wooed.

She really takes stupid to new levels, doesn't she?

Woo is the media.

Palin heard that saying about people living in glass houses not throwing rocks, and she figured that throwing industrial-grade reinforced concrete blocks was A-OK... because, well... they ain't rocks. Right?

What a freaking maroon this lady is. Thursday can't come fast enough...

This poor woman. Can't anyone shut her up for a couple of days? My head hurts.

Wait, does this mean that McCain's age is not available for criticism? Oh, wait, that's right. This is only allowed if the person being criticized is a Democrat.

Can we amend the Webster's Dictionary definitions for: stupid, idiot, moron, etc....?

If she attacks, it opens the door for Biden to strike back. And strike he will.
Moose tartar!

No surprise here. She's an airhead.

Keep talkin', Sarah. See you Thursday. Senator Biden will be the distinguished man standing next to you trying desperatly not to eat your lunch.

dumb, dumb, dumb

Oh.My.God.

Who can listen to that voice for more than 10 seconds???

Watching this debate is going to have to include heavy drinking.

nueve!!!! palin is only good when she has a puck in her mouth!!!

McCain-Too old,too slow, can't go-----------------------Palin-Too young,too fast,can't last!

The more she talks, the more votes migrate to the "D" column.

She is an absolute gift.

Oh gawwwwwwd. If only tits were brains.

LOL. I can just hear the big contributors calling the RNC and screaming into the phone..."Would you tell that stupid bitch to STFU!!!"

Sarah Palin's voice can peel paint.

I think we'll find out if she REALLY IS a "dickless" Cheney,after all!

Sexy.. uh.. anyway, What did I hear? Other than Roe V. Wade she can't name any other supreme court cases?

Talk about appealing to the lowest common denominator. The crowd sounds like a bunch wrestling fans.

This ignoramus and hypocritical religious fanatic has proven herself to be dangerous when given any power at all - from Mayor to Governor.

Please do not allow her to get the power of the vice-presidency of the US. Who knows what damage she could cause when she ascends to the presidency after mccain dies, or becomes otherwise incapacitated. Vote Obama/Biden on November 4th.

The only word that comes to my mind when i hear her talk is "red neck" and "Jerry Springer family" and I am being sonservative in expressing myself!!

"I do believe she will come out attacking Biden on Thursday night to appear the aggressor and the media will be wooed."

Bring it on, Barbie!

I don't think the media will be wooed. I think they'll be wetting themselves waiting to see what Tina Fey does this coming Saturday night.

Renell @ 16:

She is not a Cheney. We know Dick Cheney. She's a not so smart woman and Cheney is a crafty arch criminal right out of the Bat Man movies.

Suggestion to SNL: Make the entire show Saturday night a "re-creation" of Thursday's debate. Just use the transcript. Emmy Award, for sure.

Oh sure, she'll definitely come out of the gate swinging hard, trying to land a lot of punches on Biden. But will it seriously be a "wooing" performance? Come on now - they'll be the most transparently scripted, canned attacks you can possibly imagine, and as soon as Joe starts to throw her off-track and force her to think on her feet, she'll crumple like a cheap suit.

Oh she'll keep up the 'tude the whole time, I'm sure, no matter how badly she's beaten down, and the base will continue to love her for her feistiness. But any half-awake, half-sentient observer will be left wondering why John McCain picked a featherweight contender when the country desperately needed a George Foreman.

"Like, oh my gawd, he's so old. Gag me with a spoon". What a fucking bubblehead.

I quote Sean Connery in "The Rock":

(ahem)... Mrs. Palin... Personally I think you're a fucking idiot"

What's with the passive tense phrasing? She's got this Yoda like habit of flipping sentence order around.

"In the next 35 days...before that time for choosing for America"

To put it in Palinese, "A win that is a landslide is needed, for Obama /Biden so that Americans, who live in America and vote as Americans use that God given right that is theirs to use, to vote in American Elections such as that we have here in this great nation, that is America."

And another thing.
We have to beat the Bradley Effect (untraced racism in polls where people SAY they're voting Obama to look cool, then wimp out in the privacy of a darkened voting booth) We can do this by getting EVERYONE to Vote for OBAMA! Even if they don't necessarily CARE about voting, tell em it's like giving blood and that you'll really respect them for doing this small thing. Even if they say they don't like him, etc. Tell them that McCAIN is way scarier and that Palin could end up as the actual President and we all know what a mess that would be. Look where BUSH has gotten us....GRRRR.
This is bigger than racism, we have to STOP these people. Obama, Biden and the SMART ADULTS need to come back to Executive Branch to start the grim job of cleaning up this man-made disaster.

REGISTER and VOTE!

John,

You're right about that. She will act like a shrill, aggressive idiot and the Fox-types will declare her the winner or at worst, declare that she "won" by holding serve. It's all she has. But I am counting on the populace to see through that bullshit just like they saw through Grampy's snarky snapping at Obama this past Friday. Besides, even a lot of media types can only make themselves look like total asses for so long. Beyond the Hannity asshats who do what they are told otherwise suffer the wrath of their puppet masters later, there is only so much cover they can give Palin if she flames out.

After McCain & Palin lose, they should be cast in the remake of "Seven Year Itch" with McCain playing Tom Ewell and Sarah as Monroe.

Someone is coming out of this with Bloody underwear. My first thought when the paraded Tina in front of the press was ' I can't wait til Biden debates her' .

Second grade ' two of the best years of her life'

"She is not a Cheney. We know Dick Cheney. She’s a not so smart woman and Cheney is a crafty arch criminal right out of the Bat Man movies."~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Does that make McCain "Mr. Freeze,"and Obama "Batman"?

Yeah the media will all be sporting wooedies.

I wonder if she remembers anything from Joe Biden's speeches. The truth, more likely, is she never heard of him before her nomination.
I cannot believe there will be a debate.

The "media" will be "wooed" because they're told to be. It won't have a damn thing to do with the travesty that is about to occur with the vp debates.

Not funny, just typically mean...and dumb. And why would she open that door?

steved @ 15:

Sarah Palin's voice can peel paint.

It's like fingernails on a chalkboard times 10 million

So it's going to be like this is it? She can attack Biden but if he fights back he is taking advantage of her? She can say whatever the hell she wants but if he says anything he is attacking a "woman". She can place loose and easy with facts but if he corrects her he is attacking her intelligence?

Set the expectations as low as possible and what the hell she doesn't know about just about everything will be covered up by her snide comments?

Not sure this approach will go over well with Americans who are looking for someone to take the reins and lead our country in a new and better direction. The snide shit has been bush's act for eight years and look where that's gotten us.

Not only stupid but a liar as well. Nice choice McSame.

There is a vast gulf of difference bewteen smart and smart ass. Palin has neither a means of navigation,nor the abilty to swim the long divide.

PALINIZED:1. as in, "I have been Palinized by the lack of substance in your talking points." 2. to PALIN: Dumb down the conversation.

That would not be a funny or appropriate line even if her running mate was NOT Methuselah.

No class!

She's shattering the glass ceiling all right -- with her strident voice!

Could all this economic turmoil and Palin-based idiocy be a distraction? I dunno, but my current under-employment has allowed me to watch C-Span just now, and there's a Pentagon spokesman talking about how last week, 120 military advisors moved into position inside Israel with something called Expand Radar system, that doubles Israel's level of preparedness against Iran.

Happy Halloween already!

ha! and again today - have you noticed that cindy is trying to out lapel-pin sarah's huge flag brooch?

and watch cindy checking out her latest rival for her husband's attention... which it's so obvious that sarah would rather not have... but cindy is jealous!

She can go completly crazy and start speaking in tongues and there will be those that will still declare her the winner.

#45: I beg to differ. Palin has MORE class than ANYBODY in this election----and its ALL low!

John,

We have to be very optimistic about this debate. Palin BLEW her chances (plural) to woo the media. They are very annoyed with her. The honeymoon is over.

In fact, in this age of super-fast stardom cycles, I have never seen such a rapid rise and fall of a star politician - just over a month.

Palin is headed toward an epic fail on Thursday. Biden had better not blow it. It is his debate to lose. He has an opportunity to not only take Palin a notch lower, but also give a boost to the timid and polite Obama.

'Um, like, you know..' God she's horrible. She's not Cheney, she's Bush (no pun intended)! She even used the word 'awesome' to describe McCain's debate performance from last week which is Bush's favorite word ('Awesome speech, your excellency' - Bush said to the Pope). I hope Biden keeps focused and hands her ass to her on a plate. I can't even believe they've not found a way to keep her out of the debates yet, you know they gotta be sweating it. Definitely gonna be a laugh riot, though I agree the media will spin the crap out of it once it's all over.

Is it me but does she were anything other than that red outfit?

Renell @ 43:

There is a vast gulf of difference bewteen smart and smart ass...

I think the latter was the title of a spanking magazine.

And I forgot to add...

Do you think maybe we could set aside a U.S. territory or something, Guam maybe (if it will hold them all), to ship off all the dingleberry voters who genuinely think that which football team a politician supports is a valid measure of whether you should vote for them, or that who beats who in the latest ad nauseum weekend pigskin brawl is a valid measure of a politician's critical judgment?

No offense to football fans out there, but for the love of God, other than for purely rhetorical metaphors and analogies, keep politics and sports separate! If you can't, get the hell out of my country and stop contaminating the gene pool.

I bet she never even knew who Joe Biden was until Obama picked him to become his running mate

What a goddamn empty skirt.

I love a woman who needs to use the juvenile crutch word "like."

Go back to Alaska, you airhead.

So we should expect something like.... "Legally Blonde" ?

btw, where the hell was McCain's flag pin during the debates??!! Obama was wearing one, McCain was not! Traitor! Non-supporting troops pantywaist!

Why did they go for the close-up just then, I really wanted to see McCain guffawing along to that one.

I hope to see Biden ImPalin' her on her OWN petards.

Heathwood @ 52:

ann colter has some black cocktail dresses to loan her.

According to her High School hockey team Palin had more than a PUCK in her mouth just to shut up that whiney voice.

Every time she says "ya" (like Ya know) ,or ends a word by dropping off the "g" you must take 2 quick shots. We'll all be drunk by 9:15, you can be sure.

Please, by all means come out attacking Biden...then after he hands you your ass you'll know what a real debater can do.

This woman is an imbecile.

2nd grade is apparently when Sarah stopped paying attention in class.

I'm very scared about the debate...
The republicans have nothing to lose at this point.
If Biden is anything less than spot-on, the media will crucify him and make here the hero/victim/hockey mom.

galmud @ 55:

I bet she never even knew who Joe Biden was until Obama picked him to become his running mate

Exactly! And she is lying now about hearing Biden's speeches. She has admitted she did not pay attention to national politics.

Maybe this is a sign of the debate Thursday. She will avoid all questions and just spew ad hominems and insults on Obama and Biden and hope Joe will loose his cool

I heard she had to skip a play date to announce this.

I know Biden can kick her ass intellectually and politically but I've grown so used to our Congressional Democrats simly bending over and taking it up the ass. It wouldn't surprise me if she pulls off a very good showing or, worse yet, a win.

I know. I should STFU. But we've beent here before too many times.

galmud @ 55:

I bet she never even knew who Joe Biden was until Obama picked him to become his running mate

"Joe Biden. Wasn't he quarterbeck for the 49ers?"

Who better to know about someone than one's self?
Sarah Palin is a self proclaimed PIT BULL with lipstick.
She has given us the "heads up".
That is the beginning and the end of it.
It's almost amazing that she looks like a human at all.
She has all the brains, world knowledge and wisdom of a pit bull.
She is nothing more.
If she got into the white house, she would need us to pay for someone to walk her three times a day.. because I doubt she could remember where the lavatories are in a building that large.
The republicans have sunk to an unprecented low level with this one.
I am hanging up my republican registration for good now.
Do the republicans think that they have so many votes sealed up that they can afford to put this moron in place to pick up the few they couldn't appeal to.. and that that will win the presidency for them?
My main worrry is: " what is it that is being done behind our backs, while we are so distracted with this nonsense? "
Maybe the fact that our FDA has been corrupted beyond our worst nightmare visions, and is handing out decisions that are sealing our fates, and we are all spending our time paying attention to this Dog and Poney Show. Much to ponder here.

I'm like totally sick of her. She like makes me sick to my stomach. Totally gag me with a silver spoon. Totally. Like. Oh my god!!

I so F*CKED her in high school

In the behind.

Are black mini-cocktail dresses the de rigeur robe du soir for attendance at a pimp's funeral?

It's funny the way she thinks she's being clever.

Makes sense ...McCain had no idea who she was when he read her name off the prompter ...

I wonder who explained the speeches to her?

Here's an interesting fact about the McCain Palin Campaign.

They had a website called Voteforthemilf.com. Total proof that Palin is simply someone they're whoring to the media.

It was registered by the McCain campaign. Apparently, they didn't think anyone would find out.

Here's a link to the article.

http://campaignsilo.firedoglake.com/2008/09/30/lern2internets-voteforthe...

The stupidity of the GOP is truly frightening to behold.

Reality Check, please @ 70:

I know Biden can kick her ass intellectually and politically but I've grown so used to our Congressional Democrats simly bending over and taking it up the ass. It wouldn't surprise me if she pulls off a very good showing or, worse yet, a win.

blockquote>

sarah with a strap-on?

The image is turning me on...

Looking forward to seeing Palin make a complete embarrassing ASS out of herself, even more than she has already. She will be toast.

LegallyBlonde Says: She can go completly crazy and start speaking in tongues ----------------Ya mean that's NOT what was going on in the Katie Couric interviews? I thought the "Not So Divine" Sarah WAS speaking in tongues-or was she merely tongue tied?

Funniest thing of this video is Cindy Mccain laughing at the expense of Biden's age, not realizing her own husband is actually older than Biden!!!! talk about losers, someone should ask her when was the last time Mccain actually rocked her world!!!

The pro GOP media which is essentially all main stream or corporate media will say that Joe Biden is the Beast of Washington who beat up on the hot little hockey mom no matter what he says in the debate. Got that, Joe's a beast no matter what he does. So, why not kick her ass all the way back to Alaska, while doing it?

It doesn't take much to wow us media types nowadays.

Feed us (media types) a meal and we'll be your friend.

We're like dogs. One starts barking the rest will follow suit. One sniffs a spot and the rest will have to do it too.

Biden should be careful not to go boasting about his long senate career and his experience over Palins. That will only shift focus to Obamas experience in national politics

And I think this is a bait to tempt Biden to try what McCain did Friday.

problem... palin appears stupid, overconfident, undereducated and appeals to the lowest common denominator...

ever heard of george bush anybody???

If she just shows up sober and doesn't start crying, she will be declared the winner. Expectations are so low that it will be difficult, if not impossible, to do worse than everyone expects.

OK, than that should make her fair game for her inexperience. Go for it Joe.... Rip her a new one or a 4th one.

JCB

Biden should say he remembers being in the 2nd grade listening to speeches by John McCain.

I love the quote (Groucho perhaps?) someone wrote the other day concerning McCain and Palin:

"Those are my principles and if you don't like them....well, I have others".

Sarcasm can be fun and it has it's place. A vice presidential debate is not the place for it. It doesn't work for McCain and it won't work for her. We don't need I Love Lucy waiting in the wings to become the president

If she and McCain keep pissing on the media with the "gotcha journalism" kind of stuff, don't expect the media to embrace her. Instead we will hear that she's tough, a fighter, spunky and clever. Not words often used to describe a president or a vice president.

Do not expect to hear the words intelligent, well informed or bright, used by anyone except Fox news and their clowns.

I think if Biden is smart, he lets Palin do all the talking. No democrat strategist could defeat her the way she defeats herself.

Wow. Not only is she clueless, but she's also a jerk. The base loves her because she's a condescending snot. There's no statesmanship in her. She's just a hook with red meat attached.

I hope Biden doesn't hold back. The guy has way more experience and plenty of ideas, he shouldn't be afraid to flaunt it, especially next to this lightweight. There's no reason we shouldn't be judging candidates on what they know, not how big if an asshole they are.

Whereas, if Dems do anything even approaching criticism even on the grounds of fairness or Republican hypocrisy, they are dirty, sexist, Communists. The Repubs are bullies. I have a feeling, though, that Joe Biden will show Palin up for the empty skirt she is while remaining classy. After all, Obama did it to McPain in the first debate. Then maybe she will go away and hunt moose and we don't need to hear from her again.
And by the way, Biden is six years YOUNGER than her running mate, yet looks tanned, fit, at ease in his own skin. I don't see those qualities in McPain, and neither he nor Palin look comfortable in their own skins.

Sarah Palin jokes about Biden’s age

Liberals have been trying to make McCain's age an issue for months. Spare me the phony outrage.

Cindy has become like a bobble head enforcer. She shakes her head no at the appropriate time. She shakes her head yes at the appropriate time. In between she makes the appropriate facial expressions to go along with what is being said. Is this for the viewers who are too fu*king stupid to think for themselves so they look to her to see what emotion they should be feeling?

Another pathetic push back on the recent push to open McCain's medical records for public review. She certainly opened the "age is an issue" Pandora's Box. Can't close it now...

Palin acts like a Heather.

That is the short version. There have been several books writen about both elections.

I do believe she will come out attacking Biden on Thursday night to appear the aggressor and the media will be wooed.

And she'll look every inch the moran that she is when she does so.

Mega double standard. Biden should definitely treat her as he does any other politician.

So it's going to be like this is it? She can attack Biden but if he fights back he is taking advantage of her? She can say whatever the hell she wants but if he says anything he is attacking a "woman". She can place loose and easy with facts but if he corrects her he is attacking her intelligence?

Set the expectations as low as possible and what the hell she doesn't know about just about everything will be covered up by her snide comments?

Not sure this approach will go over well with Americans who are looking for someone to take the reins and lead our country in a new and better direction. The snide shit has been bush's act for eight years and look where that's gotten us.

It's Republican rules of politics: Repubs can do whatever they want, fight dirty, criticize a woman (Hillary) as shrill, criticize a candidate's family members, and it's not only OK, it's fun! Whereas, if Dems do anything even approaching criticism even on the grounds of fairness or Republican hypocrisy, they are dirty, sexist, Communists. The Repubs are bullies. I have a feeling, though, that Joe Biden will show Palin up for the empty skirt she is while remaining classy. After all, Obama did it to McPain in the first debate. Then maybe she will go away and hunt moose and we don't need to hear from her again.
And by the way, Biden is six years YOUNGER than her running mate, yet looks tanned, fit, at ease in his own skin. I don't see those qualities in McPain, and neither he nor Palin look comfortable in their own skins.

No matter what Biden does or says, they will attack him for beating up on her. Fuck it. The way to counter their argument is point out that on the job, she can't cry sexism. What if Putin or some other head of state disrespects her? What's she gonna do, "whine" like she says Hillary Clinton did?

Mega double standard. Biden should definitely treat her as he does any other politician.

I want to see a wimpering puddle on the dias Thursday night.

Sarah Palin jokes about Biden’s age

Liberals have been trying to make McCain's age an issue for months. Spare me the phony outrage.

It's an issue for McCain because he looks so bad and acts erratically, which is a real concern for someone who would have our lives in our hands vis a vis nuclear codes. His history of melanoma makes his ability to finish out a four-year term a real question. He acts 10 years older than he really is and required more than $5,000 of makeup services over the past several months to make himself presentable.
Whereas, Joe Biden looks and acts hale and hearty, at least 10 years younger than his chronological age, so to criticize him is just empty-headed.

That's because it is an issue and because he picked an idiot as his running mate making his age and health an even more important issue. The delicious irony of making the age of the Democratic VP nominee an issue is providing us with humor not outrage. We're laughing at you dude not with you.

McCorpse has an age issue?

What grade was Cindy McCain in when he was giving speeches?

I have always admired the presidents who have protected their children from the press as much as possible. The Clintons were probably the best at it. But with Palin, it seems something new has happened. She is putting her unwed pregnant teen daughter on the stage for the whole speech like a freakin' stage prop or something. How could a mom possibly use a daughter that way? I don't give a damn that the kid is pregnant, that's her business, but I doubt it's her choice to stand up there and have everyone stare at her.

It is worse than that.
What people are missing is the fact that this was already known to be a kid with developemental challenges in the womb, and then that was exacerbated by the fact that he was born one month premature.
This means that this poor little one, that was already behind the eight ball in the womb, was further compromised by his not having enough time in the womb to hatch properly.
His immune system has to be very compromised. What woman brings a four month old baby into an event where there are thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of people breathing out germs for hours on end? Even if it were a healthy infant.
Here we have a down's syndrome, PREMATURE baby, only four months old, being forced into this kind of situation, over and over and over again.
This woman isn't even fit enough to be a mother, let alone a president.
I am appalled at the lack of conscience of the Republican campaign managers that should have more sense " collectively' than this idiot of a VP candidate, and yet here this poor baby is on display, event after event to catch a sympathy vote here and there. Obviously MCCain's wife isn't the poster girl for motherhood either to be at Palin's side in this.
God help us all !

I meant when John McCain was giving speeches.

She was actually looking at Cindy McBush's stretched face after 6 face lifts.

i'm still surprised someone can attend 5 colleges/universities and get a bachelors degree.
i guess a tier #3 school will easily accept transfer
credits from other schools.

Sidd @ 80:

Funniest thing of this video is Cindy Mccain laughing at the expense of Biden's age, not realizing her own husband is actually older than Biden!!!! talk about losers, someone should ask her when was the last time Mccain actually rocked her world!!!

The combined age of the McCain/Palin ticket is 116 years.

The combined age of the Obama/Biden ticket is 112 years.

I take that Math is not the strongest suit of the Mrs. McCain and Mrs. Palin nitwits...

Watch Cindy McCain bust up at Palin's age "joke". Cindy - you're the one who's sleeping with a 72-year old geezer. We're laughing at you. Go ahead and make age an issue...

DOB's from the Wiki:

John McCain 08/29/36
Cindy McCain 05/20/54
Sarah Palin 02/11/64

Barak Obama 08/04/61
Joe Biden 11/20/42

Same one she achieved?

According to CNN she may be a Rhodes Scholar ..

"Ticker: Is Palin the next Bill Clinton?"

Wow.
CNN.
Anything to keep it close ...

I tried to protest this silly Ticker story, but CNN had closed the comments. Imagine comparing six-year degree Palin to Rhodes scholar and attorney Clinton. I mean, come ON. Arkansas might be relatively small, but it has nearly five times the population of Alaska and Clinton has about five times the IQ of Palin.

After which she'll complain endlessly about the "gotcha" questions such as: What state were you the governor of?

If she just shows up sober and doesn't start crying, she will be declared the winner. Expectations are so low that it will be difficult, if not impossible, to do worse than everyone expects.

oh please Joe...

MAKE HER CRY!

It would be a first for VP debates!

I take that Math is not the strongest suit of the Mrs. McCain and Mrs. Palin nitwits...

that's the calendar age. i wonder what the real biological age is....mccain has been through a lot. i think mccain is biologically older than 72.5

Her entire shtick is talking smack with a smile.

The real problem is that Sara's I.Q. may not be as high as Biden's age.

Sarah Palin takes a fat Alaskan dump on government experience.

rhl @ 65:

2nd grade is apparently when Sarah stopped paying attention in class.

Certainly in math, because in Illinois where I grew up and in Texas where I live now and my children attend school, a child is usually 7 or 8 when they attend 2nd grade. 27 + 8 (I'm being generous) = 35. Palin is in her 40's, so she wouldn't have heard any of Biden's speeches until junior high or high school. What a moron.

An' I doooo look forwerd ta' meetin' Jooooe Biden!

Ok now Tommy, git in da van! Yer late fer soccer practice! An' don't fergit yer thermos!

... Oh god, it really is like Matt Damon said. It's like a bad Disney movie.

WHY does this fucking asshole sound like she's from fuckin FARGO?

Crashing planes and setting aircraft carriers on fire sure does take a toll on people...

The funny thing is that both McCain's are in denial of their ages: John robbing the cradle, and Cindy still thinking she is in her early 30s. LOL

pissed off patricia @ 106:

Cindy has become like a bobble head enforcer. She shakes her head no at the appropriate time. She shakes her head yes at the appropriate time. In between she makes the appropriate facial expressions to go along with what is being said. Is this for the viewers who are too fu*king stupid to think for themselves so they look to her to see what emotion they should be feeling?

It's an old con-man trick. You nod, and people who agree with you start to nod.

But, even better, after you 'anchor' that behavior a few times by nodding in response to true statements, then you can toss a falsehood in there, nod, and it causes your audience to behave in the same manner as your truthful statement.
