3 quotes from Ms. Palin:

"Red Sox fans know how to turn an underdog into a victor."

"How about those Tampa Bay Rays? You know what that tells me? It tells
me that the people in this area know a little something about turning
an underdog into a victor."

The Alaska governor...told the packed Lancaster Barnstormers stadium
that she was counting on Philadelphia Phillies fans to turn "an
underdog into a victor."

Now that's thinking on your feet!

You are getting your time periods mixed up. Going into the playoffs
the Rays were definitely the underdogs. They were in last place just
last year. Palin correctly called them the underdogs during this time
period.

Once the Rays became the American league champs most all sporting
news authorities ranked the Rays as the team to beat. The Redsox
became the underdogs at that later time. Palin then identified the
Redsox correctly as the underdogs. Look it up if you don't believe it.

So it seems that she may be more on top of the changing times than
you think.

I must make a correction. Change all references of the Redsox to the
Phillies. Sorry Philadelphia.
