The other thing is that there is nothing wrong with being a hockey mom, or being a small town mayor, or whatever you want to be. It doesn't mean you are qualified to be the VP or the P.

Also, Palin's approach hasn't exactly been, aw shucks I'm just a hockey mom. It's been more like, fuck you, I'm a hockey mom and don't give a shit about anything other than what I know.

If there is anything that I actually hate about her, it's the fact that she embraces her own ignorance. Wears it like a badge of honor. Some people love that about her. I think it's one portion of the people who supported Bush in 2000 and 2004. But some of the people who supported Bush woke the hell up. It's not the same country it was then. Thank goodness.

Some (low) highlights:

WASILLA, Alaska – Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin says she wouldn't hesitate to run for the presidency in four years if it's God's will, even though she never thought Campaign 2008 would be "as brutal a ride as it turned out to be."

In a series of interviews in the wake of last Tuesday's elections, Palin said she had no problem with Republican presidential nominee John McCain, but that she resents rumors she said were spread about her and her family by the Arizona Republican's aides. She emphatically denied that she was a drag on the GOP ticket.

"I think the economic collapse had a heckuva lot more to do with the campaign's collapse than me personally," the governor said in an interview broadcast Tuesday on NBC's "Today" show.

Sarah: "It was NOT my fault!" *stomps her foot* "NOT MY FAULT!"

"I'm like, OK, God, if there is an open door for me somewhere, this is what I always pray, I'm like, don't let me miss the open door," Palin said in an interview with Fox News on Monday. "And if there is an open door in '12 or four years later, and if it is something that is going to be good for my family, for my state, for my nation, an opportunity for me, then I'll plow through that door."

I like her priorities here.

1) Family
2) Alaska
3) the rest of the country

I can understand putting family first, but, Alaska first, well...

Then again, in her defense, she has her governor hat on in that interview, so she playing to her constituency.

"It's amazing that we did as well as we did," the governor said of the election in a separate interview with the Anchorage Daily News.

"I think the Republican ticket represented too much of the status quo, too much of what had gone on in these last eight years, that Americans were kind of shaking their heads like going, wait a minute, how did we run up a $10 trillion debt in a Republican administration? How have there been blunders with war strategy under a Republican administration? If we're talking change, we want to get far away from what it was that the present administration represented and that is to a great degree what the Republican Party at the time had been representing," Palin said in a story published Sunday.

Sarah: "It was John's fault."


Palin and McCain's campaign faced a storm of criticism over the tens of thousands of dollars spent at such high-end stores as Saks Fifth Avenue and Neiman Marcus to dress the nominee. Republican National Committee lawyers are still trying to determine exactly what clothing was bought for Palin, what was returned and what has become of the rest.

If she does run for president, or anything else, I want to see the clothing thing be the albatross around her neck. It's such a ludicrous issue in the big picture, but emblematic of what is wrong with the republicans.
 
Grandpa, you officially suck for bumping this thread!

I was going to say something along those lines but decided not to for fear of further bumping this thread! But now that you've gone and done it, I guess I can to. But after this, lets let it die! I don't want to think about her anymore.

That's the trouble with young people today: no sense of humor. :p
 
They love her here in Georgia. The runoff won't be close. Chambliss by six or more.
 
The turkey thing was funnier than a month of Daily Show.

More like funnier than two minutes of Bill O'Reilly, but I'm picky and I really like Jon Stewart. Why, I even once picked out a video to watch because he was in the movie.
 
well, well, well now - it looks like there are some things even I won't consider doing to get some panties after all....

I'm proud of you, Shank. A lesser man might have gone off in search of corruptible Republicans, not that any exist, of course. ;)
