I didn't vote for McCain nor did I vote for Obama, because I don't like any of the four that were represented in those camps. I just think the attacks on her and her family are unjustified. It doesn't mean that I am voting for her.
Nah, she puts herself out there - she is as open to public criticism as anyone else in the public eye. Not anyone's but her own fault that she is such an easy target with incredibly thin skin. And, that she has shown her weakness, that is having thin skin. Politicians should show no weakness or that weakness will get exploited by those who do not agree with you. And, she doesn't help her own case when she babbles nonsense and tries to pass them on as sensible fact.
Go Sarah! See ya in 2012! Don't let these "Libs" scare ya away!
You can't be serious. What do you like about her as a presidential candidate?
Trust me, she will be scared away long before the left can officially get a hold of her.
But seriously, what has she ever said that made you think, 'yeah, she would make an outstanding president of the US'?
i think it might be her "folksy" delivery and style. i think people might be a little more supportive of someone that makes them feel smart. maybe the average voter is intimidated by an articulate and well spoken leader and would prefer to be "talked up to" as opposed to talked down to. to be honest, like bush, to hear her speak makes me cringe. i feel like a 1st grader sitting through "story time" whenever palin or bush speaks.
she has said nothing that has ever made me think she would be a credible candidate, let alone an average to good one.
"You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry." - Lincoln
Ummmm- in all honesty - it's kinda hard to "pinpoint" the exact thing. I think Bush was the right President for 9-11. I shudder to think what Obama would have done.......but that's just a "hypothetical" scenerio. I think Bush got kind of lazy - especially his last year or two. But in all honesty I'm not "into" the Obama" "Apology Tour." And I still believe in the "American Dream" - while it lasts.
What do you think Obama or Gore would've done in response to 9/11 that would have been so horrible?? and in comparison what do you think Bush did so right??
we never even caught the guy they say did it, in fact Bush said he didn't even think about him. this is, of course, AFTER he says "bring it on!! now watch this drive heh heh heh"
as far as i can see all the Bush administration accomplished was wasting a lot of lives on both sides, taking us from a surplus to debt, poisoning 2 countries with DU rounds (medical studies show birth defects tend to increase by hundreds of % in areas we've dropped them in the past), destroying our standing.....
ahem.....
i am really curious about this. it was so annoying to hear it said about Gore for years, i just wonder what people think Gore or Obama would've done that would've been so catastrophic?

wow that's pathetic and you consider your self a liberal ? I wonder.. if she was a democrat would you feel the same way ? Keep it classy
well stupid and backwards is not very politically correct however she is most definitely incompetent, unqalified and corrupt ... that has been shown and proven - only the truly partisan would not see that ...
i don't care if she is a republican or democrat - that is the problem with partisan people - everything they believe in is based on one or two letters ... think independently and think objectively ... if you do so - how can you not see she was unqualified to be vp ... then again - people voted for bush soo ...

Please explain to me why you think she's corrupt and incompetent.
well ... it's all over the news ... a simple search would show that she's been investigated several times for various abuses of power ...
as for incompetence - just look at every interview she's done ... her ignorance on topics doesn't make her incompetent - what makes her incompetent is that when told by experienced advisers that she needs to bone up on foreign affairs and other key issues - she chose to ignore them and go on a nationally televised interview unprepared ... it can be said that mccains campaign derailed right after her interview with katie couric ... she also went on SNL where she was being made fun of on live tv and she didn't even know it ... at least she didn't go on Letterman ...
he is most definitely incompetent, unqalified and corrup
Please explain to me why you think she's corrupt and incompetent.
I don't think that she's necessarily corrupt... or any more so than the average politician, but she has A LOT of knowledge to gain before she can even think of a run for the presidency.
From her speeches sounding like talking points mad-libs to her incredibly thin skin when it comes to playing the victim to her ignorance about foreign policy, she is definitely not ready for any higher office.
She seems to thrive on media attention, so I can see her becoming a financially successful personality in politics, but I can't see her ever getting any further in an elected office.

That's your opinion. and if you 2 are so smart why don't you go run for governor of your state. why don't you go and research all the money she saved Alaskan tax payers. She 's got way more experience then Obama ever had. when it comes to politics.

I've resigned my position as America's best-known governor. It's not that I didn't want to do work anymore. Honestly. I'm just tired of having to do it in the spotlight.
It hard to focus on the job when latenight comedians are making dirty jokes about young daughter. And I'm kind of a polarizing figure--like Jesus Christ, you know--so I keep having to deal with ethics complaints filed against me by my enemies. I can't work under these conditions!

Sara Palin deserved the treatment she received, and if she wanted the media to leave her family alone, she should have left them at home. She used them as a political tool, and got what she asked for. Remember dragging her young daughter to that hockey game where she was booed? I would not subject my children to that, and if up to that point I didn't know any better, that would have taught me to leave them at home. And, by the way, I guess it was OK to say Barack and Michelle Obama were Muslim terrorists, performing secret "terrorist fist jabs". :!:

I find it interesting that she thinks of herself as the best known governor since when. Now she's tired of the spotlight, she creates her own spotlight with some of the things she says.
So now she's going let a late night comedian influence her life please, if she wanted to protect her kids then leave them at home instead schlepping them out on the campaign trail. They needed to be in bed to go to school the next day.
Normal people who are these normal people she speaks of, everyone worries about their families so why should you become President. To become President is hard work and sacrifices some good some bad it comes with the job so suck it up and do the job of governor you worked so hard for.

I'm not convinced McCain would have won the election, but he would have given Obama a much better run his money. I had respected greatly McCain until he apparently made this decision almost like a roll of the dice. I think he looked at Obama and Clinton & knew that people wanted a change, and he felt, mistakenly, that he could infuse his campaign with a little fire by selecting a woman. Apparently, any woman--a woman who would ask his campaign to essentially lie about her husband's involvement in a secessionist group. To McCain's credit, that one was "no dice" with him. But, bad, bad move on his part in selecting her without a thorough vetting, although being a Democrat, I'm happy he made it.
The country and the Republican party need a candidate the people of the country see as fundamentally honest and above-board. Eight years of Bush--eight years of lies and propaganda washes--have left people pretty tired of obvious dishonesty and insults to our intelligence. Fundamentally, I guess, this is what bothers me most about Palin...she talks about how she doesn't want to pursue politics as usual, but I'm not sure what she means. She's been caught out in one lie after another...is politics as usual to her politics where one is held accountable for what one says? Everything she does and says points to her wishing to return to the Bush years where lies and deception are seen as SOP--that goals picked by the elite are so good and so holy that the means to these goals is immaterial. I think Obama won this election when he said things like, "Well, let me tell you how I believe you demonstrate your respect. You do it by telling the truth and keeping your word, so folks can know that where you stand today is where you'll stand tomorrow." And then telling a hard truth, but saying by working together, we'd make our goals. He spoke to people as if they were intelligent adults and comes across as fundamentally honest, missteps and all. He speaks and acts as if he cares more about the country than he does himself. Sarah Palin does not. Her speech and her actions are very "me-centric"--she makes noises about the country, but they don't come across to me and millions like me as being genuine. She's leaving Alaska for the sake of Alaskans she says, but we all know she's leaving Alaska for Sarah Palin's ambition.
I agree with what you have to say with one exception: I feel that Palin was pushed onto McCain as his running mate and that the "Republicans in charge" totally miscalculated America's ability to see through her.
McCain was a "Republican?" Most Republican's didn't want to vote for him at all.

Really ? why cos she was a republican. Nobody deserves the treatment her family got. Some of you you should really think about what your saying. What if it were your family ? How would you feel ? If you want to criticize her for her politics thats fine but to attack someone's family is just wrong especially someone with a child with downes sydrome.
I can only Imagine what the media or some of you would've said if she had left him at home.She' not a good mother or she's embarrassed ect. Like I said I can only imagine. Sorry But some of this shit really makes me sick it needs to stop.

They also weren't attacked day in and day out by the media like she was. And the thing is I woulnt vote for her as president I would rather see her in the house or senate.

When you release yourself and your family to the press, you're open to that type of treatment, period. Think about the celebs that refuse to show their kids in public, or even themselves. The actors that have moved to escape the press. They've actually taken action to protect themselves and their family from potential bad press. Palin deliberately brought her family out into the public, and the public acted like it typically would. I'm not excusing it, just pointing out the irony.
I have a child with Down syndrome. So does Palin. No, I'm not happy how she paraded her infant in front of the spotlight and threw herself to the Down syndrome community as "our savior" because she's in the same shoes. Pure garbage. At the same time, who really cares what I think about her public appearences? She went for the special needs vote, but anyone doing their homework would find that she denied extra funding for special needs for the state of Alaska. Enough for me to see right through the woman.
she's been investigated several times and if it wasn't for the fact she had the legislature on her side - she'd be done ... she already was found guilty of abuse of power and only through pushing it thru the legislature did they turn it back ...
he is most definitely incompetent, unqalified and corrup
Please explain to me why you think she's corrupt and incompetent.
well ... it's all over the news ... a simple search would show that she's been investigated several times for various abuses of power ...
as for incompetence - just look at every interview she's done ... her ignorance on topics doesn't make her incompetent - what makes her incompetent is that when told by experienced advisers that she needs to bone up on foreign affairs and other key issues - she chose to ignore them and go on a nationally televised interview unprepared ... it can be said that mccains campaign derailed right after her interview with katie couric ... she also went on SNL where she was being made fun of on live tv and she didn't even know it ... at least she didn't go on Letterman ...
So she's been investigated but she was found not guilty on 12 ethics violations . Ok I agree with you on foreign affairs she's weak no doubt, but that's still no reason to go after her family though.

I can only Imagine what the media or some of you would've said if she had left him at home.She' not a good mother or she's embarrassed ect. Like I said I can only imagine. Sorry But some of this shit really makes me sick it needs to stop.
They also weren't attacked day in and day out by the media like she was. And the thing is I woulnt vote for her as president I would rather see her in the house or senate.
When you release yourself and your family to the press, you're open to that type of treatment, period. Think about the celebs that refuse to show their kids in public, or even themselves. The actors that have moved to escape the press. They've actually taken action to protect themselves and their family from potential bad press. Palin deliberately brought her family out into the public, and the public acted like it typically would. I'm not excusing it, just pointing out the irony.
I have a child with Down syndrome. So does Palin. No, I'm not happy how she paraded her infant in front of the spotlight and threw herself to the Down syndrome community as "our savior" because she's in the same shoes. Pure garbage. At the same time, who really cares what I think about her public appearences? She went for the special needs vote, but anyone doing their homework would find that she denied extra funding for special needs for the state of Alaska. Enough for me to see right through the woman.
really - is it too hard to look yourself? I mean if you really think she's squeaky clean - don't you want to find out yourself?

she's been investigated several times and if it wasn't for the fact she had the legislature on her side - she'd be done ... she already was found guilty of abuse of power and only through pushing it thru the legislature did they turn it back ...
So she's been investigated but she was found not guilty on 12 ethics violations . Ok I agree with you on foreign affairs she's weak no doubt, but that's still no reason to go after her family though.

Look prfctlefts I like the now former governor of Alaska It's just I wouldn't want her to be in charge of this country or my state. Well even you can see that she has her weaknesses as a potential leader of this country since you say you wouldn't vote for her to become President.

I've decided to come on here -just to make other's "aware" - that there is in fact a deffinite alternate way of thinking. (Although the majority on here "go with the "majority flow" - just like a monthly "period." It's a good "college-try" on your part. However - people beleive in what they believe. Just like me.
