" I think it's safe to say that the bloom is off the rose, the lipstick smeared beyond the tattoo liner of the pitbull..

I hope she grows old (and that's not far off) thinking about what an ignorant and phoney little sidekick for the boys club she was, and how we all watched as she pretended she wasn't. "

" Hey! She did a GREAT job with Katie Couric this week. If you couldn't follow that answer on why it's better to spend $700B to bail out Wall vs. Main, that's YOUR problem. I mean, she made it so clear. It's jobs ya know, plus health care and ya gotta include jobs and reform, and of course lower spendin' and taxes. It's all there. Trade. Jobs. We're sick about it, just sick. ...Study hard baby, Thursday looms. Not sure if I which I will do more of, cry or laugh. "

" If Sarah Palin was on the job in her home state of Alaska, then why were there a plethora of stories mentioning the famous "Where's Sarah" buttons worn at the capitol. And honey, Alaska is a state, but not its own country - people from other states can discuss issues confronting Alaska - I know your governor has been hoping to be crowned Queen of a Free Alaska, but it isn't likely to happen. In the meantime, all of us intelligent voters plan to keep an eye on the doings of Sarah in Alaska. "

" So, we like to hide sarah huh? I am sure that she wants a lot hidden about her abusive powers, lack of knowledge about much of everything.
Not to blink an eye when asked by McCain to be his running mate, means that she doesn't give even her family much thought. Not the Values I want my childrens children to see.
Thanks, but No Thanks Sarah "




Stop pretending Terri wrote on Sep 27, 2008 8:19 PM:

" To even think you know what goes on in Alaska or with Sarah Palin. The governor has an office in Anchorage, as well as the Governor's "mansion" in Juneau. She stays in the Juneau home when the legislature is in session and works out of the Anchorage office when it's not. Her Wasilla home is an hour's drive from her Anchorage office. The per diem she charged the state was for the extra costs incurred as governor. You're just another Outsider pretending they know Palin and Alaska, probably never even set foot in the state. "




Terri Holland wrote on Sep 27, 2008 8:10 PM:

" Because Palin only wants to look the part. She has no real boundaries, will say and do anything for the attention, even sacrifice her children for her own glory-- and then gets bored with the actual tedium of the job at hand. I know in Utah, our governor is in the capitol city everyday. I know I go to work everyday and don't think ignoring my duties at work, while charging the state a per diem is moral or reasonable. But, Palin makes up the rules as she goes along. "




Anna wrote on Sep 27, 2008 6:18 PM:

" Can some tell me why Sarah spent such little time in the Governor's mansion and so much time at her house? Does she suffer from depression that keeps her away from work? I find this very odd because no other governor in the lower 48 has a work schedule anything close to her's. What was she doing at home all that time? Also, why does her husband spend so much time involved in her state business? This is also very unusual. We don't do things like this in the lower 48. "

Umm, wrong! It's what Rove and Cheny are counting on! "

" I am concerned about every vice presidential candidate - but in this election, it is simply MORE LIKELY that McCain could die in office, than Obama - so the VP pick becomes more of an important issue, leaving me wondering about Palin's ability to immediately elad the nation. Can she? Nope. "

" Ben,
The previous presidents who were within 2 years of McCains age dind't have a history of melanoma. Read about Melanoma. (High-risk: greater than 50% risk of recurrence. High-risk melanoma has a high probability of having already spread to local or distant sites at the time of treatment)
Fact is..McCain needs a VP running mate who can step in if he dies. PALIN IS NOT THE PERSON TO DO THAT!! Nobody is wishing him dead...it is a fact that he has been treated several times for Melanoma.
PALIN IS OUT OF HER ELEMENT AND SHOULD STEP DOWN. "

" The staged photo ops are a joke. Step out into the real world and let the citizens decide. Do not hide from the cameras. As said before, the VP doesn't get a free ride from negative press. VP's have to have stamina. Sarah.....In case you do not know, the Vice-President presides over the Senate!
(A Republican for Obama) "

" This agism thing that the Dems have successfully planted in the minds of many is scary. This idea that McCain is just such an old fossil and is more-than-likely to kick the bucket at any time. Excuse me, but how many Presidents have we had that assumed the office within 2 years of McCain's age? And some were extremely noteworthy during their time in office? Seems like a desperate grab by liberals to create this artificial sense of logic that we can almost count on McCain dying in office and Palin assuming the office... "




Terri Holland wrote on Sep 26, 2008 7:54 PM:

" Ben: I was a McCain supporter until he announced Sarah as his running mate with zero vetting and having met her only once - the reason we compare Palin to Obama is because she is McCain's biggest liability and with his age and health issues, it is not unlikely to see her as POTUS - which send chills down my spine -- only you and Palin don't seem to realize that.

Biden is going to have her for lunch -- Palin Burgers all around. "




Ben Compton wrote on Sep 26, 2008 4:28 PM:

" The constant comparison between Obama and Palin is interesting; who exactly is running for President? Better to have an unqualified suit (he served a grand total of 182 days in his job, folks..the rest was spent campaigning) in control of the country than an unqualified person as VP?! As far as Obama's "ideas"? None were original, and many were so far-fetched that they should have started out with "once upon a time!" "

" Palin's and embarrassment to our state! Maybe Alaska will quit romancing her and realize she pulled the wool over your eyes. All the fluff and no stuff.
Just and embarrassment. If she didn't have committee's she would have failed long ago. McCain/Romney 08 "




Bruce wrote on Sep 26, 2008 3:40 PM:

" Are alaskans just going knee jerk vote for her because she is your governor or are you going to vote using your cranium? She cannot handle foreign affairs, does not know the intracicies of the economy and BTW, while Sen. Obama had to win primaries to get the nomination she was a cynical pick to get the women's vote. Your state needs to rise up and vote opposite to what is expected and send a message that you are not sheep and follow the I VOTE FOR MY STATE REP ATTITUDE. Be on the winning side for once. "




Terri Holland wrote on Sep 26, 2008 3:06 PM:

" Ben, you are confused or either misinformned. If you do a bit of research you will find Obama has many suggestions, ideas and policies, all well documented and accessible on the internet. You want a treat -- watch Palin's interview with Couric and then watch Obama's -- I have no respect for people who claim he is an empty suit or lacks vision or platforms and much respect for those who simply disagree with him. As for tearing Palin apart -- if you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. "




kday wrote on Sep 26, 2008 10:46 AM:

" Ben, would you have accepted an offer for a job as VP if you didn't know about the country, international affairs, law, history, current events even? Sarah Palin should have known her limitations and refused the offer. She is excedingly unqualified. She is making a fool of herself and by proxy....Alaskans and others who support her. She should have stayed where she was doing ok and not exposed herself and family to the scrutiny of the American publicand press. . She is responsible for that......not the rest of us!!! Put the blame where belongs. "




Ben Compton wrote on Sep 26, 2008 10:22 AM:

" YES! Let's get her out there so the press can have thier fun ripping her to shreds! And, while they're at it..continue to try to brainwash us into buying into Obama as the next Messiah with his beautiful voice and motivating speeches wherein he says....nothing. "Things are going to change!" OK. Great. How? (Besides the clouds parting, the sun illuminating us with lots of birds and rainbows are whatever). History is full people that could give a good speech and made for terrible leaders...but at least they were actually saying something! Obama can't even manage that! "




kday wrote on Sep 26, 2008 9:19 AM:

" Sarahs ineptitude on foreign affairs and the economy at the national level were pretty well exposed in her interviews with Katie Couric. Katie Couric is smart and knows the issues. She asked smart and reasonable questions of Sarah and she got unintelligible confusing and run on sentence responses from Sarah. If she was doing a good job in Alaska...please ask her to come back home. She scares the bejesus out of me when I think that she could be one melanoma or heartbeat away from the presidency. GO OBAMA "
