I was just having this conversation last night with a relative. It is very disheartening that a person such as Palin could ever possibly be perceieved as a qualified candidate. Quite depressing to realize that there is a portion of the populace that actually thinks and I use the word loosely, that the fate of this nation should be put in her hands.

I can only assume that they relate to her ignorance and ditzy down home BS and feel that if she could do it, they can do it too.

What they are too blind to understand is that she is playing them like a fiddle. She quit her job to rake in the cash that the very same ignorant supporters are willing to give her. Palin has gotten rich off of the stupidity of many. I can just imagine how she laughs at them in private and winks at her hubby about how simple it is to BS your way to notoriety.

She has developed and ever-expanding of enthusuastic supporters who see her admirable attributes, and like what they see.

Okay ...I'm convinced now... that you are a Palin groupie, most likely wandered here from one of her tweety facebooky fan websites.

Palin has about as much chance of getting to the Oval Office as Paris Hilton, so you go on and fun with your fantasy. Whatever floats your boat.

Nobody really needs to go out of their way to criticise Palin - she embarrasses herself quite easily with no help from anyone -how could anyone forget her CRINGEWORTHY performances in interviews and debates when she actually has to think on her feet? Simple fact is, she can't.

As long as she's just spouting her empty rhetoric to her existing fan base from a nice "safe" platform like her own website, some Tea Party Rally or Faux News she's fine.

Let's see her peddling her stunning political opinions in less friendly territory and see how she fares Alas, she never will........................

What is sadder is your comment about melanin.
I think even Sarah would give a for that one.

Blacks only constituted 13 percent of the electorate. Obama won the largest share of white support of any Democrat in a two-man race since 1976. But what put him over the top:

A stunning 54 percent of young white voters supported Obama, compared with 44 percent who went for McCain, the senator from Arizona. In the past three decades, no Democratic presidential nominee has won more than 45 percent of young whites.

Winner all around, and I most enthusiastically embrace her candidacy and tenure as president.

Any questions??
Yes. Bristol, don't you have to get back to dance rehearsal?

Palin does embody spirt

"City", LOL! 5000 people, and she had a city manager to do the day to day work. All she did was cut checks.

Name on great accomplishment from her governorship.

I think she would do a much better job that our currant pres. Do I think she would win over another Republican nominee? No, I don't. But if it were down to just her and the Obomb, yes she can!

So if Palin can't get the republican nomination, how can
she even run against Obama

The one Republican that could beat Obama hands down
is Ron Paul.
