Though I agree that Limbaugh is a hypocrite vile creature I find Palin "real" unlike Pelosi who is only concerned with being,looking "cute" and even her smiles look rehearsed not to mention doesnt do a thing but speeches.

I've got to commend her preparing food in a suit wearing hills - amazing.

She is just a very average person with a very average life, I do not think people like her are qualified for a high level executive position.
ITA The Matt Lauer is even worse than Katie's.

All she talked about was her clothes, rumors, bickering with McCain aids, etc. There was not a single thing that she talked about that effected me or other fellow Americans. Then she wonders why she was sent home to Alaska. Put a fork in this women's career.
Yes and doesn't she remind you of the teen beauty contestant at times when she is searching deep into her vast knowledge bank for an answer.

I didnt watch the interview, but I've felt this about her too. I dont feel sorry for her though, because she certainly could expand her horizons if she were so inclined, but she seems comfortable as is. She didnt seem interested in growing beyond the small town city council approach to governing, and she expressed resentment and defensiveness against "book smart" types (interviewers and such). That inflexibility is what limits her. She's a genuine populist, but populists do best locally.

So much hate for Gov. Palin why? because she decide to keep her baby instead of the doing the liberal thing and have an abortion. Obama speaks likes porky pig when he does not have a teleprompter but since he is a ultra liberal he gets a pass.

Gov. Palin will come back and stronger then before. Obama better not raised taxes or we will be gone in 4 years.

Wow ... you have no sense of comedy. I thought the sketch on Weekend Update when she responded to people who think that Hillary Clinton is a B was brilliant.

B's get things done.

And she knew the capital of Vermont as a result of the B nuns she had.

Lighten up ... it was an SNL bit. Oh wait, were you watching it on EWTN or something? Well, in that case I can see where the old crones would get angered. As the late great Emily Letilla said oh so long ago,

"Never mind"

Comfortable as is..... Let's think about that. She went from city council to mayor to governor. She's 44 and she has a big family... She has shown more ambition than 99% of the country and yet somehow she is still considered happy with the status quo....

I missed it as well...purposely. I did catch a bit that some station replayed (not certain who) and it was interesting to hear the Governor redefine her feminism statements again! Wow. Matt Lauer, I believe was doing the interview...there was a lot about baseballs as well. ~shrug

That's right. I mean, anyone who actually has their own thoughts and don't see things like many others should be considered a complete ass****. That about sums up what so many of you think. Why are so many of you still hangin onto the HATE that you have? The damn election is over. Get over it. I mean, Obama is going to be President. What else do you want? Oh yeah, you would not be happy unless everyone rolls over and completely agrees with your views. It is sickening.
