I can think of a couple of them but that doesn't really translate to "quite a few". Where I'm at, most people who keep up with politics are a bit disenchanted. I think that there is some support for her going on to supposedly bigger and better things than finishing out her term, but I think she'll be remembered primarily as a quitter.

Oh really! The father of Palin's grandchild is insignificant?
Now, now, is that family values????

Perhaps they meant to say, "inconvenient." Levi is a nineteen year-old kid from a small town in Alaska; his naivete' and youth are showcased when he
simply speaks the truth as he has lived it. Regardless, as long as Sarah Palin is public figure, Levi will be part of her life and in the spotlight himself. And
it appears that "family values" is "more honored in the breach than in the observance."
Get real. You know that there are more than a couple. Maybe even more than don't like her.
If what you say is true then you should be very happy to have her gone before things get worse. Doesn't that make you happy?
A lot of people like her in Alaska. But southward bound specified people who know about Alaska politics. A lot of people who live here don't really keep up with what's going on in Juneau. So a lot of people who live here like her for the same reasons that you do. She says the right things to them.
But at least almost everyone who lives here knows more about the issues concerning the so called bridges to nowhere and the natural gas pipeline than some of the lower 48ers who have been posting about those things (which was my point). My favorite example of this is how janelle or someone was praising the gov. over her 180 on the bridge to the Ketchikan airport.
