I have several relatives and friends voting for Obama. Just gotta put up with 'em I suppose, and hope some day they see the error of their ways.

Is this her second marriage. A former mother in law and a current mother in law might not be considered to have the same level of reaction.

There is a difference between being worried about losing, and being worried (or better yet scared) that people will destroy America even more by voting McCain/Palin.

If the later part of the above is what you mean, then you sure are "telling as it is". I am flat out terrified to tell the truth.

Funny you didn't link to the article, b/c it's actually quite positive about Palin:

Sarah Palin's mother-in-law uncertain about how she'll vote

Quote:
"I'm not sure what she brings to the ticket other than she's a woman and a conservative. Well, she's a better speaker than McCain," Faye Palin said with a laugh. "People will say she hasn't been on the national scene long enough. But I believe she's a quick study."

She said people doubted Sarah Palin when she ran for City Council, but that her daughter-in-law had a "singular focus."

"She was out there with [then-young son] Track, pulling him around from house to house in a wagon," she said.

Keep trying, all of your BS won't win an election for you.

What a crock..! If you haven't got anything better than that, go look at a Hillary picture.

Mitt and Tim were in on the deal all along, and not upset or surprised at all, so try another angle. With a little time and effort, you cam surely make up something else....

There were links to this article in two separate threads, this one (if you bothered to read the previous responses) and one of mine.
'Quite positive'? I would say 'damning with faint praise.'

Don't know. Just saying there is a reason that mother in laws have the reputation of being tough to please on both sides of a marriage. The answer is that many are near impossible to satisfy.
