Palin is nasty and vindictive and she reaps what she sows.
Sad, but true.

Having said all that, I think she'd be one lousy president. I don't say that because she is a woman. I say that because she has views that would make her a lousy president. Dan Quayle would have been a lousy president too, and he was a man... still is, probably.
I agree, but from one middle aged fart to another you have to admit:

She was the Hottest Governor from the Coldest State!!!

She is an attractive women, but sorely unqualified for any position higher than a secretary, and that's pushing it. What's worse than the fact that she is extremely ignorant in world issues and politics in general, is that she revels and takes pride in her ignorance. It reminds me of those middle age people that brag about the fact that they forgot everything they learned in high school.

To kill the cancer sometimes it takes chemo. No one says it will be easy but its going t be worth it. Obama is too smooth by half in keeping the charade going. Palin/Bachman will fallover themselves and expose the puppeters behind the curtain.

She would never win, but nevertheless, we are freaked that this country has sunk to such anti-intellectual depths and the dumbed down group is large enough to actually have a spokesperson. I have always educated myself on various subjects and issues. Common sense and intellectual curiosity makes for a well rounded person. What I have forgotten, the likes of a person like Palin will never have the capability of learning. When nitwits equal to Palin in the smarts department, come up with the nonsensical remark that people are afraid of her, it is only nonsensical within the context of which they speak. You're damn right we're afraid...afraid of what a self-serving idiot such as she stands for. She represents the new low that is being given "look up to" status. If she is being looked up to, just how sadly down in the dregs of intellect, common sense and integrity are the people that are doing the looking up? That is what is scary. Like her? She warrants the same amount of affection as a boil.

you guys hate much? palin is not qualified for any position above secretary? what does that say about obama who had even LESS executive experience than palin does?

the best way to find out who the left is afraid of is to look at who they bash the most. and since palin is being bashed like a pinata at a mexican birthday party, the left must truly fear her.

Palin has more guts than the whole Whitehouse gang put together, that is why people like her she is a real person, she's a mother, wife, politician and all that conects with the average person outside of the northeast and Calif. When you live is la,la land of the northeast and everybody is like got to be just alike to get along.

Ever notice the only defense people have of Palin is bringing up Obama. It's like they can't defend her on her own merits, they have to resort to trashing another person. If someone accused me of being retarded, my defense wouldnt be, well at least I'm smarter than so and so.

Both are contributory towards our country's demise.
Bingo. I still never get why some folks constantly defend her although they have never met her EITHER. What compels people to defend her every guffaw??? I get that folks do this sort of ignorant defending of politicians of every sort, but the Palin sector seems particularly defiant and very frightened to deal with any other perspective than their own.

OMG...who would want to. Unfortunately she shoves her inconsequential opinion, remarks, chalk on a blackboard voice and media seeking ways in everyone's face. All of a sudden she is the defender of everybody's Constitutional rights. All one has to do is listen to her unimaginative and rehearsed rhetoric and read any of her asinine comments to have this woman pegged. Not rocket science needed to read the essence of Palin, it's not all that deep.
