Palin has no substance or intelligence. Her moment of "flash-in-the-pan" fame is over.

You know, that makes a lot of sense. Considering the attention span of the average voter, it was a brilliant plan, really.

Bascailly palin is as alive as any one who is not a candidate now. Look at all the people jumping on the palin like bandwagon. Even Obama is now saying on wednesday he will unvail his plan to cut the deficit spending and debt.Doesn't sound like a dying idea to me really. I thnik perhaps isn;t the Pali haters hoping really. She is not a candidiate I would vote for but she has tremous influence as we saw in the mid-terms. When you loo at ex-=vide presdiential candidates or ven recent presidentail who do you see have more influence. Palin that is who.McCain;Kerry;Gors have little real polical influences on voters now days and looking at the past many names are forgotten.

She's "flaming out" because she's been on the news and everyone talks about her (liberals & conservatives) everyday and night? Does that make any sense?

As far as I know, Palin has only been on Fox News! Is Fox News a "liberal" news source?

Even the DumpMonkeys at democratic underground were getting sick of the Palin threads.

If and when she's out of the political limelight I wonder who Progressives will have their fits of outrage over?

Beck threads are kind of stale too. Hint, hint.

That's why they're totally obsessed with her.
I'd love to see her as head of the RNC.

Which is it and what part of the GOP not supporting her, do you not understand?

If ya don't want her talked about(and I understand your embarrassment )...don't post......or it looks like it's not only Democrats and Libs who are OBSSESSED

That's a pretty standard line about the whole Palin thing!!

What people who could say such a thing fail to see or understand is that it's not really Sara that's so scary at all but the fact that someone like her could be taken seriously as a major spokesperson by millions of people. That thought is very scary indeed. The idea that a person of very little substance and no ideas at all could even be considered as a long shot for President just reaffirms that the public discourse in America has sunk below any kind of acceptable standard.

That's the reason that progressive people who care about their country's future and direction get a little upset with the whole thing.
