Palin calls Bush a major obstacle for campaign
Republican ticket targets administration in bid to boost poll numbers

Video updated 3:31 p.m. PT, Fri., Oct. 24, 2008

GREEN, Ohio - President Bush’s unpopularity is the No. 1 problem for the Republican presidential ticket, vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin said in an interview airing Friday, breaking sharply with the president as the campaign enters its final days.

Palin made her remarks in an interview Wednesday with Brian Williams, anchor of “NBC Nightly News.” Beginning with that interview and continuing in newspaper interviews and campaign speeches, Palin and Republican presidential nominee John McCain have made it clear that they are determined to disassociate themselves from the president, who registered only a 22 percent approval rating in a New York Times poll released this week.

“We’re up against a lot,” said Palin, the governor of Alaska. “We’re up against a very unpopular president, Bush’s administration right now, and those who want to link us to that administration.”

12. Who the heck does she think she is, to talk about President Bush?
I mean, really this woman is so obnoxious.

Like someone else said, she's like someone who comes in a neighborhood bar one night and thinks she's part of the group.

She's a nobody, and she talks about Bush like she's a twenty year senator.
