Palin: Alaska ‘wouldn’t stand’ for Scott Brown
Source: Boston.com

Sarah Palin said yesterday that while Massachusetts may “put up with” Senator Scott Brown, the conservatives in her home state of Alaska “wouldn’t stand for” him. Palin, in an interview on Fox Business Network, was asked whether the Massachusetts Republican was “on notice” for siding with Democrats on several key votes.

“Well, you know, take the consideration, though, that that's Massachusetts,” Palin said. “Perhaps they’re not going to look for such a hard-core constitutional conservative there, and they're going to put up with Scott Brown and some of the antics there.”

Palin and Brown have never been particularly close. Toward the end of Brown’s campaign in January, the SEIU launched a $685,000 ad campaign seeking to link Brown to Palin. But the former vice presidential nominee never appeared in Massachusetts, and Brown did not ask for her help.

“I would have if he had requested it,” Palin told Fox News after Brown’s victory.

3. Er...its New England, not Alaska. Oh, I forgot. We are not part of the "real America".
I happen to live in Connecticut. I still don't get why we put up with Lieberman...

8. Okay, I have to ask. Does the word "conservative" mean RAPE?"
“Well, you know, take the consideration, though, that that's Massachusetts,” Palin said. “Perhaps they’re not going to look for such a hard-core constitutional conservative"

9. What is wrong with this woman?
Is she really this unaware?

Scott Brown is Mass. problem, not hers. The voters put him there, they have to deal with him.

BTW, does anyone know what people from MA think of Senator Ken Doll?

23. He's a media-whore just like Palin, using every possible chance to get
his face in front of Boston News cameras.

EXAMPLE: He was on the scene with John Kerry to introduce Solicitor General Kagan to the Senate Judiciary committee, because Kagan USED to be at Harvard Law school, which is in Mass, and which Brown did NOT attend. Not to worry, Brown is not on the Judiciary Committee, either. BUT THEN Brown voted against Kagan in the final confirmation vote in the Senate.

Talk about Chutzpah! Talk about balls!

11. Who cares Sarah....
That's Alaska, has nothing to do with Massachusetts...is she really that dumb? Does she think they get a vote?


This is just a "not conservative enough" warning...I hope he doesn't buckle...he seems to do pretty much what is best instead of doing what he's told...

12. 'Conservative' used to mean something different...
There was a time when "conservative" meant Libertarian. Nowadays, if you aren't associated with the far Christian Right, then you are a commie-Liberal, minority-loving abortion doctor

17. Not only that
She left midterm not to "avoid becoming a lame-duck governor" but to build up her little love-fest with the Religious Right with hope for a 2012 candidacy.

and he paid my appearance fee, travel and hotel for the family. The woman does not come cheap, she only looks it.

21. To Give The Republican His Due...
To give the Devil (Scott Brown) his due, I don't think that he's going to quit before his senatorial term is up. Had the Wasilla Diva been elected to his seat, would she still be sitting in it or would she have resigned already?

29. What "due?" I'd love for him to quit. Besides,
with all due respect, you really have no idea what Brown would do if his legal fees were mounting the longer he stayed in office and he could start making millions as soon as he resigned. Brown probably doesn't even know what he would do under those circumstances. My guess is he, too, would go for the money. tho I don't know if his wife may be wealthy. If she is, he'd probably go for power.

24. Is Sarah "reloading"? Or just doing her typical "freeloading"?
As if Mass cares, as if Alaska cares about Brown, either!

What is she talking about? Even the exact words she voiced displeasure with Brown is hard to follow.

25. In Sarah's world, everyone who kisses her ass is in - apparently
Scott Brown didn't do that, so her wrath is turned towards him. She turns my stomach.

Yes, Sarah, please keep talking. You are the gift that keeps giving.

28. She has no idea what the Constitution says. She claimed it limits marriage to a man and a woman.
Hell, even the Bible doesn't limit marriage.

Why does anyone listen to this fool, let alone act as though what she says is news?

As for boston.com, all local Boston media shills for the Brown turd. they must have thought this story would help him.

Only then will she understand what Alaskans will and will not put up with.
