Top Republican Governor Has Heard No Talk Of Removing Palin From The Ticket
Gov. Mark Sanford of South Carolina said that he had heard no discussion about removing Ms. Palin from the ticket. In fact, he said, he thought her daughter's pregnancy would not hurt her with voters.

"People are looking for real," he said in an interview. "Real means blemishes, real means warts, real means real. These family imperfections make people say, 'That family isn't so different from my family.'"

Early reaction among women at the Republican convention to the news about Bristol Palin's pregnancy was almost uniformly supportive.

1. Did he just use warts as an example of positive?
Did he? I'm just checking to make sure I'm not having some sort of weird flashback. Warts?

2. They won't, and they will try to blame the Democrats for "attacking palin's family"
when in fact the real issues on palin are, is she qualified to be president, and why did mccain choose her to be his VP?

5. The baby isn't what bothers most people...it's the lying and coverup
just long enough to make it through the election that burns me.

I realize they are accustomed to this kind of operation, but I'm not. Tell me the truth and I'll deal with it.

I heard O'Reilly mention Petraeus as a replacement for Palin. That's all we need...Maverick McGoo and his General!

Bomb, bomb, bomb....

8. Round one is over we need to focus on troopergate and the fact that
Edited on Mon Sep-01-08 09:08 PM by Kdillard
she lied about the bridge to nowhere. How she destroyed the economy of the town when she was Mayor. It is amazing how much these people will defend their own and sell out everyone else. We must make her an albotros around McCain's neck. Link her with his bad policies for the american people.

9. The possibility was mentioned briefly on Larry King
So it's at least on the media's minds.

12. Isn't that like the baseball owner giving the manager a vote of confidence?
which normally means the manager is fired before the week is out.
