From now on, It's "Alaska secessionist Sarah Palin" -- methinks this is what destroys her.

[stevietheman]

Independents and centrists (not to mention paleoconservatives) tend to be very strong unionists, and her belonging to the Alaska Independence Party is not going to sit well with them.

1. Remember who we are talking to. They may think sessionist is a vegetarian.

Just say Palin wants Alaska to break away from the US.

Not untrue.

2. Yes, your quote and the line someone else on DU thought of here

that "Palin wants to take a star away from our flag!" ought to go over real well with the multitudes!

3. Wish they'd/news mention more current connections.

I'm somewhere between thinking it's dominionist danger, or just typical Alaska vs lower 48 sentiment they all have. They don't want us telling them what to do.
