1. She's probably in denial.

She seems to be part of that group of people who brush something off, ignore it, pretend it's not there...and somehow that actually works for them! Facts? What facts? :)

3. I do agree with you...
But she seems to be the sort of person who has been able to charm and smarm her way through life. I'm wondering if she has shown any weakening now that she is being called on some of her baloney.

11. My guess is no.
She is too sure of "God's plan" for her.

12. Level heads would say yes but her head ain't level...
Maybe she's too stupid to realize she's turned into a joke???

16. I've heard that...
I'm wondering if it's because of her choking.. or maybe it's the reverse: She is so cocksure of herself that they are afraid she'll blurt out some kinda nonsense, or worse! Hey, maybe it's both:eyes:

6. I had two girls from Juneau check into hotel where i work
yesterday and I said boy your state is getting alot of attention and they said oh not where we are...and i thought must be right that sarah is never at the capital!

they said all the stuff going on is in wasilla and anchorage.

I have to be careful about pissing off customers so i didn't say much but as i led them to their room (we are small expensive hotel like B & B in WA) I asked them so do you like sarah and they said she is passionate about what she believes in and they liked her.

as i went back to my desk I am thinking Alaska is mostly republican state and these girls must be pro life and happy with the money the state sends them.

13. Palin does not handle anything.
She is handled. That's what handlers are for.

17. I heard that.............
what is the purpose of watching comedy with the sound turned down?? Why even watch it at all? Why say you did?

Honestly, the woman alarms me.

18. That is kinda what I am wondering...
Is she fully aware of all the negative stuff swirling around? Are they insulating her? Or is she just in a state of denial of her own making...

19. She will blame it on someone else.
Edited on Sun Sep-21-08 03:11 PM by Cleita
That's what prevaricating sociopaths do.

21. My guess is she sees anyone who criticizes her as the "bad" person
I'm sure the campaign does shield her too, but what about her kids? They are just left without parental support to deal with NE stories and the reporters digging dirt on them. Nice.
