Palin ADN interview - Still not apologising for the vile things she said about Obama
Instead she just rambles on in pretty unintelligible fashion in response to a really deferential question, 4:00 mins in, which wasn't on the transcript they posted:

http://community.adn.com/?q=adn/blog/24417

Q I don't know if you know, but along the way I think some Democrats have probably had some hurt feelings about the campaign. Do you think it's going to be a difficult relationship with them?

A It shouldn't be difficult and I hope that everybody, you know, that we got um, everybody's big boys and big girls in this world of politics, on a state level, everybody's got to, um, not take things personally... we have all got to be able to work together.

Great. So she can falsely accuse Obama of "palling around with terrorists", after which threats on his and his family's life increased, and we're supposed to be "big boys and girls" and "work together"

1. I'm so done with her. After Tuesday last week, I was still in "make fun of Sarah mode".
This week, I'm done. I don't give a shit and won't bother reading articles or watching videos of her.

2. Inclined to agree - Global recession, 2 wars etc way more important
than watching some random politician dribble on

3. Can you feel it?
I thought Sarah Palin was a rising GOP star.

However, after she's been gone--you can just feel that this country is finished with her.

She had her 15 minutes, and many were caught up in that. However, America has had a break
from her, and with the hoopla not fogging the truth about her--it's apparent that she was
a dumb box of rock and a flash in the pan.

There will always be a lunatic-fringe contingent of Republicans who think she's their political savior. Those
people are the reason that the Republicans have totally lost power, and when the Republicans re-organize, they
will be left standing outside of the circle. Being a rabid nutjob is oh-so yesterday.

Sarah Palin---the Tonya Harding of politics.

4. Wow, she doesn't get the irony, does she? She's out there calling
McCain staffers jerks because they ratted on her, but thinks Dems should not take anything personally, and be big boys and girls?

She has done little more than whine since she was brought on board, and it looks like she thinks she is the only one that is allowed to do that.

5. They should ask if it bothers her that such allegations caused the # of threats to Obama to rise
per the Secret Service. As if anything will get through that thick skull of hers...

7. The full interview is here
and it ain't pretty http://www.adn.com/sarah-palin/story/584193.html.


Sarah doesn't know the meaning of the word humility. I don't see one word in here that sounds like an apology or even an acknowledgement that she might have presented Alaska in a bad light or caused problems on the campaign trail. Nothing is her fault, not even her loss. I am praying that the legislature doesn't cave to her every whim in January. She's got to be stopped.

8. It's generally not nice to wish for someone's career to be destroyed, but
but since the Republicans are so good at trashing people, I hope they give this witch their full attention.

No federal money for them.

12. Palin will be thrown under the bus by GOP operatives soon enough
Look for Romney operatives to shove her into various political traps in Alaska. She may take Stevens' senate seat but will have to run within 90 days from that time. They will destroy her politically at that point.

She is a ditz that outside from the anti-choice, anti-science base is (as David Brooks even admits) a cancer on the GOP.

Do I want her to run in 2012. You betcha. She would wilt any chances the GOP will have to pick up some seats after they try to blame Obama for not performing miracles on the economy and the progress of the wars. Romney and the GOP elite want the spotlight too badly to let her survive.

Palin has dropped 20 points in approval ratings since her VP attempt and a lot of light has shined on her many scandals. I am also guessing Alaskans are over the Palin drama.
