I'm so damned sick of her, I could scream. I cannot believe all these commentators and interviewers are allowing her to spew this garbage. Who cares what she thinks about anything?

Go home, Sarah. Am I alone in my thinking?

5. I missed it. She keeps dodging questions.
I'll say one thing, she's a master at dancing around the question.

3. She is delusional. Palin thinks politics is only the jibber jabber. She just talks in circles and
never answers questions. That is, in her book, the only requirement to be a politician. No wonder the Republicans are lost. They choose to push this type of light weight, naive, bullshitter.

4. I'm with ya
Edited on Wed Nov-12-08 06:12 PM by TheKentuckian
and am to the point where I'd actively support Ayers to head up the Department of Education just to push the morans of the edge.

Not to mention, he's probably a good fit for the job.

8. What's the deal with the media and Palin, post-election?
I certainly don't remember Kerry or Edwards getting much coverage after the '04 election, and that election was much closer than this one. It seems like Palin has been all over the place.

10. When has any losing VP Candidate been interviewed endlessly after the election is over???
This is such a crock of crapola.

I hope that perhaps this over-exposure will make everyone so sick of her that she cannot get elected to anything, ever...

13. When has any ex Presidential nominee?
McCain is getting way more helpful media than Gore and Kerry - but he's getting way less than Palin. The media did rehab Bob Dole after an awful run, even after he did a Viagra and a Pepsi commercial where he oogled a teen Britney Speers.

15. when has a major party vp candidate been unknown to the public until 60 days before election day
There's no conspiracy here. Just a combination of the media, having spent two years covering the presidential race non-stop having trouble kicking its addiction (something that a signficant segment of the public also is having trouble doing) and the absence of news coming from the Obama side which is maintaining a very tight control on who talks to the media and when. Palin, who was completely unknown until two months ago and who is somewhat "exotic" by normal political standards -- she looks, talks, and acts differently than your average national political figure -- is still a person of considerable interest to the public -- both those that despise her and those that love her -- and thus to the media.

And frankly, the more she yammers on, the more she becomes the next Newt -- the person Democrats will rally against at the drop of a hat. In that regard, she is the gift that keeps on giving.

16. You are not alone!!
My sentiments exactly. My poor husband walked in the door from work and found me screaming at the TV at her. He headed outside with the dog for cover. It is outrageous for them to be giving her all this time, basically carte blanche, after she wouldn't give interviews, still hasn't released medical records, every other word out of her mouth is a lie of some sort. Where is Edward R. Murrow when we need him (the one who finally had the guts to stand up to and stop swallowing the garbage being spewed by Sen. Joe McCarthy, I believe.) We have to let the MSM know that their coverage of her in this way is just not acceptable in any way, shape or form.
