Is this how a "STRONG FAMILY" acts????
I am sick of hearing about the Palins being a "strong family" I'm not sure I really know what that means, but it seems to give them a free ticket for a lot of negatives...
I just found this in an article from Time:

Just as Ms. Palin terminated employees on her way into office, she also let some go on the way out, including Mr. Cramer. When Ms. Palin completed her second and final term, in 2002, her stepmother-in-law, Faye Palin, was running to succeed her. It seemed like a good idea, except that Faye Palin supported abortion rights and was registered as unaffiliated, not Republican, people who remember the race said. Sarah Palin sided instead with Dianne M. Keller, a religious conservative and an ally on the City Council. Ms. Keller won.

Strikes me as odd that you would endorse your step-mother-in-law's opponent. I would think maybe if you didn't like her you should just not endorse anyone? but maybe that's just me. FYI, I wouldn't vote for my mother-in-law; but I wouldn't endorse her opponent...hmmm, maybe my family is "stronger" than the Palins?????

6. She's a party hack,
all the way.

Nothing of substance to her, just flapping mouth and doing what she's told.
