Is Palin broke? I wonder what her mad scramble for money is?

[CK_John]

Has to cover up by setting up Bristol as a lobbyist. Are they loosing the house and Todd's snow machine business?

Did stop supporting her and the kids.

[Rabrrrrrr]

1. She's scrambling for money?

What did I miss?

[hobbit709]

2. Near as I can tell, she's ALWAYS been greedy

[gateley]

10. That was going to be my response. I agree. Greed. Just like most of Republicans. nt

[Blue Owl]

3. She looks like the type who would scramble for money

She probably thinks money can buy her happiness, just like every other Repuke.

[DrDan]

8. they should be more like the D's, shouldn't they

be more concerned about the rights of the citizens, and particularly their supporters.

Damn - I sure am glad our party is not greedy.

[liberal N proud]

4. Maybe she is just following Rick Warren and his money making scheme

[NJmaverick]

5. She is a republian greed is in her DNA

[DrDan]

6. she is riding her popularity . . . not hard to understand

can't blame her - she has little chance to ever be this popular again

[Auggie]

18. Right -- cashing in on her 15 minutes

[sui generis]

7. clearly couldn't afford to buy a new sun visor

that or magic markers were cheaper.

9. She's not broke.

I think she's just shoring up some money to fight future legal battles. Get while the gettin's good, make hay while the sun shines, whatever cliche works.

She has short shelf life. I think some bad stuff is going to happen to her this year.

11. Blithering Idiot has JUST KNOWN that she deserved all that money all along...

ever since she was CHEATED out of that Miss Caribou Tundra pageant crown or whatever it was.

[notadmblnd]

12. Same as all the others, greed.

13. Blagojevich Syndrome

It is the "Blagojevich Syndrome". You know how these types are, right? They constantly wine-and-dine with various celebrities/politicians/power-brokers at what can only be described as Saddam-Hussein-style palace complexes. (Yet the media just identifies these places by town/city name and state only. How cute.) Anyways, so at the lower end of the spectrum, the little fish that is, your Palins, Blagojeviches, and what not, they get all upset and want a bigger piece of the pie.

It's not that she doesn't have money, it's that she wants more. Sort of a politician's version of "Keeping up with the Joneses".

Palin: Cheney has a leer jet?! I want one too!

[Bucky]

16. Perfectly said.

I'd love to see both of them on The Apprentice.

[FSogol]

14. She's tasted Neiman Marcus and she wants MORE! n/t

[Bucky]

15. She's a working class Republican with aspirations for nouveau richeness

I've seen a gazillion souls like this. It's her shot at a little gold, which no doubt will help fund her runs in 2012 (when she barely loses to Mitt Romney) and 2016 (when she reinacts Dan Quayle's 1996 performance).

17. they got to make it look like Bristol has a job

and an income for the child support lawsuit.
