Inside Politics Weekend: Hot for Palin

My kids think I should run for President. I would have everyone make the bed they slept in, clean up their messes,always tell the truth, and treat everyone with respect. Maybe having a Mom in the White House isn't such a bad idea after all.

DON'T fall for Palin's hockey mom spirit. You need to look beyond the hype. In a Slate article it was shown she approved the bridge to nowhere but when Congress killed it she still got the SAME AMOUNT of money for "other" projects. She wants to ban books in the library. She believes women/girls victims of rape or incest should be forced to have their baby. She says she is frugal, yet she had 198 million in earmarks, which is the highest per capita in the country. She believes in climate change but doubts humans activities in it. And best of all she votes for abstinence only education. Wonder if her and Bristol are re accessing that one! PLEASE do your homework before you vote! She gave a great speech and I was enthused. But once I started digging...the woman turns my stomach. ps McCain is accepting money from Lobbyists and Obama isn't. How 'bout them apples

Coming from Chicago....She looks pretty clean. 80% like her in her home state. That says a lot to me. NARAL does not like her because they said she is a man. LOL!! NARAL has been working so hard to turn women into men and men into woman for so long they don't know which way is up.

To Lisa117: did you mean "reassessing?" You mis-typed from your Dem. talking point memo. What exactly did you dig up, in your research? Why did you not share your findings with us? The One is in a pickle-he's Chicago corrupt, and he snubbed HRC, a woman. Palin is a natural achiever. Didn't need a big degree from a fancy school. Looks got her in the door, but then she had to perform. She does have the potential to be our Maggie Thatcher. Read the Brit. news stories and the biographies-Maggie was from a poor family, beautiful, used her looks to get in the door---and the rest is history.

Lisa and the Dems (and especially their media hacks) are running scared, will do and say ANYTHING to take Sarahcuda down. Best to just ignore them. B Hussein and his obamatrons are waking up to the new America, where straight talkers and hockey moms have no patience for the left's BS. We've decided that we've had it watching liars like Obama and Biden, and their media enablers, celebrity endorsers, and criminal funders dismantle this great nation bit by bit. Kiss it goodbye Obama, elections over.

Has anyone pionted out that Mrs. Obama was cheered for bring a baby to a job interview and being a full time working Mom. Why is that great, but wrong for Mrs. Palin to be doing the same thing???

Democrats and Independents do not hate Palin. It's the hypocricy of the right, the selective amnesia about their leadership's role in the current state of the US economy and the loss of so many American lives as a result of the "act first, think later" decision to start the war in Iraq. It is also the blatant attempts to distract the American public from the real issues that affect everyday people. Why spend precious air time at the Republican convention defining, comparing, and degrading public service work when that could have been an opportunity to tell Americans how the economy would be fixed or how we will stop spilling American blood on foreign soil. No, it is the distraction of a Sarah Palin that frustrates Democrats and Independents. Although she seems tenacious, Sarah is an attack dog with lipstick and little substance, and a long trail of questionable (personal and professional) leadership decisions. She provides theater for the masses that would prefer to treat our societal challenges like a sports event their team should win at all cost instead of an opportunity to unite a great country while implementing real change so that EVERYONE can equally access the American Dream. As an Independent that voted for McCain in the past (against Bush) and will probably vote for Obama this November, please do not be distracted or sucked into the team mentality that promotes divisiveness and gridlock. Most everyone in this country is hurting from the decisions of the last 8 years and those who made them need to answer for it. Do not let them off the hook! Demanding Accountability is the REAL CHANGE that is needed in this country.

Democrats are scared---very scared. If the press keeps it up on Palin, whether for our against, then the story is Palin and Obama will drop off the radar screen. You can see the look in his face now, campaigning around the country---tired, depressed, angry, bitter. No longer the celebrity of the week, the flavor of the month---he has become what America has seen all too often: a cynical, corrupt, old-style Washington-Insider, political hack. No wonder he picked Old Greaseball "Hair Plug" Biden as his running mate. It couldn't be more obvious to all of us, could it?
