Another reason why McCain lost is that the turkey’s he hired should be pushing a broom somewhere.

Sabotaging the VP candidate is stupid.

Let’s not forget the media’s view of Reagan versus the reality and how he connected with the people. I’m not saying Sarah is a Reagan, but right now she’s my choice for 2012!

I’m not saying Sarah is a Reagan, but right now she’s my choice for 2012

In Woof’s defense, he did also say:

Mine too! (He too was for Sarah in 2012).

Another reason why McCain lost is that the turkey’s he hired should be pushing a broom somewhere.

I fear, even that would be above their “pay grade”.

Left on her own, I doubt she could find the national stage.

A lot of Mitt Romney’s campaign workers moved to McCain’s campaign and they see Palin as a threat to Romney’s plans and are doing whatever they can to destroy her. They purposely started the “Rogue Rumors” and leaked them.

McCains campaign was a comedy of errors. I guess he really was the Manchurian Candidate.

She’s an ignorant, greedy, ham handed sow, who parrots irrelevant talking points when asked a question beyond her limited knowledge.

Let’s “fisk” Woof’s comment here.

Ignorant; compared to Joe Biden, who seems to make everything up? Compared to Barack Obama, who has evidently failed to realize that Chicago politics is corrupt? FAIL for Woof.

Greedy; she cut her pay as mayor and greatly decreased her perks as governor. In contrast, Obama collaborated with a criminal to buy a house he couldn’t afford, and Biden has lived hand to mouth despite six figure income for the past 35 years. FAIL again.

Ham handed sow; when the first thing most men notice about Mrs. Palin is her attractiveness, we can safely give another FAIL to Woof here.

“Parrots irrelevant talking points”; another FAIL for Woof. Oil production is anything but irrelevant to Alaskans, never mind anyone who owns a car.

So let’s give a hearty “FAIL” to a great FAILure, Woof, as well as to the GOSSIPS who aren’t man enough to put their names behind their allegations in the McCain campaign.

One thing that is clear, McCain’s strategy of running from the center, ie Democrat lite, was a spectacular failure.

History suggests that it wasn’t a strategy, but rather that McCain is Democrat lite. Conservatives have been saying that for over a decade now.

Some on the left are going around claiming that a resounding Obama win signifies the failure of conservatism.

Obama didn’t beat a conservative. He beat a poor excuse of squishy middle candidate; a damaged brand candidate in a damaged brand party. A guy the Democrats claimed was “McBush”, a clone of Bush, the most reviled man in the whole wide world.

For all of the claims of “unity” and everybody loving Obama along with all of the stupendous disasters associated with McCain, it should have been a much more resounding defeat.

BB,

Your smack-down of WOOF is informative. His comment was glib, snide, provocative, and emotive. Yours was thoughtful, reasoned, comprehensive, and articulate. Could there be a more telling distinction between the thought process of a conservative and what passes for thought on the Left?

I’ve heard the soundclip. I was joking about her not being there and drawing the comparison to Obama not being effected by rev. Wright. Just because you let someone pray over you doesn’t mean you are obsessed with or know about witchcraft. If Obama spent 20 years with a psycho and he gets a pass, palin who spent 4 mins with soemone you think is psycho shouldn’t merit your attention. Unless you are slime and doing what comes natural.

Sarah and scientific R&D, I haven’t paid attention to. If she was against government funding R&D I would agree if the goal is not clear cut and necessary and is more of a shot gun blast at improvement. If she said that R&D is totally unimportant or bad, she is an idiot.

Like you, arbuckle, the avatar is phony, false, childish, insulting and contrived.

Sorry there Kenny boy, but your last sentence combined with your avatar makes me smile.

More than anything else, this story smells like a disgruntled campaign staffer trying to shift the blame for McCain’s loss to a VP choice the staffer had vehemently opposed in the first place. Particularly as those on the McCain campaign staff really don’t have much pertinence at the moment anyhow.

Remember too, that the subject of Palin came up when Carl Cameron was asking about the story that the McCain camp had limited her public appearances and media exposure. This story has CYA written all over it.

John McCain’s indistinct ideology aside, this was a really poorly run campaign from the very moment it became clear that McCain had the nomination in hand.

When an anon source wages attacks against someone like this our reaction should be, look at the source.

The source was the McCain campaign. Many conservatives are going to savage her because they blame her for the loss.

As a ex-journalism major, this is very discouraging. I know journalism in the MSM is dead, but it appears on life-support at platinum blonde Fox News as well.

God save us from any more “journalists.” We need some good old-fashioned reporters, men and women who will dig in and just tell us the facts, instead of trying to foist some bloody-minded notions of meaning on the public.

After seeing Carl Carmeron’s hit piece on Bill O- how can that be labeled journalism? The source or sources are UN-NAMED…Where is the balance by getting a response from the Palin side?

So you can report unsourced, undocumented rumor and no rebuttal.

As a ex-journalism major, this is very discouraging. I know journalism in the MSM is dead, but it appears on life-support at platinum blonde Fox News as well.

Palin brought the McCain Campaign back to life many times when he was DOA. The Libs are already trying to gemean her because she is a powerful candidate! Her knowledge of what the USA needs to get it’s People back to work and prosper again is what people liked about her. Obama was coddled and cooed by the MSM and all the Libs throughout this campaign. Important facts and information are still been Ignored, Hidden and Covered up about our New President Elect. When are we going to hear about Obama? Sarah Palin is only a distraction for the left to hide their Hero, Messiahs Ugly Socialist, Racist Truth and Past! When an anon source wages attacks against someone like this our reaction should be, look at the source.

Sarah Palin came to the campaign when she was asked. She did not campaign for the job. She only had her family and maybe a couple of aides but no one else to “look out for her”. Now she is being tossed to the wolves to deflect attention from the real problem: John McCain.

That is like asking the neighbor (conservatives) that you (John McCain) have been mostly ignoring to come to your house to help put out a fire. The neighbor comes and nearly saves your house (46% of popular vote) and then you blame the neighbor for your house burning down. This is ingratitude at its worst!

Republicans would have done much better this year if they had offered a “choice instead of an echo” of the Democratic party. The best they could do was to draw in Palin at the end. This race was lost when “teh Fred” hemmed and hawed too long before getting in. The rest of the field was Democrat “lite” (not unlike GWB) and conservatives largely failed to engage.

She’s an ignorant, greedy, ham handed sow,
who parrots irrelevant talking points when
asked a question beyond her limited knowledge.

The same can be said of Obama, the “trophy wife” of the DNC

Obama called the Prime Minister of Canada the
“President of Canada”

We don’t have presidents here we have prime ministers.

How ignorant of Obama considering 80% of everything produced in Canada is bought by the USA.

Why is the left and their main stream media not making fun of dear leader Hussein Obama?

Never mind I know the answer…

arbuckle.. it was your avatar I was describing. How interesting that you would take it personally. Which, by the way, it was meant to be.

You go through as many strange avatars as your insecurity requires.

No, from her denigrating Scientific R&D.
Plenty of scientist believe in a God, less in witches.

She denigrated sending money to scientists in FRANCE, you imbecile. Why should we pay for other countries to experiment? What a douche.

< -- like my avatar?

It fits. You’re stupid, insulting and childish, and the avatar shows the lack of any intelligent thoughts in that mass of dead tissue that you call your brain.

She’s a real conservative, and he’s a leftie; not so much similarity.

Not really. While Sarah seems to believe in conservative ideals, she doesn’t put them into practice. While she herself is prolife, she fought her party on making more restrictions on abortion. While she may have voted against gay marriage, she signed legislation into effect that gave them all kinds of benefits, and made them married in effect. She may be socially conservative in her private life. In her public role, not so much.

Well, at least she’s a fiscal conservative….well, not really. At least some of the problems with her fiscal policy we have covered, but here are a few more:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qm6SeDXqd-g&eurl=

We all hype her extremely modest pay cut, but her pay cut was over shadowed by the fact that she had to hire a consultant to help her out. Not that I fault her for needing help to figure out the job…but it completely negates her pay cut. Her pay cut is the equivalent of McCain’s fight against earmarks…while approving OTHER wasteful spending.

It’s not that either of them aren’t conservatives. McCain the person is a good conservative. McCain the politician isn’t. Palin the person is an awesome conservative. Palin the politician isn’t. This doesn’t mean either is terrible, but they’re an extremely mixed bag. McCain is right on Iraq and Georgia, wrong on Bosnia. He’s right on extending current tax cuts, but was wrong on making them in the first place. Right on welfare….wrong on housing subsidies. Etc.

Respect the vets, asshole.

You can still respect someone and criticize them.

Thanks for the link Bat one!

Sorry there Kenny boy, but your last sentence combined with your avatar makes me smile.

It would bob. You like people like Che. They get rid of all those colored people who actually could tell you how bad socialism sucks…so you can get back to feeling good about yourself.

RBB,

I just named some examples off the top of my head, I didn’t plan on giving a complete history of past elections. My point was, that it is silly. You don’t know what was said. This is just gossip. Anonymous source from within the campaign? How old are you? Some of us have heard that tune before, many times. She might have said something stupid, so what? We have Obama on tape talking about 57 states, a tornado that killed 10,000, instead of 12, Iran is a little country, and Joe! Just 2 days ago he was rambling about some crap about boy-girls and girl-girls. They all say dumb crap, but you can’t say Palin did anything , for sure, there’s no proof. I think it was stupid Fox acted like it was a real story. I was merely trying to point out that rats fleeing a sinking ship will try to take down others with them.

Who needs books anyway?

Heinous, pentecostal bitch. Close-minded beeyatch. I urge her to run on her own ticket so that everyone can lay bare the fact that she will never run this country. It’s an affront to the country that anyone would suggest she lead us. I want her to run again so that she can stop entertaining these false delusions of grandeur.

Mine too.

Ignorant of science, government and things international. Knowledgeable of witches.

Ham handed in that she will face ethics violations trying to fire a cop and billing the state per diem to stay in her own home.
Greedy, above and clothing the family on donor dimes.

Secessionist crapola.None dare call it treason
.
I welcome her as a nativist, real American standard bearer of what will continue to be a failed national party.

Osawaldo’s got it right on this one.

Sarah wasn’t the problem. McCain was. Huge swaths of the conservative base didn’t want him as the candidate to begin with.

Now she is being tossed to the wolves to deflect attention from the real problem: John McCain.

Oh, McCain is the one who didn’t know that Africa was a continent and not a country? McCain was the patriotic war hero, remember? Respect the vets, asshole.
