Sarah Palin Resigns as Alaska's Governor

http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#2cDSHn...yId=106259459/

Cool. Making a run at the White House in 2012 no doubt. She is hardly qualified.

and Obama is???? I would speculate too, that this is her opening bid for the Whitehouse. Just like Carter set the stage for Regan, could Obama be doing the same for Palin?

OK, let the namecalling begin, here's a start; slutty, trashy, trailer parky, bimbo, stupid, etc.......

Lets not forget...woman, wife, mother, grandmother and former Governor.

Funny... men in politics don't seem to get character assassination. Oh...they get scrutinized for their mental ability or policies...but women get the sexual adjectives tacked onto their names. She is a beautiful intelligent woman. Do you suppose some men feel threatened by her ability? Just wondering...any thoughts?

Helluva good rifle shooter, too, from what I hear...She sounds like the kind of person that I'd like to just "hang" with...I bet she & her husband would be a lot of fun...Just real, down to earth people. Barak & Michelle ? They don't impress me as being very friendly-I doubt if we would have much of anything to talk about. But then, I kinda doubt I would have got along w/McCain & his wife, either. I think I would have got along better w/Laura Bush than I would have w/George, too. Never much cared for that smartass, smirky, "I-Know-Something-YOU-Don't" grin he always had...Clinton would have been fun, if you coulda got him to unwind & let his guard down, get him talkin' about sports & chasing Tang De Poon...(grin)

She was definitely put under a stronger microscope then your usual candidate. Was it because shes a woman ? I would probably agree with you there. Not an equal world we live in yet..

That's probably part of it, but I find the left in general is threatened by her. Why else would they "still" be launching attacks on her. Can you imagine if she had a list of associates like Obama. The press (or whatever it has become), would have an absolute field day, of course it's no big deal if he has those associations.

I can only speak for myself: I pray each night that she is nominated by the GOP in 2012 and again in 2016.

I have never seen either displayed.

Can you point out something intelligent about her?
