Sarah Palin - Page 12

Clara, I believe she was found to be in the wrong with the firing.

Two interesting things, are now in play:

1. Anchorage's newspapers are saying that Palin is not ready to be the US President.

2. The McCain camp is saying that Palin is often adding words in her speeches and not following their advice

3. From what I gathered from a CNN report it seems Palin is showing her 'strong opinionated' side and it is causing bickering in the camp. Some analysis are saying this is because Palin is seeing a loss in the election and is covering her own hyde at the moment.

Thoughts?

I've read similar reports, also on CNN, but with the caveat in the article that it is common for VP candidates and the presidential candidates to get a little tense during the campaigns.

Maybe she is covering her own hide, but that's not unusual. If the McCain-Palin ticket loses, she has to go back to being the Governer of Alaska. And she may be looking forward to 2012?

It's all "politics as usual," in my opinion.

Sarah Palin to Dobson: I'm Solidly Pro-Life and McCain Opposes Abortion

Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- Alaska Governor Sarah Palin talked with pro-life leader Dr. James Dobson in a radio broadcast that aired on Wednesday and called herself a "hardcore pro-lifer." She also said Senator John McCain is very solidly against abortion. Palin also said the birth of her mentally disabled son Trig allowed her to put her heartfelt pro-life beliefs into practice. Palin said giving birth to a baby with Down syndrome was "this opportunity for me to really be walking the walk and not just talking the talk. There's purpose in this also and for a greater good to be met there." Palin said she wants America to become a "more welcoming nation for all of our children" and that the pro-life message was very much a part of who she is as a person. Dobson asked if Senator McCain really opposes abortion. "I do from the bottom of my heart," Palin responded. "I am such a strong believer that McCain believes in those strong planks. It is important for Americans to know John McCain is solidly there on those solid planks in our platform that build the right agenda for America."

It is interesting reading our local papers here in Alaska. Our Valley newspaper which covers the town she is from has had quite a time keeping up. It seems her rating as our Governor went down like 30% (not sure of the exact %) since she was chosen to run as VP. There are still a number of her fans here but I have noticed that those that oppose her have made sure their voice is being heard. They complained that it was totally one sided coverage (editorial letters) and this week I saw that was not the case.
With this whole trial and misuse of power I wonder how badly it will effect her if she has to come back.

I think this is another time in history where SNL (Saturday Night Live) has turned another intelligent person into a idiot before our eyes. Ford was not stupid, but everyone remembers Chevy Chase's portrail of him as a bumbling idiot and it stuck. I think the visual accuracy of Tina Fey's SNL portail of Palin has really had the idiot message imprint on her as well...even in Alaska.

Jane Mayer on "The Insiders: How John McCain Came to Pick Sarah Palin"

Republican vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin has cast herself as an antidote to the elitist culture inside the Beltway. But a new article from New Yorker reporter Jane Mayer says Palin's sudden rise to prominence owes more to members of the Washington elite than her rhetoric has suggested.

Here to Stay?

Love her or hate her, Sarah Palin has breathed new life into Republican politics, and if John McCain somehow manages to pull this election off, she will become the vice president. But what if Barack Obama wins? Will it be Sarah Palin for president in 2012? And is she the new face of the Grand Old Party? ABC News correspondent Kate Snow is on the campaign trail with a close look at the Palin phenomenon.

All I can say is I like her. She is outspoken and not afraid to tell you her views. Whether you like it or not she does not try to tell you what she thinks you want to hear. She is not like other politicians.
