Was talking with my Dad last night and he had a good thought. NEITHER party wanted her to win. After they saw and learned what she had done in Alaska they were petrified about what she might mean in Washington. She would also have broken into the ranks of the political elite with an end run around the usual process. It would have been the first time in a long time that a “regular” person would have gotten into a position of that power. They didn’t like her not coming through them AND they were afraid she would tear the whole thing open.

I think she looked forward tothe opportunity.

I think your Dad is very wise. She, altho bringing votes and attention to a pitiful campaign, scared the entrenched power elites to death. What she did in Alaska was slap the GOP silly and take the reins from their trembling hands. What in the world would happen to them should she gain power in Washington.

I think your dad is right. I felt the same way...Washington insiders in both parties did not want Sarah to win. She would have brought too much change to their corrupt ways.

Sad. This country is in a strangle-hold by elites on both sides. They have the money and the power. Don’t know if it will ever change. They control the media too and will manipulate the masses.
