When America is finally ready to reckon with the phenomenon that was Sarah Palin, I suspect we will discover that whatever she represents actually had less to do with her gender, class, or ideology than we now believe. It's easy to look at the soon-to-be-former governor of Alaska as an iconic feminist, a path-breaking working mother, or noble rabble-rousing populist. But when the dust settles, the lesson may be that she was simply a woman who made no sense. Her meteoric rise and dubious fall will say less about America than you think, beyond the fact that America likes its politicians to communicate their ideas clearly. We will someday come to realize that while it's all well and good to be mavericky with one's policies, it's never smart to be mavericky with one's message.

HAHAHAHAHA!!!! HAHAHA!! Oh God it hurts to laugh this hard! Listen, if you are capable, you babbling bunch of buffoons. She is NOT going away, better yet what she represents is NOT going away and is getting stronger and louder and for you much more dangerous.
LOL! Thanks for the laughs now go hold yourself in the fetal position while rocking and say “It’s got to be true, she’s got to go away”
“I thought it was time this idiot was taken to task for her liberal opinion.”
I found, and fixed a minor typo in the above sentence.
“I thought it was time this idiot was taken to task for her wishful thinking”.
MS Libtard is going to be ever so unhappy when Sarah Palin does not go away.
who was Palin bashing?
There is just no end to these freaks that hate her for being the best voice of conservatism and populism out there. Their fear drives their hate to an astounding irrationality.
PING!!
Am wondering where Dahlia gets her ‘Sarah quit US’. US?
> Who is Slate calling, us?
yeah, what’s this ‘we’ $hit?
These liberals aren’t worth the time of day or night
The obsession with Sarah continues.
How much ink are the other so-called likely 2010 candidates getting from the media?
From republicans?
From democrats?
Her detractors in both branches of the Big Government party fear her because they know she has the potential to be more of a game changer than even Obama.
Obama just wants to make the big government they love bigger a little faster than they expected. Sarah would cut them off at the knees, take away their crowns and tiaras and return the government to the people.
I love Sarah; but a ‘third Party’ a huge mistake. She can carve her path; right through the Repubs - and Demrats - for that matter. . .but she needs a Party ID; preferably, Repub - and not Democrat; and she can fashion her message from there.
Sorry, but I am not putting my support behind the useless whimps of the GOP just to keep their opponents out of office (which doesn’t work at all, look at their numbers, they are DONE). I am putting my vote behind someone I believe in and behind someone who believes in me. If that causes this country to fail, then SO BE IT. NOW IS THE TIME TO FIGHT! THE TIME FOR BEING SHEEPLE IS OVER!
Slate actually ran something yesterday questioning why Sarah Palin’s hair was thinning (stress or female pattern baldness were their theories- one idiot commenter said that the GOP bought her hair pieces during the campaign and now she didn’t have them. This was the “obvious theory.”). These liberal pro-deathers don’t understand that women loose extra hair the year after giving birth. I am amazed by how obsessed they are with her.
Amen and Amen!!
It stuck because it was so "Sarah".
I spent 21 yrs. in the service. The one thing I learned, is that you are part of a family. You simply do not call out or berate a fellow soldier in front of their peers, nor in public for that matter. It is incredibly counter-productive. Like Sarah Palin or not, she is a Conservative. A part of the Family. The GOP’s intellectual wing seems to think it’s ok too publicly flog one of their own. Speaks a lot to their charecter, and true intelligence. I’m tired of thinkers, and idea people. I want doers. I think Sarah is a doer.
Message to the WH: Sarah ain't runnin' off with her tail between her legs like some inner city, community organizer, race hustler.
"zero" is about to find out what real America is all about.
