I am not going to hang the bailout on palin. She was on the ticket, running against the forces of darkness, and had to tow the line or step off the ticket. The bailout will one day prove to have been a boondoggle when these major banks are broken up and assets taken into receivership.

I can’t speak to the Title IX feminism rant, or what specifically she was proposing regarding special needs kids. I don’t recall a specific proposal on that in the campaign, only that there was a need to do more and that she stood with the parents of special needs children. Who knows what form a proposal targeting that would be?

I think your bailout-Palin reply comment above was meant for pa, you put my name first. I wasnt planning on getting into that subject today. I have in the past (not recently), but some of these 2008 position arguments have been repeated to death on both sides.

I will just add that I noticed that Republicans thought TARP was great when a Republican president would spend the money, but all turned against it (after passing it) when Obama got it.
