Long-lost Sarah Palin surfaces in emails Once, there was a different Sarah Palin.

Politico ^ | June 11, 2011 | MOLLY BALL

She was hands-on and averse to partisan politics. She championed openness in government and had normal relations with the media. She was a little starstruck by her interactions with national politicians but unafraid to do battle with the chief executives of the world’s largest oil companies

The emails from her governorship, released Friday, brought back the memory of a long-lost Palin: the popular, charismatic, competent woman of the people.

Far from being a knee-jerk partisan, she praises then-Sen. Barack Obama for his energy ideas — “pretty cool,” even though he is the “wrong candidate.” She derides the Republican establishment just weeks before being picked for the ticket, writing, “we need to remember the GOP, for the most part … especially the AK machine … has not had any support or assistance provided our administration so our time and efforts will continue to be spent on serving Alaskans, not party politics.”

This is their only meme on the emails they have left. WEEEEEAAAAAAK!!!! Lol.

[GoCards]

LOL. Starting hearing this this morning on CNN. Wow, wonder what happened to the old sarah, now she is an ole bitter bat......... Whatever media’

[nhwingut]

Wow are they desperate.

[Hojczyk]

Well I guess the talking points are out...she was good but now she is what we say she is...

This was the vice presidential candidate John McCain’s team thought they were getting, before her darker tendencies — defensiveness, thin skin, grudge-keeping — hardened into tics.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Does anyone even read PUKElitico anymore..its nothing more then a rag for liberals to droll over their precious Obama

[toddausauras]

PS, just think of how weak this is: Thursday: Palin’s emails are going to finally destroy her, phew, we finally have her, she’ll be finished! Friday: Hang on we and our idiot live-in-thier-mother’s basement-supporters are sifting, this is going to be good....um, whoops there’s nothing here!!!! Saturday: Sniff, she’s not who she used to be.

Wow.

That is not surprising given the order she signed as Governor in 2007 creating a climate change panel.

Great hit piece. “She was better back then than she is now,” is the synthesized message from the Journolist inspired, communist hacks at Politico. I prefer mouse and rat manure to these people.

[tet68]

I do believe they don’t know if they are coming or
going. What ever they say puts her in a better light,
they would be smart to just shut up, but they can’t.

CUE GIANT EYE ROLL!

This writer is a joke....LOL!

[LostInBayport]

She championed openness in government and had normal relations with the media.

Translation: Waaaa! Waaaah! She won't give us interviews and appear on our lame-ass dinosaur media shows so we can hit her with the list of 'gotcha' questions we've had made up for a year now. And...she makes us chase her bus around like paparazzi! She doesn't even send us press releases about where she's going and provide us with free foooood! Waaaahhh!

[Aria]

MSM is basically saying: Gee, we set out to destroy her with every rotten low down unethical and immoral trash we could throw at her and her family and and now she’s different...we’re so disappointed and of course we’ll have to make sure no one makes the mistake of voting for the damaged Sarah.

Gee MSM, I’m so touched that you care about her.....NOT.

[Carling]

Here comes the spin on the emails that make Sarah look presidential.

The MSM created an image of her, and how they are trying to say that it was Sarah who changed.

You just KNOW they thought they would find things that would make Sarah look like an idiot. Since that didn't happen, and since it made her look like a leader, they must say that she has changed. It's disgusting, and makes me pull toward Palin. I'll be honest. I wasn't sure about her, but what I've seen in these emails validates her as a viable candidate. Nice job, MSM!

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

Molly, you slut. THanks for the smear-piece on Sara Palin. You have just given us the latest evidence of why honest, objective journalism is in the crapper.

Well, at least we can add your name to the toilet paper we use to wipe our asses. You join Walter Cronkite, Dan Rather, Katie Couric, anyone from MSBNC, a lot of CNN, the Wash. Post, and NY Times.

Not only can you kiss my ass, now you can wipe it.

I think I’ll go out and burn my old press cards to protest your existence. Once we had honor. Now you have none.

[Billthedrill]

What part of this insane media frenzy could possibly be described as “normal relations with the media”? And whose fault is that, Palin’s?

[toddausauras]

That is not surprising given the order she signed as Governor in 2007 creating a climate change panel...................................................................................................................
It will help her in the general. One problem she won’t have is she runs is being seen as conservative enough. I mean, pissant won’t vote for her but he still wants Hunter.

[Invincibly Ignorant]

This is the best they can do from the emails? Lol. Belly laugh even. Used to be non-partisan? lol. Partisongate.
