This is the exchange that caused you to "wake up"?
"One fairgoer confronted Todd Palin over his wife’s decision to quit the Alaska governorship, resulting in a viral video exchange that was captured by the San Francisco Chronicle‘s Dollar Store Microphone Department. The paper also caught the extended remix of Jake Tapper‘s heifer-delayed Q&A with Palin.
The first clip picks up just as Todd Palin tells the woman to watch The Undefeated, the recently-released Palin documentary, to find out why she quit. Todd asks her, “What would you recommend doing when you’ve got $600,000-700,000 hangin’ over your head, and you still have all these people signing ethics complaints against you? What would you do?”
The woman’s well-played response? “Well, you go for the money, obviously. That’s what she did.”
Todd gamely hangs in there, but the confrontation ends with the woman walking away, yelling “Sell-out!”

So, you actually buy into that woman's decrepit logic? Do you not understand that the Palin family was being personally bankrupted by all those frivolous lawsuits, and that Alaska law did not allow the Governor to utilize state funds or attorneys for her defense?
Is it not clear to you, that she and her staff were spending so much time working on answering these complaints, that she was virtually unable to perform her legal duties as Governor?
Perhaps you're also unaware that NONE of the rich and powerful in the Republican party stepped forward to help her, and that NONE of them spoke a single word to the press in her defense.
Forgive me, but I think you've got an extremely callous opinion regarding this.
Hey, I’m all for replacing someone when we can improve ourselves, but I am not for defeating a Republican with a Democrat—there is a huge difference. No more Dems—they are the enemy!!
Some people get it, and some don't.
Sure he could, if he weren't dead, unless he ran as a Democrat, then he probably could still win.
I stand corrected....grateful for the correct information ....
Stay safe.
I am a girl. Well, a middle aged woman.
I wasn’t aware of the homo link when I chose the screen name. I know very little of that world and like to keep it that way other than how it’s affecting our society. A poster on FR provided me with the definition over four years ago.
It hasn’t and won’t make me change my screenname (thanks Eaker) which was prompted by the nickname given to me by my brothers.
A very sweet one as well!
