It wasn't because she was bored it was because people were saying bad things about her family (husband and kids). Something about her husband not being the father of her children - nasty stuff.

And then she got bored and quit in mid-term.

Oh good grief. This is the Land of the Grownups. What if the Russians mocked the Aleutians--is she going to cry?

I don't think she should run now but she is definitely salvageable politically.

Did you guys read the article? She actually was a good governor who brought in much reform and revenues for the state of Alaska that others were unable or too corrupt to do.

News flash for you, Brian. They don't care. They hates her. The last thing in the world they want to hear about is the time when she, as a young rising star first encountered the corruption that infects our halls of power. They aren't prepared to accept that when that happened to her, people went to jail and she kicked a sitting governor of her own party out of office. Do you know why they don't want to think about instincts like that? Because when now President Obama met that corruption as a young rising star, he got a very nice home improvement out of it.

The Alaska Daily News. Nice archives. As for the Rezco Lawn, you can search easily enough.

Hate is too strong of a word. I thought she was comic fodder... She and her brood were proudly folksy, which works for republicans sometimes, but not all of the time. I never thought much for her as someone who would thrust her pregnant teenage daughter into the spotlight of a national campaign for her own ambitions. I wouldn't do that to my daughter, and I have never respected Palin ever since

Tazzy, I just can't find an appropriate way to express what your posting of that means...

She's not a professional politician so she didn't have the experience to deal with everything that happened to her. Therefore, I find her resigning more understandable since she was a mother protecting her family/kids from nasty people.

What the hell are you talking about?

If you are a politician you are a politician. I have no idea what a "professional" politician is.

And if you aspire to be a politician then you have to learn to take the heat.

She couldn't and she folded.

And this is someone that some people seriously want in the White House?

Something that always seems to get gets forgotten when the Repukes start making excuses for Palin quitting her job because the media was picking on her family, of course.

She proved herself totally incompetent and cost McCain the Presidency.

To be fair to Barbie, Sorebutt wasn't entirely blameless in that one himself...

That's true.

I always found it funny that Republicans called Kerry a flip-flopper while McCain changed his positions so many times it was making my head spin.

Very true. Presumably it doesn't count as flip flopping if it's a Republican doing it.

I do not think it is good to pick on young people, and I didn't like it when the media picked on her spawn. Of course, when Bristol Palin went to work as a public spokesperson for a political cause she did throw herself into the fray, so to speak.

I remember seeing pregnant Bristol and thinking "It is hard enough to be a teenage, unwed, pregnant mother without being marched around on your mother's stage this way". Like I said, it was not a very motherly thing to do, and I would not have put my own daughter through it.

Neither would I. Then again, when I saw a blip on the news about a woman giving her 8 yo daughter Botox injections.......I immediately thought "CHILD ABUSE!"

That is child abuse, and whatever doctor did it is guilty of malpractice.

In that case, it's deemed growth and maturation.

Why do you lefties get sooooo upset everytime ***her name*** comes up? I think it's commical!

Speaking of comical....

Do you remember that episode of the sitcom Cheers, when Frasier Crane works so hard to get Woody Boyd on the ballot for City Council, ultimately working up to becoming President? Frasier has dreams of Woody starting WW III with the 'red phone'? And then Frasier wakes up screaming?

Well, that's most liberals AND PRAGMATIC RIGHTIES, still having that nightmare and waking up screaming - over and over again.....

I can't speak for others, popeye, but I don't get upset at all.

I roll my eyes and wonder why the right would cling to such a dead end.
