Sarah K. Palin, Will You Please Go Now?

@mswas

Nah, she’s been snubbing fans at book signings. She’s acting like a straight celebrity.

Maybe a tour with Britney?

The demographics of the country are rapidly shifting. If the 2000 election were rerun today, GWB would lose decisively. It doesn’t matter how aggressively the Republicans mobilize their base, they don’t have the votes to win without pulling heavily from the center. And if they run a polarizing figure like Palin, they’ll never get enough votes from the center.

2004 called, it wants it’s argument back.

Not that I disagree with you. I’m just sayin’…

Liberals are scared of Palin for the same reasons that Br’er Rabbit was scared of the briar patch.

Of course he was scared, all those thorns and, well, briars. A rabbit could really get hurt in there!

Politics, clearly, is Palin’s tar baby. :eek:

CMC fnord!
It won’t help LeeshaJoy, he still ain’t gonna get it.

I know of an incident in which she was booed because she did not sign books that she said she would. But they were upset because they like her and she did not do what she promised. But those people are still in her camp as far as politics is concerned. She is definitely after the cash. Walking away from the governorship is mind boggling for a politician to do. How can her fans justify that?

Because she’s no longer a politician…she’s a LEADER! Which is why she stopped politicianing, dontcha know? Politics gets in the way of leading.

I don’t know. They admire her ‘guerilla politics’. Fucking savvy posturing they mean.

You’re saying that Clothahump has a shot at the big time, then?

At least there’s a good chance he would be saying what he chooses, and not what his Keepers tell him to say. AND, he probably wouldn’t get it so garbled that a William Shatner parody interpretation makes more sense. It’s sad when a person takes your words to ridicule you, and makes more sense than you did.

I’d like to hear your opinion. Do you think we’re all so terrified because she has a set of values and tries to live by them? Because she’s open and outspoken? What else could it possibly be?

These days, I have to question this “values thing”. I propose that most of it is just a way of pandering to the Flavor Of The Month, so to speak. I think it’s just the “usual suspects”, including her, parroting what they think the “commoners” want to hear.

Anyway, she quit being a governor, what makes people think she wouldn’t bail on the presidency too? Even if she got it and didn’t quit, I believe she would b horribly incompetent.

But what you don’t understand is that there’s no Commoners here in America, there’s just Americans. And Americans are patriots. And there’s nothing in the world a group of patriots can’t accomplish if they put their minds and hearts and souls into it. And that’s why America is the greatest planet on Earth. See, when Joe the Plumber and Sally the Schoolteacher want to make America even better they can do it! All they need to vote for me! I’m a patriot too. I’m so American, it’s like a baseball had a litter of patriots with an apple pie!

Damn. Forgot to work Saint Ronald in there. Ah well.

I’m afraid of Sarah Palin. She’s an shapeshifting demon from the planet GAW#%#TR. They eat babies.

Well, good. The planet’s overpopulated anyway.

You can’t give blow jobs with your mouth shut.

That’s the only kind I’d want from her----one she couldn’t perform.

[LouisB]

On her book tour here in Florida, she spent a lot of time hanging out in various retirement communities, where the residents stood in line all night and trumpeted her praises. Depending on your point of view, there are a bunch of aging patriots in Florida, or else there are a bunch of Alzheimer patients still running around loose.

And, of course, a few aging ex-hippies.

[Mr_Happy]

Sarah Palin is a dopey cunt with more tits than IQ points.
Any moron that asks “Why are you so scared of her?” can’t honestly be thinking “I know why, it’s because she’s gonne getcha!”.

You can all say “It worries me that so many Americans would vote for her” but I’m still worried that so many of you Americans are still talking about her.
Sure them voting for her is worse, but you guys talking about her gives them a reason to vote for her.
Prove she’s not worth your time, don’t waste time on her!

(Although in saying that, this Aussie would love to see her run just because I’d like some more stuff from Tina Fey!)

[Jackmannii]

I’ll give her $5 for gas.

In fact, if we all chip in we can get her back to Wasilla.

@Mr Happy

…I’m still worried that so many of you Americans are still talking about her.

We’re just trying to save you embarassment over recent Australian prime ministers, including those who attend strip clubs “by mistake”.

Even Wasilla doesn’t deserve her.

For just a little more we can send her to Russia. Hell, she can see it from her front porch – maybe she can make it the rest of the way by a moose ride. How different can that be from riding Todd?

Yikes, someone’s a little touchy.
I wasn’t trying to start anything, just noting that if the left stopped talking about her altogether, she’d eventually just go away.
