    Appears Sarah still can't accept the truth, even when those who selected her admit it was a mistake she still defines it in her own reality

    She would have been a perfect fit in the Trump cabinet, as she said, so close to Russia they could have hooked up a can and string telephone and made her Secretary of State
    I am sure she wouldn't have complained if her pussy was fondled.

    If Sarah Palin had just stayed in the background and echoed the campaign line she would've been a great pick. Problem was that he didn't do enough vetting, he saw this up and coming popular female governor in a state who was taking on that states establishment and decided to take a risk. It backfired, turns out she was a nutjob, and she gobbled up all the news attention with her nuttery (I swear there was more news about her than McCain). Just goes to show why you should always just pick the most boring vp possible. They do not benefit your campaign very much even if they're a great pick, and they can hurt it a great deal.

    "Perpetual gut punch"?

    The former half-term governor of Alaska has an awkward way with words.

    She obviously has known for years that McCain made the mistake of selecting her. The only "gut punch" is that it is openly out in the public domain now.

    Man, there must be some great posts from the past on this board with righwingers singing the praises of the barely articulate Palin -- & worshipping the ground she walked on.

    As for me, I look forward to spending the next decade painting Republicans as the party of George Dumbya Bush, Sarah Palin, and Donald J. Trump!

    As dumb as Trump is it was funny seeing the two them on stage before the election with her rattling on like some badly brain damaged alcoholic. It is hard to tell what Trump thought, is she as wacko as me or even wackier. Sarah appears not to be part of the new, even more corrupt, republican elite swamp, kinda sad, she and Rudy would make a great Abbot and Costello team. Who's on first? What's first? ....

    It doesn't matter if they did or didn't do anything. Kids are off limits. At least that's what liberals claim. Then THEY go after someone's kids. It's called hypocrisy.

    They did. Then the Alaskan squidbilly opened her mouth. The fact that the Repubs picked a woman gopt some women to reconsider the Repubs. Sarah is a gift of Steve Schmidt. He has rtegretted that selection ever since.
