such as?
Obama 49, Palin 44
http://www.miamiherald.com/2011/09/20/2417008/poll-finds-obama-losing-ground.html
Better than Perry.
Well that’s really interesting.
All the trashings aren’t exactly going as planned.
Very interesting. I think I need more popcorn.
Yes, saw that:
OBAMA: 49% PALIN: 44% http://poltcs.us/oednVU
Palin has cut Obama’s lead in June over her by 80%....That’s not a misprint either.
Marist/McClatchy: Palin is now within 5 of Obama and holds him under 50%
According to Marist, Palin has trailed Obama by over 20 points but now is within 49-44. She beats Obama among indies.
Palin does better against Obama than Perry. Perry trails Obama by 9. Palin trails Obama by 5
Palin is stronger than both Bachmann and Perry. Bachmann still trails Obama by 13, Perry trails Obama by 9.
Obama led Palin by 26 in June. He’s now up by 5 over Palin. http://www.miamiherald.com/2011/09/20/2417008/poll-finds-obama-losing-ground.html
that was unexpected...
Someone on Twitter just said to Tammy Bruce if you rework the numbers given the percent polled, (Dem, Rep, Ind) Palin is ahead by a few.
Meaning she felt SHE was in the minority.
‘How the Drive-By Media Became the Hit-and-Run Media: Author Joe McGinniss’s Further Misadventures in Wasilla’

“Joe McGinniss, author of a controversial new biography of former Alaska governor Sarah Palin, was charged in connection with a hit-and-run accident in Wasilla, Alaska in July 2010, police and court records show.
McGinniss had moved to Wasilla in the spring of 2010 to work on his book, and rented the house next door to the Palin family, prompting Palin and her husband to erect a higher fence to protect their children’s privacy.
On July 12, 2010, at about 2 p.m., McGinniss was allegedly driving an overdue rental car when he collided with an unoccupied vehicle parked near Kaladi Brothers, a popular local coffee shop, causing minor but “disabling” damage, according to the collision report.” (more)
I know the wife of a Kansas farmer who years ago when they were high school sweethearts, got a full ride athletic scholarship in track to Kansas State. After three weeks there, she packed up her stuff and moved home and married her sweetheart.........It was a culture thing for her too.
If there was any dirt on Sarah Palin the MSM would have found it in 2008 when they descended en masse on Wasilla, AK.
How does it feel to have your candidate trashed and bashed with half truths and made up shi’te?
Think about that the next Perry thread you see and have an urge to sideswipe.
For me, I say these racist stories are just the liberal’s way of getting attention. Not knowing how Palin was when she first went to college, but she just doesn’t seem the type.
I too used to be a Palinwisher, but unless she makes her move PDQ, she has missed this boat. Even after the deadline, her and Perry could still team up for the absolutely UNBEATABLEs.
This is just so much clap trap and not worth the time it takes to read it.
I came out to UH Hilo 69/70 schoolyear, and then transferred to UH Manoa in Honolulu. As a Chicago boy, I can tell you it was culture shock, especially in Hilo, where the Japanese & Hawaiian populations were majority back then. And Hilo does get 125 inches of rain annually, highest total at sea level on earth. (It gets a ton of sun, too, just for the record and has been a wonderful place to live.)
That's the flippin' truth! I've got a close buddy, a white guy, who's in the Army and just got posted to Honolulu. He was bluntly warned by his chain of command to stay away from certain areas in the city populated by Natives and told that he would be a target by virtue of being Caucasian if he ever disregarded that advice.
