I have seen the the words a million times. but what does Palin baggage mean ? She has no Gary Hart type scandal. Shes not even as far right as Barry Goldwater was on all the issues.

the issues and leadership is what should matter.. but thats not the case right now

I think the “baggage” is the Levi Johnston stuff.

It’s been explained to you countless times. I know that I’ve explained it no less than a dozen times over the last few years. You just chose not listen. Time to look inward and admit that you were wrong.

My issue has always been her flightiness, and I’ve said so. 5 schools and 6 years to get a degree, is NOT a good sign. Start this, quit this, start that, quit that... While her fans rationalized it all, it doesn’t change the fact that she has a poor history of finishing the things she starts.

Now if there is anyone right now who has a right to be upset it’s Steve Bannon. Announcing that she wasn’t running the same day that his movie was released on DVD really bent him over the hobby horse and gave it to him hard. Sorry, but there is no nice way to say this: Bannon got royally screwed on 10-5.

Not that many of you don’t have a right to be pissed off yourselves. She intentionally allowed you to believe she was running for far too long. Her supporters were confidently telling everyone that she was running and that she was going to win. Well, they just look like fools now, and that’s contributing more than a little to the kicked in the gut feeling that so many of her fans are enduring.

You keep saying she was our best...blah..blah..blah. She wasn’t. You THOUGHT she was our best, and that’s not the same thing. Use this as a learning tool, and avoid hero worship in the future. You’ll be happier for it.
