With all the Obama talk of recent days, it's been all too easy to forget about the other star of the 2008 elections, Alaska Governor Sarah Palin. And while that's exactly what most of us would like to do, she lingers in our pop-consciousness with a tenaciousness wholly unbecoming of a one-hit wonder.
For instance, CNN's Political Ticker recently reported a story about former domestic terrorist and McCain bogeyman Bill Ayers. According to Ayers, he pitched an idea for a TV show to Palin after the election. “I suggested that we have a talk show together called ‘Pallin' Around with Sarah and Bill,'” he said, “I haven't heard back.”
Elsewhere, March's Esquire magazine features Palin in its recurring “What I've Learned” feature, reliably the most compelling single page in the magazine from month to month. A series of verbatim quotes taken from a larger interview, “What I've Learned,” paints an unusually candid portrait of the people it profiles. Palin is no exception.
There are several memorable quotes to be found there, including one about her favorite recipe for chili, “The secret to chili is you gotta have good mooseburger in there.” It goes on in much the same vein, with Palin commenting on hunting, daily exercise, and the fact that you really can see Russia from Alaska. Amazingly, she still seems to miss the point there.

What the author fears, I welcome.
They all fear the wrath of Sarah. Their prophet is nothing more then an empty suit who wants to give big hugs to Iran and make us into a Socialist country. And Sarah was right from the beginning, Obama DOES Pal around with Terrorists, not only pals around with them, but toasts them, campaigns with them, has his book written by them, and removes sanctions against them so that they can continue to build nuclear weapons and terrorize America.
Punk.
(your PBS tax dollars hard at work)
The time has long past for my tax dollars to stop funding the Corporation for Public (Leftist) Broadcasting.
The dolt's probably in favor of returning to the Fairness Doctrine, too.
Elitists fear real people. She will be back looking to gut a Moose.
Pray for America, Our Troops and Gov Palin
The majority of the comments to this screed are pro-Palin, something that we’re seeing more and more often. Some of it is organized, and some of it isn’t. 0bot activity seems to be declining nationwide, and is now concentrated on Alaskan news outlets, CNN, and their preaching to the choir sites, HuffPo, DU and Daily Kos.
Most of these type screeds come from completely clueless people who actually have no idea why Palin has resonated with so many people. That’s good, let them remain clueless, it will come as much more of a surprise when she takes 0bama down in 2012 or some other democrat in 2016.
An overwhelming majority, I would guess around 95%. It is also worth noting that the comments are well thought-out and written on par with what we see here on FR.
Oh, really? Because articles like this three months after the election and five months after she got the nomination say otherwise.
Quite a difference when compared to the name-calling, vile posts made by most 0bots.
