Is there anywhere I can go to be safe from the Palins?
Can't go to the bookstore.
The stores are all plastered with promotional posters for Sarah Palin's latest memoir; her memoir from last year is no doubt lurking on the remainder table.
Can't watch television. There's a chance I might flip past their reality show, "Sarah Palin's Alaska," on TLC. Though at least I can be grateful for small favors - like the fact that I won't have to watch the foulmouthed and fouler-footed Bristol Palin on "Dancing With the Stars" anymore.

Famous equals shameless. This has been the rule for most celebrities since the turn of the century, but American politicians were slow to embrace it. As late as 2008, politicians still seemed to be concerned about being associated with vulgarity or shallowness - remember Hillary Rodham Clinton's refusal to appear in Vogue magazine during the primaries? It sounds quaint now, doesn't it?

This open secret is what irritates even Republicans about the Palins' endless media circuit. They don't begrudge the Palins the right to enrich themselves. But by constantly hogging the national stage, they're making it difficult for a real 2012 contender to emerge. And without a real contender, how will other Republicans get even richer than the Palins?

Bingo.

Mars! I hear one-way tickets may soon be available.
Wow. The paranoia exhibited by the left is unreal. Their thumbsucking, sweating and irrational behavior is quite satisfying!
lol
Gov. Palin IS A REAL CONTENDER.
“But by constantly hogging the national stage, they’re making it difficult for a real 2012 contender to emerge”
well the Palin fans don’t have a problem with that but there are actually some people who want to beat Obama in 2012.
Nowhere.
All life forms will be assimilated.
Try Uranus - head first!
These articles are so unintentionally funny.
That cartoon looks like a little girl wearing her mother’s shoes.
SF would probably want Mitt as the Pubbie’s ‘contender’. Just sayin’
Good luck, I'm sure this thread will have all the normal whiners on it.
As to good sound discourse about the article, you'd be better off at KOS.
Thanks for the laugh, earJam. Are you missing your mommy or do you have some mommy issues? Might want to see a Dr. or Therapist about your problem with Big Mom, SP.
Okay, seriously. Who are these real contenders that the Palin media offensive is supposedly not allowing to emerge? I think the gov is in fact a real contender, and I can think of several others I’ve heard of whom I think would do quite well if they chose to run. If she means any of the guys who ran in 2008 no offense, but they couldn’t even beat John McCain.
Oh, but she has!
“ARMAGEDDON!!!” It’s not just for gerbilers anymore.
The whining is sooo unseemly.
“Is there anywhere I can go to be safe from the Palins? “
A gay bathhouse.
Nancy Pelosi’s office or house.
Any alleyway in SF.
