It astounded me then that so many here clung to the FR created image of palin while ignoring all her real-world choices and actions. It astounds me still that for many this remains their modus operandi in all things palin."
Dude, if just living your beliefs had attracted the attention of the worst scumbags in the Democrat Party, and then life wrote you a $2 million check on the spot -- $1 million down (Fox) and $1 million on delivery (TLC + the book) -- and all you had to do to cash it was not run for President, you'd be singing a different tune. Believe it.
btw...I have absolutely no problem with her chasing the dollar, I am all for it. That she used the willingness of so many to believe that she would run and rescue them as a source of those dollars is a bit shabby.
