I think the media did some permanent damage to Palin. She's made out to be the laughing stock of all politics.

I like her a lot, but I also think the damage will be permanent. It shows what $100's of millions in negative adds, and a complicit media can do to damage the mindset the country has about a person.

I hope I'm wrong. I'd love to see her stay in the news.

Wrong.

I think you might have been. ;^) I'd drive to Alaska just to shake her hand if I had the time. Alaska is known as the "Last Frontier" for a reason: you have to be prepared at all times to survive- there's no room for mistakes 'cause it could be deadly.

Therein lies the root of all conservatism. Individualism vs collectivism where if you rely upon others, you may not survive in a 'frontier' because, basically, you're on your own. There are no 'others' a half-hour's drive from Anchorage (for example).

For those not up to the task, life in City America is an option that has proven this election to hold sway by sheer numbers, democratically. And then there were school marms. And then there were Rap Artists.

This election pitted City America against Frontier America. City America won. But City America is corrupt and vile as most socialist systems become. It is Rham Emanuel and Acorn corrupt and vile.

So, City America will rule for four years as those who'd perish in Frontier America force us all to conform to their limited, socialist views.

Frontiers don't just exist in places like Alaska, they exist in our minds and the minds of those who founded this country. Individual liberty has no place in the 'City'. That's it in a nutshell. Too bad, so sad, I really don't care any more.
