My guess is that someone who coached Palin probably had a few drinks and told their friends a few confidential anecdotes about the process, which were then embellished by an overzealous Obama supporter. Seems like the Republicans have been rather gracious losers, but the Dems are inexplicably Sore Winners as exemplified by these ridiculous portrayals of Palin as a Diva and Obama’s cheap shot at Nancy Reagan. Such hubris will come back to bite them on the a*s.
exactly. I don’t know how many times I’ve heard on TV or the radio or from dem friends or whatever that Obama won and now we all have to get behind him and support him and he’s our President and we all want the best for the country. Which I agree with. But, when Bush won in 2000 or 2004 I don’t recall anyone saying that. I don’t recall any dems saying we need to get behind Bush. I don’t recall the media telling us all how we need to support him.
Speaking of Obama’s shot at Nancy Reagan, at least Bush was President when Ronnie passed. If a dem was in office there would have been no nat’l ceremony, no lying in state, none of all the great honors and respects that he got.
This is certainly the dems time now. But the pendulum will swing. It always does.
