Bush administration to blame...Sarah speaks
Anchorage Daily News ^ | Sunday, November 9, 2008 | Sean Cockerham

Q -- Why did your campaign lose? A -- I think the Republican ticket represented too much of the status quo, too much of what had gone on in these last eight years, that Americans were kind of shaking their heads like going, wait a minute, how did we run up a $10 trillion debt in a Republican administration, how have there been blunders with war strategy under a Republican administration.

"Obama’s failed Socialist programs"

That is a phrase that we should be hearing NLT about March and certainly by summer.

The GOP and GOP voters learned NOTHING from 2006. And we all pay.

I blame the US Meida #1, Seditionist Democrats #2, Weak Ass US Congress under GOP control #3, and GW Bush #4.

He was a fine president, but made some politically bad moves (Immigration, SS Reform was a cluster, still born Tax Reform, ect) he alienated his base. Had he gov. by first principles he would be looking at 47-52% approval. Had he had a congress that stood up for something other than Abernoff and the Dukester, he would have been in the 60%+ and we would probably have had a better candidate then McCain the Backbiter.

If a Repub can not defend Free Market Capitalism in the face of a Marxist, he is aint gonna turn out the base. Simple as that.

McShame got 7 million fewer votes than Bush '04.

What would have been the deficit without Sarah?

Ehh...I’m no fan of bashing a friend to appease an enemy.

I can dig why Governor Palin is being blunt, but I also think President Bush is loved by many people, his role is not over yet I think.

I notice that “Team Sarah” is a women's organization. Do they have a male auxiliary?

Perestroika

is already in high gear...

Mr Obama will meet Mr Bush on Monday and is likely to seek the outgoing president’s reassurance that he would not veto any stimulus package that could be passed as soon as next week when Congress meets for a “lame duck” session.

I disagree, Bush does not “suck”, on Social Issues and National Defense, President Bush did a fine job, in my view, one of the best we have had in decades.

Fannie Mae went bellyup, lack of oversight by the Dhims caused it, the MSM refused to go after those crooks and GWB caught the blame.

I’m missing something here.....Bush had the line item veto? Can you elaborate on that statement?

Gov. Palin is right.

It shows what the Democrats will give you if you “reach across the aisle.”
