As I was watching Sarah Palin these past weeks, even before her surprise announcement that she was stepping down as Governor of Alaska – to do what, exactly? – something kept nagging at me. What did she remind me of? Finally I figured it out: She's the Fatal Attraction of the Republican party.
In the movie, Glenn Close plays an attractive and seductive woman with whom the married Michael Douglas character has a vigorous fling, never dreaming she is so loopy she will end up stalking him and his family. In one horrifying scene, Ms. Close's character boils the family bunny.
As Republican presidential candidate John McCain's vice-presidential nominee and political quickie, Ms. Palin burst almost completely unknown onto the U.S. political scene, and quickly became the longed-for hope of the Republican party. But she had not been vetted or prepared thoroughly, and despite her obvious shrewdness, charm and talent, Ms. Palin faltered badly on the campaign trail, becoming a liability for Mr. McCain as she fought off charges about her ethical behaviour as a governor, mangled her words and famously revealed her astonishing ignorance of foreign issues.

Nope. Instead she stalked the scene, flailing away at her critics, at one point carrying on an increasingly non-sensical war of words with Late Show host David Letterman about a tasteless reference to her daughter, and even boasting she could beat U.S. President Barack Obama in a long-distance run.

Now, with an abrupt decision to abandon ship that shocked many Republican insiders, and a bizarre, semi-coherent resignation speech mangled in syntax and analogy (“only dead fish go with the flow,” she said mystifyingly at one point), I'm wondering whether Sarah Palin has boiled her own bunny.

Wow. Their hate knows no bounds. They have now reached asburdity.
C’mon, comparing Sarah Palin to ‘Fatal Attraction’, they’ve jumped off the deep end.
If I had to guess who wrote this I would have said Maureen Dowdy. What with the movie references and all.
I knew Judith Timson was a DOG in late-late-middle-age before I clicked on the source.
Woof!
This article is from the group that started wearing knee pads 24/7 once The Magic Kenyan appeared on the scene.
In the same breath that they try so hard to tear her down, they’ll dismiss her as an irrelevant Right-Wing moonbat.
It’s getting positively hilarious at this point.
At least Sarah is beautiful enough to star in a movie. And a whole lot smarter and capable than any of the Hollywood and journalistic Dims.
These folks are completely sick.
Judith Timson
Wow,you're right.As my Dad would say...with his finest Irish wit..."I wonder how much she charges to haunt a house?"
Palin Derangement Syndrome is peaking early!
and Michael Jackson is still...............dead
What a nasty hag!
Miss Timson looks like a cross between Hillary Clinton and the head Keebler elf.
The jealousy of the Liberal woman. So sad
That’s an insult to those Keebler elf cookies, they are AWESOME..Why is it that every lib looks like a rodent
