Most of Palin's supporters I talked to acknowledged that they had never heard of her until Sen. John McCain plucked her from obscurity last year and made her his running mate.
They didn't care that she had quit the governorship of Alaska to personally cash in -- for millions -- with a ghostwritten-book bonanza.
Or that the last elected office for which Palin finished her term was mayor of a town smaller than Vinton.
When you wade into a pool of Palinmania like the one that collected outside Valley View on Sunday morning, you realize that stuff doesn't matter.
Before you know it, you're up to your hips in the same kind of cult of personality for which conservative critics blasted supporters of President Obama.
The passion runs deep in that pool (and so does the suspicion of all media save Fox News).
But the generalizations behind those passions are sound-bite shallow.
For that reason, the water seems rather murky.

But everyone knew who BO was before he decided that voting PRESENT was an excellent resume item.
And our sane alternatives would be...
“...They didn’t care that she had quit the governorship of Alaska to personally cash in — for millions — with a ghostwritten-book bonanza. ...’
And how long was the Kenyan Klod a senator?
Who wrote his book? (Not him, he’s cleverly paid to have all evidence of his past, school records, etc. concealed).
How much is he worth? (Remember, he’s never had a real job....)
QED
And here we have the libs in the Roanoke Times sneering at them all. Why this rag stays in business is beyond me, especially since it notoriously published the State Police database listing all concealed carry permit holders in the commonwealth and brought the roof down on itself.
These schmucks are better than GPS at pinpointing who the RAT Party is truly worried about for 2012...
One reason they stay in business is that Freepers would rather post columns from it then conservative newspapers like the Phila Bulletin and talk radio like Limbaugh would rather quote from it instead of the Richmond Times Dispatch.
So the Roanoke Times gets hits on their website and the Philadelphia Bulletin does not - and the Bulletin goes out of business.
Makes you understand why conservatives are called the stupid party.
My G-D, do they REALLY want to go there?
The list we could make about the Obamatrons not caring that their boy-
-has no proof of citizenship (flame away)
-no proof he attended Columbia University http://www.nysun.com/new-york/obamas-years-at-columbia-are-a-mystery/85015/
(In fact, many students who have PROOF they attended during the dates Obama supposedly was a student, don’t recall ever meeting him or knowing him).
-became senator after having every other candidate removed from the ballot by questionable tactics including opening sealed records of Ryan’s divorce http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/chi-0406220247jun22,0,3744432.story
-Was/is friends with known domestic terrorists
-Was mentored by a known communist
-Was/is friends with and was mentored by a known and outspoken racist, Rev. Wright
-Was strongly supported by Muslim terrorists in his bid to become POTUS
-on and on and on the list goes.
-has a wife with a HORRID “belt obsession.”
(You can be sure this would “matter” and would be reported and made fun of daily if Palin wore belts under her armpits outside her sweaters the way MO does).
Freepers care to add to this list?

Sorry for the repeated posts. FR kept freezing up when I tried to post. Grrr!
I would say it is time to cancel your subscription to this dubious and “murky” newspaper.
They can take our money and then they diss us.
Get your local news on the internet.
Maybe incipient dementia, too, since he seems to have NO problems using the phrase "personality cult" with NO embarressment.
Frankly, this writer is abjectly pathetic.... should be pitied...
I’ve never subscribed to it, but first became aware of its liberal shenanigans when one of its loon columnists published the Virginia state concealed carry database.
My wife got to tyhe book before me. She has no axe to grind. I asked her if she thought there was a ghostwriter. She said maybe, if they were sitting with Sarah doing dictation. READ THE BOOK. These guys will NEVER do it.
LOL, it is sad is’nt it. Their lack of logic is maddening, well its what you get from a gay liberal columnists whose diet is made up of semen, Indian food and 4 dollar coffees.
BWWWHHHAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
Well.
That's some description, much more than just plausible. LOL
pb, you're a genuine wordsmith. ;^) LOL
