Right and im not defending him at all. hes a joke.
I am saying that the attacks on Palin were not “normal”. I have never seen anything like them before. I don’t think most people had.
She’s a smarter person than that.
She should have known that her 17 year old daughter being pregnant would be an issue. Was it right to make it an issue and attack Bristol personally? No. But this is politics. And she was going up against the biggest thugs in the game.
The campaign knew it would happen. Sarah knew it would happen or else she wouldn’t have informed the McCain camp about the pregnancy during the vetting process.
Point is, simply because she was viciously attacked in 2008 doesn’t mean we should automatically elect her to vindicate her. That is not going to help this country.
