This guy said "....... he 'shed his family,' his wife and two kids...."

Is there some reason I ought to read this guy's book? Mrs. Daniels' story is probably more interesting.

[samtheman]

And Romney is your average liberal.

[pgkdan]

The people who buy that argument are a small minority in the GOP. That’s one of the reasons her negatives are so high. She’s seen as a quitter. You can make as many excuses as you like but I’ll never feel comfortable giving her my vote unless she’s the only option versus obama. And there are a whole lot of folks who feel the same way. She probably has about 30-40% support among my Tea Party group. No one hates her or anything like that but she is not the choice among most conservatives that I know...even among some who think highly of her.

When he wrote this book he pretty much informed us which god he puts at the top of his personal totem pole.

This guy said "....... he 'shed his family,' his wife and two kids...."

Good catch!

To speak up when he saw things he didn't agree with "went against all that investment of time and energy that I put into her," said Bailey. He said he "shed his family," his wife and two kids, to singularly focus on Palin during her rise to the governor's office and beyond.

Wow! What a psycho!

[Outlaw Woman]

Interesting.
The point about schedules was brought up a few months ago. I don’t remember who threw out the accusation but stated that Palin was never on time or cancelled appointments without notice and then proceeded to name Mark Levin’s show and also Hannity’s show. Both adamantly said Palin was on time and that it was a lie about her missing/rescheduling.

I wonder why that particular thing keeps coming up?

[Scotsman will be Free]

LOL! Good point.

[samantha]

Was Ronald Reagan a quitter?

[samantha]

sounds like unrequited love.

[martin_fierro]

Ecce Homo.

Because it points to a perceived “vanity.”

It is brought up about people to “prove” that they care only for themselves, and that “everyone else can just wait for them.”

As the social justice crowd suggests that us conservatives speak in “code”, so don’t they.

I guess my counterpoint would be, knowing a lot of folks in this kind of media, that if she were continually late, or blew off interviews—her career would have been over long ago.

Meetings, appointments, etc. I’ve worked for tons of people that blew that stuff off. Doing it without notice is rude, but they did not get fired.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

sounds like unrequited love.

Or a stalker.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

You can make as many excuses as you like but I’ll never feel comfortable giving her my vote unless she’s the only option versus obama.

Coming right up!

[Jeff Chandler]

You do the scene over, and over again, no matter how good the first take is

I've been in commercials too. They also like to get plenty of takes so they can piece different portions of them together when they edit it.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

The statute of limitations has long since run out ... but that only applies to the enforcement of the law, not public perceptions of same.

So, on a scale of 1-10, how does that compare with laundering hundreds of millions of Iranian campaign contribution dollars through pre-paid debit cards?

^5 !

[pgkdan]

How did you feel about Ronald Reagan?

Sarah Palin is not Ronald Reagan. A little like Pat Buchanan perhaps, but not Reagan.

[gov_bean_ counter]

That’s one of the reasons her negatives are so high.

Got any Rasmussen polling data on that specific issue?

[Eska]

I don't care what anybody says in their books. Palin was a great Gov up here and Alaska benefited immensely from her leadership. She straightened all the corruption out, spent the bucks when it was cost effective & good government, set the oil companies back on their heels (never been done before up here) and generally was a fantastic executive. Probably never see another Gov as effective as Palin was either.

Palin is just like you & me; every body has faults & makes mistakes; one thing for sure;;; Palin kept the trust of Alaskans at the center of her politics and everybody I talk to wishes she was back as the Gov. Heck even that leftie Shawna Moore (Moore Up North) now says she wishes Palin was back in charge: because even the hated Palin had enough Wally Hickel in her makeup to do Ak right. I about fell out when I first heard Moore say that as she was the leader in smearing Palin on tv and in local news.

As in need of Palin the Country is, I wish she had just stayed on as gov and not got involved with McCain.Palin would have been re-elected with a 99% margin and Alaskans would know that everything was doing just fine with Palin in charge.

I don't care about all that dirt they are digging up anyway; I do care about if Alaska is doing good and with Palin it was.

[pgkdan]

Please tell me what elected office Ronald Reagan resigned from.
