Well yes, and no.
She was in fact run off by the bad guys. Yes. However there is an aspect to Alaskan law in my understanding which makes defending oneself from such games, personally expensive.
Unlike many states in the lower 48.
Alaska leaves the defendant responsible for all expenses in my understanding. And for Palin that rapidly (after her run for VP) was driven over the top by the NATIONWIDE democratic party attack against her.
So yes, Palin did get run off by the bad guys yes in part. However she did so after running for VP, and then only after national democrat party attention was focused on her.
Yes I will admit Palin backed off. Yes I will also admit she did not run, while she had two daughters growing up at home.
A lot of people would agree with that, by the way.
All that said, I sure hope she this time, runs big.
:D
What if someone me or someone meets with Sarah Palin and convinces her to run. I can write something up to tell her that will convince her. I met her at a book signing before.( and she is a pretty woman in person lol)..what do you think of this idea?
