So what was to keep the people who were using FOIA on her not to just continue the same tactic with her replacement? A half a million bucks in today’s political world is not a lot of money! I know that the Palin’s were people of modest means (that’s actually why I initially was drawn to her because she was a true “citizen politician”), but it does seem strange that a way could not have been found to salvage her governorship. There are Conservatives who could write that kind of a check and it wouldn’t make a dent in their bank accounts.
And just so some of you who really, really like Sarah, calm down, she has the kind of values I want to see in public office. But I want Conservatives who have the ability to win elections (we have had too many McLame’s, Bushes, and Dole’s). And we don’t need any more Akins, Angles, O’Donnells, or Mourdocks either.It pisses me off to no end that these people “tanked” themselves and have kept the Senate in RAT hands. If we don’t get a seat at the table, we don’t get to play the game. I guess if Sarah decides to run in 2016, we will see if she has what it takes to garner enough support to become the nominee. Right now, she would have a headwind if Rubio, Paul, or Cruz decided to make a run! Just pray that the GOPe doesn’t saddle us with “Fat Bastard” Christie, or “Third Turd” Bush!
