I don't really care what kind of glasses she wears and I've never even noticed the frames.

That's just a reference to MoDo's screaming Jurassic leap, in her first column the day after Palin was introduced by the McCain campaign. Dowd's first move was (for some inscrutable reason) to name Sarah's eyeglass frame couturier, before tearing her down six different other ways. I never quite got it, but it was remarkable. So I remark it sometimes. Maybe someone will explain it some day.

Her kids' acting-out has mostly been Bristol, who's a knothead, and now her son, who appears to have some PTSD issues. The old man has been there for the kids when Mom has been out politicking, or else she's taken them along. I don't remember, though, anyone laying off Steve Ford's or Amy Carter's acting-out on the old man. Are you sure you've got a good meme there, or is it Sarah's failure to attend Princeton or Georgetown Law after all?

I’m just of the opinion that a mother’s influence greatly determines the morality of her children.

I’m not an enemy of Palin, although I have a negavitive view of her. I’m just not seeing her as someone who influences great numbers of Americans.

But I’m not a Trump fan either except in the entertainment front. I find him to be magnetic, but I don’t see him as the great hope of conservatives.

It would have been smarter for Sarah to bide her time and then hitch her boat to the candidate rather than become embroiled in the circus like atmosphere of Trumpism.

Concur, I was disappointed to see her endorse (tho' it was timely). I think she got sold something. Not all her endorsements have been solid people: Marco Rubio got turned and corrupted because he was a neophyte and didn't know what Karl Rove is; Nikki Haley was like a girl who gives it up on prom night because so many of the other girls are doing it, it must be the "popular" thing to do. (Lack of integrity.) She's completely an E-GOP tool now.

So Sarah can't read character like blind Tireisias or the emperor Alexius Comnenus (nobody could lie to him), and I don't think she can see through Trump.

Cruz is the better candidate for what she and other Tea Party people want to accomplish. That old "he's unpopular, he can't get elected, everybody hates him" is 100% age-old 9th-grade calumny, but unfortunately it works for lots of people.
