For the record O’Reilly had a story tonight about Sarah and the campaign. It was not pretty. I liked her and she was the only reason I voted for the ticket, but what is coming out about her gives me pause. She didn’t know who the members of NAFTA were or what countries made up North America. She went big time on the expense account spreading the wealth to her family members. She also thought that Africa was a country not a continent and that S. Africa was a state of the country Africa. Ouch sometimes the truth hurts.
It is starting to look like she really wasn’t ready for prime time and was way out of her league. Just as Bambi’s ability to give a good speech doesn’t make him presidential material maybe the same can be said of Sarah. I think based on this information it would be best for her to stay in Alaska and restrict her national exposure to campaigning for Congressmen and being a spokesperson for the Party’s conservative principles.
Barack Obama thought there were 57 states and he was elected president.
How do you know any of that was true ? Do you know the context ? Do you know the source ?
Take this for what it's worth, but anyone who still believes the media when it quotes anonymous sources regarding Republicans (especially after this election) is an idiot.
Do you always believe the propaganda fed to you by the mainstream media? They have been out to destroy Palin. Now they have bitter McCain campaign staffers willing to help. I consider these reports with a lot of skepticism.
Hey, anyone that can drive the democrats that crazy must not be all bad...
Sarah and Joe in 2012 :-)
So she doesn’t have her geography down pat—big deal. It doesn’t rise to the same level as bad policy. And besides, if all it takes to be more “presidential material” is to learn a bit of geography, well, I’m sure Sarah can well prepare herself for ‘12 or beyond. Hey, at least she doesn’t believe there are 57 states!
0bama thinks prosperity grows from the bottom up and he got elected as PRESIDENT!
If there is anything we should have learned, it s that we should be very wary of unnamed sources. People in the McCain campaign may be trying to find a scapegoat as a way to protect their own reputation and reputation. In addition, supporters of other possible 2012 contenders may be trying to dampen enthusiasm for Governor Palin.
We all owe Governor Palin a debt for carring the fight to the opposition this year. We need her as a Republican leader, and we have plenty of time to evaluate her as a possible 2012 contender. At this time, we all need to remember Ronald Reagan’s eleventh commandment: “Thou shalt not speak ill of any fellow Republican.”
We need a big tent that includes lots of folks if we want to win elections. Our arguments among ourselves need to be over policy matters and need to avoid what often amounts to little more than petty name calling. And we certainly need to ignore anyone who, while claiming to be a Republican, anonymously speaks ill of any other Republican. If some accuser does not have the courage to speak openly and subject himself or herself to “cross examination,” then that accuser should be ignored.
