GOP vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin took some heat Wednesday from two of Pennsylvania's top political leaders.
Democratic Gov. Ed Rendell told business leaders at a postelection breakfast that John McCain would have had a better chance of winning Pennsylvania with a different running mate, and U.S. Sen. Arlen Specter, a GOP moderate, rejected the idea that the Republican party might belong to Palin.

Saved me the trouble of typing that.......
....not gonna give the RNC a dime—ever-—if someone in the party does not come out a defend Sarah Palin——these attacks are absolutely just plain vile.......Mccain lost because Mccain ran as Bob Dole...
and truly Bush's Fault!

Specter has always been an asshole in my book - this just cements his ranking.
Arlen “the magic bullet” Specter is a creep. and a coward.
We already know what Rendell is.
PA isn’t just blue, it is stupid. What would Murtha have to do to lose - go house to house and pee in everyone’s Wheaties?
The PA GOP moderates can kiss my rear. If McCain had followed their advice, I might have voted for Obama!
Start thinning the herds of these decrepit old mindless stooges.
I will never figure Pennsylvania out . . . and I actually like PA a lot.
My experience is that Pennsylvania is comprised of the following types of voters:
1. Professional malcontents in Philadelphia who are no different than their coutnerparts in any other big U.S. city;
2. Philadelphia suburbanites who have a perpetual self-esteem problem because they see their metro area as a declining version of the New York City or Washington, D.C. metro areas;
3. A lot of old people (I read somewhere that PA has the oldest median age of any state in the U.S. after Florida) who are still waiting for the steel mills to open again, and are content to rely on financial support from various levels of government until they do; and
4. A lot of socially conservative folks from rural areas who are still waiting for the steel mills to open again, and are content to rely on financial support from various levels of government until they do.
Phil Spector is more conservative than Arlen.
And btw, who can forget or forgive GW Bush's campaigning for Specter in 2004 over REAL conservative Pat Toomey?
Specter and GW - two RINO turds.
What does that tell you?
Reminds me of a great line Coulter writes in her latest column:
Like Sarah Connor in "The Terminator," Sarah Palin is destined to give birth to a new movement. That's why the Democrats are trying to kill her.
Nope. Not even if he calls them racists and rednecks. Only the Good Lord can take care of this one.
I believe that any of those three would have fired up the base. They may or may not have inspired as many conservatives as Palin, but they probably would have had a greater appeal to independents and some democrats. Cantor probably would have locked down Virginia and Florida and maybe a few others.
Questioning intelligence... That’s always a part of the attack on Conservatives.
(1) It's not surprising that Murtha - a million time incumbent - defeated a political unknown.
The data will show that PA black voters came to the polls in a way they did not with Kerry and likely will not again for a non-black candidate.
One out of every eight Pennsylvanians live in Philly.
Philly and Indiana are probably the two states where electoral fraud, college turnout and black turnout really mattered.
This candidate produced a perfect trifecta.
I hope they do!
I am pretty sure that Sarah Palin is VERY smart. If I am correct I think a shrewd move for her would be to take several different types of I.Q. tests and then reveal the results and challenge these idiots to do the same thing.
I am SO tired of people getting away with flatly deciding that someone is not smart, or not smart “enough” or even that they are stupid.
We need to have some absolute guidelines for people seeking office from now on. They MUST release their full medical records. They MUST release their school transcripts. They MUST produce a birth certificate. They MUST take an I.Q. test and reveal the results. They MUST release their tax returns and financial interests (maybe they already have to do this). All of this type of stuff would then be off the table from the very beginning and the American people could get the debate over the issues that we deserve to have.
