I disagree with her about Governor Palin's readiness, but, having said that, she is correct otherwise.

I am constantly surprised by the diligence the MSM displays in overlooking the obvious parallel that shows them up so badly, between an Alaska governor running for national office, and two other small-state governors who ran for the Presidency, without all the ice picks about lack of international "experience", in both 1988 and 1992.

And then, of course, Bill Clinton proceeded to slime the office for all time. Both his own conduct, and that of the homosexual men in his retinue who made a point of announcing that they had "broken in" the White House by committing an act of sodomy somewhere on its premises, wildly exceeded in their repugnance any imaginable shortcoming or embarrassment one might speculatively imagine the nation might suffer because Sarah Palin didn't know her sherpas from Queen Elizabeth's stick-in-waiting.

Press Reports are now coming to us that the NY Governor is considering appointing impeached BILL CLINTON to the U.S. Senate as a “Crossover” Senator. This as a “Temporary” holdover appointment till the 2010 NY Senator Elecitions.

NUTS.

Sarah has that lean and hungry look. Such woman are dangerous. Caroline has the look of, you know. (She's not getting out of her comfort zone, so she will do what her party bosses tell[s] her to do.)

Astute observation of the week bump.

A couple of observers wondered if Sarah is part Indian by extraction, since she has that special vivacity and presence very commonly seen among Amerinds.

....NY Governor is considering appointing impeached....

Maybe the new guv is secretly a decent guy, and he is pursuing a path intended to make New York voters reexamine their 'Rat tendencies, along the lines of "had enough yet?"

Eventually even New Yorkers will reach their puke point.

No they won’t. They are a lost cause.
