Sarah's not waving goodbye!

I think I see the logic in the timing of this sudden resignation. The next gubernatorial race in Alaska is 2010. If she announced her intentions to run for a Federal office, she'd be a lame duck Governor. If she simply walked close to the election date, it would leave the chair open for a ... gasp... Liberal big name Democrat to sit down.

By leaving now, she give the State time to get to know the Lieutenant Governor, Sean Parnell. See, you all said "who?" Sitting for a year as Governor will give him the time to get out there and cement his hold. A sitting Governor is always harder to unseat.

I bet this is some kind of deal made with the Republican Party to try to hold on to Alaska and at the same time move Sarah to the Federal stage!

I can't wait! It's gonna be interesting... you betcha!

Sarah Palin at home

My sister Sandra has accused me of having a "girl crush!" Sheesh how silly is that? Just because every other post, or even every post in a row is about Sarah doesn't' mean that I am enamoured of her does it? Really... does it? OMG! I love her, I can't help it and it makes no sense whatsoever! Politically, we couldn't be further apart but I can't get enough of her.

This video is another great one for her. I really do think the pundits on the Republican side should have just let her out and be Sarah at her best!

I'm thinking of nominating her for leadership of the Liberal party. We're gonna haf ta work on her platform and maybe the dropping of the endings of every word but other than that... (wink)

Oh and I wanna send a shout out to my sister Sandra way up there in Sturgeon Falls, not as far north as Wasilla Alaska but compared to where I am, it might as well be!

Sarah Palin... leave her alone!

YOU picked her! YOU vetted her! YOU enjoyed the hundreds of thousands that attended her rallies! YOU were her aids who passed her the phone when the "President of France" called! YOU are the ultimate responsibility!

I don't care that she answered the door in a towel... for the love of terry cloth, you were supposedly her allies, supporters and advisers! You should be ashamed and go crawl back into that poli-sci hole from whence you came!

Again, I don't agree with her in any way, shape or form but I love that woman.

Sarah, if you ever come to Windsor Ontario Canada, look me up!

History in the making; today's the day for the USA!

Well, polls are open, lines are long and I cannot wait to see what happens! It's been a very long time since I've been this excited over an election.

There's a Maverick in da' house! (Some you can click more that once.) Sorry, click the link, not the pic!

Thanks again Patty!

Live from NY... it's Sarah Palin! (In case you missed it.)

*Apparently SNL pulled the video? sorry*
Like I've said before, I'm against just about everything she's for... but ya gotta love the gal.

The best thing I found on the net today! Rednecks for Obama!

“We Hunt, Fish, Drink Beer and Support Barack Obama” Gotta love it! Sarah must be spinnin' on her red high heels.

Just type it into your browser. sorry :)

Palin - Biden debate... SNL style.

Not too far off from the actual debate! hehe

It's a tie... in my humble Canadian opinion

She did it, she did her way. He was kind, respectful and made his points. Biden's emotions getting away from him was touching. She tried hard to speak right to "the people." Still don't like her politics, but like I said, McCain should have let her out of the box long ago.

1/2 way through... Dang she's good!

Ok, she's stammering a bit right now over Iraq, but up to now! Holy pit bull. She just keeps going back to that plain spoken, smiling, slightly self depreciating Sarah and she's doing ok. I still don't agree with her politics but dang, she can talk a circle back to something she actually understands like nobody else! She's holding her own and Joe's trying hard to "talk plain" so not to turn off "Joe 6 pack!"

Oh oh... name tossing of foreign leaders going on... showing she can pronounce them I think?

T minus 2 hours and counting!

I can hardly contain myself! I'm so excited... you know what? Sarah may just surprise us all. I've been saying for weeks they should just let her out of the box, let her go at it! Let her be the hockey-Mom, small town, moose huntin' gal that she is! Lets see what happens. (Again I have NOTHING in common with her political views, I just am excited about the excitment she's created.) This should be the most watched VP debate of all time! Crack open the 6 pack, it's time to party!

Sarah Palin... she's coming out!

As much as I'd like to watch the English, Canadian leaders' debate tonight, especially since Steven Harper has turned himself into Mr. Rogers in that soft blue sweater... I cannot. It's too good to pass up, it's the VP debate! woo hoo



To the tune of the famous Looney Tunes & Muppet show song...

Tonight's the night, the big debate.
I bet'cha that, it's gonna be great.
No more being cloistered, she's hittin' the stage
In glasses that're all the rage!

The secret service, will be there;
just in case there is a scare.
If commies show up, they're soon on the run
'cause Sarah's got her gun.

The issues here... oh never mind!
The point of them, she seldom finds.
Joe 6 pack's in the place,
On with the VP race!


ps... Admitting my ignorance here, I had to Google, "joe 6 pack." Apparently it means, Joe Average, or John Q. Public. I guess I should have pulled out the Redneck dictionary?

Presidential debate... whatever! Bring on the VP's!

I'm going to watch the Presidential debate but what I'm really waiting for, and I've never watched before, is the VP debate! woo hoo... Think Joe will wear lipstick? woof!

US campaign of smear! (aka - the Presidential race)

While I do not support 90% of Sarah Palin's views, I do not think her daughter being pregnant has anything to do with her running for VP. There may be arguments that if she cannot run her family, how can she run a country but teenagers do what teenagers want to do in the best of households. Bristol Palin is not running for office. She has a long and hard future, though likely not as hard as her present! Imagine being 17 and going through a pregnancy never mind the whole world now knowing.

The rumours about Palin have been flying since the announcement of her being chosen by McCain for his running mate. He did not chose the 17 year old daughter! He chose Sarah. Should she turn out to be an unwise choice, so be it. Leave the kids alone, especially leave the vulnerable 17 year old alone.

The irony of the movie "Juno" and now this eh? I do realize Juno was the pregnant teenager's name and not the city, Juneau, in Alaska but now it does seem a tad prophetic no?

I do, however, think that perhaps this shows that preaching birth control by abstinence may NOT be the wisest choice?
