Mom in law will be silenced very soon. This WILL NOT be covered in the MSM with the exception of maybe KO.

Her two home state papers dissed her, her constituents think she's shady and scandalous, her fellow Republicans think she's a joke as governor and now even her OWN mother-in-law is dogging her. Unbelievable.

Smart woman. From what I hear Sarah herself was also for Obama just in July 08 as well as her huband and her son.

The real sad part about this woman is that she holds secrets with McCain and did not inform her husband until Friday. She talks about family first but she put politics first. That was a family decision so I guess she puts McCain ahead of her family.

Pathetic!

Top Alaska Republicans puzzled by Palin pick.

The Anchorage Daily News reports that the state’s leading Republicans are expressing shock and bewilderment over John McCain’s selection of their governor as his running mate:

State Senate President Lyda Green said she thought it was a joke when someone called her at 6 a.m. to give her the news................

Yes, maybe mother-in-law of Sarah Palin and the sister of Cindy McCain - both OBAMA supporters - could do a campaign commercial explaining why they want Obama-Biden to govern the nation rather than their own kinfolk.

This is news?

[nellie]

Read the whole article. It's worthwhile.

[teron678]

yep, the truth hurts ... right?

[londongal]

Yup, yup!

[eddiervc]

Hellooo...earth to the media.... the emperor has no clothes... this VP nominee is a joke and an embarrassment...

[boycottrightwingthings]

Yup, yup, she sure is an embarassment, but thank GOD not for my party, we are united and this choice is such a JOKE on women and the rest of the USA. Obama Biden 08'

[ThunderclapNewman]

When even her mother-in-law isn't sure, her candidacy is in deep trouble. sure

[BetterDeadthanRedState]

She brings being a woman and a conservative to the ticket. Only one of those is a good thing.

[oneeyedodin]

How can an 'educated' person be a Ch-rist-ian F-un-dam-enta-list??????????????????

[ThunderclapNewman]

All it takes is a strong desire to avoid facts and science at every turn.

I think they may have given the wrong address for their rain prayers. They interchanged the cities?

It's hard to put in change orders to god once he sets the wheels in motion.

THE RIGHT WING VAGINA MONOLOGUES........

If Sarah Palin, mayor of small town and freshman governor of a state with less population than Austin, TX, is fit to inherit the presidency....then it must be in the tradition of Millard Fillmore, Warren Harding or yes, George Walker Bush.

It is simple. PUMA represents the conservative and right wing women and radical womyn who vote on the basis of body parts and not what the candidate supports.

Palin is the antithesis of Hillary Clinton.....by any yardstick you wish to measure. She is extreme right wing reactionary and the darling of the anti-choice - creationism and anti-liberal or progressive cult of her party. She is a Dominionist whose theological views should be, in her view, the laws of the land.
