Who didn’t see this one coming? Details are still sparse on exactly why Sarah Palin has ‘decided’ to resign, but rumors are spreading across the internet that it could be related to a yet to be announced indictment.

This is no loss for the political community as a whole, and in the end probably the best thing to happen to the Republicans since the election.

Couldn’t have expressed her plans for America better myself…

Sarah Palin has been the bulldog used by the McCain campaign to get the message out there about Obama “Pallin’ around with Terrorists.” Maybe they should have looked more closely into her actual ties with the Alaska Independence Party before using her as their stooge. When the story first broke around a month ago, Palin claimed her only tie was a video that she made as her “Duty as Mayor” to welcome them to the town.

That doesn’t seem to make sense, as a Mayor is not required to recognize a political secessionist party, and no one would have looked down on her for turning her back on them.

So why did she do it? Maybe it was because Palin’s husband was a member of the group until 2002? Maybe because she grew up in Alaska and hates America herself? Until we have actual documented talk of her true feelings, we can obviously only speculate.

McCain is confused.

The new path for the McCain campaign of constant attacks on Obama’s “Past” are getting extremely annoying.   McCain appears to be in a last ditch effort a month away from the election.  Having Sarah Palin issue the attacks just makes McCain look that much more weak and feeble.  So Obama had a fund raiser thrown by a guy that was a “domestic anarchist” back in the 1970′s, as long as it wasn’t Obama and this isn’t his close friend or aide, or adviser, I could care less.  Currently that person (William Ayers) is a distinguished professor at the University of Illinois.

It’s grasping at straws and pointless.  I’m sure everyone knows someone they met in their past or was even friends with at some time, that has a checkered history themselves.   Prove to me that Obama has done ANYTHING illegal (Like McCain’s Keating Scandal) and I will listen.  Until then give it a rest.

At least go out with some dignity McCain, don’t go down in history as a George W. Bush clone.

Let’s make sure everyone knows the facts about McCain.

In a somewhat expected turn, the McCain campaign has started to lose the women voters they attracted after adding Sarah Palin to the ticket and having her speak at the Republican National Convention.  In what was started as a political stunt in the first place, to attract the women that felt left out by the Democrats when they chose Barack Obama over Hillary Clinton, the McCain campaigns boosted numbers have started to decline.

In the first time since the campaign began, Obama’s numbers are over 50% with a larger majority of women voters siding with him.  As well as McCain having a larger number of voters still “uncertain” about their choice.  It appears women haven’t been very happy watching gaffe after gaffe coming out of Palin’s mouth.  It does women absolutely no good to have a moron close to the Presidency.

I was never a Hillary Clinton supporter, and have always supported Barack Obama, but at least we all knew Hillary was very intelligent.  She could have gone to the White House without setting women back forty years.

Palin should have never been so hastily put on the ticket, and the person who picked her should be fired from the McCain campaign.

The GOP is most certainly holding it’s collective breath while waiting for the Vice Presidential debates next Thursday.  If anyone has yet to see one of the few interviews Palin has been allowed to do since she was tapped as the Republican VP Nominee you must be living in a cave.

While Biden has given over 100 interviews since the announcement of his nomination, Palin has given a total of four interviews, and they all make headlines.  Not for her eloquent answers or grand ideas, but for the gaffes that she makes in each and every interview. To be fair, Biden has had a few gaffes of his own, but that’s expected when giving more then one interview a day every day.

Palin is sure to please those of us supporting Obama/Biden in 2008, when she makes her appearance at the debates.  The Republicans did have a small win in their successful change request to the format for the first debate that drastically lowered the free speaking time to two minutes, instead of the usual five minutes.  The Republican campaign knows it would be disastrous to allow Palin to speak her mind for an extended period of time in an unscripted setting.

It might be a smart move for the McCain campaign to sneak Tina Fey from Saturday Night Live into the debates in place of Palin.  With her striking resemblance and uncanny impression, I’m sure the majority of the American public would be fooled, and she would most definitely do a better job speaking on the fly.

Governor Palin claims to have watched Tina Fey “With the volume down” calling it “Hilarious.”

For the last few weeks, I have been sitting here wondering what McCain had in mind when he picked Palin. It obviously wasn’t to get the best person for the job (She doesn’t even know what that job IS What does the VP Do?? .)

Sarah Palin?

She believes in “Abstinence Only” education, while her underage pregnant daughter prepares for her first child.

Without going into everything wrong with Palin, she appears as a parody of what happens when things go too far to the right. We start praying for oil pipelines, forbid abortion no matter the circumstance, preach abstinence instead of actual education, and let a self-declared “Pitbull Hockey Mom” have a chance at being President (noting that McCain has a 1 in 3 chance of not surviving his first term.) If Palin doesn’t know what the VP does, can someone please ask her if she even knows what the President does?

There was a time in this country that we wanted the best and the brightest to run our government, now for some reason we have thrown out the need to be bright. I personally would prefer someone a lot smarter then I am running this country. Someone with enough compassion to care that our country is going down the drain and not just worried about having a cool job title like Vice President next to their name.

As I watched the Presidential debates last night, I started to wonder if we would even have to choose during the election, as it appeared McCain might not make it through the debates. He appears feeble and weak. This worries me to no end, Palin becoming President would be the final straw for this country.

At times I have seriously pondered whether or not the GOP picked Palin to show that it doesn’t matter who they pick for either spot, they can spin it into a win. They were successful in the Bush re-election when everyone at first believed it to be impossible. I believe he would be elected a third time, if he had the ability to run. They seem to be doing pretty well with McCain and he is a Bush clone with a military record. McCain likes to distance himself from Bush, but the truth will not deny his voting record, 90% overall with Bush, 95% with Bush in 2007.

For the sake of this country, I truly hope the majority that are planning to vote for Bush McCain, either forget to vote or change their minds.

What are your thoughts?   Is the GOP working with Ashton Kutcher on this election? Punk’d
