| New Palin book exposing babygate about to hit shelves in a couple months. |
|
Should be interesting. I do think the media was negligent in even asking Palin to answer a few simple questions in the face of the evidence that suggests something was not right regarding that pregnancy.

| 9. It speaks to her character, and her willingness |
|
to construct complex scenarios bordering on the delusional to further her own self-interest.
If Tripp is not hers, and that's at least plausible, given the many inconsistencies surrounding his birth, then what is one to think about her integrity, or lack thereof? It's not about the baby, per se, as some here would like to frame it.
If Sarah ever gets to be president (and who knows), Americans will get to experience the full extent of her psychological dysfunction, and they're not gonna like what they see.

| 15. There are things FIRMLY in the official record that show her lack of character - |
|
why go into conspiracy theory. On this, hold her to the official story. I suspect that few women will agree with her decision. In 2008, she was the VP on a ticket. If a person was already committed to vote for McCain, it is normal for them to ignore any qualms they might have with the VP. Now, though the fight will be between Republicans - and if she becomes a threat, they will attack her - and there is a lot to attack.
Especially here, when the OFFICIAL Palin story shows reckless disregard for the health and safety of the baby. Ask any woman you know who ever had a baby. Would you get on an airplane in Texas for a flight to Seattle AFTER your water broke? Would you then take a second flight to Anchorage? Would you then drive miles from Anchorage to a smaller city to give birth to your child? Especially when this is a 5th child.
All this was apparently done without having a doctor check her out in Texas. Apparently the story is that they wanted the baby born in Alaska. This begs the question why she took long flights out of the state so late in her pregnancy.
Is this the kind of judgment that we want in a leader?
Only if she emerges as the nominee,do we have to worry about her at all. Then, from all polling, nearly 60% of voters reject her as being President. We would then need to simply give people more reason - based on positions and issues - to continue believing she is unacceptable.
Don't give her any ammunition in her constant claims of being attacked viciously.

She was trying to say how important it was to her that the baby be born in Alaska and exaggerated, stupidly.
If her water had really broken, she would have gone to the hospital.

| 3. Let it go. Sarah is a money-grubbing attention-seeker who doesn't have a chance at |
|
national office after her half-term as governor. So her reproductive history, or the reproductive history of her children, is a matter that will concern only busy-body gossips

| 8. Her ex-aide, Frank Bailey, has a book out on the book store shelves right now. |
|
Based on their exchange of e-mails.
Whether or not it's for the sake of publicity for the book, Bailey claims that he could never forgive himself if Palin were elected president.

| 11. I've had a $100 bet going |
|
with a friend who's convinced there's nothing to Babygate. But he doesn't know that when I win, I will take him out for dinner instead of collecting the money.

| 13. How does your friend ever win that bet? |
|
The family could release DNA test results proving that Todd and Sarah Palin were the kid's parents, and you could still argue that the results were falsified.
My guess is that those two are indeed Trig's parents, but I wouldn't make a bet like that, because of the practical difficulties. On the other hand, if some bombshell does come out, then it's easy to see how you win.

| 12. Don't say let it go please. She has used her family on the trail. She has used this innocent |
|
baby. The book is going to deal strictly with Sarah and her lies. None of the children will be at the center of this book. According to Immoral Minority who talked about this book coming out around Jul or Aug. They have the facts. If she lies about the most important thing like this then she will and has lied about everything. Please take the time if you haven't yet read two books that have come out very recently. Blind Alligence and Mr Bailey. He uses personal e-mails and was a very close aide. What he shows doesn't scare you to realize this woman should never hold any office. I would feel the same way if she were a democrat. She is very mean spirited and never lets things go. She spends to much time watching and listening what people are saying that she didn't have time to governor. Facts in his e-mails and Mr. Dunn's book "the lies of sarah palin" show they got more information with people in the republican party. By the time she got back from running as VP she hardly was able to work with anyone even in her own party. They all hated her. Hated her so much they finally overruled a bill she wanted. That upsether so much.

| 14. I wish more stories were about why idiots and hypocrites like Palin |
|
are being enabled by the GOP, rather than the tiresome details of her personal life.
The psychological effect of having such powerful people hiding behind the most dysfunctional personalities is profoundly demoralizing. As opposed to having real candidates discussing and debating intelligent solutions to all of the crises this country is faced with--we are being forced to witness endless gossip on the lowest levels possible, as if this is actually politics.
I do hope these books have enough fodder in them to defeat her, but more than that, I hope people grow tired of being jerked around and start focusing on the puppet masters.
Hey I can hope.

That woman has a thousand things wrong with her. Why focus on what is at the same time the flimsiest and the ugliest claim against her? All this does is generate sympathy for that awful woman.
