12 New Stomach-Turning Revelations About Sarah Palin

From the article: Sarah Palin has had a lot of ups and downs in her time in the national spotlight. When she was first nominated, the Alaska governor exceeded expectations by successfully reading from a teleprompter at the Republican National Convention. Then, she sat down with CBS's Katie Couric to disastrous results -- disastrous, hilarious or downright frightening, given your point of view. Any way you look at it, Palin's awful interview with Couric set the bar so low that her embarrassing performance at the vice presidential debate, where she refused to answer the questions and flirtatiously winked at the camera, was deemed a success by many commentators in the corporate media. At least she didn't vomit on stage, seemed to be the general consensus.

Since the debate, though, Sarah Palin has dropped to new lows. She has maliciously gone after Barack Obama, using hate speech, dog whistles and every inexcusable attack in the book.

But no matter how ridiculous or sensational Palin's attacks on Obama are, her venomous words cannot hide all the skeletons that keep pouring out of her unvetted closet. And these are the things that should give the American public cause for concern.

If they're going to use past associations for attacks, they might want to rethink that.

If McClone and Caribou Bigot Barbie are the best the republicants have, they should just quit now.

3. But they won't quit, they'll fight to the bitter end and probably end up challenging the results,

making 2000 look mild by comparison. The return of James Baker part deux.

5. You're absolutely right. It's their MO. That's why we need a landslide...

*fingers crossed*

6. They've been doing that for years

The 2000 and 2004 elections, and their drive for voter ID laws in places in which there has been no confirmed cases of voter fraud. Vote counting fraud--you can hear the crickets.

4. Each of these stories should be front page news.

And if McCain had any sense, which he has proven that he doesn't, he'd jettison her and run real fast the other way... (Oh, right, he can't do that, either...) :scared:
