Sarah Palin just quit her job as Governor of Alaska. The 2012 presidential race has begun!
The pundits are going on about whoever coupld have given her such terrible political advice. Since she doesn’t take advice from anyone but her husband, it seems pretty obvious.
Possibilities:
1) She plans to attend MJ’s memorial service.
2) She is going to work with hubby Todd at the oil company, perhaps as lobbyist or in PR – or better yet, in an Energy Industry organization. Heh, I almost wrote “Thinktank.” As if.
3) An inescapable personal or political crisis looming. Not likely, she wouldn’t recognize an ethical or moral failure if it jumped in her lap and called her “Grandma.”
4) Early preparations for 2012 – the Mayans were right! Alaska is too far from Washington so she really has to get there and make some political allies.
5) She’s going to write a book, do a book tour, go on the lecture circuit – and win a Nobel Prize.
6) Unplanned pregnancy?
Ms. Mallick describes Sarah as having “a sturdy body, clothes that are clinging yet boxy and a voice that could peel the plastic seal off your new microwave.” And that’s the nicest thing she had to say about her.
Plus, Fox News hates Ms. Mallick. I can’t think of a better endorsement.
There’s a video on YouTube of a harpy from Fox News – whose name completely eludes me – attempting to castrate David Warren of the Ottawa Citizen. It really was quite pitiful. She was full of rage and venom at the CBC for allowing Ms. Mallick’s article to stay up on their site. To his credit Mr. Warren quietly explained to her that up in Canada they still have freedom of the press. And that everybody *knows* McCain picked up Palin to get white tr… errrr… the populist vote.

It is telling that when the McCain campaign was looking for a soft place to land Governor Palin’s first interview, they turned to Charles Gibson at ABC, not Ms. Couric. It would have been fun to watch given the implied subtext: “Hey, Governor, I invented spunky; I’ve had a colonoscopy on live network television, so let’s get started on yours.”
The above forums are new, but I’m going to get on there and fill them with Truth.
After the recent discovery that Vice-Presidential candidate Sarah Palin’s Yahoo! account had been hacked, all I could think was “what goes around comes around.” I recently read a book by one of her friends that attempts to justify many of the unethical methods Sarah used to make it in Alaska politics. Too bad to give money to one of her friends, but this thing is a great resource. Read the nice version, then go online with dates and places to get the real story.
It didn’t take long for a discussion forum to show up poking fun at Vice-Presidential Candidate Sarah Palin’s religion/political platform, or what little is known about it. As best I can figure out, she plans to nuke the lower 48 and take her throne in Alaska.
Portions of the first major interview will be televised beginning on Thursday’s “World News with Charles Gibson” and “Nightline.” ABC will also air a special “20/20″ at 10 p.m. Friday devoted to the interview.
