I think the show did a LOT to further the notion that not all Alaskans are like Sarah Palin.

I am sorry you did not get a chance to speak, I know you would have added a lot to the conversation.

You know, the one’s that are already out there? And not a young prick, I might add…<br /> Can we change the dialog in a way that no self-respecting campaign can? I’m totally ready to be vicious, in a truthful kinda way. No lies, just give ‘em the truth.</p> Goodnight all. Dial-up is too slow to stay awake. Nov.4, Nov.4,Nov.4.

A couple of hours ago on NPR news, she was doing a hurt and defensive shtick over their declining US aid (twice), when there were *absolutely no* preconditions.

My nose is twitching (and hers is probably growing). Off to look for NPR links. See you…… eventually.

We HAVE to push hard. That said, I live in a small community where men still tell 17-18 year olds that the Army is a good option, that Republicans who are no longer their father’s Republicans are better than the socialist Democrats. And I truly believe that Rove is tapping into that mindset. I’ve lost a few friends this month because I’m no longer able to put up and shut up about their politics. Well, mostly their signs.<br /> Being less than gracious, I said their signs make them look like wankers and tools. My bad.<br /> I think we underestimate the knowledge of the average American at our detriment. We are dealing with people who have been programmed to not think. In fact, people who are PROUD of their ignorance and resent thinking.</p> Suzanne, I agree completely. We HAVE to push hard.
