(In all seriousness, it’s wonderful that Rachel can have success being WHO SHE IS, in her whole person and not just politically or sexually, and that she is in a very happy relationship to boot.)

I’m hoping her attitude will make her poison to the GOP. If not, if they feel stuck with her, my guess is her strident arrogance and fanaticism isn’t going to play well with the mainstream, although she will have a group of diehard supporters, which I personally find hard to watch.

I do not think Sarah Palin is a stupid woman. She was clearly over her head. I cannot imagine why or how she found the scrutiny her daughter Bristol was under a surprise. Bristol actually got off very lightly. One of the big turn offs to me about Ms. Palin was her willingness to expose a vulnerable 17-year old in crisis to the world media. Now I see Ms. Palin was merely clueless. Do they not have supermarket taboids in AK??? I practically live under a rock in a rural area of a rural state and even I would know better than to do that to my child.

Thanks for this. I find it encouraging. I was afraid Sarah was savvier than she apparently is.

Few people cause me to pink up like a school girl just to think of them but aiaiai… Beauty. Brains. ohYum.
