Sorry, Dems.
By Mitch Berg
You’ll have to find a new bit of dirt to obsess about:
Palin – running mate of Republican presidential candidate John McCain – violated no ethics laws, according to a report released by the state personnel board on the eve of Election Day.
Not that there was much doubt – and as far as the Democrats were concerned, the rumor served its purpose.

You realize that Sarah Palin becomes irrelevant sometime tonight, before the polls close in Alaska, right?
Maybe Tina Fey milks one more SNL post-election sketch out of her, but then she becomes a historical footnote.
November 4th, 2008 at 12:26 pm
I hope you don’t think she was swift boated, Mitch.
November 4th, 2008 at 12:28 pm
Ahem, that was an alternate investigation by her appointed cronies wasn’t it. The actual investigation, well,we know how that turned out and it still continues.
Flsh

No Flash, it was by the State Personnel Board. They are the ones who actually oversee such matters, not state senators who support Obama. But Mitch is right – the other “investigation” has already served its purpose politically, so you can just make like Emily Litella on this one.

It might just be that, regardless of the outcome today, Palin’s star is rising.
November 4th, 2008 at 12:40 pm
Let’s hope so. She’ll be as successful at the top of a ticket as she’s been at the bottom.

I’ll donate to Palin 2012!! *grin*
November 4th, 2008 at 12:54 pm
Flash, you’re not an election observer this year?
November 4th, 2008 at 1:04 pm
Hmmm, funny. The Star-Tribune web site always put up a mid morning anti-Palin article. They have nothing on this though.

You just don’t get tired of being wrong, do you Chuckwagon?

Angryclown would like to donate some of his multicolored clown jizz.

Flash, are you becoming one of those bitter-clinger people?

Speaking of which – any news on those restraining orders?
November 4th, 2008 at 2:31 pm
It still baffles me why there was any fuss about this. Officer tases his son (stepson?), poaches moose (despite being a nat. resources officer), gets drunk in his black & white, and threatens the father of the governor–and Democrats would blame the governor if she had indeed suggested that he ought to be fired? Say what? Is there no common sense left in the party of equus asinus?

Palin’s star is rising.
Wheee! Flatulence rises too, goshdarnit. Palin has not the attention span nor the ambition for federal office. She’ll opt for some showbiz/talk/reality show gig until she’s spit out the bottom of the porno industry.

It’s nice to see Tim has such intimate knowledge of the ambitions and intentions of Gov. Palin.
I also magically know that Tim likes to dress in adult diapers and secretly yearns to be spanked by Andy Rooney.

Flatulence rises too, goshdarnit.
And it comes as no surprise you can’t tell the difference.
Palin has not the attention span nor the ambition for federal office.
What Yossarian said.
She’ll opt for some showbiz/talk/reality show gig until she’s spit out the bottom of the porno industry.
All of that wisdum, and a clairvoyant, too?
We are truly blessed.

You realize that Sarah Palin becomes irrelevant
Pauline Kael called. She wants her conceit back.
November 4th, 2008 at 6:05 pm
Again, I might be wrong about Palin, but I wouldn’t rule her out too soon.
Remember when you left-leaners did that last? How’d that work out for you?
lol
November 4th, 2008 at 9:44 pm
Glad you can find something to lol about, Baddabing. Are you naturally optimistic or just demented? Cause you’re getting your butt kicked tonight.
November 4th, 2008 at 10:29 pm
I’m getting impatient. Where’s my damn Obama tax cut?
November 5th, 2008 at 7:12 am
I hear, Terry, that if you would have helped Obama out, you wouldn’t have to worry about putting gas in your car or paying your mortgage. 😉
November 9th, 2008 at 9:36 pm
Yes, and rumors of Obama’s place of birth weren’t overplayed, were they.
Hypocrisy seems to be the only thing you’re good at any more Mitch, it’s a shame.
