Hot Mic Captures Republicans' Disappointment with Palin

Re: Hot Mic Captures Republicans' Disappointment with Palin

As I appreciate understatement where possible, I may have been a bit more understated than usual, lest I sound as jaded by political realities as I am.

As for prayer, I generally don't bother God this early in the election season.

Nice.

BTW, WTF is "TANSTAAFL!!!" It's my hangup, but I hate initialisms, and moreso, I hate to look them up on the world wild internet webby thingamadoo.

I can think of a couple of exceptions to: You get what you pay for...you just don't always know what the price will be.

One is healthcare. Generally, most of us have no idea for what we are paying, or what we are actually getting, and with this one we almost never will know what the price will be, except it will be a lot, more often than not. Those that might actually have some idea as to what they are getting, generally will get it at no cost, or at very little cost, i.e. health care providers receiving professional courtesies.

The second, university educational expenses unless you as the student are actually working and paying the bills and have some insight into what courses are being bought.

Raj, Not sure which "Republican heavy weights " you may be referring to but the leadership here at the convention seems delighted.

The only thing controversial in her Alaska record she has is of holding the the good ol' boy network accountable.

What struck me during her speech tonight were two things:

1) She put everyone on notice she is not to be messed with

2) She did something that only a woman can do: she emasculated her opponent and did it with surgical efficiency.

I said it last week and I will say it again: Anyone who underestimates Sarah Palin does so at their own peril.

Standard politics. Even if it isn't true, keep repeating it. Enough people will read/hear it to make it true soon enough.
