Except for that whole bit where she was for the Bridge to Nowhere before she was against it, was endorsed by Ted "Series of Tubes" Stevens and even
ran a pro-Stevens 527, has roughly the same amount of "feminist" credentials as Phyllis Schafly (i.e. zero), has her own little
abuse-of-power scandal percolating back home, has prayed on-camera for Jesus to bless her state with a new oil pipeline...




...oh yeah, and she has ties to secessionists. A Copperhead in the Party of Lincoln, for fuck's sake.




And as far as anybody can figure out, nobody in the McCain campaign knew any of this before the announcement. Brilliant planning there,
Maverick John. Jesus.

Bridge to Nowhere:

While true it isn't the truth. When she was running for governer she gradually switched positions on it til she

was against it then refused the money when it was allocated after she became Governer. At least that is the

story I heard. Since she had zero control over earmarks anyway (Senators and represenitive do the work.

States can only 'lobby' for them )) It's pretty moot anyway. Besides isn't the job of Governer supposed to

be looking out for thier state? I have a feeling that a lot of Governers wouldn't have given back the money.

Ted Stevens:

As for Ted Stevens, didn't Obama get endorsed by Farakan? You can't control who endorses you. As

for working for him you may have a point though.

"Feminist":

Maybe she isn't a 'feminist'? When did they pass the law that said you have to be a 'feminist' to be

a woman politican?

Personal scandals:

Didn't Hillary go through these same type of scandals? Or is she innocent on account of her

liberalism, 'feminism', and/or democrat status? Also given the nature of them she might have had good

justification for them both. I'll let the investigations decide. Innocent til proven guilty afterall.

Prayer:

No law says you have to be an athiest to run for office and given the revenue a oil pipeline would

bring to Alaska that isn't a bad thing.

Secessionist:

.. and Obama has ties to a terrorist. Your point is what?

"vetting":

He said he did and all the stuff you cited says is that she bucks the system and IS a maverick. As

advertised. I wonder if you dislike her because she is stealing Obama's show?

Seriously though, either way the vote comes out I think we will make out good.
