Alaska Governor Sarah Palin Wins 2008 Rubber Dodo Award

Look B/H, Sarah may or may not be your ordinary crooked Alaskan politician but frankly, she does not impress me as being in the big league even in far away Alaska. Sarah reminds me more of a high school girls softball team than anything. She only got to be governor because the last one acted so badly in his senator to governor to senator nepotism dam the public drama. Like many 3rd world politicos, Alaskan types tend to think of Alaska as their private fiefdom.

She may or may not be totally subject to her husband - Todd - which her religion encourages if not requires. Todd has a very expensive hobby and BP lets him come and go as he pleases. I have a feeling that Alaska is run more out of Warrenville, IL than it is out of Juneau. (BP North America is hq’d at Warrenville). At least in the matters that count.

Whether she abuses her office and busts her ex brother in law in a family feud, BP could care less. She is not very likely to do a re-run as governor anyway. She was definitely an outsider which is not the same as a maverick.

Alaska is a part time job, whether public or private. She is not national level material. Now that she has been exposed as the bimbo she is, believe me, the GOP pros will quietly dismiss her.
Thanks, but no thanks. www.youtube.com...
