Todd Purdum On Palin Quitting In Alaska: "She's Not A Politician"

[reenlist82]

Vanity fair? fucking fag what does he know

[ikkoikki]

I don't think people don't like her because she's a conservative; they just don't want her in power since she has an intellect on a par with a tin of tuna.

[Acordaro90]

When will the leave this poor woman alone, face it they all hate her just because shes conservative. Liberals can't win a direct argument so they just trash the other side's people into irrelevance.

[MoDans]

What color is the sky in your world?

[DanMonDab]

@Acordaro90 I think its funny how all these really "smart" and "elite" liberals still don't know you can see Russia from Alaska. They still trust SNL for their facts.

[FeudFan76]

Scarborough is such an asshole. How has MSNBC not replaced him yet?

[stucker0]

oh blah blah poor palin, blame blame blame, i'm the victim , blame, victim, the liberal media this, that..

give me a break, all this woman want is ATTENTION and she doesn't care who she has to sell out to get there (ie her kids)

[ChurchillTea]

but can't you see that it's the same thing with Pres. Obama....blame, blame, blame someone else for the bad economy...Yes, the economy was bad, but now where are we?....and we're all talking about Sarah Palin.

[stucker0]

well lets see i guess the difference is that Obama is right and palin is wrong.

[ChurchillTea]

i did not mean to offend.I'm sorry.

[stucker0]

lol, not offended! I see you're point! They all play the blame game, but you're right, its silly to be talking about palin when theres so many other important issues going on!

[averitas]

Anyone care to share who Todd Purdum's wife is?

[jrbkett]

Don't know.  Relevance?

[Cueil]

foolish people... sometimes it is best to hand the baton over to someone else.... no one gives up power without a strong reason... it's sad to see someone who is a Woman first and a polition second decide to step back and turn in a new direction... I just hope that she can forge something meaningful for herself and for others in the future

[lukatme2]

Palin makes me miss Octo mom

[whataboutoddd]

Good for Palin and America. She's quiting when there's fire in the kitchen.

Her heart is in the right place(*family) but she just wasnt a "politician".

It's interesting to point out that Ms. Palin is an aquarius. Now, i have many aquarius friends and i'm not a hard core follower of astrology, but it baffles me how accurate she fits an aquarius description.

I don't mean quiter, somehow "aloof" and not "excited" about topics that don't interest her(*federal politics)

All the best.

[horizons777]

righto..she is not a politician...she is a mother first. When the left wing morons begin attacking the children (even special needs baby) than I guess I would have done the same thing to help keep the family intact. The old unwritten rules of leaving the children off limits only apply to the left. These are the same peolple that cheer Al Sharpton's comment about "nothing strange about Michael Jackson" yet see something very strange about her life.

[thaliacole]

You obviously have a short memory. Chelsea Clinton was attacked in the most vicious way, including that infamous joke about her made by.... John McCain!! Nobody is interested in attacking her children... however when you present yourself as some kind of perfect "mom" with family values and your seventeen daughter gets knocked up by a self confessed "redneck" and then seems to get forced into a very convenient engagement... well, questions need to be asked.

[averitas]

That's funny, cause where I live teens get pregnant... only some abort them and act like it didn't happen. She stuck by her like she was supposed to, her daughter now takes care of her responsibility... unlike the bitter, selfish, lonely, baby killing women who tore one of their own down, even as Hillary got torn down. Where are the feminists? The same place they are when women get hanged or shot in Iran, silent. They're jealous because she had a gig, a man, kids and did it all, they didn't.

[verstwo2]

uh, who attacked her baby? Remember Bush attacking McCain's adopted daughter? Name me a politician who attacked her children...just one. She is the one who used her children to score political points. If she's not a politician what was she doing running for VP? No one forced her to enter the political spot light, she put herself there. Who gets attacked 100x more then Palin...Obama. Yet he doesn't complain and he certainly doesn't quit. How would have she handled VP...she would have quit.

[averitas]

Show me attacks on Obama's kids.

Exactly.

BTW did you forget Obama re: quitting?

Was he serving IL while stumping for two years, missing most of the hill and showing up late when he did get there?

Not one meeting/action when they gave him the subcommittee on NATO which includes Afghanistan... at a time when supply routes and trucks were blown to hell daily and NATO screamed for more troops and help.

And trust me, he was no prize on the southside before either...

[thaliacole]

People are attacking Malia at the moment for wearing a peace sign on a t-shirt.

[chevon1920]

Who attacked her baby? Why do people keep saying this, I have heard nothing of the like.

[ChurchillTea]

See "Beckel on Palin" youtube...I didn't hear about it either.

[smilz32]

thank god for my man dan for giving that segment a dose of reality.

She is a quitter plain and simple.
