Comments on: NBC/WSJ Poll: Palin Biggest Problem For McCain http://donklephant.com/2008/10/21/nbcwsj-poll-palin-biggest-problem-for-mccain/ Big Teeth. Huge Ass. Surprisingly Reasonable.

Sarah palin thankfully never came into power with McCain in 2008 otherwise goodness knows what the state of the US policies would be. Palin's past records suggest she is not suited to politics at all, and being the Alaska governor is in itself a huge achievement on her part. The public cannot trust her, especially with her track record. It's a shame as I did once think she may have brought new ideas to the republican agenda, but my thoughts were just far fetched.

It seems to me that this is a simple issue of complacency; so many politicians appear to take their position for granted once they achieve a certain level of public support. What they fail to realise is that voters expect more than an initial effort to gain their support and expect to see a continued concerted commitment from their politicians. Palin has failed to provide this and as a result has lost the trust of the public. In politics, a loss of support is something that is difficult if not impossible to come back and for this reason I don't see that she will feature significantly on the political stage in the future.

This women is out of control and she wants to critize the Dems for their spending? Wait for Nov 5th when the fingerpointing starts and McCain turns on her just like he turned on Bush this week.

Everything she does, says, acts, is dishonest. At the Biden/Palin debate she never answered the questions that were asked, only what she remembered from the *drum in sessions* the three days prior in *school camp*. She has done many things in Alaska that shall come to the fore now people dare to speak up, she looks scary (personally, I think she is very unattractive. Tina Fey is beautiful, Palin is not), loves to hunt (wolves and moose), does not mind to have her *dude* of a husband use her office and staff to help sack their former brother-in-law on completely bogus accusations, and so I could continue. Her baseless and slanderous attacks on Obama are so unladylike and have a terrible smell of racism and hatred, that she should be taken off the ticket immediately. Even the slightest chance that this woman who has no education to speak of and has a corrupt mentality (21.000 dollars spent on *travel for the kids: Alaska's taxpayers footed that bill), 150.000,on clothes from the Republican party the last few weeks, to name a few, would get into the White House, is the most frightening and destructive thought imaginable indeed.

What's worse, she has become a liability to the McCain camp. Perhaps this is why she is opening herself up to the media more readily now. But the question remains, what does she stand for? Is she qualified to be a vice president? You can answer these questions for yourself by going to the Dailysource's special section on Palin at dailysource.org/palinvideos. You'll find video footage outlining Palin and the big issues, like healthcare and the environment. Sarah Palin is losing her approval among the people.
