Stop the Palin Panic

Many people are worried about Palin -- is she the Republican magic-bullet for McCain? Is she just what the disappointed Clinton supporters needed to defect to the Republican side? She could not be further from Clinton.

1. She is a lifetime NRA member.

2. She opposes abortion even for rape and incest cases.

3. She opposes gay marriage.

4. She supported Pat Buchanan's bid for the presidency while she was mayor of Wasilia, Alaska.

5. She has only been governor for 1.5 years.

6. According to Wikipedia "In May 2008, Palin objected to the decision of Dirk Kempthorne, the Republican United States Secretary of the Interior, to list polar bears as an endangered species. She filed a lawsuit to stop the listing amid fears that it would hurt oil and gas development in the bears' habitat off Alaska's northern and northwestern coasts. She said the move to list the bears was premature and was not the appropriate management tool for their welfare"

7. When interviewed by newsmax.com:
What is your take on global warming and how is it affecting our country?

A changing environment will affect Alaska more than any other state, because of our location. I'm not one though who would attribute it to being man-made.

OK.....the politicians must think so little of us women to make the assumption that just because I am a woman I will vote for ANY woman who happens to be on the ballet.
Personally, I feel that choosing Palin was a very "low" stunt.

How sad...she seems to be wearing "blinders" on several counts...

God help this country, as we face these upcoming elections...
