Sarah is exactly who she's always been even in Alaska. She used her beauty and sex to more up to be Govenor. Notice how quickly she pushed herself as President and even started shopping on the RNC's money. Sarah deals with life and men as a Beauty Contestant and it's worked well. But on the big stage things will change for Sarah Boop and she'll learn there is no such thing as a free ride. Republicans will learn this will be in the history books as the first Republican VP candidate who only used her looks, sex, flirting, lying, causing chaos at rallies and even pushing herself pass the Presidential candidate for his job. By her stupid actions watch how even Republican woman react on voting day. She is the joke to World leaders and to America but to stupid and greedy to know it.

Although the fact that more Republicans are finding the courage to state the obvious instead of parroting the party line tells us much about how the iron grip the GOP had all their minions in is now loosening. And Palin? She needs a good reality check, and soon. The stories that we hear about her being some sort of GOP force to reckon with in the future, or about her own personal plans of grandeur in 2012 speak of a woman who is starting to believe the GOP press releases about her. She may get the ultra-evangelical vote sewn up, but that won't be enough to carry the party. Those of us who believe that we need some sort of government plan other than raping the earth and waiting for the Rapture are greater in number. Hagel, like Colin Powell, merely states the obvious.
