Are you *kidding*?! Ask any Liberal who posts here:
we were *counting* on the Palin/Bachmann Ticket in
2012 in order to get 90% of the Vote!

Now we just have puir Ward Cleaver - er, I mean, Mitt

possibly sad Mike Huckleberry and his catalogue of
oh-so-funny Assassination Jokes...

There is a lot of speculation that she quit to concentrate on the 2012
presidential race.

I agree, but it seems to be a strange decision. She'll come across
as a quitter....or is Alaska's economy about to go down the tubes and
she's bailing? I can see deciding not to run for reelection, but I
don't see how an extra 6 months in office would hurt her chances....I
mean if she sucks as governor, it's going to come out either way.

That's a funny way to prepare, innit? By blowing
all hope of being nominated out of the water?

Maybe the GOP powers-that-be encouraged her to do this so she'd
self-destruct? Like I said elsewhere, it makes no sense to me if she
is planning on running in 2012.

How doesn't quitting one's job in midstream
facilitate that? Seems to me it's a counter-
productive move indicating that she's unable
to go the distance...not exactly the sort of
quality one looks for in a leader, regardless
of political party.

(The business about not wanting to be a lame
duck strikes me as being so much codswallop...
especially coming from someone who's such a
political hot potato.)

I think that Obama not picking Clinton was seen as a possible
avenue to more women's votes. Also, McCain never really excited many
conservatives, so picking someone farther right was needed.

If picking Palin could've brought in more middle-of-the-road women
and energized conservatives......well, it didn't work.

Or, maybe John just liked her breasts?

a small crack he tried to exploit.

There was concern that McCain would turn off enough
conservatives that they'd stay home. If the race had been close, that
might've cost a swing state or two.

It's curious, from a female perspective.

When you guys, as in you, PP, and (especially) PP's buddy F*** get into
flame wars and such, you more often than not refer to each other's
genitalia. Why is that? Is that a throwback to the young boy days of

My theory yesterday - and now I see, that of some
Political Professionals as of today - is that she was
contacted by some GOP Insiders who told her that
she was persona-non-grata after the revelations of
her e-mails to/from Steve Schmidt. Remember, the
McCain camp had sent beaucoup Damage Control
consultants up to Alaska when the first scandals
began to emerge just after they picked her. It's my
guess that they found some serious Dirt on her and
are fed up with her blaming them and spewing off
as she has done since the Election.

The GOP would rather have her Lt. Governor as an
Incumbent for a year-and-a-half than her. They feel
that keeping her on would strengthen the likelihood
of a Democratic Victory in the gubernatorial race.
So they approached her and made her an offer she
couldn't refuse - possibly with a Kiss Of Death...

Anyway, that's my theory; either that, or she's about
to be indicted and thinks she can deflect it by leaving.

Which reminds me .. tonight I have been studying one of Pablo Neruda's more
intriguing (to moi) poems ... Is there a Scottish counterpart, I wonder ...

Walking Around
- Pablo Neruda

It happens that I am tired of being a man.
It happens that I go into the tailor's shops and the movies
all shriveled up, impenetrable, like a felt swan
navigating on a water of origin and ash.

The smell of barber shops makes me sob out loud.
I want nothing but the repose either of stones or of wool,
I want to see no more establishments, no more gardens,
nor merchandise, nor glasses, nor elevators.

It happens that I am tired of my feet and my nails
and my hair and my shadow.
It happens that I am tired of being a man.

Just the same it would be delicious
to scare a notary with a cut lily
or knock a nun stone dead with one blow of an ear.
It would be beautiful
to go through the streets with a green knife
shouting until I died of cold.

I do not want to go on being a root in the dark,
hesitating, stretched out, shivering with dreams,
downwards, in the wet tripe of the earth,
soaking it up and thinking, eating every day.

I do not want to be the inheritor of so many misfortunes.
I do not want to continue as a root and as a tomb,
as a solitary tunnel, as a cellar full of corpses,
stiff with cold, dying with pain.

For this reason Monday burns like oil
at the sight of me arriving with my jail-face,
and it howls in passing like a wounded wheel,
and its footsteps towards nightfall are filled with hot blood.

And it shoves me along to certain corners, to certain damp houses,
to hospitals where the bones come out of the windows,
to certain cobblers' shops smelling of vinegar,
to streets horrendous as crevices.

There are birds the colour of sulphur, and horrible intestines
hanging from the doors of the houses which I hate,
there are forgotten sets of teeth in a coffee-pot,
there are mirrors
which should have wept with shame and horror,
there are umbrellas all over the place, and poisons, and navels.

I stride along with calm, with eyes, with shoes,
with fury, with forgetfulness,
I pass, I cross offices and stores full of orthopedic appliances,
and courtyards hung with clothes on wires,
underpants, towels and shirts which weep
slow dirty tears.

Pablo Neruda

[translated by W.S. Merwin]

As much as he fantasizes this is all about HIM, this has nothing to do with
F***. I like Conway, and he and I have bantered, agreed, and disagreed
respectfully with each other for ages. What I would suggest to him is that
he not "feed the tiger" - i.e. take pokes at you, PP - if it bothers him to
be reciprocated in kind. In fact, he should killfile you instead of reading
your responses.

And, btw, I do not understand why you are particularly vile to Conway who is
even by Adam's standards, one of the kindest gentlest souls in this group.

<WTF!?!?!>

Obviously, your First Read of them has caused somewhat
of a Traumatic Block within your mind; I suggest that you
re-read all of Conway's posts for the past four months. (Or,
if you're *really* resolute, go for the past 15 years or so, in
which you can read his stirring defence of Right Wing Death
Squads in El Salvador, Honduras, and Nicaragua...)

Well, when I pointed out to him that his idol
Ronald Raygun had sponsored the bloody
slaughter of up to *several hundred thousand*
_children under the age of 12_ in El Salvador,
Nicaragua, and Honduras, according to such
groups as Amnesty International, Save The

he pooh-poohed it and continued to stick up
for the machete-wielding, US M16-firing, US

So was Dr. Mengele, after he retired to Brazil. So what?

Adolph Hitler loved children and dogs, and used to
wax poetic over the virtues of Homebaked Bread.
He was a decorated hero of World War I and liked
to paint landscapes. Again: so what?

Mother Theresa kept company with Lepers and
Sister Prejean kept company with convicted Mass
Murderers. Senator Patrick Leahy kept company
with Vice President Dick Cheney after the latter
told the former to "Go Fuck Yourself" on the Senate
floor. Paul McCartney kept company with Heather
Mills, Barack Obama *still* keeps company with
Hillary "Sniper Fire" Clinton, and a perfectly innocent
chimpanzee kept company for years with Michael
"Jesus Juice" Jackson. Again, I fail to see the point.

You can deny it all you like, Liar. There are
people who were 'here' then who remember it.
As for Nilita, she can apply Occam's Razor to
determine if it's likely that I'd just _Make Up_
such a Specific and Detailed accusation, or
more likely that you'd deny the reality of it...
Frankly, I don't give a deep-ried rat-turd either
way, since I've had your number for so very long.
