Palin Fascination, Scorn Shows No Sign of Receding – FOXNews.com Transition Tracker

Still, Palin continues to attract enthusiastic supporters. The sponsors of TeamSarah.org, a pro-Palin Web site hacked by Palin foes, say the Alaska governor stirs fear and loathing on the left chiefly because of her challenge to the established order.

The fascination for Palin is like rubber necking a truck-moose collision. Nobody really cares about the moose. The driver and the truck are the important things.  Palin is the driver, and as usual she is refusing to be held accountable for the wreck, saying the moose just jumped out of nowhere. She thought she had passed the moose and they were behind her. Regardless, the truck (Alaska) took a real beating and it may be awhile before it can be back on the right road (2010).  What happened to the moose you ask?  Well ,the people of Alaska are a resilient bunch, we’ll survive. Even a drunk with power driver, trying to run us down, practically destroying the truck in the process, won’t keep Alaskans down.  We have a bright future in spite of Palin’s best efforts.

I don’t believe anyone fears Palin, but she has done and said some loathsome things.  Even so, the criticisms of Palin are completely justified.  She keeps putting herself out there, giving interviews, saying really stupid things.  She seems to love the attention, even if it’s negative attention.

Established order?  The established order has been idiots.  She is the epitome of politics as usual.  She’s not the reformer she likes to pretend.  She isn’t open and honest, nor is her administration transparent as she promised.  Trying to hold her accountable is like filleting a Halibut with a butter knife, with enough time and effort, almost anything is possible.

So here’s a wink and a nod towards Queen P, in the hopes that her accidental election doesn’t total the truck and the moose will be able to walk away with minimal scarring.

Oh and TeamSarah.org, bite me.  She is my Governor.  Few of you mindless drones have ever even visited Alaska, never mind stayed a winter.

    Please have a look at
    As Sarah Palin whines the Alaska village of Emmonak is dying right before our eyes.

    “I became interested in Sarah Palin for her entertainment value, following the soap opera “Who's Trig's Mother?”.

    I considered her dangerous and shuddered at the thought of having her in the White House, perhaps as president, if anything happened to McCain. Thankfully, they lost.

    I'm not American and don't live in America, but as the soap rolled on, I started following links to various Alaskan blogs.

    She's not so entertaining anymore. What I read so far is truly appalling. She sent a confidential wish list to Washington, but Begich let the cat out of the bag: she didn't ask for enough and what she asked for was linked to the gas pipeline. So she's trying to come across as a fiscal conservative to further her own agenda in pursuit of national office at the expense on Alaskan communities.

    Perhaps all the whining about the media and anonymous bloggers is a smokescreen to distract people so her real shortcomings as a governor go unnoticed. But I don't think any amount of whining and hogging the media's attention is going to impress anybody in the communities facing so much hardship. I suppose they're not important to her. Can she be elected for anything without their votes? If she can, that would explain her utter contempt for their plight.

    Is there anybody else in Alaska with enough clout to address this problem? I understand the Governor has a lot of power, being the only elected executive in the State government, then she appoints at will. Is that correct? If it is, what can Alaskans do to get rid of this callous, selfish, unspeakable woman?

    When similar emergencies happen in Africa or in the Indian sub-continent, there are international appeals for aid. But the international community wouldn't expect to contribute to an appeal from one of the states of the richest, most powerful country in the world. They would expect the government of that state to provide for their constituents or at least for the federal government to intervene. This woman has no shame. She'll gadly allow the people of Alaska to exist bellow the acceptable human dignity level, driven to suicide, simply to feed her vanity and ambition.

    I hope you can find a solution for this millstone around your necks.

    How can I forward this to Barack Obama? Somebody has to do something! You shouldn't have to resort to appeals in blogs for donations to help Alaskan communities.”

    I wonder have Palin every heard of the statement; that no one can tell if you’re a fool until you open your mouth. Every time she opens her mouth to cry wolf, she sound like some whining princess that didn’t get her way. Palin supporter/followers are not helping her by letting her continue to go on and on about nothing. Instead of her supporter telling everyone to back off, calling us lair, and saying we’re evil; try putting down some real facts about what is have done since being in office. I don’t mean that crap she hold an executive office; hell every officers in the military including NCO’s have had or have that title.

    Please Palin supporter stay away from the “everyone just loves her”. Everyone doesn’t just love her, just say you love her. Hmmmmm maybe Palin is trying to boost her multi-million dollar book deal. I’m not surprise O’Reilly have been using FOX to sell his books for years; why should Palin use the media to push the sell s of her book before it comes out.
