Palin's personality reminds me of Nicole Kidman's aspiring anchorwoman in To Die For. But when I think of her term as mayor of a backwoods small town, her political approach brings to mind America's archetypal small-town mayor: Boss Hogg.

Oh backwoods people, please vote for Obama while we laugh at you. Ha, ha, ha, ha.

Please vote for our guy. Our plan to bring change to America and fix wall street is to laugh at the backwoods people. Ha, ha, hyuk hyuk.

We're so sure we're going to win VA and IN and OH and MI we can afford to laugh at people who might vote for our guy if given a good reason.

Who cares if we lose that slice of the swing voters -- they're so dumb!!
Fortunately, they don't ever realize what's on liberal blogs around the USA -- they're so dumb, they don't realize we make fun of them!!!!

Ha, ha, ha.

SusanUnPC, remember when you said Obama was too nice and we needed Hillary because she would go for the jugular? Why are you now begging everyone to go easy on the Republicans?

Is this what you'd be doing now if she'd been nominated? Whining? Stop being so meeeean!

You're a McCain supporter. Or a psychopath. Or a psychopath McCain supporter.

And she strives to be open minded. She's just not that competent.

Palin has a way to go before she's Peggy Hill. Peggy can speak Espanol.

Presumably not ad-funded.

You could call it something like "Common Ways" or "Learing Together" or "Bridging Gaps" or "Respectful Differences" or "Read This Liberal Blog Non-Liberal-Person Because it's a Good Place for You To Become More Liberal"

PC already blogs, at noquarter.net. It is indeed the most respectful, positive, solution-oriented place to go in-depth on stories about Rev. Wright, the mythical "whitey" video, and that "terrorist fist bump." It's classy. Fuckin' classy as fuck.
