More Connections
Okay, I admit it. Palin, to me, is like going by a train wreck...I try so hard not to pay any attention, but being human, I just can't help it.
Ran across a disturbing connection between Palin, Monegan's replacement and the religious right...
I know this is no smoking gun and in the grand scheme of things probably isn't terribly important, but it creeped me out and I'm wondering if it concerns any of you...

I think it's pretty important, and that this is the primary reason why she was picked for the ticket. this has the potential to increase the far-right turnout above bush's. bush said he supported the fundamentalists and they still love him, but even he didn't put a radical pro-lifer on the ticket with him.
it's clear to the radical right that palin didn't pay for rape kits as mayor because she believed emergency contraception is abortion, and abortion is murder. thus the victim had to pay.
the campaign's response on troopergate just re-references this for the faithful, while it slips past most of us.
I strongly believe she wasn't picked as any sort of feminist appeal in Hillary's wake, but that that claim was a smokescreen for her truly frightening radical nature-- the real reason she's on the ticket.
