Wasilla was $20 million in debt and the meth capital of Alaska at the end of her tenure
Is this an indication of her "executive experience"?

1. Did that have anyting to do with that sports arena or bridge to nowhere?
Or how about her 'abstinence only' education? How's that working out? And BTW, what world leader has she talked to, where's she been, and lots more than being a hockey mom. Fess up! This is wild! Or scary.

3. The 20 Million Dollar Debt Appears to be True
From what I have read on news sites in Alaska, that 20 million debt story seems to be factual and no one in Alaska is denying it. They stated that the debt amounted to approximately $3000.00 per resident of Wasilla. Some accomplishment huh? J. H. Keerist the hypocrisy of those people is just amazing. This woman doesn't have a clue about handling a budget or anything else for that matter. Reading further into the websites up there it clear that she is and has been in the pockets of RNP for quite awhile. She's as corrupt as they come.

7. Can You Imagine Screwing Up That Bad in a Hick Town?
The town that I live in here in Maine is the same size as Wasilla. Wasilla claims on their own website a population of around 7,025 (according to a 2008 census). My town is a rinky dink little place with hardly anything in it at all, the proverbial one horse town, if you will (it's nice, but it's no large community like the repugs and MSM would have you believe Wasilla is) For crying out loud how on earth can anyone possibly compare her life's experience to someone like Barack Obama and even begin to make the claims that they do. Morans, all of them. And I will tell you this, If she left us with that much debt, we would hunt her down and tar and feather her in a heartbeat and run her out of town. What the hell did this idiot (translation: crook) do with the money? I would have investigated her back then for wrongdoing and they should have. Apparently they are apathetic when it comes to local government. Sad that she is being bolstered up to be this wonderful person when she is just another corrupt hick tool of the RNP.

4. Very scary.
The GOP is exulting in the fact that Dems are so scared of Palin. But the reason we're scared is because she's a dangerously incompentent cipher and fundamentalist loony.
