Sarah Palin is stoking up the anger against "voter fraud"
She just raised the issue at a rally in Pennsylvania and told folks they were angry about the vote fraud in their state. Did anyone else hear that there are allegations of voter fraud in Pennsylvania?


She just made that shit up, didnt she?

1. Unfortunately, no she did not
I read a story online this morning setting out voter fraud in PA. Can't remember the link now because I read too darned much in the morning. I would google PA election fraud for some recent stories.

3. sarah palin is a lying pile of steaming moose shit.
"mccain-palin is the only national ticket where "both candidates
were found to have violated ethics standards before a national election."



"A HISTORIC TICKET.... Now that Sarah Palin has been found to have abused her powers, violated state ethics, and lied about it, I did a little digging and found an interesting historical footnote.

The McCain/Palin ticket is the first in American history in which both candidates were found to have violated ethics standards before a national election.

McCain, of course, was admonished by Senate Ethics Committee "for exercising 'poor judgment' for intervening" with federal regulators on behalf of Charles Keating, as part of the infamous Keating Five scandal.

And now McCain's running mate has also been found to have violated state ethics laws and abused the powers of her office, as part of the "Troopergate" scandal.

The nation has had 102 major-party tickets covering 51 presidential elections over more than two centuries. And we've never had a ticket in which both candidates on the same ticket were responsible for ethics violations before a national election. McCain/Palin is the first.

It makes the whole "reform" pitch a little more difficult, doesn't it?"

9. I think it is because Obama played the bone-grinding-poverty card.
He has unfairly identified issues that are somehow "important" to "voters." Now he is exploiting that information to parade a series of "reasonable solutions" in front of the public. Plus he has cunningly avoided missteps McCain has made by not looking "batshit insane." So, basically, Obama's shameless pandering to the "rational" voter is what has caused his insumountable lead. :sarcasm:

11. I can't post what I'd like to say about Sarah Palin.
I'd probably get banned.

8. Has Sarah Payola explained the free house-building services she received?
in exchange for giving a Wasilla contractor the contract to build the sports complex in her town?
