Poll question: Palin has lost ALL credibility today. She's now unelectable. True or not? |
|
Posted on TMZ: Palin has lost ALL credibility today. The one 'good' thing of this tragedy will be that she is now unelectable for ANY office. http://www.tmz.com/2011/01/08/sarah-palin-gabrielle-giffords-shot-congresswoman-statement/

4. I thought she was always unelectable |
|
She'll remain loved by Republicans and probably win the nomination and then get destroyed by Obama. Nothing has changed, that was true yesterday and it will be true tomorrow.

6. In a saner country, she never would have had credibility to begin with. |

In this country? Look around.

15. She's never been electable except in Alaska |
|
However, what we all fear is that she'll be cheated into office like another unelectable dry drunk half wit we all remember all to well.

17. No matter how this turns out - and let's hope the Congresswoman fully recovers - Palin is now in |
|
George Wallace status, politically.
After the horrific Church bombing that killed four young African-American girls while he was governor - and after some of his extremist rhetoric - there was not a chance he was ever going to be President of the United States. I would wager that this incident has done the same for Palin's political future.

I think you underestimate the stupidity of right wing morons and |
|
the ability of talk radio and Fox Noise to manipulate these fucking morons into voting for shit stains like Palin. Throw in the citizens United ruling and the continued consolidation of media in this country it is very much still within the realm of possibility for this fucking p.o.s to be elected. Be afraid, be very afraid

23. If there can be anything taken away from this tragedy |
|
it has to be that people might start to realize that the tea party don't want anything but hate and violence in this country.

People here might not be happy if this guy turns out just to be a nutjob who is neither left nor right.
He might just be crazy.

29. She never was electable, her only use was to |
|
Split the GOP. she would lose the GOP the nomination and run as a 3rd party tea party candidate.
The GOP vote would be split and Obama could phone it in

Seriously, TMZ. They get what, a bazillion hits each day by every side of the political spectrum. If TMZ is helping it stick, I think it will stick.

I hope she goes broke in a vain and futile effort to repair her image.
