With Sarah Palin this country will become more divided than it already is. The culture

wars have been ignited like never before as they are not and do not want to deal with the issues.

Our troops are serving a task from God.

Her and the republicans attack on community organizers. That is basically an attack on the poor and poor communities and the people working within those communities.

Their attack on Roe vs Wade because that is their intent.

Our only hope for unification of this country and for the middle class and the poor is Barack Obama.

1. Republicans were dishing up really hateful ugly tired old jokes. McNasty.

3. If her extreme views are gotten out there

It will actually unite the 80% who think people like her are nuts. The problem is that I don't know that the Dem establishment understands that not even most of rural America agree with her.

5. An Obama victory may fracture the Republican party.

At some point the, non-religuous, fiscal conservatives are going to get sick of the backwoods religuious nuts running things for their party.

6. You are right and I am looking forward to the republicans getting their party back so there

can actually be real debates on reall issues of the times instead of the divisive cultural wars that has brought our nation and us people to where we are now. These far right religious zealots will be defeated in time. Also, I cannot believe the people really want more of the 8 years we have had with them.

7. Apparently that's how Palin got elected mayor of Wasilla.

She brought wedge politics to the town for the first time. It got her elected but they ended up hating her.

8. she's reignited the culture wars

and completely taken the focus off the real winnning issues

the economy and saving the planet from doom....all out war and environmental destruction

9. "She spoke to me as a mother." I saw that.

Is there an easier target on earth than the average American white person when being bamboozled by one of their own?
