We have never heard so much talk about one state. When Bill Clinton first ran for Prez, it wasn't "Arkansas this" and "Arkansas that". :banghead:

It's particularly annoying hearing it in Palin's nasally accent.

1. When it's all you know, it's all you can talk about.

3. Tina Fey, Sarah Palin and what they have in common with Patty Duke

(a bit obscure, I know.....but for those who remember the Patty Duke show, I think you might appreciate it)

4. I think she is going to damage the tourist industry.
I think the romantic image a lot of people had of Alaska, the one promoted by cruise lines and the old tv show Northern Exposure, has been seriously damaged. Americans are getting a negative view of Alaska as a backwater state filled with corruption and religious zealots.

7. Oh I dunno ...... Idiot Son talks about Tejas a **lot**
Idiot Son has not been good for Tejas.

Were I am Alaskan, I would not be happy about her.
