Wow, that closeup of Palin on Countdown. She looks like she was fighting back tears.
And I don't feel one hint of empathy for her.

I hope she finds herself the pariah of even the most right winger wingers.

I hope no one ever again offers her so much as the time of day.

1. Context, please, for the teeveeless. Are you sure it just wasn't a stray contact?

2. They're about to talk about her wanting to give a concession speech at the RNC and how .....
.... McCain's guys shut her up and shut her out.

8. They had Michael Musto in drag doing Palin. But the closeup was an actual shot of her at the RNC on
.... Concession Night.

She really was fighting back tears. I usually find that poignant, no matter who it is. In her case, however, I felt only my same old disgust for her.

10. Thinking of all the little people must have been very moving for her
because her boundaries suck and the last time she was in touch with reality, someone was putting a crown on her head.

15. Slight Correction...It Wasn't At The RNC
Unfortunately they let her speak at the RNC...the "hockey mom" myth was hatched there. This was on election night in Phoenix...by then Steve Schmidt had had his fill of her and her grifting family.

6. If this so called person was in tears, it was from flaking mascara.
Or maybe her meth connection was late.

4. If there's one person I'd like to see cry in public, she's probably in the top 3
Cheney is first though.

7. She is so in over her head...
Watching her cry would be weird. I'm normally a very empathetic person, but it's hard to imagine feeling anything but confusion over her.

16. with you there. you could just see how all her dreams for power went bye-bye
