    He did say 'voters.' And he's right. If she has such strong views or some proud ideology, she should be chomping at the bit to be heard.

    F all of y'all.

    From now on I'm only responding to those who defend their candidate and screw those who only bash the opposition.

    So you're saying 'screw you' to yourself. Got it.

    Can't help but be amused at how worked up you're getting. I mean, really? Is it worth it?

    It's my low tolerance for stupidity that's acting up again. You libs are much more tolerable in the Den.

    Well, that's a you problem. And for the 1000th time, 'liberal' does not mean someone who disagrees with SabanFan. But suit yourself, I know you feel like you have to label everyone. But you would love my views on capital punishment.

    And speaking of someone being on their high-horse...If we're all so stupid then it shouldn't be so difficult for you to tell us why. I think maybe you're frustrated because there's no legitimate way to defend Palin here.

    I don't know enough about Palin to defend her. She's the Veep choice and I'll learn what I can before the election, though I like what I've seen so far. The incessant bashing by people who don't know anything about her is frustrating because it's done out of pure ignorance. I didn't know squat about Obama a couple of years ago but I wasn't bashing him. Now that he's shown who he is and what he might stand for (can't tell for sure except the Robin Hood part)I will speak up against him.

    That's pretty much the whole point of the thread. People are angry because she won't speak up, thus subjecting herself to scrutiny or defense. All that we have to go on right now is her past, which seemingly gets less and less favorable by the day.

    I'm actually surprised that you're not more upset about her silence. It seems like a pretty chickensh!t thing for her to do, and I know you don't tolerate that.

    As I recall, Obama first called for a Lincoln/Douglas type "debate" which had them each giving a talk. Not even any questions.

    I think it's her handlers that are telling her to zip it. She would probably like to express an opinion.

    OK, no more Red Bulls for you! Rage is a poor argument.
