Is Sarah Palin a Cubbie Fan?

September 04, 2008 01:53 PM ET | James Pethokoukis | Permanent Link | Print

Jimmy P. at the RNC— The GOP ran out of time last night and never got to show its Sarah Palin video. I assume it will soon be posted at the RNC's convention website. But I just saw a clip on Fox News. In it, Todd Palin is shown wearing a Cub's hat. Might Sarah Palin be a Cub's fan as well? And if so, will she be able to handle the duties of running for veep despite the distraction of a probable Cub's playoff run?

Let's hope she's not

So far I have not a single thing in common with Sarah Palin (thank goodness!), other than being a working mother who has eaten moose meat. If she invades one of my most precious beliefs (that the Cubs are awesome), I might have to go jump off the Bridge to Nowhere.

I'm praying this can't be true.

Here is a great resource about Sarah Palin - the most comprehensive page of information on her record and policies available on the Internet ... including videos of her saying her proposed $30 billion pipeline is the “will of God,” her saying a month ago she doesn’t know what the vice-president does, and her complaining four months ago that Hillary Clinton was whining about “sexist” media coverage -

It has in-depth research, audio clips, videos, and links to hundreds of articles, including many from newspapers and TV stations in Alaska. It has rare footage, including her telling the ‘08 convention of the Alaska Independence Party, whose aim is to give Alaska a vote on seceding from the U.S., to “keep up the good work.”

The level of research is tremendous. The site’s editors and volunteers include an Emmy-award winning CNN reporter, the former operating editor of the Christian Science Monitor’s web site, the former head of NPRs News Blog and the Executive Director of the Online News Association -
