I can't stand listening to that broad open her yap!! She is absurdly inartculate, and an embarrasment to any party she would people to. I am 'independent' and SHE was definitely the reason the Reblican's didn't win. Stupid McCain thought getting a 'female' was all he needed to do. Big different between Hillary and Palen!! One has brains and one doesn't. She DOES NOT represent middle class America and I take offense to her generally speaking.
If I had to be subjected to listening to this woman speak, I'd be turning on commericals.

Now, now, boys and girls. Let's play nice and give "Sister" Sarah a 'fair' chance at LOOSING the election of 2012 BEFORE the 'ACTUAL' vote casting STARTS, PLEASE ! ! ! ! !

I have yet to see a title of the state of Alaska in her name. If she can produce one then I will believe it, if not Alaska belongs to the good people of Alaska and not Sarah Palen. Congratulations to the current senator for her win and for standing up and winning on a write-in ballot which is an extremely hard
thing to do. According to the news the tea party candidate has asked a federal judge to look into the matter which is his right to do so. When someone is beat by that many write-in votes you would think that he would let it be and try again the next election. May God bless the current senator for her win !!
Sarah Palen and many of the tea party candidates are constantly talking about the constitution. They claim they want to go back to the constitution but I serioulsy doubt that some of the candidates know much about it. Why doesn`t someone challenge Palen or other Tea Party candidates that talk about
the constitution in all of their speeches ?? It would be interesting how much they really know. The answer would be "check my website." Bob/Texas

Seems to me it was a vote for Murkowski's political philosophy and a rejection of Joe Miller's. It's a tribute to grass roots campaigning - and I assume some platform alterations since the primary election.
I did not see Palin's name on the ballot either, but I don't live in Alaska.

No one could be worse than the socialist, America-hating president we have now.
Murkowski was defeated by Miller in the primary. Let's no forget that.
SARAH IN 2012!!!!

Sadly....those Americans even considering Sarah Quitter Palin are patheticly not very bright people.
Palin is a lucky bigmouth that has further decomposed the GOP's chances of credibility!
Sarah would be happy to drill for oil in the ANWR........because she is an ignorant BIG OIL WHORE !
