Palin - Personal and Political, Pathetically Un-Professional

By Lance Winslow
The opposition party completely trashed Sarah-"Barracuda"-Palin, Vice Presidential Candidate during the 2008 elections. This is rather unfortunate because she has really done a nice job in Alaska for her constituency. That's politics as they say, but how unfortunate that the media blew stuff so far out of proportion, turning rumors and innuendos into urban myths.

Sarah-Palin was not even the Vice Presidential nominee for the Republican Party for 3-days before the mass media, spurred on by her political opponents were in Alaska digging up dirt out of anything they could find. It was a huge case of vicious attack games and it was truly disgusting to watch anyone do such a thing. These negative campaigning tricks went on throughout the election.
Even after the election, the opposing political operatives began spreading rumors to destroy Sarah-Palin's credibility and personal character. Why? So, she would not run for higher office again of course. The rumors that were posted on blogs actually made it into the mainstream media.

One story proclaimed that Sarah Palin answered the door of her hotel room only dressed in a bath towel. The rumor turned out to be false even though it hit the AP. There were several other distasteful rumors reported. What did Sarah Palin say about this;

"The personal attacks were cruel and it's mean-spirited, it's immature, it's unprofessional, and those guys are jerks"

You know what? She's right, politics in our nation have sunken to an all time low. These disgusting and despicable attacks are the exact reason that so many great Americans never seek to serve at all levels of government. And for that reason, we end up with the leaders we have. These personal character attacks need to stop. Please think on this.
