Can Palin wink her way into the White House?

Palin: Answer the Darn Questions!

Target:
McCain Campaign cc: Obama Campaign
During the vice-presidential debate, Alaska Governor Sarah Palin avoided responding to several questions by talking about something completely different or by simply refusing to do so.

Our country is facing difficult times. We need candidates willing to provide answers to tough questions and solutions to historic challenges.

Sign this petition demanding that Sarah Palin participates in a press conference to make her accountable to the media and the American people. She could become the next president of the United States and the least she can do is tell us where she stands on the issues we care about.

Tell Sarah Palin the American people deserve better than a vice-presidential candidate that is not willing to give straight answers (remember Cheney?). Shout outs, winks and folksy talk are not enough. We know better than that. After all, we've had eight years of lies, secrecy and deception. Get Palin to hold a press conference and prove she has nothing to hide (or does she?).

During the vice-presidential debate, I was very disappointed that Alaska Governor Sarah Palin avoided responding to several questions by talking about something completely different or by simply refusing to do so.

Our country is facing difficult times and we need candidates willing to provide answers to tough questions and solutions to historic challenges. So far, Sarah Palin hasn't been able to do that.

This is still a democracy, and as a voter, I demand that Sarah Palin participates in a press conference to make her accountable to the media and the American people, to prove she has noting to hide. Palin could become the next president of the United States and the least she can do is tell us where she stands on the issues we care about.

We deserve better than a vice-presidential candidate that is not willing to give straight answers (remember Cheney?). Shout outs, winks and folksy talk are not enough. We know better than that. After all, we've had eight years of lies, secrecy and deception.

No more scripted appearances. We need to see the real Sarah Palin now.

Govenor Palin, you are an ignorant moron and have no place in national politics. You should also be removed as the govenor of Alaska. You remind me of Adolf Hitler giving speeches spreading hate and bigotry. As far as being a devout Christian you are one of the biggest hypocrites ever. The only good you ever did in Alaska was for the big greedy oil companies. I cannot wait until you are voted out of office!

I respectfully request that you not only withdraw from the campaign for Vice President of the United States as you are unfit and unqualified. But resign your office of Govenor of the State of Alaska as you are not only unfit and unqualified but you have broken the laws of the state of Alaska. Any respectable True American would do the same as any True American lives a life of honesty and honor which you clearly do not. You are a liar, thief, law breaker, demagogue, uneducated, incompetent, slanderer, socialist and a fool. I implore you to do the right thing for once and go back to waiting on tables and cleaning house. I doubt you are very good at those things either but with practice you may rise to that level some time before retirement. That would be true service to the American People. Warmest regards, Bennett Goldberg

I don't mean to be rude, but Ms. Palin has no business running for vice-president in the first place. She has a special needs baby and 4 other kids who need her attention. Maybe if she had paid more attention to them instead of chasing fame her teenage daughter wouldn't be pregnant. I am a firm supporter of working mothers; I'm one myself...but not to the degree that your children are neglected. And just what is she teaching her kids anyway? Being evasive gets you nowhere. People want straight answers!

Why do you accuse Barack Obama using guilt by association. There are many undedirables attending conferences among good upstanding people. If you are watching a movie in a theatre, does that make you an accomplise to a maniac or killer that happens to be watching the same movie in the same theatre ? Your smearing analogy is pethetic and sick.

Gov. Palin: You and Sen.McCain continue to say, "We have a Plan!" Why not tell what the "Plan" is now, and explain it so we can understand that "it is a good Plan"?

Governor Palin, you are hurting the cause for those of us women who are working to become leaders in our communities, businesses, and government by not behaving professionally. Please start answering questions responsibly, and show knowledge of the situations that any candidate for Vice President should have. Thank you in advance for doing this.

I want to know how she can compare running the city of Wasilla, pop. 6,000, with running the country of millions that don't react with cutesy smiles, winks, or "Ramp it up's". This is just too stupid and McCain shows his senility by allowing her to be his partner. This is especially due to her recent comment re: the Pain/McCain campaign. I heard her say it, did You?

She should at least respect her audience's intelligence by giving coherent, relevant answers not memorised ones.That she talk about the major problem (financial) facing the US today and stop the mudslinging against Obama. That she realises the responsibility of her position before it gets really evident (if it's not too late already) that she's totally unsuitable for the job and admits that her influence on Alaskan ecology is a disaster.

We need your input on the economic mess, the healthcare mess, the war mess, and a lot of other things. Please stop dodging the questions, and ANSWER THEM. There is a possibility you could become President, and we are entitled to press you for this information.

No candidate for national office has so completely shut out press access as this 20-month governor of Alaska. The American people require the proper vetting that only national media access can provide for Sarah Palin. To do otherwise would be to imitate the democracies-in-name-only that we all find anathema.
