Palin Returns to Anti-GOP Roots
As the immediate past Vice Presidential nominee, it’s hardly surprising that most people outside Alaska view Sarah Palin as a card-carrying member of the GOP establishment. Despite her husband Todd’s seven year dalliance with the secessionist Alaska Independence Party, and his quiet conversion to the GOP when his wife decided to run for office, Sarah [...]
Palin Urges South Carolinians to Vote for “Egotistical Narrow-Minded Machine Goon”
Was Sarah Palin’s proclamation, “If I were in South Carolina, I’d vote for Newt” really an endorsement, or just her attempt to keep the wounded elephant that is the current presidential GOP lineup limping forward as far as possible before it collapses under the weight of its own unelectability? Correspondence from Palin seems to indicate [...]
Palin Endorses Gingrich
No, not Sarah. Todd. His wife has not decided yet “who is best able to go up against Barack Obama,” Todd Palin said. But apparently Newt has won the heart of the savvy political expert that is the snowmachine racing ex-first-dude of Alaska. One thing it does tell us is that a last-minute re-entry into [...]
Another Palin Reality Show? “The Uninteresting” Would Feature Todd Palin
Ah, yes. We’ll never forget ol’ whatsername. But, much to our delight and her chagrin, for most of America the Palin “brand” is simply yesterday’s news.

Sarah Palin and the Long, Shiny Road to Irrelevance
Sarah Palin is not running for the presidency. I’d been waiting to hear that since the day after the 2008 presidential election, which is ostensibly when she began running for the presidency. From the moment she “went rogue” on the campaign trail, calling out then-candidate Obama for “pallin’ around with terrorists,” and contemplating an unauthorized [...]
From the Cutting Room Floor of Blind Allegiance to Sarah Palin – Obsessive Perfection and Anger Mismanagement
By Ken Morris and Jeanne Devon This is the first article we will be posting on material that was ultimately cut from Frank Bailey’s memoir - Blind Allegiance to Sarah Palin.

Blind Allegiance Revisited – New Sarah Palin Bombshells from the Cutting Room Floor
In February of this year, there was a deliberate and unauthorized leak of the draft manuscript of the book Blind Allegiance to Sarah Palin (Frank Bailey with coauthors Ken Morris and Jeanne Devon).

Palin’s Remarks After Iowa Premiere (Transcript of Word Salad)
Time to get the giant Caesar-sized bowl and the double Costco bag of Crazy Croutons. Sarah Palin delivered a monstrous serving of word salad after the Iowa premiere of “The Undefeated.” It appears that the potential presidential candidate was unconcerned with having prepared remarks of any kind, and simply let all those buzz words out [...]

Palin Suspends Quitting to Attend Movie Premiere of “The Undefeated”
Sarah Palin’s One Nation bus tour has screeched to a halt. After the media reported it had been canceled, her Facebook page explained her summer plans on June 22 in a note titled: *Sigh* Reports of Tour Demise are Greatly Exaggerated The coming weeks are tight because civic duty calls (like most everyone else, even [...]
Palin’s Campaign Film “The Undefeated” Reviewed (Insert Explosion Here)
When returning to my hotel room Friday afternoon. I noticed something slipped in the crack of the door. I was attending the Netroots Nation convention at the Hilton in Minneapolis. As is their habit, the evil (and much smaller) twin of Netroots Nation, called “Right On Line” puppydogs our convention, trailing behind and choosing to [...]
Palin Emails: Todd is a “private citizen”…except when he’s not…
I have a little bit of personal experience with this Palin email thing. However, mine were so redacted, they were no fun at all. So, like many others, I’ve enjoyed making up my own searches of the awesome 2011 Palin Email Database, courtesy of MSNBC and Crivella West. The REAL fun happens when I’m searching [...]
