    I was really interested in what these bright young women had to say about Sarah Palin as Mayor of Wasilla and Governor of Alaska. When you hear all the media comments about her role as Governor, it is easy to disregard their opinions. Many times, the media can’t wait to smear the candidates. But these astute opinions come from people who live actually there!

    How horrifying to hear how she ruined the quaint town of Wasilla! What is up with cutting down forests to build a parking lot and a WalMart? YIKES!

    I agree that she is ill-prepared, and I also find myself feeling sorry for her! At this point, she is merely a pawn in the hands of mean-spirited and dangerous campaign managers.

    I can only hope that we hear from our young people! This election will determine their future. Good for you gals.

    Good comment.

    Although I do not feel sorry for Palin. It’s her choice to allow herself to be used, as you say. And it’s her choice to spew the fear and hate-mongering.

    She has no room to talk about others’ ethics.

    I don’t know about you guys, but I thought I was scared of Palin being VP before I saw this video, but these two make Palin seem even scarier.
    They hit the nail on the head, Palin is basically a prop that doesn’t know what shes talking about. McCain made a huge mistake.

    Yes – I always thought she was inadequate and scary but this insider vantage point took me to new levels of disbelief and befuddlement! Very insightful.

    Good video find. After listening to these girls speak about Palin, I’m feeling more disturbed about her possibly being one 72 year old heartbeat away from the Presidency and the nuke button.

    And what she did to Wasilla reminds me of the old Joni Mitchell song, “Take paradise and put up a parking lot”. No wonder Wasilla was in debt by the time she left the mayoral office.

    Looks like the Sarah Palin is going to get the old Philly welcome tonight at the Flyers game. Keystone Progress is prepared…

    I know the person that manages Keystone Progress and he is very politically active. Can’t wait to watch the Sports at 11:00 tonight. I’m sure there will be local coverage.

    GREAT video Bruce – every voter should see this; including McCain. These two young ladies have ‘insider information’ and are fully aware of and were able to express the Palin con better than I’ve heard before, even from journalists. I didn’t realize that she ripped out trees to put up the monstrosity called Wal-Mart! with a parking lot so huge that they don’t even have enough cars to fill it! No wonder Palin doesn’t believe that global warming is man-made!!!

    As for Philly – I hope they do us proud by giving her a really raucous ‘Philly style’ welcome.

    Palin should keep the puck of the Philly ice!

    The media should hgire these two women. In five minutes they told us more about Palin than months of research by the media.

    Great video.
