Give It A Rest Already Sara....

Okay, so Gov.Palin got knocked down in the 2008 fight for the White House. Well, she has since got up, dusted off her old clothing, and tossed her hat (possibly from the consignment shop that she claims is her favorite) back into the ring...I get it. I understand. I am not mad at that and never will be. But, I really wish that someone would tell her to find some new ground to cover. Can't she sit down and think of something new and fresh? Can't she focus on what positive things that she may be able to accomplish, at least until the year 2011 rolls around and she has seven children?

"[Governors make] tough decisions to best serve the people who hire us. And we are held accountable every day. The buck stops on our desk. We are not just one of many voting yea or nay or present. No. There is no present button in our office, is there? We have to make the tough decisions," said Gov. Palin, continuing to poke fun at Obama's state Senate voting record.

This topic has already been discussed time and time again! "Illinois legislators often vote 'present' and for a wide variety of reasons. Sometimes blocs of lawmakers do it as a protest in some dispute over rules and procedures. Obama was often joined in his "present" votes by 10 or 20 other senators," writes an Associated Press journalist. "In other cases, lawmakers do it to signal objections to the details of a measure that they support in principle. They also use 'present' votes as strategic moves to defeat legislation or, of course, simply to avoid taking a firm position."

Now, I can understand that some people may have some issues with voting present. However, in Obama's case "he voted 'present' 129 times. That was out of roughly 4,000 votes he cast, so those "presents" amounted to about one of every 31 votes in his legislative career,"according to the Associated Press.

So what's next Sara? Ayers tomorrow? Rev. Wrong on Saturday? I can't take it anymore...If this woman is going to be around for a while - okay - just get her some new material.
