    Sarah Palin was the mayor of a tiny, remote, town of 6000 for six years and a governor for 18 months before suffering her first large setback. It's a big stretch to compare the stature of the two politicans.

    If anything, the political resume of Nixon looks a lot like that of Al Gore minus 40 years. It was one of the reasons why I was surprised that Gore didn't run this year.
    i don't see a direct comparison of Palin to Nixon in the article.

    Sarah Palin should stick to her governorship and just hit the rubber-chicken circuit, as Richard Nixon did in his long haul back from political limbo following his California gubernatorial defeat in 1962.
    to me that statement simple says she should follow a similar strategy following a political defeat.

    George W. Bush is a liar and a murderer and belongs in prison!
    maybe he can share a cell with the U.S. president who is said by Egyptian scholar Sheikh Yousef Al-Qaradhawi to be responsible for twice as many Iraqi deaths as GWB.

    In a fatwa published on the eve of the U.S. elections, Sheikh Yousef Al-Qaradhawi expressed his preference for Sen. John McCain as president: "Personally, I would prefer for the Republican candidate, [John] McCain, to be elected. This is because I prefer the obvious enemy who does not hypocritically [conceal] his hostility toward you... to the enemy who wears a mask [of friendliness]."

    Al-Qaradhawi added: "Whoever thinks that the Democrats are less hostile to [the Arabs] than the Republicans should know that the number of Iraqis killed during the siege [of Iraq] by the Democrat Bill Clinton is twice as high as the number of [Iraqis] killed by the Republican [George] Bush.

    "The Democrats kill you slowly without you noticing it - and therein lies the danger. They are like a snake whose touch is not felt until its poison enters your body.
    then again, according to the U.S. secretary of state in 1996...it was worth it

    Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said that Clinton's policy that may have resulted in 500,000 dead Iraqi children was worth it.
    In a much forgotten exchange between Lesley Stahl and Madeleine Albright on "60 Minutes" back on May 12, 1996:

    Lesley Stahl on U.S. sanctions against Iraq: We have heard that a half million children have died. I mean, that's more children than died in Hiroshima. And, you know, is the price worth it?

    Secretary of State Madeleine Albright: I think this is a very hard choice, but the price--we think the price is worth it.
    here is the story at Gateway Pundit, including the video of the 1996 60 minutes interview.

    funny, i don't recall people writing books about Bill Clinton the child killer, or Hollywood lightweights saying that he should be in "fucking prison".

    talk about hypocrisy

    Why is Sarah Palin's past record consistently dragged up but Obama's glossed over. Would it be better if she consorted with gangsters, terrorists, dodgy arms salesman and Saddam supporters?

    Let's see her win re-election in Alaska first. Life won't be so peachy up there if the price of oil keeps dropping and all of the citizens can't get their $1500 Marxist payment of redistributed state-controlled oil income.

    I like black pugs and I cannot lie...
