Ferraro earned Bush's enmity by tangling with her husband, then Vice President George H.W. Bush, who bragged after debating the first woman named to a major party ticket that he had "kicked a little ass," a remark that probably wasn't planned but that may have helped him overcome his patrician image. The sexism backlash was a minimal price to pay in '84. Palin, of course, is the second woman to grace her party's presidential ticket as a vice presidential contender, but that's in the past, and likely not what got Bush's ire up this time.its amazing that anyone would care what Barbara Bush thinks, all you have to do it go back and research her family, good grief!

So they have joined in a battle of sabatage with their enemies, the Liberal Media to "destroy Sarah Palin".Poor Sarah who is cast by them in the role of David the Shepherd Boy against the Giant Warrior Goliath of Gath.The old addage:'The Enemy of My Enemy is my Friend". But bear in mind, that first this is about who is the 'Most Believable' to Independents like me.Partisans in the Republican & Democrat Clubs need not apply. Due to their prejudices & biases they don't really count in voting but Independents who are the 'swing votes' are microscpically watching the four Camps: 1) Camp Obama Far Left Progressive Democrat 2)Camp Hillary Far Left Progressive Democrat 3)Romney, Jeb Bush,..etc.,Progressive Moderates Establishment Republicans 4) Camp Palin Far Right Liberatarian Tea Party Republican. Personally, I'd love to see Hillary vs. Palin Presidency Fight instead of pay attention to a catty-Matriarch Blue Blood Establishment's "sour grapes" because the country doesn't want another Bush Era that wasted alot of money & ruined the American Economy (Note on Bush's Watch:Govt. Had No Fiscal Restraint,Spent More Money,Increased the Defecit & Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac, Wall Street Financial RealEstate Collapse!). If I don't get the two most powerful women in politics to be the challengers. Then, I'll settle for the two Global World's only 'Political Rock Stars' Obama & Palin.

A "patrician" background does presuppose trying to pass on traditional "family values". If Mrs. Palin is truly interested in being elected and serving as our president she should spend her time studying the issues, rather than being so disrespectful of Mrs. Bushand attempting to sway the outcome of a spurious dancing contest for her daughter. The people of Alaska do not seem to be overly impressed by her judgemnt. Miller, whom she endorsed, was beaten by a write in candidate. They know her better than we in the lower 48 do.

We and I do mean most of us do understand what problems Sarah Palin has with government and politics. She has been handled by experts who do have the expertise to provide the much needed answers she needs to know before a debate or an interview. The problem is that they don't know what's going to be asked, and we have heard the same line about country and God over and over again. I have never heard and read so much data on one person without giving any information. She's like a parrot. I really don't think Palin really does know what's going on in the world. As for her one on one interviews, she's not well versed on any subject and in over two years, she still is not prepared to run for office...................

Real Americans, real conservatives don't fit in their multi generational,country club world. Once I liked the Bushes, and they have their redeeming qualities. But to see one story where Bill Clinton is deemed a likable guy by the Bushes and Sarah Palin just doesn't fit their mold, leaves me cold!
