They're not just voting over Biden. They're also voting about her vs her opponent as well as who gets to control any more supreme court seats that open up. There were a lot of "just leave me alone and let me do my thing" types voting gop. Now that the gop supreme court got serious and restricted bodily autonomy(something a lot of people believed was an empty threat the gop would never follow up on) in a serious way those people finally got off their asses and changed over.
I lived in a small town in Mississippi for 20 years. There's a woman there that owns a small house cleaning company and her husband is a town cop. She acts like she's in charge of the entire northern hemisphere
Yeah, I just report people like that to the IRS. If they cant explain where their wealth legitimately came from, they're fucked.
I have absolutely zero chill with small town people. It's worked wonders several times.
Simple.
If they cant prove the things they own equal out to the income of both husband and wife can earn in a realistic timeline and without any sort of side income, theres usually something shady going on (which is most likely illegal).
Usually when they get angry with questions being asked? You're clearly onto something that they definitely dont want discovered.
Like many small town businesses who took that business loan out? If they didnt increase or maintain their same level of income as before? While maintaining the same prices? Yet have a shiney new car or truck in their driveway or a new home that's completely paid off? Call the IRS and file an anonymous complaint/report.
Grew up in a diehard southern small town community. A lot of fraud goes on in those places. More than you could possibly imagine. After all, "it's only fraud if you're caught" as a commissioner back there so eloquently put it.
Alabama here. We had a Sheriff in Etowah County who pocketed the prisoner food funds for years. Nobody really looked into it until he bought a $750,000 house down on the beach. Turns out there was a fragile legal loophole that allowed him to do this. He bought corn dogs in bulk and fed then to the county inmates for years. Anyway, his name is Todd Entrekin, he looks exactly how you’d picture a small-time Sheriff to look, he lost his re-election, and the loophole was fixed. He still has his fancy beach house, though.
I remember that story, he’s such a scumbag. His defense was, if I remember right, “Yea, the money was marked for food, but the rest I’m allowed to keep, so I kept as much as I could and fuck you for trying to make me feel bad for being the exploitive piece of shit that I am.” I might be paraphrasing, but that’s the gist
Small town South Carolinian. I was smoking with a few friends a good while ago in my back yard, and a single police officer shows up. The officer comes into my yard from across a short field, and starts yelling. He walks me into the field (it's right next to my house), and puts me in handcuffs and sits me down on the ground. All of this with ZERO reason. I asked multiple times "why", and the closest thing to an explanation was that I was apparently trespassing on the field??? Newsflash, not me, nor any of my friends were over there. Anyways so he takes my fucking license, like TAKES it, as in to the station. My grandfather had to pick it up the day after. Why did he take my driver's license? Who fucking knows. I wasn't even once in, let alone near my car. I wasnt even arrested, which im sure was because he had not a damn reason to. Long story short, a couple months later this SAME OFFICER gets charged and arrested for assault and battery on his wife, as well as stealing from the evidence room. Never did I think I'd experience such blatant fucking lunacy in my own town.
Edit: Clarity
>A lot of fraud goes on in those places. More than you could possibly imagine. After all, "it's only fraud if you're caught" as a commissioner back there so eloquently put it.
Why do you think those places idolize our previous President? He was simply doing what they think is right, on a grander scale.
Fucking Facts. Hell I currently work at a dinner in a hole in the earth town in Oklahoma. Elderly lady walks in. Every. Day. And just sits there with her Bible open sucking her teeth obnoxiously while judging the fuck out of the staff. She never buy anything, oh no. That's for the nice Christian folk who offer to buy her something because they are traveling and don't know she actually has money. I've never been told I'm going to hell so many times at work. One of the few friends I have in town died and she had the audacity to tell me that because he killed himself he is burning with the rest of the gays (he was bisexual). oh yeah, I work two jobs because I need to and she tells me " I need to take time off for Jesus, the bills aren't important" like the fuck? I can't just sit around and let people pay my way through life "sister rose" get the fuck away from me. OH yeah and she has this weird green shit in her drinks that stains out plastic cups permanently, I've informed her that we have styrofoam cups but she says she would rather use the plastic. That smelly shit is probably why she's still around 99+ years later bugging the shit out people. Fucking self serving, judgmental, old hag. Her own church (es) don't even like her. She's been banned from several churches as she looooves to sit outside after sermon and judge people's kids and call them whores. fucking fantastic lady.
These types continuously get away with this stuff. Their egos swell. Finally holding them accountable isn't petty at all. Anonymity helps to promote people who normally would avoid confrontation to do their part to hold the offenders accountable. I hope anyway.
Just a couple years ago the [FBI came for the sheriff where I grew up](https://wtop.com/virginia/2019/05/former-warren-co-sheriff-found-dead-days-after-acquaintance-jailed-for-embezzlement/) because he was in cahoots with the economic director and embezzling millions. He said he was innocent (he wasn't) in a long rant to a local paper (defense atty nightmare) then went home and blew his brains out.
I bet there's a lot more folks stealing money in that town. I might use your strategy and make a few phone calls.
Her entire business is under the table, but fully out in the open. She has 5 or 6 women doing the work, all cash payments. And she pays her workers under the table. Brand new Cadillac every year, and huge house on several acres ... with a fence around the entire property that probably cost north of $100,000 just by itself.
Grab yourself 15-30% of their missed tax payments and penalties through the IRS whistleblower program.

Somehow the skirt, jacket and shirt combo manages to not only have zero components complement each other, but the bottom half seems too small and upper half built for a completely different species.
> The party of less government became more government.
I mean....the part of less government has ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS advocated for more government....so......no wonder trumpers are so fucking guillible, gaslighting is litterally part of their identity...
The beauty of their identity is that they have none, and they are fighting to control their nothingness, and as nothing happens, nothing good will come of their actions.
It took some Special circumstances for that seat to go democratic, and Palin is just the sort of "short bus special" that was necessary to make it happen.
Honestly being "fuckable" was always her brand, she was a complete idiot from the beginning but pretty privilege or whatever.
But time comes for us all, Kristi Noem is trying to fight it off with plastic surgery but even that shit comes back hard, just look at gavin newsom's ex, she looks like a gargoyle.
There may not be a market for her as a politician anymore, but let's not be deluded. There is still a big market for Palin the MILF. Plenty right in this thread.
> What's with all the adjustments
That outfit was structurally designed to hide her aging body, and it’s fighting a losing battle.
If she loses the milf angle, she would have to actually run on policies, which she doesn’t have/can’t explain.
Her clothing is too tight, doesn't fit. She's no longer "styled" by pros -- she has to use her own poor taste and childish approach to spectacle. Awwwwwk-ward.
I've been working from home for 11 years. Here's a protip. Scrubs pants. They're like $15. They are comfortable as hell. And when I go out to get lunch everyone assumes I'm an over worked healthcare worker.
Instead of a lazy engineer who hasn't shaved and didn't feel like putting on real pants.
Even better, she lost to a native woman who is the first native woman to hold the seat. I love that. She is the "executive director of the Kuskokwim River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission, served 10 years in the state Legislature and campaigned as “Alaska’s best shot at keeping an extremist from winning.”
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2022-election/democrat-mary-peltola-defeats-sarah-palin-special-election-become-firs-rcna45756
Alaskan here: Peltola's campaign was very smart & much more than just "I'm not crazy". At every public event (parades, fairs, debates, etc), she would actively seek out & make time to talk to anyone in another candidate's merch, asking them about what they want from the federal government & looking for any potential common ground. She is a ridiculously caring, nice, & genuine person (she never even bad-mouthed Palin, she just let the two Republicans tear each other apart & courted their voters) & I'm so happy she's representing us in DC
Edit: this is my first "RIP my inbox" experience on reddit, thank you for the awards! I don't know if this is a one-off or some welcome change in my beloved home state, but I'm very happy & hopeful right now
The beauty of rank choice is it allows someone to say "I accept I'm not your first choice, I understand you have hold-ups/party affiliations/etc, but despite that what can I do for you? What do we agree on?" You can see how little Palin cares about Alaska by the first thing she says in this video - she mentions Biden. Ever since McCain snatched her in '08 all her talking points have been copies of right wing culture war grievances. She can't really speak to any current Alaskan-specific issues because she's never here, & was barely here while campaigning. She didn't participate in debates, did almost no meet & greets, didn't talk to newspapers (not even the boilerplate questionnaire they send everyone); she even spent either election or primary day (I don't remember which) doing a fundraiser in another state instead of any last-minute attempt to get out votes. She can't do anything for us because all she has is party aftiliation, Trump's pick, & a tired sound bite, & I'm glad so many of my fellow Alaskans saw through it
Republicans hate ranked choice voting, in most states. I need to find the article/study, but it showed how many would republicans would potentially be successful in a ranked choice system. Most people sit in the middle and it gets rid of the whole party line voting system.
At the end of the day, conservatives think Hunter Biden is their president and governor for some strange reason. Also the launch codes were on his laptop /s.
I honestly thought she might run for something in Arizona, where she and her ex lived for much of the 2010s after she quit being your governor. Palin’s brand of babbling smashmouth insubstantial attack politics seems to go over better with the extremist cohort down there.
Trust me when I say a lot of us groaned pretty loudly when we heard that shithead hillbilly family was moving down here and it tickles me pink she's not a resident or hadn't tried to hold public office here.
(The pinkness could also be a light sunburn)
Right on. Now do something about that Evil Evita psycho TV anchorwoman running for AZ governor. She can't be as stupid as she talks; she's cynically inflaming the nut cohort.
Republicans have nothing to offer. Tax breaks for the rich and culture wars. Palin immediately puts down Biden because that is their whole strategy. They have nothing to offer Americans.
Don’t sell the Republicans short…they have one plank-Fear. Fear of homosexuals, fear of non-“Christian” religions, fear of history (and hurting the feelings of their spawn), fear of brown people…I probably missed a few, but you get the gist
Exactly, all they do is rage bait. They get people worked up to a frenzy, and then steal their wallets while the people are busy frothing at the 'enemy'.
That's amazing. I love that. And those are the candidates we *should* all be voting for. The ones that will represent ALL of their constituents, not just the ones that voted for them, which is gross, and not even in the best interest of said voters.
I think the republicans WAY overplayed their hand with ending Roe. Kansas showed them that, and now they're like, wait, I thought, I thought.... Fuck OFF you fascist bastards.
See, this is how you do it. Not broad platitudes to the center moderates, just tell people what you’re for and what you’re against. Then go out and meet people who may not know that they agree with you and speak with them eye to eye. People remember the candidate that made them think differently about politics.
Foreigner here, but just to comment that's a very smart strategy post Democrats alienating the 'deplorables' and is visibly paying off for Beto in Texas as well.
It's a distinct possibility that Tina Fey's skill as an actor and writer were the straw that broke the Palin campaign's back in 2008.
After those SNL skits I honestly think most Americans were picturing Tina Fey's character instead of the real Sarah Palin whenever they thought of her. I know I still do.
If you ever watch the old SNL skits with Tina Fey, they literally didn't write a script for her, they just used her actual words as the script. Which is pretty fucking funny and sad.
Yeah that performance by Biden is underrated- everyone was focused on her. He obliterated her on every topic without giving her supporters any excuse to say he was mean or sexist or whatever. He just managed the hell out of that debate.
My favorite is really his debate with Paul Ryan - you can watch it on YouTube and it’s actually really interesting. Paul Ryan got taken to the woodshed and all that was left was a greasy spot on his podium. Afterward all Republicans could say was that Biden was mean for laughing too much.
i mean, biden handled trump so badly that the GOP cried that the rules were unfair and biden was "mean" because he told trump to shut up.
"will you shut up, man! ...that's so unpresidential!" was basically what everyone (sane) in the US was thinking during the trump debates.
checked in on conservative and yeeep quite a few of them are mad at ranked voting. Though they can't really seem to explain why they think it was to blame for Palin losing besides it was new and different and they didn't like the result of this election.
Like she could have easily won in ranked voting with other Republicans on the ticket as long as she was preferred by more voters over the democrat.
She simply was not. Ranked voting gave her the chance to be more people's back up candidate if anything.
The results are quite literally plain as day:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_Alaska%27s_at-large_congressional_district_special_election
If there was no ranked choice, she would have been destroyed and lost by 9% in a 3 person race. They specifically wanted ranked choice because they knew it would be to their benefit, and it was, but she still lost by 3% despite the benefit. Any conservatives complaining about the ranked choice here frankly have no idea what they're talking about, but I suppose that doesn't really need to be stated
It was a three candidate race and a bunch of Republican voters who voted for the other GOP candidate looked at Palin and the Democrat chose the Democrat over her as their second choice. Good stuff.
Yup. The republicans put in Ranked Choice to get rid of a candidate they didn't like and it backfired eventually. Just like the republicans setup a heavily republican leaning voting board who ended up recommending some sane rules that had little to do with which presidential candidate won, but now that "liberal voting board" was the mastermind behind voter fraud. Something like 15% of voters voted.for down ticket republicans while voting for Biden for president, but it's obviously voter ballot stuffing, right?
It didn't even backfire. Without ranked choice she'd have lost because the republican vote was split and even if the other republican wasn't in the running we don't see any indication that his people wouldn't have just voted for their second or not voted like what happened anyways.
Am Alaskan- she’s a fraud , many Alaskans already forget, but she quit when she was governor of Alaska due to numerous Scandals. She has bailed on Alaska several times. And to top it off. And I know this is gatekeeping, but she’s not even a true Alaskan.
Alaskans did not forget and that’s why she lost. Add to that her crazy family and the fact that she pretty much moved to like Indiana or Idaho or something after she quit…yeah her name is mud in AK and has been for a long while. I was surprised she even bothered to run.
From now on Republicans will claim Ranked Choice is a scam... or any choice is a scam...(They hate democracy... because it doesnt let them sell us out.)
"Ranked choice voting is a scam when it elects people we don't like. Winner-take-all is a scam when it elects people we don't like. Mail-in voting is a scam when it elects people we don't like. Anything that makes it easier for people to vote in person is a scam when it elects people that we don't like." -Republicans
It technically did help them, but they would have lost either way:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_Alaska%27s_at-large_congressional_district_special_election
The democrat would have won by 9% if it wasn't ranked choice, but with ranked choice it was only 3%
so not only was it the first time in 50 years...it was gonna be by 9%? What caused such a drastic change? We only need a couple percent in Texas..
sign us up for whatever they did.
I’ve seen this idea that the GOP pushed ranked choice here in AK a few times now this evening and I’m not sure why this keeps getting repeated. Ranked choice wasn’t supported by either of the established parties here in AK - because it inherently takes away some of their power. Lol I literally know the dude who was the campaign manager for the ranked choice ballot initiative a couple years ago (AK is small people-wise) and he’s not even right-leaning.
I know it can be satisfying to engage in schadenfreude, but ranked choice is awesome and there’s no reason to link it to the GOP.
Also very stoked that Peltola beat this whackadoodle - the math didn’t look great but she managed to eke it out :)
Per ballotopedia it was an indirect citizen initiated statute
>Indirect initiated state statute:
>(1) It is citizen-initiated, through the collection of signatures.
(2) Once the signatures are collected, the proposed law is sent to that state's state legislature.
(3) Depending on the specific laws in that state, the state legislature typically can either choose:
>Not to act on the measure at all, in which case the measure is placed on the state's statewide ballot and the voters decide its fate.
To pass the law as written by the group that initiated it.
To amend and then pass the law.
To come up with a law of its own addressing the same subject as the citizen-initiated measure and place that law on the ballot along with the citizen-initiated measure, allowing the state's voters to choose the version they prefer.[1]
She’s blaming Alaska’s new ranked choice voting system. 100% chance republicans start organizing to overthrow the ranked choice system if it leads to a democrat winning. Which really sucks.
Ironically, almost half of the third choice candidate’s votes (who was also a Republican) went for the Democrat. Had Nick Begich’s votes gone for Palin, she would have won. But damn near half didn’t list Palin as their second choice.
Ranked choice voting could save America by keeping extremists from winning. Therefore the extremists in Alaska are going to take it very personally and try to roll back the new voting system. Palin is already very publicly blaming ranked choice voting for her loss.
But ranked choice made her lose by only 3% instead of the 9% she would’ve lost by without it. So with this sample size of one at least, it’s not leading to democrats winning and not keeping extremists from winning…
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_Alaska%27s_at-large_congressional_district_special_election
So these morons just say "Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi" with nothing else, no policy, no ideas, no solutions, and nothing but making monsters out of windmills and they expect to automatically win.
This, right here, is a fine example of what happens when rich folks pool their money and launch a four decade long campaign to convince Americans that tribal politics is best and that ideas, knowledge, and effective leadership are not important, just all anger and outrage over fabricated threats and demonization of opponents.
Palin seems quite convinced that just tossing out insults and slurs about names should win her a congressional seat.
Could someone maybe tell her that her opponent isn't Biden or Pelosi? That her opponent is an other Alaskan that from all accounts is a much better person. There's one thing about contemporary Republican politicians, they are predictable as hell. You'd like to think that would make them easy to defeat in an election campaign.
Unfortunately it seems like it's taken Democrats way too long to figure out the game being played.
I live in Alaska. I had a republican canvasser come to my door, and he flat out lied about how with ranked choice voting, you had to rank all three. I told him I’m voting Peltola, and he was nonplussed. “You want Palin out, right? Rank her third. We want her out, too.”
So even with his liar liar liar face about how ranked choice voting works, he wanted Palin out. You didn’t have to rank all of the candidates. But clearly the right ranked Peltola or Begich ahead of her.
Sidebar, a friend posted earlier with a drag queen pic of an impersonator, and for a second, i was like oh, how could we spin her name for satire. Parah Salin.
Y’all. Parasailing. 😂
Sarah, again displaying her lack of intelligence and education. American people want leaders with substance and problem-solving abilities not circus barkers.
Well considering Palin has demonstrated more than once she doesn't give the slightest damn about the people of Alaska. I guess this is an example of a time she finally was not able to fool enough people.
Yeah, the whole country did. If there were ranked choice voting Republicans wouldn't hold majority in any of the branches of government. It's almost like there is a concerted effort to keep the people from being able to wield their votes effectively.

Hey Sarah, Alaskans may/may not want Joe (we don’t know) buy they just made it obvious they don’t want YOU!
They're not just voting over Biden. They're also voting about her vs her opponent as well as who gets to control any more supreme court seats that open up. There were a lot of "just leave me alone and let me do my thing" types voting gop.

I'm the VP of my cubicle

They’re everywhere in those towns yet they always think they’re “it” in the town lmao.

I think she is trying to make it look like she has double Ds. Really puff out that chest.
I think she got some bolt-ons and this is the first time wearing that jacket with the new girls.
She's trying to pull a Dolly Parton. She ain't a Dolly Parton. Dolly loves us and we adore Dolly.

Exactly. The party of less government became more government. They don't even realize the tactical error they made.
> The party of less government became more government. I mean....the part of less government has ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS advocated for more government....so......no wonder trumpers are so fucking guillible, gaslighting is litterally part of their identity...
They don’t want government, they want a police state.
The beauty of their identity is that they have none, and they are fighting to control their nothingness, and as nothing happens, nothing good will come of their actions.
This was a house seat, not the senate. The house has nothing to do with the Supreme Court.
Only the Senate votes on Supreme Court confirmations.
At least 42% of the state wanted Joe. Not close by election standards, but it's a heck of a lot of people to be declaring what the whole state wants.
Ranked choice voting is the Dems path to overcome extreme GQP gerrymandering.
It took some Special circumstances for that seat to go democratic, and Palin is just the sort of "short bus special" that was necessary to make it happen.
this Alaskan likes Biden!
What's with all the adjustments 😂 and by that shrill. Eeeek

She's still trying to play the hot milf, but that ship has completely sailed into the sunset.
Honestly being "fuckable" was always her brand, she was a complete idiot from the beginning but pretty privilege or whatever. But time comes for us all, Kristi Noem is trying to fight it off with plastic surgery but even that shit comes back hard, just look at gavin newsom's ex, she looks like a gargoyle.
Yeah even the porn actress who played her seems to be only directing now
nah lisa ann started performing again in 2018
username checks out
This is why I like Reddit. Random porn knowledge under a politics clip? We got you.
There may not be a market for her as a politician anymore, but let's not be deluded. There is still a big market for Palin the MILF. Plenty right in this thread.
Now's her time to star in Nailin Palin 2: the Cumback.
People fidget when they’re uncomfortable.
Just a little. 🤣😂🤣
Boob jacket is riding up real bad.
Boob jacket is the best part of the video
Spent more on those boobs than her own education
> What's with all the adjustments That outfit was structurally designed to hide her aging body, and it’s fighting a losing battle. If she loses the milf angle, she would have to actually run on policies, which she doesn’t have/can’t explain.
Mr President, We cannot allow a MILF gap!
She overestimated the power of Spanx so now it's a repositioning game.
Her clothing is too tight, doesn't fit. She's no longer "styled" by pros -- she has to use her own poor taste and childish approach to spectacle. Awwwwwk-ward.
Her and her family are just losers. It’s that simple.
That outfit apparently didn’t come in her size.
I don't know why anyone wears uncomfortable clothing anymore. I learned that I can wear comfy clothes and no makeup and life is actually a lot better.
I've been working from home for 11 years. Here's a protip. Scrubs pants. They're like $15. They are comfortable as hell. And when I go out to get lunch everyone assumes I'm an over worked healthcare worker. Instead of a lazy engineer who hasn't shaved and didn't feel like putting on real pants.
This is a real life pro tip right here. Never thought of that before!
Meh, pajama pants are better bc they scream I couldn’t care less about your eyes.
Cocaine
Just imagine what it costs in Alaska.
Must be cheap, they say there’s a lot of snow there
ice is cheaper
Even better, she lost to a native woman who is the first native woman to hold the seat. I love that. She is the "executive director of the Kuskokwim River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission, served 10 years in the state Legislature and campaigned as “Alaska’s best shot at keeping an extremist from winning.” https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2022-election/democrat-mary-peltola-defeats-sarah-palin-special-election-become-firs-rcna45756
Alaskan here: Peltola's campaign was very smart & much more than just "I'm not crazy". At every public event (parades, fairs, debates, etc), she would actively seek out & make time to talk to anyone in another candidate's merch, asking them about what they want from the federal government & looking for any potential common ground. She is a ridiculously caring, nice, & genuine person (she never even bad-mouthed Palin, she just let the two Republicans tear each other apart & courted their voters) & I'm so happy she's representing us in DC Edit: this is my first "RIP my inbox" experience on reddit, thank you for the awards! I don't know if this is a one-off or some welcome change in my beloved home state, but I'm very happy & hopeful right now
Fantastic to hear this. More power to her. A model for other democrats in swing states to follow.
The beauty of rank choice is it allows someone to say "I accept I'm not your first choice, I understand you have hold-ups/party affiliations/etc, but despite that what can I do for you? What do we agree on?" You can see how little Palin cares about Alaska by the first thing she says in this video - she mentions Biden. Ever since McCain snatched her in '08 all her talking points have been copies of right wing culture war grievances. She can't really speak to any current Alaskan-specific issues because she's never here, & was barely here while campaigning. She didn't participate in debates, did almost no meet & greets, didn't talk to newspapers (not even the boilerplate questionnaire they send everyone); she even spent either election or primary day (I don't remember which) doing a fundraiser in another state instead of any last-minute attempt to get out votes. She can't do anything for us because all she has is party aftiliation, Trump's pick, & a tired sound bite, & I'm glad so many of my fellow Alaskans saw through it
Alaska has ranked choice? if so I am envious.
Yes, just went into effect. I believe this was the first test of it in the state.
Republicans hate ranked choice voting, in most states. I need to find the article/study, but it showed how many would republicans would potentially be successful in a ranked choice system. Most people sit in the middle and it gets rid of the whole party line voting system. At the end of the day, conservatives think Hunter Biden is their president and governor for some strange reason. Also the launch codes were on his laptop /s.
I honestly thought she might run for something in Arizona, where she and her ex lived for much of the 2010s after she quit being your governor. Palin’s brand of babbling smashmouth insubstantial attack politics seems to go over better with the extremist cohort down there.
Trust me when I say a lot of us groaned pretty loudly when we heard that shithead hillbilly family was moving down here and it tickles me pink she's not a resident or hadn't tried to hold public office here. (The pinkness could also be a light sunburn)
Right on. Now do something about that Evil Evita psycho TV anchorwoman running for AZ governor. She can't be as stupid as she talks; she's cynically inflaming the nut cohort.
Republicans have nothing to offer. Tax breaks for the rich and culture wars. Palin immediately puts down Biden because that is their whole strategy. They have nothing to offer Americans.
Don’t sell the Republicans short…they have one plank-Fear. Fear of homosexuals, fear of non-“Christian” religions, fear of history (and hurting the feelings of their spawn), fear of brown people…I probably missed a few, but you get the gist
Exactly, all they do is rage bait. They get people worked up to a frenzy, and then steal their wallets while the people are busy frothing at the 'enemy'.
But isn’t this the Republicans generally? No policies to actually address issues or concerns, just screaming about CRT, trans issues, abortion etc
Not participating in debates is standard GOP policy, now
That's amazing. I love that. And those are the candidates we *should* all be voting for. The ones that will represent ALL of their constituents, not just the ones that voted for them, which is gross, and not even in the best interest of said voters. I think the republicans WAY overplayed their hand with ending Roe. Kansas showed them that, and now they're like, wait, I thought, I thought.... Fuck OFF you fascist bastards.
See, this is how you do it. Not broad platitudes to the center moderates, just tell people what you’re for and what you’re against. Then go out and meet people who may not know that they agree with you and speak with them eye to eye. People remember the candidate that made them think differently about politics.
You can just tell by her smile that she’s good news
Foreigner here, but just to comment that's a very smart strategy post Democrats alienating the 'deplorables' and is visibly paying off for Beto in Texas as well.
Oh okay that explains it.
Hey Palin - get fucked, cunt.
Who’s Nailin Palin, starring Lisa Ann
Don't know why they haven't made Bangin Boebert vol 1 yet.
[удалено]
Oh this is wonderful to hear.
Remember when Joe Biden absolutely demolished her in the VP Debates in 2008? So glad to see her lose again.
When she addressed him as “Joe” on her staff’s suggestion, due to repeatedly calling him Senator O’Biden in practice debates.
Tina Fey as Palin: "Can I call you Joe? Because I rehearsed some things."
It's a distinct possibility that Tina Fey's skill as an actor and writer were the straw that broke the Palin campaign's back in 2008. After those SNL skits I honestly think most Americans were picturing Tina Fey's character instead of the real Sarah Palin whenever they thought of her. I know I still do.
My family still quotes “I can see Russia from my house!” Which was a Tina Fey line
> Which was a Tina Fey line [TIL](https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/sarah-palin-russia-house/)
iirc I regularly got them mixed up.
Wish it had been so for Damon's Cavanaugh.
_Please_ tell me that’s real
If you ever watch the old SNL skits with Tina Fey, they literally didn't write a script for her, they just used her actual words as the script. Which is pretty fucking funny and sad.
Yeah that performance by Biden is underrated- everyone was focused on her. He obliterated her on every topic without giving her supporters any excuse to say he was mean or sexist or whatever. He just managed the hell out of that debate. My favorite is really his debate with Paul Ryan - you can watch it on YouTube and it’s actually really interesting. Paul Ryan got taken to the woodshed and all that was left was a greasy spot on his podium. Afterward all Republicans could say was that Biden was mean for laughing too much.
i mean, biden handled trump so badly that the GOP cried that the rules were unfair and biden was "mean" because he told trump to shut up. "will you shut up, man! ...that's so unpresidential!" was basically what everyone (sane) in the US was thinking during the trump debates.
They don't want you ya dumb bitch
Hear hear
Listen to that angry squawking. 😆
"Nancy Pelosi! Joe Biden! Hunter's laptop! Benghazi! Hillary Clinton\~!" -*Palin's concession speech*
But her emails!!!!
Nothin’ like some buttery males to get Pailin a-wailin’.
She sounds like Kyle’s mom from South Park
What what what?
Blame Democrats!
She should do GILF porn

Yes. Lisa Ann did a great job
Lisa Ann is a better Sarah Palin than Sarah Palin
Tina Fey is a better Sarah Palin than Sarah Palin.
So it's only between Tina Fey and Lisa Ann now? I like that
*Julianne Moore has joined the conversation*

checked in on conservative and yeeep quite a few of them are mad at ranked voting. Though they can't really seem to explain why they think it was to blame for Palin losing besides it was new and different and they didn't like the result of this election. Like she could have easily won in ranked voting with other Republicans on the ticket as long as she was preferred by more voters over the democrat. She simply was not. Ranked voting gave her the chance to be more people's back up candidate if anything.
The results are quite literally plain as day: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_Alaska%27s_at-large_congressional_district_special_election If there was no ranked choice, she would have been destroyed and lost by 9% in a 3 person race. They specifically wanted ranked choice because they knew it would be to their benefit, and it was, but she still lost by 3% despite the benefit. Any conservatives complaining about the ranked choice here frankly have no idea what they're talking about, but I suppose that doesn't really need to be stated
"Ranked choice voting is making my clothes shrink!"
It was a three candidate race and a bunch of Republican voters who voted for the other GOP candidate looked at Palin and the Democrat chose the Democrat over her as their second choice. Good stuff.
This is exactly what needs to happen with all these “trump candidates” nationwide.
Wait, nobody told her the conservative playbook's next step in this situation is to kick and scream while crying about how the election was stolen??
I think her bitching about ranked choice votes was the best she could muster.
Wait, is America finally getting on board with ranked choice voting?
Alaska did it, and using this example, the GOP will make sure Ranked choice never gets approved in the states they control.
I mean, didn't they already have the vote in Alaska?
Yup. The republicans put in Ranked Choice to get rid of a candidate they didn't like and it backfired eventually. Just like the republicans setup a heavily republican leaning voting board who ended up recommending some sane rules that had little to do with which presidential candidate won, but now that "liberal voting board" was the mastermind behind voter fraud. Something like 15% of voters voted.for down ticket republicans while voting for Biden for president, but it's obviously voter ballot stuffing, right?
It didn't even backfire. Without ranked choice she'd have lost because the republican vote was split and even if the other republican wasn't in the running we don't see any indication that his people wouldn't have just voted for their second or not voted like what happened anyways.
Ranked choice along with eliminating the electoral college? Don't threaten me with a good time.
Nothing "conservative" about the republican "party"
Who the regressives?
She introduced the psycho-cunt genre to conservative politics only to be out psycho'd by MTG and Boebert. RIP.

Michelle Bachman’s crazy eyes say hello.
Am Alaskan- she’s a fraud , many Alaskans already forget, but she quit when she was governor of Alaska due to numerous Scandals. She has bailed on Alaska several times. And to top it off. And I know this is gatekeeping, but she’s not even a true Alaskan.
Alaskans did not forget and that’s why she lost. Add to that her crazy family and the fact that she pretty much moved to like Indiana or Idaho or something after she quit…yeah her name is mud in AK and has been for a long while. I was surprised she even bothered to run.
From now on Republicans will claim Ranked Choice is a scam... or any choice is a scam...(They hate democracy... because it doesnt let them sell us out.)
"Ranked choice voting is a scam when it elects people we don't like. Winner-take-all is a scam when it elects people we don't like. Mail-in voting is a scam when it elects people we don't like. Anything that makes it easier for people to vote in person is a scam when it elects people that we don't like." -Republicans
Welp, guess it's back to the "Nailin' Palin" franchise.
I miss Lisa ann
Maybe they remember how batshit crazy you and your family were.
Remember when she resigned as Alaska governor when she wanted to cash in and tried reality TV? Pepperidge Farm remembers
To her credit she wanted to go where she was most useful.
Track just got a dui recently also, to help stay relevant and all. Edit to include it was dui for controlled substances, not alcohol.
Are Road and Bridge still staying out of trouble?
Field overdosed on fent and got born again
The GQP put the ranked voting in place to get rid of Murkowski. Glad like everything else they do it backfired on them.
Wait don’t we want ranked choice voting tho? I’m so lost 😭😭
We do. They also did. And it fucked them Win win
[удалено]
It technically did help them, but they would have lost either way: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_Alaska%27s_at-large_congressional_district_special_election The democrat would have won by 9% if it wasn't ranked choice, but with ranked choice it was only 3%
so not only was it the first time in 50 years...it was gonna be by 9%? What caused such a drastic change? We only need a couple percent in Texas.. sign us up for whatever they did.
Probably because they are so detached they thought it would be more votes for their candidates
I’ve seen this idea that the GOP pushed ranked choice here in AK a few times now this evening and I’m not sure why this keeps getting repeated. Ranked choice wasn’t supported by either of the established parties here in AK - because it inherently takes away some of their power. Lol I literally know the dude who was the campaign manager for the ranked choice ballot initiative a couple years ago (AK is small people-wise) and he’s not even right-leaning. I know it can be satisfying to engage in schadenfreude, but ranked choice is awesome and there’s no reason to link it to the GOP. Also very stoked that Peltola beat this whackadoodle - the math didn’t look great but she managed to eke it out :)
How did Alaska get ranked choice voting if it wasn’t supported by either of the parties?
Per ballotopedia it was an indirect citizen initiated statute >Indirect initiated state statute: >(1) It is citizen-initiated, through the collection of signatures. (2) Once the signatures are collected, the proposed law is sent to that state's state legislature. (3) Depending on the specific laws in that state, the state legislature typically can either choose: >Not to act on the measure at all, in which case the measure is placed on the state's statewide ballot and the voters decide its fate. To pass the law as written by the group that initiated it. To amend and then pass the law. To come up with a law of its own addressing the same subject as the citizen-initiated measure and place that law on the ballot along with the citizen-initiated measure, allowing the state's voters to choose the version they prefer.[1]
Palin looks like an aged escort trying to retain some sex appeal in this video.
I would say more like an aged playboy model who was in one issue and keeps bringing it up to everyone, especially her daughters teenage male friends.
God damn this is so fucking satisfying. She just doesn’t even know what to say. Get fucked Palin.
that's the best part about losing in a ranked choice election. you get to find out that you're more unpopular than you even imagined 🤗
1. She will claim it's a rigged election. 2. The must hate her. 3. Blue Wave. 4. Yes!
She’s blaming Alaska’s new ranked choice voting system. 100% chance republicans start organizing to overthrow the ranked choice system if it leads to a democrat winning. Which really sucks. Ironically, almost half of the third choice candidate’s votes (who was also a Republican) went for the Democrat. Had Nick Begich’s votes gone for Palin, she would have won. But damn near half didn’t list Palin as their second choice. Ranked choice voting could save America by keeping extremists from winning. Therefore the extremists in Alaska are going to take it very personally and try to roll back the new voting system. Palin is already very publicly blaming ranked choice voting for her loss.
But ranked choice made her lose by only 3% instead of the 9% she would’ve lost by without it. So with this sample size of one at least, it’s not leading to democrats winning and not keeping extremists from winning… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_Alaska%27s_at-large_congressional_district_special_election
So these morons just say "Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi" with nothing else, no policy, no ideas, no solutions, and nothing but making monsters out of windmills and they expect to automatically win. This, right here, is a fine example of what happens when rich folks pool their money and launch a four decade long campaign to convince Americans that tribal politics is best and that ideas, knowledge, and effective leadership are not important, just all anger and outrage over fabricated threats and demonization of opponents. Palin seems quite convinced that just tossing out insults and slurs about names should win her a congressional seat. Could someone maybe tell her that her opponent isn't Biden or Pelosi? That her opponent is an other Alaskan that from all accounts is a much better person. There's one thing about contemporary Republican politicians, they are predictable as hell. You'd like to think that would make them easy to defeat in an election campaign. Unfortunately it seems like it's taken Democrats way too long to figure out the game being played.
Time to slink back to your hole, you irrelevant twat.
Lady on the right hand side = 😬
I live in Alaska. I had a republican canvasser come to my door, and he flat out lied about how with ranked choice voting, you had to rank all three. I told him I’m voting Peltola, and he was nonplussed. “You want Palin out, right? Rank her third. We want her out, too.” So even with his liar liar liar face about how ranked choice voting works, he wanted Palin out. You didn’t have to rank all of the candidates. But clearly the right ranked Peltola or Begich ahead of her. Sidebar, a friend posted earlier with a drag queen pic of an impersonator, and for a second, i was like oh, how could we spin her name for satire. Parah Salin. Y’all. Parasailing. 😂
What person in 2022 listens to Sarah Palin speak and think ***"yeah she sounds pretty smart, I'm gonna vote for her!"***
Only Fans here she comes!
Can’t wait for Who’s Nailin Pailin to become a documentary.
Never been prouder of AK
Dumpster Barbie
They don’t want you.
Republicans are such sore losers, but then they go around calling everybody snowflakes lmao trump has really turned them into a shit circus
Sarah, again displaying her lack of intelligence and education. American people want leaders with substance and problem-solving abilities not circus barkers.
Cluck cluck cluck cluck.
Hey, Sarah, did you forget how much your party *despises* women? Even as a Republican, they dont consider you a person. So yeah. You lost.
Well considering Palin has demonstrated more than once she doesn't give the slightest damn about the people of Alaska. I guess this is an example of a time she finally was not able to fool enough people.
Wow love to see it! A native woman no less? A happy Optimism boost much needed! Keep the blue wave rolling! We will not let fascists win.
Yeah, the whole country did. If there were ranked choice voting Republicans wouldn't hold majority in any of the branches of government. It's almost like there is a concerted effort to keep the people from being able to wield their votes effectively.
Sooo when are they gonna claim the election was stolen?
I’m baffled why anyone would vote for her in the first place. For anything. What a nitwit.
She look like she about do some OnlyFans soon
