Todd Palin has exerted unusual influence on his wife's Alaska government. In Washington, their methods would do Bush and Cheney proud.

    Just what we need, another massive article about the Palins,

    complete with full color picture of the hot husband. The media are obviously trying to sell the republicans with sex appeal. The interview with Sara looked like a cocktail lounge scene in The Graduate.

    We should be hammering nonstop on the differences in policy.

    Democrat policy: healthcare, fiscal restraint, strategic investment, middle class tax cuts, green energy (thank you Al), bipartisanship, and far reaching diplomacy.

    Republican policies: tax cuts for corporations and the rich, out of control deficit spending, strategic lying, and needless wars to dump cash on the oil and war intustries.

    And do we really want to reward the republicans for their corruption and incompetence?
