Mean girl

Sarah Palin has a way of using "old boys" -- then dumping them when they become inconvenient.

    Typical Woman in the Workplace

    If this is truly the behavior Ms. Palin exhibited during her "rise" to power, this makes her no different than any other woman in the corporate workforce who destroys whoever she needs to in order to facilitate her ascent.

    Too many Sarah Palins already reside in corporate America, and the last place we need one is in the White House. If we haven't had enough corporate greed, patronage and flat-out stupidity at the helm of government, go ahead - vote for McCain. But before you do, think back over the course of your career and remember the posse of conniving bitches you crossed paths with over the years, who treated you exactly how Palin treated those that helped her along the way.

    I am a woman, and it pains me to say this about my own gender, but they are out there, and once they get rolling in this mode of behavior, they are about as hard to stop as a Rocky Mountain avalanche. So sad, but unfortunately, so very, very true.
