From the Palin for Governor archives
From the Palin for Governor archives.
How did Sarah Palin present herself to voters in the 2006 race for governor? Check out these campaign materials from our archives:
After she won the primary, she sent out this four page color flier. It touts her stands on four issues: Gasline, State Spending, Open Government and Accountability and includes endorsements from Wally Hickel (a past governor on the Alaska Independence Party ticket), dog musher Martin Buser, and Bristol Bay Native Corporation Elder of the Year (2000) Lena Andree.
The Republican National Governors Association touted Palin in this postcard. It says "Let's look at her resume" which apparently fit easily on a 5 1/2" by 6'' section of the card.
Independent voters got this mailing from Palin, which said she has "always believed in Republican ideals of limited government, competition,[url=http://nikefree.mobilejeti.com]nike free tilbud[/url], taking responsibility for your own actions, and strong support for a healthy private sector." She went on to say she was concerned about "extreme partisanship that has come to dominate our public affairs" and pledged to make appointments "bssed on the qualifications of the person, not party affiliation."
During the primary, her oppponent Johne Binkley blasted her with this mailing of a Frontiersman editorial "Mayor's lost credibility," which basically called Palin a liar when she was mayor of Wasilla.
You know what I'm thinking, because you're thinking it, too.
If Barack Obama had chosen Hillary Clinton as his running mate, we would now be looking forward to the greatest night in the history of American politics: the Oct. 2 vice presidential debate between Ma Barker and Sarah Barracuda.
Now, alas, we'll have to wait until 2012 when the two fiercest competitors on the trail will no doubt face off in the presidential debate, with Palin still riding high from her 2008 fielddressing of Obama (who's now back in the Senate convening his subcommittee on Afghanistan).
The two women are both aggressive pols who take disagreement personally, accruing a body count of rivals, and who have been known to exaggerate their accomplishments. But in ideological terms, the guntoting hockey mom and the shotswilling Warrior Queen of the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pantsuits are opposites.
By 2012, the 76yearold John McCain will be on his way out. His vice president will wear him down, making him change the name of the White House to Rouge Cou the name Sarah licensed in 2005 in case she ever got into business and turn Camp David into a caribou hunting ranch. Then she'll scare him, informing him that if he tries for a second term, she'll challenge him in the primary.
"How would you like this pit bull grandma to clean your grandfather clock?" she'll tell President McCain in her flat "Fargo" accent. was nothing compared with being trapped in the White House with "that woman."
It's delicious imagining the Debate of the Century between Big Mama, as Bill's male aides called Hillary, and "Hottie Granny," as People magazine will doubtless dub Sarah. ESPN will want in.
PALIN: Before we start, Hillary, I want to honor your achievement in 2008. You nicked the glass ceiling. But in the end, as my friend Cheryl Metiva from Wasilla Bible Church said, I was more of a woman and more of a man than you, so I was the one who actually busted up the old boys' club. Sorry I called you a whiner about sexism. That was before I realized how handy the victim card can be against the press wolves. In Alaska, we just gun down wolves from the air.
CLINTON: I do give you and John credit, Sarah, for following my blueprint to reveal Obama as all cage, no bird. But now the Democrats have crawled back to me and I will close the deal. So pack up your snow boots and antlers and backwoods brood and scram.
PALIN: I've got a little news flash for you, Hillary. Your nightshift, bluecollarwaitress, boilermaker routine didn't fool me. gutting moose. While you got to go to your snooty Wellesley, I had to switch colleges six times in six years. While you got to go to Yale Law, I had to enter beauty contests and turn my back to judges in a bathing suit to get scholarship money.
CLINTON: I've got a little news flash for you, Annie Oakley. Dinosaurs disappeared a lot longer than 4,000 years ago. I admit you've had a profound influence on America, and I'm not just talking about all the women wearing updos and rimless titanium $375 Kazuo Kawasaki designer frames. You and John are now at war with four countries Russia, Iran, Iraq and Afghanistan, even as Osama bin Laden has opened a storefront in a strip mall in Pakistan to make TV ads.
PALIN: Those wars are tasks from God.
CLINTON: You said you wanted to help women, but you've only hurt them with your silly mantra that women can have it all if they just work harder and pray harder. You put Medicare on eBay. You cut funding for specialneeds children. The Dobson Supreme Court has outlawed abortion, evolution and gun control. With sex education banned, baby bumps in high schools are rampant. And the head of your Abstinence Outreach Program, Levi Johnston, has failed to force any other teenage fathers to marry their prom dates.
PALIN: Life is always welcome. Unless it's on four legs.
CLINTON: When it comes to Big Oil, you make Dick Cheney look small bore. You had secret energy meetings to eliminate polar bears. You've turned Alaska into Kuwait without the sand. Gas is $50 a gallon and global warming has changed the Rose Garden into the Palm Court. Your only energy plan is to give tax credits to people who put doityourself oil rigs in their backyards. You created a Department of Drilling and More Drilling and put doubledipping Todd in charge.
PALIN: You're chiding me about nepotism? At least I know how to control my First Dude. If you think that fake sniper fire in Bosnia was bad, wait till you get a load of my hunting rifle.
CLINTON: Adios, Sister Sarah. You're tough, but I've been tougher longer. Slide out of town on that oil slick you made on the Mall. And take that Grizzly throw with you
