PALIN ON WHY THEY LOST...

She talks about the dramatic increase in the National Debt (ND) and "blunders" in the war. Now, most GOPers can agree that the ND is a problem but the talk radio GOP should denounce Palin for stating that there were any blunders in their glorious war. Notice also that she didn't mention the collapse of our economy into a recession.

Q. Why do you think your campaign lost?

A. I think the Republican ticket represented too much of the status quo, too much of what had gone on in these last eight years, that Americans were kind of shaking their heads like going, wait a minute, how did we run up a 10 trillion dollar debt in a Republican administration? How have there been blunders with war strategy under a Republican administration? If we're talking change, we want to get far away from what it was that the present administration represented and that is to a great degree what the Republican Party at the time had been representing. So people desiring change I think went as far from the administration that is presently seated as they could. It's amazing that we did as well as we did.
