		<description>I&#039;m a 25-year Alaskan who has been writing an Alaska blog since 2005.  I was also the blog chosen for the Democratic National Convention Blog Pool representing Alaska.  (Go Obama!)

I&#039;m much more invested in bringing down Sarah Palin than ANY of you.

I have friends in the Valley who have known Sarah Palin and her children for up to 18 years.  I ran your article by them and they don&#039;t believe your claims of racist epithets at all...they&#039;ve seen no evidence.

And yes, they are afraid...you&#039;ve got that right...and they are even more invested in making sure that Palin can&#039;t do any damage on a national level than the rest of us. However, like me, they won&#039;t use lies to do so.  It will just backfire on us in the end.

&lt;a href=&quot;http://divasblueoasis.blogspot.com/2008/09/progressive-curmudgeon-may-have.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;I wrote an article on my blog refuting your claims&lt;/a&gt; because I believe the likelihood of their accuracy is low.  If you want the full explanation of why, you&#039;ll have to read it.  If you want the full explanation of why my information is more credible than yours, you can get that in the article as well.

However, above and beyond that...these claims were WAY too explosive for you to take them public based on a waitress overhearing them at a restaurant.  As a journalist, you should know that.</description>

		<description>I, for one, appreciate the work you&#039;ve done to bring the &quot;other&quot; side of Sarah Palin to light. My sincere hope is that all of this material gets out to the electorate before they vote. Perhaps many Republicans would STILL vote for her and McCain, but I think quite a few would decide to stay home on election day.

I lost respect for John McCain back when he became George Bush&#039;s puppet. I see now that when John Mccain saw himself in Palin he saw someone as machiavellian as he is. Both are blinded by ambition, narcissistic, and care little for America (despite their false testimonies).</description>

		<description>You really need to give citations for these stories against Palin.  Heresay, no matter how juicy it sounds to you, does not fly.</description>
