Wow!! Credit and kudos to HalfGov for her remarks about Mary Peltola:

In a speech to supporters, Palin questioned election integrity and again criticized the state’s new ranked choice voting system. She later told reporters she “does not anticipate” challenging the results of the election in court.

Palin and Peltola have been friends since their days in Juneau, when Palin was governor and Peltola was a legislator. Despite the loss, Palin had only good things to say about her opponent Wednesday evening.

“She’s a beautiful soul. She’s a great mother, has a heart for Alaska. We just represent very, very polarizing views.”

It saddens me so much to see how we destroyed the native Indians on this continent, and it really warms my heart to see Peltola win this race. She looks like a true native American. And good news for the Dems.

someone probably got through her thick skull that "total sore loser" wouldn't look good.

The only thing she sincerely cares about is herself.

and her evil vitriol will rear its ugly head as soon as the cash for Nov. starts rolling in. I've got a 25 year old pick up truck that I need for occasional dirty work I have to do. It's an old pick up, I've owned it for 15 of those 25 years. I will wash AND sometimes wax it. It looks like nice and shiny rust for a week. But the older it gets I can't hide what it really is. But I know one thing, I can trust that old truck when I need it.

I had a 1990 F-150 I bought used with 100K miles on it. I put 160K on top of that (@11mpg) then sold it to a guy down the street 12 years ago. He still has it to haul his boat. Not the prettiest truck ever, but it starts every time and doesn't leak or use extra oil. I'll borrow it several times a year for moving something. Always love driving it.

Will make some of these repugs realize that it's OK to disagree and stay civil. Never thought I'd see this behavior led by reality TV personality and generally perceived buffoon Sarah Palin.

Gives me hope. I'm OK being wrong about this part of her.
