How can Palin be considered a "Reformer"?

Question

Please be unbiased (I know its hard) and specific.

Answer 1

I thought reformers made things better?

Answer 2

She was considered a reformer when she went to cleaning up the corrupt Alaskan Politics.

Answer 3

I've also seen that and had a similar reaction to some of the other posters.  I mean LOL.  Who do they think they're kidding?  

Answer 4

LOL. Yes 'reform' is a new Rove's invention that McCain used first when presenting Palin. Isn't it hilarious ? 'Reformer' McCain ... LOL

Answer 5

I guess, if you consider a reformer a person that gets more than 20 million dollars in earmarks for a town of 5000. She also was a supporter of the Bridge to Nowhere before it was shot down in the US Senate. Her state however, kept the earmark money that was supposed to be used for the bridge to nowhere. Alaska is one of the worst states in the union when it comes to the use of earmarks. Ted Stevens is one of the biggest earmark users in the entire Senate.

Answer 6

if u knew her record a mayor u would not have to ask this question

Answer 7

I would like to know that considering when she took over the reins of wasilla, the town was debt free and by the time she left they were $22 million in the red ( gee now where did we see this story before, it is so top of mind)  She had been a cheerleader for the bridge to nowhere now all of a sudden it was supposedly thanks but no thanks. Come on now

Answer 8

She's going to 'reform' s*x ed in this countries schools to teach nothing but 'abstinence only'.  There will be no more talk about contraceptives, or safe s*x practices.

She's also going to reform science curriculum to include creationism.  After all, it's in the Bible.

She's also going to 'reform' the US military to operate the way that the Alaskan National Guard did while she was it's Commander:

She'll probably 'reform' our economy too - no more corrupt middlemen getting in the way.  No - from now on, corporations and lobbyists will have direct access to the White House.

Answer 9

Interesting label to put on someone who raised money for corrupt Alaskan Senator Ted Stevens.  

Answer 10

It is because she sided with democrats to oust corrupt Republican's from office.  

Answer 11

Because she was for the "bridge to nowhere" before she was against it!  No...that's not it.....

Because Alaskans have more pork barrel earmarks per capita than any other state!!  No...that's no it either....

Cause she's taxing oil companies on windfall profits in Alaska which is highly criticized by republicans when Obama propses it.  That's not it either....

Darn it - ya got me stumped!
