you were confused about his relevance. if we are going to make past associations relevant to this campaign, the Jefferson is relevant because he is an example of a secessionist - just like Palin's husband. i would consider being married to a secessionist a close and present association for a political candidate, much more relevant than a past association with a convicted white-collar criminal who only contributed over $100,000 to my campaign or an un-convicted social dissident who contributed $200.

and i would be happy to drop this as soon as we stop talking about Ayers. I consider both arguments to be a waste of time and a deflection from the important issues.

If you read what I said . If you look up and research out any political person. Wether it is a Democrat, Republican Independent or even Green party you will find a skeleton in everyone's closet.


I mentioned Helms because he is the one I remember the most and he was in the news having recently died. Byrd, Hubert Humpery.. To the Kennedys.. Hmm Edward what ever did happen to that young girl in your car? And the Death of Marilyn Monroe.


There equal oppoturnity of skeletons in the closets. I am just reminding everyone that no politican is 100%clean.


I think what matters is what people feel is important. To keep bring up past scandals/association on one side of the fence means that it can easily be found on the other. Unless you start with
