Palin-Bachmann 2012 ticket?

I just found it funny that Fox News "fair and balanced" introduced her as Governor Sarah Palin, like she never resigned. Why not "Quitter Sarah Palin"?

er, that's like SOP for ex-politicians.

It is protocol that states that if someone earns a title because they were voted into office, they retain the protocol of address after they leave. You didn't mention which political title so I can't tell you what their honorific will be after they leave office. No distinction is made between whether a person leaves office by their own resignation or whether they have been voted out (the same thing as firing them). Senators are Senators all their lives. Governors too. Members of the House of Representatives are Mr. and Ms. while they are in office and after they leave. Presidents are Mr. President when in office and Mr. Smith when they leave. Presidents do not keep their title after leaving office. All officials who have been voted in by election will be The Honorable for the rest of their lives.

Just as every other news source says "senator" to former senators?
Just as every other news source says "governor" to former governors?
Just as every other news source says "president" to former presidents?

Palin derangement syndrome is in full force.

Every other senator/governor/president who RESIGNED in the MIDDLE of their FIRST TERM? Not so much.

Why would you vote in someone that you know will fail? You should be voting in the best and the brightest minds, instead you pick Palin/Bachmann......America needs to wake the fuck up

How many mentions of their 'politics' do you see in this thread..

The last poll I saw of ATP&N, more members identified with Libertarians and the GOP than any other group.

Except that almost all the people in this thread are making sexist comments about these women where threads about Obama the right sticks to his policies and not his race. Fact is the left is a bunch of bigots who tries to pass it off by saying the right is. Obama's race is hardly ever mentioned except by the left when they are trying to paint the right as racists.

Truth hurts.. Women should realize there's no place for them in the Democrat party.

Hahaha, being so stupid must actually be painful for you.
