In the end she did the right thing and killed it. So for me that makes it a weak argument to use against her. Especially when there are so many other good ones to use.

One of the problems I have discussing politics with people here or IRL is the black and white viewpoints people often have. If they don't like a candidate (ie Palin) then EVERYTHING about them has to be bad. Hell George Bush is in solid contention for worst president in the history of the United States but even he has his good moments. No one (except perhaps Rove) is all evil.

So I feel quite comfortable patting Palin on the back for killing a $200,000,000 bridge project or selling a unnneeded jet while at the same time blasting her for her views on abortion, sex education and scores of other topics.
