Still No Medical Records From Palin

<snip>
ABC News' Kate Snow reports: With three days left until the election, the John McCain campaign still has not, despite frequent requests, released any information about vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin's medical history, prompting some well-warranted skepticism.

Of course there are plenty of perfectly innocent explanations. The governor is perfectly healthy and the campaign feels no public pressure to release information? The doctor is on vacation and unreachable? The dog ate their records?

There are also more sinister explanations. But we won't go there.

<snip>
It was ten days ago that Governor Palin said she would be "fine" with releasing her records.

She is the only one of the presidential or vice presidential candidates who has not released any health information about herself.

Palin did suggest that releasing her records could be fodder for political attacks of some kind.

"So be it, if that will allow some curiosity seekers, perhaps, to have one more thing that they can either check the box off that they can find something to criticize, perhaps, or find something to rest them assured over. Fine. I'm healthy, I'm happy, had five kids. That is going to be in the medical records. Never been seriously ill or hurt. You will see that in the medical records if they're released," Palin told NBC's Brian Williams on October 22.

1. I'd go with the "dogs ate the records."

[SoCalDem]

2. Because they would show no prenatal care during the winter of '07-spring of '08

would be my guess..

[kayakjohnny]

4. Ca-ching!!!

[Jackpine Radical]

6. "I'm healthy, I'm happy, had five kids. That is going to be in the medical records."

Methinks she doth protest...interestingly.

"Five kids" right there on top of her list of what's in the records.

[DarthDem]

13. GREAT Hamlet Reference!

I love it when people (besides me) make a "doth protest too much" reference! Good call.

[Jackpine Radical]

25. I quoted the common version; more correctly, iirc, it's

"The lady doth protest too much, methinks."

[DarthDem]

30. It Is

And you're right, it is almost always misquoted with the "methinks" first for some reason. :-)

[Champion Jack]

22. BINGO!

more likely 4

[glinda]

9. EXACTLY

It will show some issue or issues. Baby not hers or ignored warnings about care or something. She did not lie of course when she said the information would be fodder for the press. I am sure it would!

[ColbertWatcher]

15. I'm gonna have to go with this or some mental health issue. n/t

[LibDemAlways]

32. And no record of having given birth this Spring. n/t

[Fuzz]

3. Doesn't surprise me at all.

[Olney Blue]

5. Tummy tuck?

[hisownpetard]

7. It ticks me off that no one on the air or in print is mentioning this (unless I've missed it).

[Dora]

My money is on tubal ligation. nt

[kayakjohnny]

8. She's probably really high in Co-less-to-her-all.

[kayakjohnny]

10. I think she has a problem with her 'free radicals'.

[onecent]

11. Why does she always get a "get away with murder" card??? n/t

[malaise]

12. I'm betting mental illness

Just saying.

[kayakjohnny]

14. Her 'white blood cell' count is way too high.

[upi402]

16. fake boobs. eom

[dkofos]

17. Nope can't release those pesky medical records.

People would learn the truth about her children.

[kayakjohnny]

18. Nervous twitch in her left eye beginning of nervous system damage?

[LynnTheDem]

19. Palin will release them "early in the week" ....6 days ago.

Just another republican lie. :shrug:

[kayakjohnny]

20. Gout from too much moose meat?

OK... guess I can stop now. Suprised no one threw me off this thread. Thank you all very much.

[WA98296]

21. She's hiding something.

[rcrush]

23. Face lift n/t

[Rosa Luxemburg]

24. maybe she had a 'miscarriage'

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

26. There must be something rather damaging there

If there weren't, she could make political hay out of it by releasing the records and crowing that she has nothing to hide and that it's a sign that hers would be a transparent administration that hides nothing from the people.

[fascisthunter]

27. Maybe She Had an ABORTION....

really strange she would keep this secret.

[Disturbed]

28. She will not release them. Saying that she would was a stall.

If there was nothing to hide she would have released them.

[704wipes]

29. Maybe she had an anal cyst like Rush

or a self-inflicted gunshot wound showing her lack of hunting skills; MAYBE some domestic violence injuries from Todd the Impaler ???

[David Zephyr]

31. Very revealing. And where is the news media on such an important matter?

Nowhere.

[Rob H.]

33. She should stick to canned talking points

At least she doesn't sound quite so incoherent that way.

So be it, if that will allow some curiosity seekers, perhaps, to have one more thing that they can either check the box off that they can find something to criticize, perhaps, or find something to rest them assured over.

[KoKo]

34. That little baby TRIG...is NOT HER OWN! Treats him like bag of dirty diapers.
