Sarah Palin is back in the news again, as is Newt. Newt’s presidential hopes are toast; the libs have indelibly demonized him. Sarah, on the other hand, still has a fighting chance.
If Palin wants to be the 2012 nominee, she needs to come out swinging now. She has to redeem herself after the dog-piling she received from the Democrats, the press, the comedians, supposed feminists, and pop culture in general. Even fellow Repubs left her twisting in the wind. Hell, McCain showed more anger at perceived slights against Obama than he did towards the Palin smears.
The Hannity interview was good, but he’s friendly territory. Smart and sassy Sarah needs to face off with John Stewart on his turf. She should cheerily jump in that bucket of crabs known as The View (Talk about a diamond in a pile of excrement!) She must submit herself to any and all hostile MSM’ers if she is to erase the public perception that she is a lightweight twinkie.
Obama Shows Palin The Way
Palin can be president. Obama has blazed the way. If a community organizer with zero experience can make it to the White House, surely a former business owner and governor can. Who would you rather have staring down our international adversaries? A woman who stood up to her own party bosses and “big oil” and defeated them? Or an effete metrosexual who’s never run so much as a hot dog stand and who’s greatest intellectual achievement is writing two books about himself?
If Palin doesn’t come back fighting and vindicate herself, she will be Quayle’d. Vice President Dan Quayle is another fine conservative unfairly painted as a dunce.
Remember when Dan Quayle was asked about his trip to Latin America and he said he didn’t speak Latin? Everybody laughs at that one. The only problem is, it never happened.
Palin never said she could see Russia from her house, either. Tina Fey said that. Liberal pop culture has made us so stupid we can’t tell fantasy from reality, and liberal elites bank on that, which explains our current situation.
Meanwhile, The Smartest and Noblest Man to Ever Occupy the White House, when talking of Austria, said he didn’t speak Austrian. There is no such language, they speak German there. The washed up comics found no humor in that one, and our pretend reporters made excuses for him.
This is what Sarah Palin, and the rest of us conservatives, are up against. Godspeed, Sarah…
Wish I had known this because I would have added this to the list of suggestions I sent to the david letterman show to use a jokes about uhbama since david and his writers said it was impossible to make jokes or fun of uhbama because uhbama does not make mistakes!
Palin is fighting back. She is WAY more responsive to attacks now than she was during the campaign, and that’s because (I think) McCain’s people held her back. Her book, due out next year (I think) will define her as she wants to be defined, and it will give the undecided portion of the public an unfiltered view of her.
If thats true.. then the republican party is toast..
Republicans generally are smartening up..
Could be political parties are obsolete.. yes even the democrat party..
Political caucuses are forming..
A federal political machine is in control... absolute control..
Other options are being formed and considered..
Palin still has a chance, washed-up late night (not so) comics notwithstanding.

Sandra Bernhard issued a blistering warning to Sarah Palin during a performance of her new one-woman show.
The Republican V.P. nom would be "gang-raped by my big black brothers" if she enters Manhattan, Bernhard said. Palin is said to be making a campaign stop in New York next week.
"[The gang rape comment] is part of a much larger, nuanced, and yes, provocative (that's what I do) piece from my show about racism, freedom, women's rights and the extreme views of Governor Sarah Palin, a woman who doesn't believe that other women should have the right to choose," Bernhard told the Daily News today.

Seven months after Election Day, and the attacks on Sarah Palin keep coming.
On Monday, CBS's David Letterman on the "Late Show" shamelessly went after the Alaska governor and her family during his opening monologue, as well as in his "Top Ten" list.
Top Ten Highlights Of Sarah Palin's Trip To New York
10. Visited New York landmarks she normally only sees from Alaska
9. Laughed at all the crazy-looking foreigners entering the U.N.
8. Made moose jerky on Rachael Ray
7. Keyed Tina Fey's car
6. After a wink and a nod, ended up with a kilo of crack
5. Made coat out of New York City rat pelts
4. Sat in for Kelly Ripa. Regis couldn't tell the difference.
3. Finally met one of those Jewish people Mel Gibson's always talking about
2. Bought makeup from Bloomingdale's to update her "slutty flight attendant" look
1. Especially enjoyed not appearing on Letterman
"One awkward moment for Sarah Palin at the Yankee game, during the seventh inning, her daughter was knocked-up by Alex Rodriguez."

Also, if you have a MYSPACE account, send Dave a special message. (not that he’ll read it.
Dave,
You’re comedic license has EXPIRED.
She actually did say she could see Russia from her house, but she meant that when a threat to security is so close, you become an expert. It wasn’t what she said that was so bad, it was what they twisted it to mean.
With a face like that I wouldn't be making fun of anybody. Why are self-described comedians like Bernhard and Letterman so bitter anyway? I think Bernhard is still hurt over Madonna dropping her for that skinny guy...
I think it's jealousy. Palin has it all: Good looks, power, a great family, she loves God and she's happy. That's so outside the liberal mainstream.
The fact that Conservatives are demonized by the MSM/DNC/Hollywood/Academia war room is a given.
It is how much they cave under that pressure that matters.
that is one of the ugliest transvestites I have ever seen.
Exactly. She was trying to say that since Russia is so close to Alaska, her state is the first line of defense. That alone makes her eminently qualified for the Presidency. Of course, the MSM didn't dare compare her experience as the Governor of a large, energy-rich, strategically-located state to that of the ACORN-trained community organizer. Based on resume alone, she was more qualified than EVERYONE who ran a campaign in 2008.
The Russia line will live on and be used as the main tool to mock and dismiss Palin. I’ve lost count of the awards Tina Fey has won with it.
Nope. The quote was that Russia is visible from Alaska. It was to let clueless people know how close the proximity is and that she deals with Russia as a neighbor. SNL twisted it to make her look bad.
Buy John Ziegler’s DVD and you can see the two quotes side by side.
