What is funny to me is the fact that I never mentioned Sarah Palin’s intelligence. I just mentioned that I like and admire her. To me, she is a decent person. I guess the far-left and the far-right both should fear her. She dang sure appeals to a whole lot of us who are right of center.
Sarah appeals to many of us "right of center" people out in the country but not necessarily to the "right of center" inside the beltway elites. They suffer from of the same things as the liberal elites. Sarah Palin offers a paradigm shift away from the failed beltway thinking. They don't see it but we do. I believe the tea party folks are the largest pool of independent thinkers in the country today.
The Left can be quite "easy" if you want to have some fun.
I'm always very careful in what I say with my Liberal neighbors -- but it doesn't get me anywhere. I once said, "This unemployment situation is really something, huh?" My neighbor attacked me for hating Obama and said that I was a racist.
To another neighbor, I said, "This economy is really something, huh?" His reply: "Well, what do you expect with a moron in the White House? No idea what makes the economy go! No idea what real people do with their lives! It's no wonder the economy is a mess. And to think we put up with that jerk for eight years!! Well, now that Obama is in there, I think we'll do OK."
You don't have to say much at all. Some folks are all "loaded up" and ready to go!
