What if we told Sarah we would supply free of charge 20 Granny Nanny types to help with the kids, household chores, etc, 10 Chefs, and 100 ex-military security police, ex-cops, sheriffs, etc, for security around the clock and ask her to reconsider?! : )

I betcha' we would have lots of volunteers.

My wife and I were discussing that exact scenario yesterday.

If Newt truly does begin to fall, it's going to increase the likelihood that Mitt will carry the nomination with a plurality of the primary vote. That situation would create a tidal wave of calls for Sarah to get in.

Americans will be so desperate for a real leader, that they'll offer her every support and back-up imaginable.

This is the time when canidates are being vetted and found to be the good, bad and the ugly all rolled into one imperfect human being. For some, it is a total emotional meltdown process. For others it is a more rational process.

“Just went back to the past and pulled up Palin’s 2008 speech. Watched snippets of it. Made me smile “

I recorded it that night on to DVR. Glad I did, and glad I kept it. Piper wetting down Trig’s hair has got to be the most touching unrehearsed moment in political election history. Coming in second was her Soccer Mom/Pit Bull with Lipstick joke. I was a Palin fan long before McCain picked her. I knew what she was capable of, and she showed the world what she had that night.

Really, I know a big concern for Sarah running is her Family. Hey Sarah, we're here to help! We really would offer nanny, chef, security, garderner - whatever services - roofing, plumbing, you name it. Just say the word and hundreds, thousands will volunteer, 24/7! A true community We the People effort. Now that's real community organizing! Reminds me of neighbor helping neighbor in Iowa where I grew up.

Zero enthusiasm.

Last year, I was hopping with excitement and energy... more than in decades, due to the whole grassroots Tea Party movement. But this year, it’s the exact polar opposite. I have absolutely zero enthusiasm, zero faith, zero optimism. The primary season has been dreary and the candidates totally uninspiring. It’s like there pretty much a coordinated effort this year by the GOP establishment, the Karl Roves, the GOP House leadership, the FoxNews talking-heads, to just pour cold water on every little spark of mid-American, Tea Party, Palin-wing energy, all in order to grease the skids for their boy Mitt Romney.

As it is, I’ve just become little more than a dispassionate spectator in regards to this primary season, watching the farcical proceedings as if it were something of a combination of a demolition derby and a Marx Brothers movie.

He might win Iowa... maybe... but he will not make it any further. Fox and CNN were already painting him with racism and connections to the KKK yesterday. I know nothing about any of that... but Hannity brought it up yesterday.

Obama will win. Doesn't matter which of the seven dwarves emerges as the GOP nominee.

We didn't get what we might want in the nominating contest but it's possible, however unlikely, we might get what we need. I simply don't trust this electorate to judge Obama on his objective record.

I do not think that Paul has a racist bone in his body... I have never read or heard anything that would make me tyhink so. He is very good on fiscal policy but he is insane on foreign policy.

Hannity was on it again today. Evidently some supporter posted something racist on Paul's website and Paul let it stay up. It was brought up in 2008 according to Hannity... but not much on it was ever reported. Look for it to come up in Iowa. romney certainly will push it.

There are indications the neither Senator Rubio nor Governor Jindal are natural born citizens, as their parents were not citizens at the time of their birth.

Easily: the Birther's crackpot theory is wrong. Breaking down their theory, Vittal calls "natural born citizen" also "native" which is important. Further, the first congress in its first full calendar year defined "natural born citizen" as something different than Vittal by adding children of citizen parents born overseas or simply outside the country. Also important since it means Vittal wasn't sacrosanct at all. This blows the theory completely apart: Congress can define what NBC means and native born is indistinguishable from NBC. Under our laws today Rubio and Jindal are native born and thus NBC. Would a Democrat object and not certify such an election forcing a constitutional crisis that could give us one of their own? Politically, they don't dare, particularly if it's another "historic" election of a non white male candidate. If it go to the courts, meaning they admit someone has standing to bring a case, the courts would most likely say anyone not naturalized or never a citizen (or no longer a citizen) meets the NBC requirement under current law.

It’s not out of the question but unlikely, as all delegates are awarded proportionally this primary, we may not have a candidate going in to the convention.

I have not been this excited about an election since my first time voting for Reagan in college. I could not be happier - except of course not having Candy Crowley as moderator of debate #2 - and Biden’s odd manic behavior. On with the Stop Obama Express, T minus 18 days.
