No wonder the RATs are scared to death of her.

And to all those pundits on the right who said after she left the governor's office that she was toast: nyah nyah, you were sooooooo wrong.

Sarah is now presenting the alternatives and counter-proposals that her spineless and voiceless GOP “colleagues” should have been doing all along. Third parties never go anywhere, but I’d be happy to see Sarah take over the gutless party once known as the Republicans!

Our Sarah does it again!
My respect for her grows each day.

My only question is - if there is tort reform is their guaranteed lowering of health care costs?

Guarantee is a strong statement. I can't even guarantee that a large volcanic eruption won't start in the next few hours and prevent the sun from rising in the morning. But logically, I would take the odds of my life savings in a bet that the sun will rise.

Logically, it lowers costs by a good amount and will drive down costs. To what extent can be debated but there is already data suggesting it is a good amount.

Here is something else to consider along the lines of tort reform. Class Action Lawsuits should be made illegal for most issues. Class action lawsuits serve little to no purpose except to make lawyers rich, make evil corporations pay and to add extra warnings labels telling us not to eat Bengay.

I was recently involved in a class action lawsuit (solicitation in the mail where I could only opt out). Turns out we won the multimillion dollar lawsuit against a credit card company. I actually received a check FOR $0.88. That's right, I was awarded under a dollar when the real about was suppose to be something like $3.50 for the wrong the credit card company did to me (?). It was a card a had a long time ago and apparently I was charged an illegal fee. Guess who collected big time.

The same crap happens with the major drug companies and medical vendors. Class action lawsuits need regulation too (tort reform).

I’ve become addicted to checking her Facebook page. BTW, her Facebook numbers are 812,622, an increase of 12,000 in the past 2 days. Once this new op/ed gets circulation that number will increase substantially. Look for her to hit 1 million by mid-September. If she does appear at the 9-12 event, look for her numbers to skyrocket past the 1 million mark. I know a lot of people have been critical of her using Facebook, but it is a great platform to use to bypass the MSM altogether, and she has a rather large audiance on Facebook, and from there it spreads here, and to a multitude of pro-Palin blogs. This has already been picked up by the MSM, and by tomorrow it will probably dominate the news cycle for the entire weekend, exposing millions more people to her common sense approach to healthcare. Add energy independence, and her following will really start growing, beyond the control of either the RNC or DNC.
