Sarah Palin will not only help to re-launch Jay Leno’s second stint as The Tonight Show host but will serve as an example for other conservatives and those leaders in the Tea Party Patriot movement that late night can be a welcome home for its supporters and viewers.

There are of course the naysayers on the left coast who believe that Jay Leno’s booking of Sarah Palin on The Tonight Show in such a high visibility slot only gives credence and support for a possible positioning of a run for the presidency in 2012 as well as a confirmation, of sorts, of the array of traditional values that she and conservatives hold dear.

Yet what is startling for some is the possibility that again, Sarah Palin is showing that it is...

I’ll bet that Letterman blindsided Romney. He’s not ready to go head to head with Palin. People will compare book sales and ratings and find him wanting.

[Vaquero]

Nah, it’s pretty standard Leno tactic. Mock someone mercilessly in the monologue, then kiss their butt when they’re on the show.

better than the smarmy venom of Letterman.

[excopconservative]

WHEN is she on....

Next Tuesday night

[Gene Eric]

>> Both need the exposure.

Both?

[Impy]

Will they have to cull commies out of the audience?

[onyx]

Are you going?

She should bring 3 or 4 clips of highlights from the old Tonight Show with Jay Leno of Jay telling Palin jokes. She should then unload a string of Leno jokes and say “Now, we’re even.”

LETTERMAN's "TOP 10 Reasons Willard Mitt RomneyCARE is a LOSER"

10. RomneyCARE's endless shapeshifting, flip-flopping and taking 3 sides to every issue.
9. RomneyCARE's appointments of corrupt, liberal pro-criminal DNC judges, by completely overlooking all GOP candidates
8. RomneyCARE's usurping Mass Constitution to impose gay marriage without a vote
7. RomneyCARE's endless wussiness to criticism using tears, fabricated 'religious persecution', and endless claiming that if you do not vote for him you "hate Mormons".
6. RomneyCARE's coverup of the "Big Dig" for donations.
5. RomneyCARE's bankruptcy of Massachusetts for his RomneyCARE imposed without a vote.
4. RomneyCARE's endless targetting of other GOP candidates and their children
using surrogates, rather than being a man and doing it in the open, himself.
3. RomneyCARE's use of fake law enforcement officers (caught in at least two states).
2. RomneyCARE's claiming he is a "winner" when he buys votes, cheats, and whines.
1. RomneyCARE’s bad judgment with endless whacking GOP candidates, by pushpolls
and faked reports, even competing on TV (Letterman vs. Leno)

Did Jay Leno go rogue in picking Sarah Palin as Tonight Show guest?

Only a few more days and we'll know; won't we...

[Elsie]

Without Leno, no one would take Governor Sarah Palin seriously as a candidate. If she wins, it will only be because of Leno's help.

Without Mitt, no one would take Scott Brown seriously as a candidate. If she wins, it will only be because of Mitt's help.

[The Wizard]

thank you

[Friendofgeorge]

If Romney knew Sarah was going to be on Leno (for sure he did) then it really shows him in a bad light.Not to mention Letterman is pure evil

[marktwain]

“I am all in for Palin, but this article is kind of stupid, isn't it? “

Not really. It shows that the kingmakers in the MSM are losing their hold on the levers of power.

[Kansas58]

I guess you are right.

“Know your enemy” is always good counsel -—

[RonDog]

Are you going?

I will be there. :o)

Shhhhhh.

We don't want to tip off the anti-Palin folks over at DU.

Private message to L.A. FReepers to follow, soon...
