“...guts, cojones, and charactor.”

That’s Sarah alright. From the choir loft. So, in my lifetime, am I going to see her heroics beyond our choir, her Facebook page, her PAC, and FOX News?

We all look pretty smart on the team bench, among ourselves, but mastering the field requires showing up on an unfriendly field. When is that going to happen? Anybody know? When? Hmm? Really, when? As in how soon? Lots of us are waiting for a rematch between Sarah and the mean media. The Palin platitudes need to be over in November, when she should have her nuts and bolt policy hat on, willing to ratchet up her exposure beyond us in the choir, because by ourselves we can not nominate or elect her. The rest of the gang has to be impressed too.

Na, those who are rational know that all our candidates, no matter when they announce will have loads of primary debates, then Presidential debates before the President election. No Republican candidate expects to use platitudes all the way to election day.

That is reserved for the magic(D)candidate who will have a "nice" media and can say "yes we can" all the way to November.

Can't argue with that in general....but until she officially throws her hat in she can do, as a private citizen, anything she wants...silly to hold her to the same standard as a a known candidate. And it is hardly "sitting on the team bench" when she has already run as VP...been attacked with a venom and aggressiveness by her opponents that I've never seen before already...and come out smiling after each round. I know men who would have been in tears if they had to go through what she and her family has. (I mean look at the Mel Gibson tapes? What a baby.) I'm thoroughly impressed with her...and she gets better each day. Who knows? She may not even run. A lot can happen between now and 2012. I still say...guts...cajones and character...in spades...

Her goal is to reach the public, not impress the media. She is reaching Republicans right now with the highest approval of all potential candidates. This is the time to set the groundwork to get the Republican nomination, not win a general election. We have two years to do that.

If we are realistic we have to admit that voters don’t kick out an administration lightly. If in 2012, the economy has recovered, the world is at peace with the respect of the US at a high point, illegal immigration halted and unemployment below 5%, then Obama will be hard to beat. Given his policies, this is very unlikely, but it’s his administration that gets the report card.

Our job is to nominate a candidate who will take the fight to Obama, a person who will talk about his socialist and Marxist appointments, his glaring mistakes, and his failure to take action, his destruction of the free market, a person who will not back down for fear of losing their membership in the ruling class.

Socialism is based on lies. It can not stand up to the truth when confronted. Most of all we need a candidate who will speak the truth and confront the lies. Ronald Reagan did it and so will Sarah Palin.
