ping!
lol. Based on what?
I am with Wasilla No. 22! I'm voting for the "Barracuda"!
If Palin secures the nomination, I’m sure there will be a Soros funded, MSM propelled “independent” challenger on the ballot in most states.
The only way the Baraqqi regime can repeat is to achieve a Clintonian plurality win.
Should make for an exciting 2012.
There is a lot to this article, with a lot of interesting facts and figures but for the moment I want to mention this phrase that caught my eye: “the insipid John McCain”.
From now on that’s how I’m going to refer to him.
I'm really not trying to be insulting, but a lot of people who dislike Palin are just ignorant. My brother is an example. He's a Moonbat, and he would never vote for any Republican, but he is still instructive here -- he hates Palin because she is so stupid! Why does he think that? Mostly because Tina Fey can see Russia from Sarah's house.
Plenty of Independents may have a negative view of Sarah, but I am convinced that this is baseless and can be easily overcome. The more important thing to realize is that Palin may be the first Republican to generate fervor among a large part of the GOP base since Reagan. I grant that Bachmann, Cain, or Demint could do the same. I say nothing against them. I just think Palin has a real star quality and gets everyone pumped up (one way or another). We have a history of Doles, Bushes and McCains. I'd like to see a candidate who gets people really pumped up. Those guys didn't.
In the past I've liked Duncan Hunter, and Fred Thompson. But they never caught fire. Because they put people to sleep. Sarah won't put anyone to sleep, and I like her principles.
Obama is responsible for the LARGEST tax cut to the middle in the history of our country. NO one can argue this FACT!
Of course the reason they are paying less taxes is they don’t have a job.
“PALIN EFFECT”??!!
ROFLMAO!!!
Heck, look to Free Republic for her unelectability!
Some FR "conservatives" attack her non stop, while correctly witholding comment on other potential candidates.
Watch what happens to their principles if the ticket ends up Palin/Bachmann or Bachmann/Palin!
Besides the Bradley Effect, looks like the Not On The Ballot Effect will come into play as well. A handful of states that require proof of presidential eligibility, and then Sarah being unopposed on those ballots, will drive some mighty negative press on the zero, and drive his numbers down in the states that still have him on their ballot.
I gave some money to Hunter. He did get the whole border thing on the table I think during the debates which was worth the money right there. I grew up in Minnesota so that caused me to look at Bachmann in the first place (and keep watching) - and she seems like a good conservative.
Cain and Demint who? (I know, I need to get out more - just like most of the other voters).
Based on the fact that Huckabee isn’t running, and he is usually in the top three with Palin and Romney in most polls.
The majority of his supporters have said Sarah is their second choice, which makes sense since they tend to be evangelical Christians, a group that is also very favorable to Governor Palin.
If you take any of the recent polling data and a majority (probably 60% if not more) of Huckabee’s support to the Palin column, she will win in a landslide.
She is in far better shape than the media will let on. They know it, that’s why they have to attack her relentlessly..it’s not working for them though.
Another great piece from Brices Crossroads!
Thanks for letting me share it!
Do we want a president who will crush the head of world socialism? Then, my friends, elect Sarah Palin in 2012.
Thank you Brices Crossroads for your wonderful piece. For those of you who wonder why Sarah Palin will win the GOP nomination:
1)Mike Huckabee is NOT running in 2012 (several interviews over the past year, Mrs. Huckabee not giving Huck the thumbs up, Huck’s 7 figure gig at Fox, their new heavily mortgaged home in Florida, a June cruise to Alaska, Huck announcing he will not be making any decision to the latter part of summer if he decides to run at all, Huck cancelling his presidential PAC but keeping his normal PAC open, Vander Plaats in Iowa had to backtrack about Huck showing up in June to speak). Need I go on.
With Huckabee out of the mix several polls have shown that Palin would benefit the most from his non-entry into the 2012 race and that she would have a substantial lead over the rest of the field.
Does anyone really believe the greatest majority of Huck’s evangelical supporters are going over to Romney?
2)By virtue of the Rasmussen poll released just over 2 weeks ago, Sarah Palin now leads among support from evangelical Christian voters and also among TP supporters. Yes there is overlap but each constituency roughly represents 40% of the entire GOP primary electorate.
3)Sarah Palin has announced she is hiring a chief of staff for SarahPAC. As we all know eventually she will be moving him over for her presidential campaign. Once Palin proves to the world she is a serious player the skeptics who think she is not will be totally on board.
4)Palin’s speech at the Reagan Library changed a lot of people’s minds imho as she came across as very presidential in that speech and not so energetic as she is in rallies.
5)And finally did you see the results of the American Spectator poll now being held over the last few days. Of a field of 20 horse race entrants and the OTHER category she now leads with about 51% of the vote with Ron Paul the nearest at 5.5% of the vote. She has over a 45% lead over her next opponent. If that isn’t dominance what is?
And by the way you can only vote once in the poll and you must be human to vote.
Oh yea, I remember us talking about that.
