The key to the ultimate effectiveness of a documentary like “The Undefeated” is more than just how many people see it or even who those people are. Certainly that matters to some degree, but so does how the very existence of the documentary changes the national political conversation. Naysayers of the “The Undefeated” dismiss the film’s impact by telling us that only Palinistas are going to bother to buy tickets. In other words, since the film preaches to the choir there will be no new converts. Intentionally or not, that’s a fairly simplistic declaration that doesn’t take into account how the film will impact the political news narrative — an impact that’s already apparent to anyone paying attention.
Thanks to the overwhelming publicity the film has already generated (along with the fortuitous combination of the email dump), for the first time since Palin arrived on the national scene her impressive record as the Chief Executive of Alaska is finally getting some serious media attention. Today in the Daily Caller, Rick Manning has an excellent piece that touches on this very subject. In an editorial titled “Will the New Palin Movie Sway Voters?,” he closes with this:
Right now, most Americans are desperate for a leader who will be unfazed by the entrenched big-government culture that pervades D.C. regardless of which political party is in charge.
Most Americans look at the crowd of Republican candidates for the presidency and yearn for someone with guts, charisma and accomplishments.

“impressive record as the Chief Executive of Alaska”
I’m sorry, but that is silly and only hurts your argument.
Silly, is it......well, prithee, enlighten us.
I guess every governor should walk away from their job so they too can have an “impressive record”. That statement is laughable.
Lets all quit our jobs so we can be considered good at them. Indeed, the new American work ethic.
If this documentary is about Palin’s time as governor it must be nominated for an Oscar for best short film.
What argument might that be?
She had an excellent record.
I don’t recall her pulling BS like voting “present”
You are an idiot with no understanding of what happened.
I don’t lower my standards to Obama. I expect more from conservatives than that. You can’t have an excellent record for a job left undone.
It is like saying you have a great contractor who builds half a house.
So if Al Qaeda gets tough, or the Chi-Coms get tough can we expect a President Palin to quit?
This is the next movie I will see.
Can’t wait.
America (and FR Trolls)...
Resistance is Futile!
Prepare to be Liberated!
I have alread found 3 articles that call Sarah Palin "Alaska's chief executive". One from CNN, the other from TIME. And one quoting Huckabee.
When Sarah Palin was Alaska's chief executive,
Huckabee: Palin E-mails Revealed A “Perfectly-Competent Chief Executive”
And that was just the first few that I found.
Your ignorance is showing! She had an 80% approval rating because she did what she said she was going to do and that was to reform and bring about ethic standards within the corrupt state of Alaska - she did this mainly through AGIA and ACES programs plus she cut government. Prove me where I’m wrong
She handed over the reigns to LT Gov Sean Parnell with the greatest confidence that he would execute the agenda that they had worked on and shielded the state of Alaska from paying for frivolous lawsuits by paying for them personally.
Yeah, she really sucks
I’m all for being liberated. I just don’t thank Palin will be around when it happens. Ronald Reagan never quit.
Then if she becomes President I guess we better pray she picks a strong Vice President. Not exactly a high endorsement.
We’re waiting!!!!! Put up or shutup! She accomplish every promised goal that she promise before she left office, all you donis sprout talking points but yet to prove that she didn’t what she set out to do while in office
*********Palin Ping*********
Of course you know all that, but just enjoy playing the fool, I guess.
Someone has to handle the troll and his two sentence talking points line given to him to type
So she did more in a week than most governors can do in four years? Do you really want me to take this argument seriously?
I guess if all she wanted to accomplish was to get on TV with Kate Gosslin then she was a successful executive.
