Listening to these TV morons talk about a woman for VP and not mentioning Sarah is insulting to her and to us.....
Bill Crystal climbing over his chair with Neal Cavuto to avoid suggesting SARAH for VP made me sick, and I have now sworn off him and the weakly standard.....
In fact, as the former VP she should have had the party's backing for president, and is the only one who represents the American people.....
Why are we not "excited" by Romney.....it's not because he isn't s decent man who absolutely will be a fine president, but it's because America wanted Sarah Palin, and IMHO she is the only "exciting" choice for VP and what she would bring to the Romney campaign is not possible to over state
And man would I be floored and pleased if he chose her
You, me and millions more!
I am a “non traditional” (almost 50 year old) student at a major SE University. The other day one of my stupid professors said, “Here is an idea that even Sarah Palin can understand”. To my surprise (and delight) NO ONE laughed. He even said, “That was a joke” and still no one laughed. I loved it!!! The joke is, idiot, that Sarah Palin is too smart for someone like YOU to understand what she’s saying.
I’ll utter that which must not be uttered.
Sarah is more intelligent, more experienced, and much more moral than is the Cretin-in-Chief.
Period.
There is no argument.
She is smarter than they are and makes them look like the morons they are.
Those that become journalists are far from being the brightest.
Because sadly there is a greater likelihood that Mitt Romney will choose as his running mate that orangutan from the Clint Eastwood movies than choose Sarah. So commentators will spend no time on that.
Humblegunner with sandwich joke in...3...2...1...
“And man would I be floored and pleased if he chose her.”
Not a chance. Fooled her once, and left a daggar in her back. You’ll note that she never utters Romney’s name unlessed asked, and always changes the subject away from Romney and towards ABO....lolololol
None of them are afraid of Palin. Have you heard anyone in the Republican party suggest Palin for VP? Has Romney ever suggested he has considered her for VP? Absolutely not. For good reason. It has nothing to do with the media. It has to do with Romney and the GOP.
A lot of people say picking Palin would be a mistake. I think it would be a bold statement. Obama was an unknown 4 years ago. Now people know what he stands for. And they also know that much of the negative stuff said about Sarah Palin was untrue. Those who enthusiastically chose Obama in 2008 are switching sides this time.
I say put Sarah Palin on the ticket, and the people will choose her over the Obama/Biden team. It will also help in getting people to hold their noses in selecting Romney.
You know that Bill Krystol is a RINO. He and Mitt and all of their liberal republican friends hate Sarah Palin because she is one of us and not one of them.
You are so right, Forty Niner. She never mentions him. He never mentions her. They each have their reasons.
1) Picking a VP is just like being in a band & going on tour. If you're the headliner, never pick a band to open for you if you think they are better than you and/or you think they will outshine you. That only leads to less popularity for you.
2) Palin doesn't want the VP slot for much the same reason she chose not to run for president - a loss equals a big blow to the gravy train of speaking fees, TV appearances, reality shows, book sales, etc.
As a former rabid Sarah-supporter, I hate to break it to you but the Palin brand is damaged, probably forever. That is probably the reason she didn’t run.
The reality tv shows, the horrible way the McCain camp threw her to the wolves, the resigning as Gov. the long, long campaign tease. Pile them up and she’s poison as a candidate, at least for now. There is NO WAY Romney puts her on the ticket. ABSOLUTELY NO WAY.
I know lots of people still love her and hang on her every word, but it’s over, they still can’t accept it.
Hey, they didn't mention Jesus either.
I understand Your Sarah has a higher rank than Jesus, but omission is still a slap in the face.
He'd make a great VP. Whenever a GOP member goes 'rino' on us, you just say, 'Right turn, Clyde.' [WHAP!]
Completely agree. If you're a journalist or television reporter, I should NEVER know what side of the fence your opinion lies for any given story.
Tell me THE FACTS.......I will decide for myself.
A vote for Romney or Obama is a vote for the Progressives so I’m voting for Sarah in November!
Anyone care to join me?
If she made sandwiches the way she executed her elective terms..
I’d have half a sandwich.
She may yet attain more fame. Let’s see her make the whole sandwich.
And then she would have more fame.. and credentials for making a sandwich.
You betcha.
they know the dirt..they know the “game” on each and every other politician that comes before them. they frankly could write or tape the interview ahead of the actual interview...and it would be no less “real”...except with Sarah.
Living in Alaska, it was hard not to run into Saran Palin during her incumbency, even for us up here in Fairbanks. She remembered me, by face if not by name. Her political opposition crucified her with manufactured lies and charges. If she were to run, I’d vote for her in a heartbeat. She is a powerful voice where she is, but I wouldn’t wish for her to run that devastating political gauntlet again.
[ Why are we not “excited” by Romney..... ]
Its because he is the inventor of Romney-care running against the inventor of Obama-care.. thats why!....
Only an idiot would fail to see the “set-up” here...
The republican party is being “GUIDED”... manipulated..
YES... I’m talking about YOU...
You are so right and there are still a myriad of reasons left unspoken as to why she would not be chosen.
Romney needs an exciting legislator as veep. There are very few ways to spell that correctly.

Hey Humblegunner. As always, it is good to see you.
Palin needs to run for Senator against Begich in 2014 or Moosecowski in 2016..
She will run that department well, giving us a real Energy/Environmental Policy.
In doing so, she'll earn the country's respect. If the timing is right, she'll be our first female President.
I promise you she will never make you a sandwich, whole, half or otherwise.
I love Sarah to bits, but I don’t want to see her take a back seat to Romney (ugh!). I want her in the #1 seat, and it ain’t happening this year.
I think it would be a mistake for Palin to accept if he asked.
For one thing, it would tarnish her credibility. McCain was bad enough, but Romney is and has been a functional and effective liberal Democrat for his entire political career, advocating all the things Palin opposes. He believes, for example, in man-caused global warming, whereas Palin considers it "snake oil science." As his running mate, how much respect would she lose by zipping her mouth shut on that issue? Tons, that's how much.
For another thing, Vice Presidents are almost always reduced to objects of national ridicule, a popular national passtime; it seems to be part of the VP's role. The earliest that Palin could realistically be considered as a presidential candidate would be 2020, after eight years of being derided ala Dan Quayle.
The trolls on FR (quickly banished) that carp about her ability to make money giving speeches (as every national politician does) and being a Fox News commentator (for a seven-figure salary) is another example of how the left and their media water-carriers marginalize a politician they fear and loath. It's right out of the Alinski playbook and, to some extent, has worked at keeping Sarah Palin from engaging in electoral politics at a time when she is needed and would be welcomed by millions, should she ever chose to run. However, it has not silenced her and for that, I'm grateful. I also have a tiny hope that Sarah Palin will surprise us all at the GOP convention in August. How, I'm not sure, but she'll be there and she will not be marginalized, then.
I regret her lack of skills.
Perhaps there are courses that might help her.
so the bully pulpit holds no sway
so says you
Palin’s path to the White House needs to include a term in the Senate or on the Cabinet. This would go a long way to regain the moderate & indep vote she may have once had but lost when she quit the gov’s office (which I personally think she had to do).
True. IIRC, read a story about Roy Orbison (before he became well known) in England, once opening a gig for the Beatles. After he was done and crowds reaction to him, the Beatles want to know who in the hell was the idiot that put him in for the warm up.
LOL...she make more money then you can ever dream of making.
Does she threaten you Texas "manhood" so much"
My money says she's a better marksman then you, dork.
Common you little freaking coward, call me a molester of children and little animals again, freaking pos coward.
You’re cute when you grasp for relevance based upon others.
Isn’t there anything you’ve done yourself which might even tend toward not being a fag?
Hmmn, as Reggie Jackson once said, (paraphrasing) nobody boos a nobody.
LOLOL!!! {^)
LV Ron, your own marksmanship ain't bad, either!!! {^)
Nope, in Realpolitik, a vote for anyone but Romney, is a vote for Obama.
.....and you refer to me as a fag?
LOL...look in the mirror.
Proverbs 6:16 These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: [17] A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, [18] An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, [19] A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.
So do crack dealers and high-end whores.
Does she threaten you Texas "manhood" so much"
If she be threat English like you do, she be dangermouse.
My money says she's a better marksman then you, dork.
You think she's really a man? Whoa.
Common you little freaking coward, call me a molester of children and little animals
You might want to knock that stuff off.
Most people frown on that kind of stuff.
;)
Still can’t give it up?
They are both avowed Progressives. A vote for a Progressive is a vote for the other Progressive and vice versa.
