Who Is Clearly Out Of Her League.

Why, because she didn't have McCain's entire legislative history committed to memory? Give me a break...Considering both Couric and Gibbon (not typo), were playing gotcha, I think she did just fine.

I’ve enjoyed reading Kathleen Parker for a long time. Therefore, I can’t believe she wrote this. She is way too sensible. She had to have hired Thomas Oliphant to ghost it while she went on vacation.

So you wany=t more of the same ol” stuff? What is attractive with Palin is she doesn’t spew the same garbage as every other insider politition. So the response is she is out of her class? How “bouts she sees thing from a more grounded (like where most of us live) position. Maybe you think you would have a hard time dealing with leaders of other nations? Bet not. They are just people and when treated like people and not “leaders of Nations” they understand just fine. GO PALIN!!

Palin is certainly a better pick than Romney and I am LDS. Palin gives us inspiration and excitement. If Juan could just keep the train on the track, we could win this thing. The polls are tanking because Juan can’t keep his foot out of his mouth. Did he manage to get of another pitch for Andrew Cuomo yet today?

You know...that’s the reason I like Sarah Palin. She shouldn’t have to know everything about EVERY subject. Nobody does. She should just be herself. The problem with DC is that there are way too many know-it-alls of both parties running the show.
Personally I am getting very sick of this election! I can’t wait until it’s over. I wish they would put a law into effect that NOBODY can mention anything about the next presidential election for at least two (2) years!

Palin is out of her league? What did she do? Did she go to a White House meeting about the bail out and open her mouth and totally screw things up? Oh, wait - that was NOBAMA.

I’m also curious about anyone who says Palin is out of her league, who is in his or her league in the current quagmire?

Who Is Clearly Out Of Her League.

And which league would that be? The Ivy League?? If so, MORE POWER TO HER!

I've been hearing a number of people deride Governor Palin's executive experience saying "Our last President had executive experience, look where it got us". To which I would respond, "So what, the guy before that was such a smooth talker he could charm the pants off an intern, and look where THAT got us!!!"

Sarah Palin is an upfront person and what we have needed in a candidate.

I think handlers may have dialed her back a bit and
it is like making a right handed person write with their left hand.

I think some women when they get a little older become caddy and a little bitchy. Maybe she was having a hot flash or maybe her botax is effecting her brain. Kathleen what exactly qualifies you to make this judgment about Palin? You did not graduate with a degree in journalism nor did you graduate from a prestigious university. You have not been elected to public office nor have you run a business or a state. Your just another loud mouthed elitist.

That might be an exaggerated presumption. Having read these excerpts/quotes, I’m a little troubled, too. However, I don’t believe that 2 statements make a candidate. And Kathleen Parker might be exaggerating her anxiety.

I will say this much...the liberals and media have so lowered expectations for Palin, that basically all she has to do is show up for the debate on Thursday and be declared the winner. As long as she doesn’t make any major errors and doesn’t drool on herself while speaking, she should be declared the winner.

Suppose, for the sake of argument, Sarah Palin did exactly as Kathleen Parker suggests, and quits with the excuse that she wants to spend more time with her family. Would anybody, including Kathleen Parker, buy that story?

I mean, think it through, honey...

Palin out of her league? Well, I guess Parker doesn't quite grasp the concept of a Government of, by, and for the people. To Parker, those who are elected must come from some other source.

I think some women HATE her....DESPISE her...because of NOT ABORTING TRIG!!!

You got it.

There is an email running around the net condemning her daughter for not having one and asking for a donation to Planned Murderhood in her name. Lots of women with a bad secret pushing it...unfortunately some that I know who forwarded it to me.

She's the woman they didn't have the courage to be, and a reminder of the secret shame they feel.

Sarah couldn’t say anything period that some nasty left-wing elitist wouldn’t jump on. They criticize if she doesn’t talk to them and beat her up for every word.
