Sarah has initiated a brilliant flanking manuever and counter attack against the left,

Good analysis, Jeff. This girl's gone hunting before and, as prey in the media's sights, she's stepped out-of-sight which should make them very nervous.

The grizzly analogy is a good one. A wounded grizzly is even better. :^)

And how wounded might she be? Let's start with some McCain folks doing some backstabbing. Followed by Letterman(ure) taking pot shots at her and her children. Followed by a sleazy magazine article, followed by untold numbers of suppos-ed conservatives questioning the motives behind her resignation, all on top of unabating ethics charges proven false.

Any hunter of dangerous game will tell you how wounding an animal changes everything. In an instant, you can become "the hunted".

The MSM, the Left, and others have taken their 'shots' and missed. If Sarah has been wounded, she'll take time to heal and likely return when it's to her advantage. Perhaps her biggest wound came when America elected a Marxist Radical Street Thug over what she had envisioned for this country. The rest are mere flesh wounds.

The Left has been poaching conservtives for quite a while. They bagged a Quayle. Conveniently borked Bork. Justice Thomas barely made it by the skin of his, well, skin. They actually put a bullet in Ronald Reagan.

These poachers are bent on obliterating conservatives. They hunt from a train and slaughter any 'game' that dares share their 'space'. Youngin's are fair game too, apparently.

Given that we're faced with annihilation in this contest with sadists of every stripe, color, and cable channel, we need to consider our response very carefully. We need to solicit the support of the bushmen who know the importance of balance and harmony in the greater scheme of Nature's plan. Once out of balance, there's no going back and much death will result. Nature doesn't screw around, she kills until equilibrium (balance) is re-established. (Once conservatives are gone, she'll start killing liberals by the millions 'cause she has to. Gots your thing on?).

By 'bushmen', I refer to all of us little people with a spear (money). We will have to pony-up for those who are truly worthy of support as conservatives. We have to work to prevent the extinction of conservatives as a species.

A true conservative is easily recognized: they'll rise against everything the Left stands for (making themselves a target, but..) and we should be behind them every step of the way with our spears (money).

Look, the Left owns education and higher learning, they own the media, they have control over 2/3 of our government. They're running two major car manufacturers, are big on Wall Street, want to dictate medical care and how much energy it takes to run your home (while promoting windmills and solar-wtf?).

The gist is that we have about one last big battle left before Mother Nature kicks in. If we can't gain some ground and must raise the white flag, sure, we'll get creamed, but the adherents of the Left will suffer a much worse fate. She'll drop the hammer on them like never seen before- might even be a nuclear exchange, who knows. I say F'em. Serves 'em right.

“Palin’s unconventionality and authenticity is the key to her appeal.”

I agree with you, Sarah will be one of the forces that moves the conversation to discuss where this country is headed. She has the appeal to get good candidates into the House (and Senate) during the 2010 cycle.

She can build her base and IOU’s such that she can shoot for POTUS in 2012, play second banana or even wait until 2016. She has time on her side now if she can get the GOP on her side and off her back.

As a single man, I wish there were more Sarah Palins in the world. That’s a good picture.

Peggy Noonan, Frum, assorted alleged “conservative” writers, local talk show folk...

I have really had it with the arrogance on the left as well as by these “conservatives”.

President Obama, call off your attack dogs!

He can't, they are not his dogs, he is theirs.
