~~PING!

Not sure what to make of this. Candidates for the presidential primaries will begin declaring about a year to fifteen months from now.

...watch the left start to chime,...see see she sold out her backers. (Little do they know)

I hope she does a show on exposing media bias.

Either way, the lefties are apoplectic over it already.

Here’s what one idiot wrote on the NYTimes blog:

“Is she going to contribute tips on how to spot Russians from Alaska or tips on how to shoot moose from helicopters? I can think of few people less qualified to contribute anything of import than Sarah Palin. Although lack of qualifications have never seemed to bother Fox News before.”

Do lefties get anymore ignorant?

BTW, Palin is a journalism major.
She’s more qualified than half the people at MSDNC or in the MSM

[jim from nebraska]

Can not wait to see her on imus. He talks her down but if he meets her his view will change.

Let’s not forget Sarah Palin has some journalism experience too.

“In the fall of 1984, she transferred to the University of Idaho, where she majored in journalism with an emphasis in broadcast news.”

Seen in libtard enclaves all across the country....

They’re so laughable and predictably
juvenile in their vitriol and snarkiness.

Thankfully, she’s more than tough enough
to withstand probably the most virulent
and hateful derangement syndrome we’ll
ever see to date.

LOL .. thinking now about Olbertheedgemann.

[Will88]

Lol, one of the best cartoons I’ve seen in a while.

"Not sure what to make of this. Candidates for the presidential primaries will begin declaring about a year to fifteen months from now. "

I'm sure she has some sort of "escape clause" in her contract, should she decide to run for office.

Probably not a bad move. It has the potential to address a couple of elements. Firstly, falsely or not, there is a rumor/general opinion that Palin isn't exceedingly intelligent. This will provide a platform to prove that one way or the other. Secondly, one of the likely 2012 RNC candidates is likely to be Mike Huckabee. One of his downfalls in the previous election was that no one knew who he was. Since he has a show his name recognition has gone way up...and he has shown himself to be personable. Many people vote for people they like, not necessarily the ones that’ll do the best job. Bottom line, I think this could make or break Palin as a candidate depending on how she does...and personally, I believe she'll do very well.

See a young Sarah on TV news sports..

I think it’s a net-negative for a future run for the nomination. It’s likely that Fox will be the only network giving her fair coverage. Now that will be slightly tainted, due to this contract.

Of course it may be that she has no intention of running for POTUS in 2012 in which case, no problem. If it’s her most interesting job offer she should go for it.

I am starting to think she’s not running in 2012. That will make a lot of heads at Free Republic explode.

[Zuben Elgenubi]

That is a terrific cartoon.

“Do lefties get anymore ignorant?”

YES, by leaps and bounds!!!!

Probably so, but I expect these media jobs cause most eventual candidates to declare later than they would have otherwise. That'll probably delay J. D. Hayworth several weeks or months if challenges Juan McCain.
