Since resigning from her Governorship last July, Sara Palin hasn’t made a false move.
This is surprising for someone who is more passionate than cautious and one reputed to be, well, you know, a dummy.
Her book tour went exceedingly well. She has received thousands of invitations to speak, notwithstanding her $100,000 price tag. She continues to raise huge sums of money for her sponsers and draw sellout crowds. Her policy announcements have been spot on whether delivered in her speeches interviews or Facebook posts.
Because of her ignominious charge of “death panels” to decry Obamacare, she more than anyone is responsible for the overwhelming majority now being opposed to Obamacare. Although Obama’s supporters denied such “death panels” at first, many experts now openly admit to them.
In foreign affair, she coined the Obama Doctrine as “coddling your enemies and alienating your friends.” This characterization is now commonplace. Palin also decried Obama’s statement that the US would not retaliate with nuclear weapons if the US were attacked by WMDs and suggested the U.S. was asking to be hit. When Obama, in his non-response, replied with “I really have no response to that. The last I checked, Sarah Palin is not much of an expert on nuclear issues.” And "What I would say to them is, is that if the secretary of defense and the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff are comfortable with it, I'm probably going to take my advice from them and not from Sarah Palin.” Palin came back, quick as a flash, sarcastically honoring "the vast nuclear experience that he acquired as a community organizer, part time senator and full time candidate.”

Story’s not there now. Just the headline.
Have not read the entire article but Palin must prepare herself for the worst smear campaign ever organized...perhaps worse than the Nixon era...be strong Sarah!

Yeah it’s going to be a 100 times worse than we have seen thus far I would imagine. I actually fear for her a lot because she’s a threat to much more than just Obama himself. She’s a threat to the entire system, including the old time boys club and I’m no feminist!
It’s going to be a real “all hands on deck” bring her down campaign. Media, government and maybe elements beyond these. But I guess I have no crystal ball. I hope for the best for her.
How much more can they possibly throw at her?
BUT she’s not a threat to the Armed forces, or the military, and they will be there for her, and that is a lot....
My point is that if JFK had had the military on his side, Dallas could not have happened.
I fault the McCain campaign staff for helping smear her, they have done nothing to help defend her. Having said that, neither has McCain. The way he has allowed Sarah to be treated without lifting his pinky to defend his one-time running mate is disgusting. I guess McCain got offended by bumper stickers that had her name in the bolder, bigger letters. Someone needs to remind them Sarah brought out more support for the Republican ticket than he did.

Such a great point. She above everyone else right now continually expresses her respect for them.
I disagree that she hasnt made a false move. Her descision to back McCain in Arizona is a false move.
Perhaps she can wok herself out of it, but she should have just stayed out of that race.
Not alot. They’re running on empty and they know it. She’ll have to watch for GOP dirty pool even more closely imho.
My major fear for her is that the party system will not be decomposed enough by 2012.
She is as much a threat to the GOP leadership as she is to Obama, and they know it.
She already been through HELL..... unlike most of the other potentials! They have looked through files, they have lied about her.....practically MSNBC almost every week has accused her of committing some type of crime.... ...All the media can best do is to call SARAH a dummy, a fake and drag out tina fey......the wind is on her back and the dems with the media are on the run having to defends themselves
In our annual TIME 100 issue we name the people who most affect our world

HEROES
ARTISTS

TIME 100 ALUMNAE
Sarah is the defacto face of the opposition. While others cower in their think-tanks and political cliques, Sarah is in the front lines.
