Palin has been palling it up with Rick Perry lately, so I am starting to wonder if Perry will get the “Palin Seal of Approval” out of the GOP candidates?
Wow, I was thinking the same thing.
I would ask: who cares about the discussion over whether a candidate has the ability to win? Why would a sincere political discussion make this the prominent issue? How about discussing whether the candidate has the ability to lead?
Statements about whether a potential candidate “can win” are usually disguised messages intending to convince supporters that the candidate isn’t worth voting for.
The “I don’t think she can win” line carries with it the hidden message “I don’t think she is worth supporting.” It’s a deliberate attempt to detract from a candidate’s support base while seeming to be an innocent, unbiased statement of opinion.
This is the underhanded, cowardly tactic used by well-known ruling class pundits and trolls on this website. They did it with Christine O’Donnell. My advice to them: pick an ideology that doesn’t require deceit and fraud in order to be advanced.
How about constitutional conservatism. Works a lot better than the progressivism of Democrats or the self promotion-ism of Rove and Krauthammer.
You have it nailed. Perfectly.
It’s Wednesday afternoon. I am wondering who has today’s assignment?
Maybe the “commission’s report” will steal some of the thunder?
Sarah Palin is genuine and honest. She speaks her mind and knows precisely the patriotic, pro-life and Constitutional policies she stands for and what she wants to say.
She is fearless. Her enemies from the democrat side have fired at her since the day she was named to run as the VP, but now their guns are empty. They firing blanks that the public has heard before. No more shock, no more ‘yikes.’ Of course she will never change veryone’s minds, but she need only persuade a majority that she is better for the country than the Marxist.
I knew the GOP establishment was going to try to stop her when “it” didn’t step-up to defend her during the ‘08 campaign. Those folks had hopes that she would return to the governor’s office in Alaska, never to be heard from again.
Well, the democrat-Marxist machine wasn’t done with her. They had to make certain that she would never become the first woman president, so they continued their frivolous lawsuits allowed under Alaska law, until they had successfully racked-up over $500K worth of personal debt again her, and with that, they unleashed Sarah Cuda America... (God willing) #45.
I think you read more into my comment than I stated. I said that she would need to take a pay cut - you cannot deny this is true. I did not say or imply that she would not take a pay cut. She is a true Patriot.
I also said she is in a perfect role. She is building the base, attacking the RINOs, and pretty much flying under the radar screen of the Main Stream media critics, who will savage her and her family if she runs. She currently has all the upside, and none of the downside.
That said, she has my vote, support and money if she decides to run.
I believe I said she is anointed as a leader. She clearly demonstrates that leadership and courage now, so I don’t consider it a prediction, but recognition of a role that is extant. Whether that translates to the Presidency, we shall see. I don’t see anyone else at this point prepared to take the mantle from her.
I’m not a prophet. I’m an evangelical. She is too, by the way.
