Appearing on 'Anderson Cooper 360' (weekdays, 10 PM ET on CNN) rocker, hunter and outspoken Tea Party supporter Ted Nugent heaped praise upon Sarah Palin, but also said she hasn't yet convinced him she has what it takes to be president. "(Palin's) coming from the street, she's coming from the we-the-people rank-and-file, she makes sense when she talks, she says all the right things, she's sincere, she's knowledgeable , she's articulate, she's damn good-looking, plus she kills moose, how can you go wrong?" Nugent gushed. However, when Cooper pressed Nugent on whether Palin would make a good president, Nugent balked. "It's too early to tell. Right know, if we had a vote, I couldn't vote for Sarah Palin. And I love her. I love her madly, and I respect her." When somebody as naturally sympathetic to Palin as The Nuge doesn't believe he can vote for her, maybe it's time we stop talking about the former half-governor of Alaska as a viable presidential candidate.Ted Nugent 'Loves' Sarah Palin, But Wouldn't Vote for Her for President (VIDEO)
That’s what you think....
One of the best debate smackdowns ever was Cheney vs Breck Girl Edwards in 04.
I understand your point. I just see us falling apart as usual.
Nugent isn’t yet convinced, that’s fair enough. Lots of people aren’t convinced but they will be when the campaigns begin.
Ted keeping his powder dry?
Primary season before 2008 election:
“Barack Obama is not qualified to be President”
— Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton, Joe Biden, John Kerry, numerous democrats, etc.
I'm not conviced about Palin or anybody yet. I think most people two years out aren't conviced about anybody yet.
Ted isn't a "hater".
Are you?
Before I let what TED thinks sway my vote, I want to see him walk on water. Who died and left HIM in charge, anyhow? So he’s pro-second amendment and a few other things. I’ll probably get some flack for saying this, but I’ve TRIED to listen to his artistic efforts, and can only say that to me it’s an awful lot of NOISE and very little true music! If I had to categorize it, I’d call it: “Music To Have A Nervous Breakdown by!”
Hey is this pissant?
>>Its a gimme.<<
That is GREAT! A thread Mulligan! LOL! :)
This time it’s called you bet america. So I will bet on a winner and not a quieter.
Exactly. I like Palin a lot and will vote for her if she is the nominee, but she hasn't even declared that she's in the running. There might be someone undeclared that I would think was an even better candidate. Ted seems like a very cautious man that doesn't shoot at the first thing that comes into his range.
Nope - but I'm sure the COPs will be swarming, soon.
Nugent isn’t yet convinced, that’s fair enough. Lots of people aren’t convinced but they will be when the campaigns begin.

Has Sarah Palin made anyone change their mind? Americans have seen her campaign and settled on their opinion. What is different 2, 3 or 4 years later ?
If she didn’t think she was qualified to be president in 2008, it was an offer that should have been refused. Despite all the protests from Republicans that Palin was only running for VP - if you are running for vice president, you are running for president.
Weren’t you a Mitt wit supporter in 2008?
Well, if you KNOW that, then who is it?
Nugent said about every nice thing you could say about another human short of saying he was ready for her to be President at this moment.
Whats he get for it?
Ted sucks, I don’t care what he thinks, his music stinks, he’s an idiot, his kids are stoopid, his wife’s a hussy, he’s a two bit rock goof, he hunts hamsters, you name it.
Go figger? LOL
So if she gets the nomination are you going to vote Rat, vote third party in protest, or stay home in protest?
BS, never was never will be. But I was one of those that said I would never vote for insane mccain and I didn’t change my mind.
Against the socialists and the RINOS, it is enough that she LOVES America.
Given the opportunity to serve the country- her policies will be pro-America, pro-democracy, pro-capitalism and anti-terrorists.
Fur Shur I’m still not convinced FDR had what it took to be President ~ but he won the election 4 times.
