Extremely positive reason Number 4,300,194 to elect Ms Palin is

It's clear that today's spoiled brat, punk ideological issue of 1960s Marxist-Alinsky street/campus revolutionary rabble will, just as their ideological parents did, contrive to get minorities to take to the streets to confront the Man -- or in this case, the Woman. Or, maybe the "Uncle Tom," see below.

Good.

As the ideological parents cowered on campuses and in communes (often in cities' most expensive neighborhoods) there was plenty of violence but no revolution -- just utter humiliation and failure for the spoiled brats.

I thought then and I still think today that it's a mistake to let the brats go free back to their campuses, foundations, wherever lifestyles which include media jobs even more so today than in the 60s and 70s.

This time, put an end to it. Best to let the experts do it legally.

Stop leaving it for the children. Get it over with.

I think President Palin will do it. Ditto President West or President Cain, I bet.

Well you all do realize that if Palin runs for President, all the vetting will have been done and the MSM can turn their attention to vetting Obama! /S

"...he uncovers the messy reality beneath the glossy Palin myth."

Myth? More like near-mythical. Her real story is that amazing. This is from Jim Funkhouser, writing at the Tea Party Tribune blog:

"...a political analyst by the name of Richard Halpern was the person who talked Palin into running against a fellow Republican… in a primary… for Governor.

Now, in hindsight it’s easy to forget just how hard such an endeavor might be. Think for a moment about a sitting Republican Governor in your State. Let’s pick one just for fun, say, the Governor from Texas, Rick Perry. Imagine that in a hypothetical future campaign for reelection that someone from his own party decided to challenge him. Not a well-known figure mind you, but someone who as of this time has only a 10% name recognition; someone that no one even knows… even in Texas.

It gets worse. Imagine that the entire Republican Party in Texas is against such a challenge, and they are so against it that some officials actually call our unknown figure and threaten her. And add to this that the challenger has just resigned from the Texas oil and gas commission because she is claiming it is a corrupt political rubber stamp for special interests.

Right now you have to admit that our champion has as close to zero a chance of success as is possible without actually being zero, but we’re not done. She has no money, no political dynasty family name, she has a large family, and she… is a she.

(snip)

Can Palin beat Obama? Compared to what she has accomplished already it will be the easiest campaign she has ever had. It serves every pundit well to remember that the last time that Sarah Palin stepped forward to slay a Goliath she first resigned from a corrupt political entity, and this is exactly what her enemies brought to the office of governor in Alaska after the 2008 campaign.

After leaving the oil and gas committee she emerged triumphant and slayed Murkowski, don’t doubt for one second that she can’t resign as Governor and parlay that into a winning campaign in 2012."

I didn't know much about the "Business Insider" prior to today. The current article plus the one linked below show it is nothing more than a leftist media outlet and not a business magazine:

That is just disgusting.

After reading that and the comments that followed, I am really frightened that there are people like that out there, and that they are amongst us.

AND THEY BREED. *shudder*
