Is Sarah Palin Building A Catholic Support Base For a 2016 Run?

McCain Suggest A Pro-Life Catholic Could Have Won In 2012

Update; "The Catholic Bandita" AT THIS LINK headlines "best wishes to Sarah Palin as she leaves Fox news". An interesting take as full support to Sarah is given as a person but not politically because of her endorsement of Rand Paul in his senate race. I would be confident the political support would return if Sarah ran though. ***************************************************************

Original post;

If Sarah Palin's latest Tweets and the announcement of her next speaking engagement are examined it is very clear that the religious aspect of her focus has, at least for the time being, superseded the overtly political.

As can also be determined Palin has made an emphasis on her right to life beliefs with her speaking engagement following the Catholic Archbishop Chaput's memorial Mass in honor of the late Terry Schiavo in Philadelphia.

Her right to life beliefs are of course exemplified on her carry her Down Syndrome child Trig to birth and her celebration of basketball achiever Down Syndrome Owen Groesser in a Tweet...

The liberal Northeastern Catholics were never going to vote for her, or any other pro-life candidate anyway, so they are irrelevant.

Irrelevant as far as Sarah goes, but they were instrumental in sending two of the most vile pro-death Congresswomen out there to Washington to represent Red Hampshire...they helped elect another to the State House.

I’ve given up. I have seen the light. The only way to solve the illegal problem is to free millions of law-breakers, make Mexico a state. They have always claimed most of the west anyway. So let us conservatives lobby for statehood for Mexico. That way they will become legal workers and can come and go as they please. Remember, most Mexicans are family oriented and Catholic. They work hard and as free Americans they would work and pay taxes like the rest of us. They would love us for making them a state and they would vote conservative. See? Besides I like them better than some other people who won’t work.

After amnesty for illegal immigrants passes, there’s no way that U.S. conservatism can, ever, recover!

That's an unpleasant thing to say. And it well may be true.

But it think it's more correct to say: After amnesty for illegal immigrants passes, there’s no way that the GOP on a national level can, ever, recover.

I do not think Obama was supported by church-going Catholics.How can we count as Catholic people who have not gone to Catholic Church in years?

Sarah needs to come back to the faith.

Not interested in anyone who saw what we were facing in 2012 and decided to sit out who had a legit shot at winning the nomination. Chris Christie, Sarah Palin are two that are dead to me.

How can you place Governors Chris Christie and Sarah Palin in the same sentence? Didn’t you forget Charlie Crist, Jeb Bush and Arnold Schwarzenegger?

You can't be serious! Her religious faith is her personal decision. They burned her church down with women and children in it, for goodness sake!! How would you feel if I told you to convert to Islam or Zoroastrianism?

She is a baptized Catholic. She needs to come back to the Catholic Church.

Why don’t we leave that to Gov. Palin and her Creator and worry about our own souls, shall we?

Don’t you mean the CINOs voted for him?

Anyone who supports abortion in any way, excommunicates him/herself.

Check it out in the catechism.

so I have not thought of leaving even with all those problems

Same here. I think of Peter's response: "Lord, to whom else should I go?"

The context of my comment was decidedly not "who has similar policy ideas or records." It was clear from my comment that I was commenting on people who had a legitimate shot at the 2012 GOP nomination for President. You really have to expend a lot of mental energy to NOT see that.
Didn’t you forget Charlie Crist, Jeb Bush and Arnold Schwarzenegger?
Charlie Crist and Arnold Schwarzennegger had no chance at the 2012 GOP nomination. Arnold does not even qualify. Jeb Bush, practically speaking, had almost no shot at the nomination primarily because of his older brother George. I am not a fan of any of these three.

Christie had a fantastic shot at winning the GOP nomination and winning the election. He had big money chasing him and begging him to run. Very popular. Don't agree with much of his policy but in comparison to Obama he is by contrast like Buckley. Palin could have won the GOP nomination, but probably emerged so damaged that she would have limped into the general election.

"Arnold does not even qualify."

Neither is Marco Rubio or Bobby Jindahl, yet they keep talking them up.
