voting bloc whose vote can be purchased with a 28 oz. can of cold Colt .45 and a pack of Kools,

That's racist, and besides, the price is up to a six pack and a carton.

“By rights, Jews should back Sarah.”

Absolutely.

But don’t count on it.

Most of God’s “stiff-necked people” are secular progressives first and foremost, and “jews” largely for social and career reasons.

It took me a long time to figure that out.

This is why the attacks on O’Donnell in Delaware by the GOP establishment is disingenuous. Because anyone who’s a veteran of the political wars should know that there are very few people who are truly “unelectable”.

Palin is supposedly "unelectable."

This is the left's big mistake: Tina Fey is unelectable. But Sarah Palin is not Tina Fey.

The same types of people said Reagan was “unelectable”. They feared another “Goldwater massacre”. Then, when he won, they latched onto him like starved leeches.

The slithering spineless squishes then spent his entire presidency trying to undermine his policies and pull him to the “center”. They leaked stories about him and his “intransigence” and then implied (or said outright), he was “out of touch”, sleeping, and/or too dim to “get it.”

They thought they knew better than him how to do things and were frustrated when he wouldn’t take their enlightened advice. ...and those were a majority of his RINO workers.

In fact, he was a brilliant, intellectual powerhouse who knew what he believed and wasn’t about to be shaken by their elitist and condescending tripe.

In ‘64 we could nominate, but not win.
In ‘80 we could win, but not govern.
Next time, we nominate Palin, we win, and we govern.

Palin is the only one with fire in the belly to take on the communist left.

I truly appreciate and admire the tea party women who have acted more fearless and with more balls than all the patsies and pansies in the gop combined.

Can someone tell me where Reagan was polling against Carter in 1978?

In late 1978 a Harris poll showed Reagan trailing Carter by 17 points, 55-38.

In 1979 U.S. News published comments by the Carter WH lamenting that Reagan seemed to be slipping because they thought he was the most beatable:

"White House political strategists have concluded—regretfully—that Ronald Reagan is fading and will have little chance of winning the Republican presidential nomination in 1980. Why the regrets? Because Carter's aides are convinced that the conservative, 68-year-old former California governor is an easy target. (April 2, 1979)"

I have been waiting for her to officially declare and give a verifiable means of donating to her campaign that I know is going to her!.........It's the car payment I don't have, it's the mortgage payment that I don't have - it's a lot - all by credit card payments - monthly - just like the Democrats do... Go Sarah... sign me .....Just Waiting.

Jonathan Chait - A self-described liberal hawk

He drew considerable attention with his "Case for Bush Hatred", in which he defended his dislike not only of Bush's policies but also his personality and mannerisms

Still Crazy After All These Years
Bush's tax cut didn't work, won't work.

On the subject of a comparison of Andrew Breitbart to Dan Rather, Jonathan Chait of The New Republic writes:

Breitbart makes a malicious error, very similar to a previous malicious error he committed, and lashes out at his critics rather than confess his mistake. CBS makes a sloppy but innocent mistake and fires the responsible parties.

What I’ve found funny are the GOP’ers who have been discounting this (obvious) intention of Gov. Palin.
