DC is just an infected cesspool of human refuse.

They say it because that is all that they have... they can’t say she is too conservative... because they are ALL lying about how conservative that they are... of course... they are all liberal leftists.

Palin is much more qualified to be president than 0bama is even today. He ain’t jack.

"I’d be worried if they liked her and supported her."

Exactly.

The inside-the-Beltway crowd doesn't like it when there's few, if any, cocktail parties at the White House.

That was very obvious during the Bush presidency... the cocktail crowd hated the Bush presidency... they'd really hate a Palin presidency.

Let the snooty, oh-so-edumacated folk eat cake.

In addition, 79 percent of those classified as Washington elites said they think Palin is a "negative influence in national politics" . . .

For me, that's almost as good as if Ronald Reagan came down in the form of an angel and endorsed her.

I'd love to see her give some of the libtards the halibut and caribou treatment, figuratively speaking.

Well OBVIOUSLY Palin is not a qualified candidate according to republican elites. She is dramatically lacking in the proper credentials. That is, she is not limp-wristed, she is not a spineless sell-out, she is not a weasel, she is not a back stabber, she will not abandon her beliefs in exchange for a NY Times puff-piece, she is not a shameless vote-buyer.....clearly not a qualified republican elite.

Good news in my book! Bet they love ol' Mitt Romney!

Like they loved John Connally and Howard Baker in 1979. Anybody but Ronald Reagan back in those days. Same ol', same ol'....

"Although the Gipper had a near mystical hold over grassroots conservatives, he was still not held in high regard by the power brokers of the GOP. In the spring of 1979, a survey of leading Republicans showed John Connally to be their first choice for GOP nominee in 1980, with 31.9 percent of the vote; Howard Baker came in second with almost 18 percent; Reagan was essentially tied with George Bush at 11 percent."

-- Craig Shirley, Rendezvous With Destiny, pg. 36. (Citation to U.S. News article from April 16, 1979)

Thanks for the citation regarding Reagan’s support in 1979. Saved it to my Palin files.

Elitists of both parties flee like vampires from sunlight in the presence of anything that resembles a Principle. I don’t know if Sarah Palin would be the best GOP Presidential candidate in 2012, but I can think of no better endorsement than the fact that she is roundly despised by the very people who have placed our country in peril for the sake of their overblown egos.

members of the political establishment said they don't think Palin is qualified to hold the office

Please understand that in my eyes this is the number one reason why someone should vote for her. That, or someone else who is better prepared, not for the presidency, but to take the country back from the political establishment. You know, the ones who have bankrupted the country, and turned it into a caricature of itself.

Find me someone who will actually cut the budget; not just cut the rate of growth, which is a conman's game, but actually cut the budget and bring it under control. I don't yet know that she will, but I know that they won't.

Show me someone who will eliminate whole departments from the federal government. I don't yet know that she will, which is why the jury is still out on her, but I know that they won't, which is why the verdict is already in on them.

Whether or not she is "prepared" to do battle with the Washington establishment, and is "prepared" to face them and defeat them, is the question I am asking. I know the establishment fears her, and thats the main reason I'm interested in her.

We're in the midst of an economic melt-down and the "insiders" are arguing about how much more they can inflate the currency, bloat the bureaucracy, and raise taxes. They are out of control. I'm looking for people who are prepared to wage war on the insiders. It might be her, and I know its not them.

They have been weighed in the balance and found disastrous.
