Dem Operative: Barack Obama Would Crush Sarah Palin in 2012
US News and World Report ^ | March 24, 2011 | Brad Bannon

The last week like every other week has been interesting one for Sarah Palin. She wouldn’t have it any other way even if her actions diminish her stature. As long as the media spells her name correctly, she’s a happy camper.

The former half-term and half-baked Alaska governor is taking a world tour which includes stops in Israel and India. Is this trip a prelude to a presidential campaign or is it just a way of keeping her name before the public? Either way it’s not working out well for her. In India, she spoke at a press conference and she announced that she would not criticize the American president while she was on foreign soil. Then without taking a breath she proceeded to criticize him. This is a classic example of why most Americans dislike Palin. She says one thing and then does another just like the establishment politicians she mocks. Americans are looking for consistency and stability in a president and commander in chief and for most Americans she falls short on both counts.

Charlie Sheen’s mania is one of the few things that is rising faster than Palin’s negatives. National polls indicate that the former Republican vice presidential candidate is the most unpopular political figure in the United States. If Palin ran for president, she and her party would be crushed by Barack Obama and the Democrats. No wonder that the conservative GOP political guru Karl Rove is scared to death that she might be the Republican nominee...

Anybody else here old enough to remember when USN&WR was the most conservative of the newsweekly magazines? As to the article, I think that's called "whistling past the graveyard" or "preaching to the choir" right? If Americans are truly looking for "consistency and stability" in a president, what chance does Mr. Obama have next year?

The time has come to question the conventional wisdom which asks the question: “Is a candidate electable?”.

The truth is my dog could beat 0bama.

The question becomes: “Who has the guts to turn around this socialist Rat/Soros agenda?”

On that score Palin looks to be a top contender.

All the media and ALL TV is crap that fawns over Hussein. Sadly idiots keep watching but they like being serfs.

When the USA becomes insolvent - not far away - they are in for a big shock.

Any breathing conservative candidate will beat Obama but good. Sarah is still breathing therefore she qualifies as a person to be the next leader of this nation. We have had over two years of voting present President in the White House, and the folks know it and will dispatch him amazingly easily. I look forward to a competitive primary season may the best conservative candidate win.

Yet somehow Americna loves Obama for doing exactly what he criticize Palin for? Obama criticize Bush all the time while overseas and he always say one thing and does another. Just look at his campaign promises. Does he not see his hypocrisy

The media continues it onslaught because the Commie cockroaches would come to even more light under President Palin. They are doing everything in the world to prevent her from frying the Affirmative Action Tool in debates and unscripted.

He is a hardcore lazy Marxist, she is an executive and Mom.

She would bury the maggot in front of his fellating Statist cheerleaders like Brian Williams and Gwen Ifill.

LOL! And Bammy scores on both counts, I'm sure.

“Americans want consistency in a President”

Darn it all, whenever I see blatant hypocrisy, which is several times a day from the Libbo wackos, I just want to scream!!! And in the same breath he accuses Palin of hypocrisy, and yet he completely fails to see how Urkel has lied and lied and lied to the American public. Just look at the “consistency” he has given for Egypt and Libya. For gosh sakes, make the moron Libbos stop talking so I don’t lose my voice screaming!

These screeds about Palin having no chance to unseat Obama seem to be getting louder and more plentiful with each passing day, and from not just the Left, but also the RINO establishment. Which means they have a genuine fear that she’s likely to do serious damage to both. The Left can’t win in 2012 without a significant depression of voter turnout from the TEA Party Right; and the TEA Party Right has zero intention of backing any RINO Pretender wannabes with names like Romney, Pawlenty, or Huckabee; nor will the back a pro gun control Christie. Sarah Palin has the backing of the TEA Party en masse if she asks for their votes for POTUS. The other RINOS cannot hope to win without that, and the Left cannot hope to win against anyone who has the TEA Party bloc vote. That’s why they are all out to dissuade her from running with claptrap like this.

Barack Obama Will Crush Sarah Palin...

...in Massachusetts, New York, California, Illinois, Puerto Rico, & DC, Hawaii, Delaware, Rhode Island, Vermont.

But the key battleground states will bounce Obama to the curb.
