Actually during her 20 year in politics, Governor Palin earned her reputation as being a strong leader, a reformer, someone who can take on the establishment and beat them.
Since Palin came on the national scene 3 1/2 years ago, she has helped conservatives make historical gains.
Palin is currently playing an important role in the effort to defeat Mitt Romney.
She avoided CPAC for many reasons, David Keane was one of the major ones.
Wow.
That's the only verb that describes this possiblity.
Verb? Wait, what... mount?
Oh, and it's 'possibility' for those who can't afford Firefox to spell check.
Other than that, interesting concept. Sarah was clearly the most powerful and dynamic speaker at CPAC. Her grass roots support is strong, and she would fill her war chest in a weekend. I doubt she'll enter the race, but it's great fun to watch heads on both sides of the political spectrum explode over the prospect. You betcha!
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. I could raise $2 million for her in 3-6 months or less, easily.
Our choices are not that inspiring, no one has lit the fuse against the worst, weakest, and most destructive president in our lifetime. Heck, we like Newt the best of the two conservatives, but because he has no presence in Michigan, we'll vote for Santorum just to defeat Mitt.
If that were to help bring it to the convention, and she actually jumped in front of the others there, I think most (if not all) of us here would gladly jump on board.
Doubtful at best.......
Why did she show up at CPAC this year and not the last three despite being asked repeatedly? She thought she was to big for CPAC till the last year she saw her star fading she can’t live without that once you get that taste of power you do anything to keep it.
Dang man, this lady’s playing with me. We had a name for girls like that in high school. Problem is, I keep falling for her. She’s still got me hooked and knows it. Why doesn’t she just play nice, quit teasing me (us), and jump in?
Just STFU, you sound like a total moron.
I don’t believe in fairy tales, but what are the chances there are wealthy pro-America conservatives and independents out there who are thinking the same thing?
I mean - sadly, we all know most of us are supporting one of the two conservative candidates simple because he’s “not Romney” and less odious by our standards than the other...

IT'S WORKING!!
I’d take leave to help. My loss in wages would more than be compensated by the reduction of my children’s debt being piled up by the clowns currently driving the bus. The alternative: our economy goes full tilt Argentina, or the republic goes full tilt marxist, or worse yet, the world is thrown into global war and tyranny. There are weathermen in the white house. There are communists in the congress. The beast is inside the gates.
Failure is not an option, folks.
She didn’t say it, but the last several CPAC conventiontions were dominated by GOProud. There has been a change of command, but the previous convention organizers gave GOProud pride of place. They dominated everything.
If finally came to a head last time, and those responsible were forced to resign. I haven’t heard a word about the homsexual activists this time.
Did you know that Jim Robinson and freerepublic also boycotted CPAC during that CPAC homosexual period?
If there is any reality to this, the convention will be a blood-fest worse than ‘64 ‘76 or ‘80.

It seems unlikely that a deadlocked nominating convention would pick an outsider.
But, of course, Palin is not an outsider. She is the best possible candidate out there. The establishment would never nominate her—but the establishment didn’t want to nominate Reagan, either.
If, as I expect, Romney implodes, and Newt and Rick can’t get a majority, then they might well turn to an outside candidate.
Jeb Bush has been mentioned. But can they pull that off? Impose a third Bush on the party, out of the blue?
It’s still an outside chance, but I think there is also a chance that Palin might get it, because everything else has blown up in their faces.
I suppose it depends on who the delegates are, and whether they are willing to do the right thing. Ron Paul has been working on that angle, trying to get Paulbots into the Convention, but I seriously doubt he can pull it off.
Let’s hope & pray that this somehow works out.
You don’t even know what a kingmaker is.
There is no way Sarah Palin could perform that function.
You could do a double facepalm and it wouldn’t cover up how foolish you look now.
America will be beyond salvage by 2016.
Sarah is the only Republican that can beat Obama.
