Sarah Palin Is The Future Of The GOP
Gather.com ^ | June 15, 2009 03:27 PM EDT

If the liberal loons would have just shut up after the election in 2008, perhaps Sarah Palin would have been forgotten, a mere footnote in history.

The problem is, the liberal loons just can't help themselves, and are genetically encoded to attack anyone with ideas they deem repellent.

If you're pro life, you're an superstitious idiot. If you're against homosexual marriages you're a evil bigot. If you dare to question global warming, you're a dupe for big business. If you own a gun and like to hunt you're a mindless barbarian.

We all know the predictable screed from the irrational leftist loons.

Sarah Palin reminds the progressive nutjobs of these things, and stands as a symbol for them to mobilize against, mock, and demean. Democrats have a long history of this, calling Ronald Reagan a cowboy, Bush 41 a secret spook, Quayle a dummy, and Bush 43 a boob.

Sarah Palin represents everything the goons on the left stand against.

When you add that to the fact she's smart, good looking, and has a deadly sense of humor-- well, you have the possibility the first female president of the USA could force the first black president of the USA out of office after one term.

Things had better go well for Obama in the next three years, because they will go swimmingly for Palin.

Palin has put together a deal with TransCanada, a pipeline building company, and Exxon, of the oil producing fame, to build a new pipeline from Alaska to the continental USA that will transport NATURAL gas.

I'm not sure many Americans yet realize, but natural gas is going to be a HUGE transitional fuel as we seek "independence from foreign oil supplies."

Natural gas is going to be a very large factor in fueling our cars, as well as our buildings, mainly because the USA has a very large reserve of natural gas at their disposal, and Palin has perfectly positioned herself to take advantage of this confluence of events.

This project ALONE will keep her in the news for the next few years, and I'm sure we can count on the leftist loons like David Letterman to keep her in the headlines as well.

Sarah Palin is the future of the GOP, if they know what's good for them.

“She still has quite a bit to prove with her being on the national scene for only a year”

Only to the Huckabee and Mitt fans. Both of whom have a mountain of CONSERVATIVE proving to do to get the Palin fans...


Come on... no need for overstatement. I detest Huckster and Mitt--they've already proven themselves as unworthy of the nomination--but Palin still has proving to do.

Why don’t you view the DVD Midia Malpactive which
goes into detail about those interviews, the editing,
and much more.

You need to get informed before repeating the liberal propaganda

the only proving Sarah has to do for me is to prove that she can overcome all the MSM piling on and win.

Palin is a Feminist and a self-proclaimed progressive. Mark this warning.

Donna, Donna, Donna!

She is not electable because, why?

Because the corrupt state-run MSM has riduculed her?
Because the liberal loons hate her?
Because Saturday Night Live lampooned her?

If those are among your reasons then you had better rule out ALL Republicans because, in case you haven’t noticed, this is the SOP for all threatening Republicans! If we’re going tuck our tails and cower in discomforting embarrassment every time the corrupt MSM ridicules a Republican then, my friend, you had better take up basket-weaving because standing up for liberty against the gates of hell just isn’t for you.

Gingrich/Palin 2012

Wait until Obama has to run on his record of “Change you can believe in” which resulted in runaway inflation, record unemployment, skyrocketing deficits, etc...

That “Change and Hope” BS bamboozled the ignorant once, but even they won’t be fooled by this con man again.

I agree.

I don’t think Huck or Romney are conservative at all.

The only 2 conservatives I see that have proven themselves over a long period of time are Mark Sanford and Gary Johnson

I hope she continues to use the term “progressive”...because it’ll drive the progressives nuts.

What exactly is that supposed to mean. I am stating that she is smart, is she a Rhodes scholar, no. But I am certain she has above average intelligence. I am simply saying you may not want the smartest person in the world as president. They are not always the most successful leaders.

LOL

I have noticed that here as well that intelligence is still derided.

Governor Palin needs to do quite a bit for me to prove she is ready for prime time and can handle the media and run a well organized operation to actually win an election.

Its been one side show after the other with her since she was announced as VP candidate

I don’t think she is well informed or very smart. (”Not very smart” does not mean “stupid”.)

She wasn't smart enough to take on her state's corrupt Republican establishment. What? She did and she won.

She wasn't smart enough to take on her state's corrupt democrats. What? She did and she won.

She wasn't smart enough to take on the oil companies. What? She did and she won, more than once.

She wasn't smart enough to balance the state budget when oil prices dropped and revenue tanked. What? She did. Well, I guess it couldn't have been that hard even though the other 49 state governors struggled with it and most failed.

If you don't think this lady is sharp as a tack, you haven't been paying attention to the challenges she has taken on and the solid victories she scores. You should stop listening to the news anchors and edited cuts and pay attention to results in the real world.

When I listen to her field questions from Couric and others, I am not impressed.

When you don't have practiced (non)answers to use when asked a question designed to trip you up and try to answer honestly ("do you support the Bush Doctrine?") you can find yourself momentarily without words. If you are willing to lie, an answer can easily roll off the tongue.

She just clubbed Letterman like a baby seal so you might be right. Might make an interesting photo shop ...

Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton and B. Hussien Obama all have been considered “brilliant” and “well educated”, mainly at “world class” and “Ivory League” institutions.

Ronald Reagan was considered by many to be fairly smart in a common way and was an average student at a run of the mill mid-west state university.

Something to ponder....

There’s also a huge difference in her skills as an interviewee since she doesn’t have the McCain handlers in the back of her mind.

It has to be incredibly difficult to campaign for VP. Especially when it was obvious that many of McCain's positions were at odds with her beliefs.
