First of all, try using italics the right way. Use them for my quotes, duh.

Since there aren't enough conservatives to make her president I stand by my comment.

Of the potential presidential candidates, Palin is the the only one who has huge grassroots support and the ability to attract cross-over independents and Dems disillusioned over Obama. So to say they're aren't enough conservatives to make her president is disingenuous.

her leaving her job plus the family problems will do her in.

Those who support her understand why she resigned and her (perceived) family problems are totally irrelevant to her standing right now.

She gave a speech which no one has heard except those there, big whoop! That isn't reaching out or stating your positons.

Excerpts of and the reporting of the speech itself were widely reported in the MSM, including the New York Times. Remember, she is supposed to be a "quitter" and no longer "relevant."

She should be the voice of the party and conservatives but she won't go any higher.

Doesn't need to right now. She's laying low and picking her battles. She's smart not to overexpose herself.

Oh that is rich, leading a party from your Facebook site, that is rich. Yup all good leaders lead from Facebook and an editorial.

Laugh all you want, but sites like Facebook are the future of politics. Every candidate has a Facebook page, a Twitter page, and a YouTube channel. If you don't have these then you're pretty much useless and there go your supporters.

If she is in such demand why isn't she on the Sunday news shows and/or being interviewed on radio?

Not being pursued by dinosaur media is a bad thing? She literally has over a thousand invites to speak, at various organizations and events that will boost her profile far more than appearing on the Sunday shows. BTW, she has appeared on Hannity & Rush's show.

If she really wants to run, lead, she has to get out there and take on the democrats but she hasn't and time is running.

Horse feces - she has been hammering at Obama & the Dems on cap and trade, Obamacare, etc. you name it. See, you are thinking in traditional terms whereas Palin should be a part of the RNC issuing bland press releases and such. She has completely changed the game and you don't even realize it.

Sorry you are so slow as to see why italics were used and I refuse to waste my time to explain it...but try. To help you out...

Of the potential presidential candidates, Palin is the the only one who has huge grassroots support and the ability to attract cross-over independents and Dems disillusioned over Obama. So to say they're aren't enough conservatives to make her president is disingenuous.

Disagree, she will draw the base not the independents, the best she could hope for is they set out the election.

Those who support her understand why she resigned and her (perceived) family problems are totally irrelevant to her standing right now.

They do? If she can't take the heat while in the governor's office she sure can't take it in the WH and that will be one of the threads that will stop her.

Excerpts of and the reporting of the speech itself were widely reported in the MSM, including the New York Times. Remember, she is supposed to be a "quitter" and no longer "relevant."

Excerpts don't cut it. She has yet to come out in front of a large group and make any statements, only behind closed doors...that is not speaking to the American people.

Doesn't need to right now. She's laying low and picking her battles. She's smart not to overexpose herself.

Wow, why didn't I think of that...a stealth candidate, yup that works every time.

Laugh all you want, but sites like Facebook are the future of politics. Every candidate has a Facebook page, a Twitter page, and a YouTube channel. If you don't have these then you're pretty much useless and there go your supporters.

Oh yeah, the voting public just hangs onto Facebook and twitter, oh yeah beats talking to the public every time.

If she is such hot property she would be pursued by the media but she isn't and for her that is a good thing.

Horse feces - she has been hammering at Obama & the Dems on cap and trade, Obamacare, etc. you name it. See, you are thinking in traditional terms whereas Palin should be a part of the RNC issuing bland press releases and such. She has completely changed the game and you don't even realize it.

Oh she has changed the game alright. Guess giving stealth speeches and issuing the occasional article for a editorial page is really stepping out there.

We disagree and only time will tell who is right but I my many years of watching politics have learned that when you are made fun of and become the butt of jokes you will not be elected. She, unfairly, has become the butt of jokes, easily ridiculed and laughed at. You can' win when that happens.
