Nice. This should be required reading for the disingenuous “I love her, but” crowd.

[BufordP]

No one more qualified? Really?

Don't get me wrong. I like Sarah Palin. I wouldn't mind her in the Whitehouse. I think she's an improvement over Jorge. She's better than a RINO, I suppose, or any Dum for that matter. But the MOST QUALIFIED? Please.

The "cult of personality" is just as prevalent amongst the Freeper ranks as it is in the liberal community.

If you're fool enough to call me a McGringPawlRomKabee bot (say that 3 times fast), save your breathe. You couldn't find where I've supported any of those fools.

Nobody knows who is going to run as of this date and it could very well be a complete unknown appear and rise to the top when the time comes.

Excellent article!

I am (unfortunately) old enough to remember that Ronald Reagan was not electable.
No way. Could never happen.

Well, I went to Harvard, so I shouldn’t talk. But I had the advantage of a strong religious education before going there, so I could choose my professors and avoid the obnoxious junk. I’m not sure if that’s even possible now. Where half the English Department or half the History department used to be ideologically questionable, now it’s closer to 95%. There are virtually no decent professors left standing.

But this article has Palin’s strengths down. She is smart, well educated, lots of common sense, a natural leader since high school or earlier, plenty of executive experience, and strong religious faith which makes her reliable under difficult conditions, when most politicians would bend with the wind.

You don’t have to be religious to support someone who is, if that’s what it takes to be absolutely reliable.

She is by far the best candidate out there. Indeed, she is about the only candidate I’ve seen in the past twenty years who has the qualities we need in this national emergency.

I am afraid none of the “front runners” can win. Sarah is great, but has already been marginalized and painted as a joke (and her little reality show gig makes her look even less serious), Romney is actually a democrat, Huckabee has a Willie Horton problem and is not presidential, Gingrich was great 15 years ago, but has too much personal baggage.

The second tier candidates look much better, but are unknown.

The moderator must not be a bird-watcher.

Sarah has a personal challenge - to convince nonbelievers that she’s the person the writer describes. If she can do that then voters can make their choice at least knowing who Sarah is.

[Clara Lou]

I’m not sure that there’s no one else more qualified. I like Herman Cain, for one. He has real-world experience and good ideas. I’m just not sold on Sara.

[Steamburg]

If the question is being asked, then she is quite electable. If it were not likely that she and firebrand conservatives could win the day in 2012, then she would be receiving support not daily attacks. This is a no brainer. Of course there are so many “conservatives” who are afraid to be disliked that they will wet their pants to find reasons not to like her. America needs people who are quite willing to be non-PC and deeply disliked by every Libtard they meet. We must be in their faces every hour of every day. Don’t give an inch.

is she electable?

was 0bama?

[RoadTest]

“But is she electable?”

That’s not up to just you and me but to the other millions of voters

[Principle Over Politics]

I would disagree that their is no one more qualified “for” the White House. Now, if you change that to “in” the white house, I could heartily agree.

Her speeches during the recent congressional elections were not only unteleprompted barnburners in the best populist tradition, but revealed a meticulous command of the domestic issues currently bedeviling the nation as well as a finely nuanced understanding of America’s pancreatic failures in international diplomacy.

"Pancreatic failures"?

She displays a far more realistic perspective on the Middle East and has far more accurately taken the measure of America’s geopolitical competitors, particularly Russia and China, than anyone in the Democratic administration.

He's saying that he agrees with what he thinks she thinks about the Middle East, Russian, and China.

Whether she's really deeply analyzed those regions and clearly sees what's going on there is a whole 'nother matter.

IF SHE WERE NOT ELECTABLE... THE LEFT WOULD IGNORE HER... LIKE THEY IGNORE ALL OF THOSE THAT DO NOT HAVE A CHANCE. They attack Sarah so viciously because they know that she will be the next PRESIDENT.
