Lets cut to the chase here.
Sarah Palin was elected as Governor in 2006 as the anti-Murkowski machine candidate. She beat incumbent Frank Murkowski in the GOP primary totally enraging the machine.
When she got to Juneau the legislature was filled with R’s who were loyal to the Murkowski GOPe machine. In order to govern with the legislature she had to work with anti-Establishment Republicans and the Democrats in the legislature.
But when she became John McCain’s running mate in 2008, all the Democrats who supported her turned against her.
When Sarah Palin returned to Juneau in November 2008 after the presidential election she had lost the ability to govern effectively because she had virtually no support in the legislature. The Democrats had joined the Murkowski Machine Republicans to oppose her.
Her decision to resign in 2009 was a wise one because it enabled the state to be effectively governed again with a legislature and governor who would “get along with each other”.
Best Post on the thread Yet C. Edmund Wright!
I think she would be more functional in a VP or Senatorial capacity. Is an Alaska senate seat up for grabs in 2016?
Ha ha! The establishment is scared shiteless! Hey Leo, I think we know Sarah P. pretty well by now, so don’t try and convince us that the sky is green.
Yeah, let’s all get behind Huckabee...Hipp Hip, Horray!!!!!
Exactly. Who gives up POWER? No one, even when faced with obvious criminality, EVER gives up POWER. Power is too seductive. She is NOT seduced by power. Now, tell me why we wouldn’t WANT someone in power who is not seduced by power? If Sarah P. is in, I’m ALL IN.
lol

Not me. I’m a Cruz type o guy...

I think we all agree we like her but would people vote for a woman after a very bad experience with the first black president? I think people are going to be more cautious this time around. We just about lost our country because of the current infiltrator.
If they run Hillary we have to run Sarah Palin.
Why does Sarah Palin have to run if Hillary runs? You don’t actually think running a woman will stop the mainstream press from crying war on women do you.
You shoot, and miss. We didn’t vote for a black man, we voted for a Marxist and got what we deserved. Sarah P. is a Western Conservative in the vein of Reagan. I have NO DOUBT that the establishment is terrified of her because they know she has a spine of steel and would immediately set about the task of dismantling the Washington corruption machine.
It’s even worse, Palin is seduced easily by money.
If I have to step into this imaginary cat fight I will. You think Sarah has baggage? Her husband is on his leash. Hillary’s is diddling underage girls. War on women? Nope, war on little girls. Sarah wins.
Wow! What a Shallow Completable little Flame Troll You Are.
Keep Spouting those Leftists Memes, Gotta do their work for them.
And, You didn't take my advice and Post all of Sarah's Achievements on Your BLOG. that SoConPubbie so graciously compiled: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3251390/posts?page=70#70
THANKS....but will it penetrate the stubborn noggins on the thread this am?
When do you start work at Daily Kos? Or is it Huffington Post? Or maybe just the Communist Party.....
Palin resigned as Governor of Alaska so she could go make money as a paid speaker and pundit. In her case, money was more seductive than power. I’m lost as why this is so outrageous to point out.
I don’t deny Palin’s accomplishments and in fact discussed them generally in my post. Her talents are better suited doing what she’s doing now.
Wow. I guess it is so much more moral to steal money from others and buy their votes than to greedily earn your own money.
...and HELLry is diddling her islamic/satanic “wife”, Huma.
