There is a critical narrative that has yet to be written. It has to do with the real reason for the housing bubble, the corruption at Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac and Federal Government's facilitation of that corruption. That narrative cannot be written by anyone who has been in the national spotlight since Bush's attempt to reign in the players. They have lost the moral authority to address that subject.

As far as I can tell, Sarah Palin is the only national figure with both the moral authority and platform to educate the American public on the real reasons our economy is where it is. I hope she can pull it off.

“The proof of the latter point was made with the evidence that many important Washington Republicans could never support her for more than cheerleader to her marginal people.”......and those important Washington Republicans are....

Good stuff. Seems like the news is more fun lately.

she is very sweet. And that's why the left hates her so viciously. They want republicans to look like ugly curmudgeons. But this is what they have to offer:

The mayor of San Francisco in 1966 was a Republican? What a different world that was.

(1) unabashedly but politely criticizes President Obama where it hurts him most; and, (2) eye-catchingly articulates the central values and objectives of the about 60 percent of the public that views the current administration's actions with slack-jawed horror and fear.

That is Sarah Palin.

The American people have had a belly full of new ideas in the last year. The next winning politician and party will only have to offer two "new ideas": Stop it now! (and) Start rolling it back immediately! It may take decades just to execute those two new ideas.

Is anyone in the GOP listening? We don't want bipartisanship, we want a stop to this madness.

Sparkle and warmth fall under the category of style.

The conservatives of yesteryear were judged on their substance, now they are judged on their style.

As an early foot soldier for Ronald Reagan (starting in his 1966 California primary campaign for governor against San Francisco Mayor George Christopher), I well remember with what bemused scorn the political establishment of both parties held for Mr. Reagan. Then moderate state Assemblyman Caspar Weinberger told the New York Times that "Christopher will do much better than Rockefeller did. Reagan will get the great bulk of the Goldwater support, but it does not represent much more than one-third of the party."

Bears repeating.

When will people realize that the plan so obviously IS to bring us to our knees morally, financially, and militarily so that we will run into the arms of the new world order?
