So now they attack her because evidently she is not “sophisticated” to their taste. Dear God preserve us from these soi disant intellectuals

I wish she had fulfilled her term as governor instead of cashing checks on the lecture circuit making cornpone jokes and shallow observations.

I agree. If Governor Palin had told McCain no thank you, I have work to do in Alaska, she would have won a second term and been ready for a run in 2016.

Well, if I’m grateful for anything concerning the whole GOP backstabbing of Palin, it’s that it truly opened my eyes to the vileness of the Republican Party establishment, and how it in no longer represents my values or my beliefs. It ended my lifelong, exclusive-GOP voting record; it ended all the wasted time I used to devote listening to so-called ‘conservative’ pundits; it ended my viewing of FoxNews after being a longtime watcher.

Hence, it’s really taken a big burden off my shoulders, and freed up a lot of time.

Speaking of Biden, what would the media have said if Palin recalled how President Franklin Roosevelt went on TV in 1929 to reassure America that things were gonna be OK?

Whatever her merits or demerits, conservatives jumping on this bandwagon -- or damning her by defense with faint praise -- are forgetting that once the left has destroyed her, they will simply move on to the next target.

Why would anyone with any decency facilitate the left's "politics of personal destruction?"

Lukewarm piece, yet true enough with regard to a semblance of perspective.

Even in it’s lukewarmness it s brave in it’s own way.

I don’t like the supposed conservatives, Ben Shapiro being number one, totally spewing ay her like any MSNBC Palin Derangement Syndrome sufferer.

I ave realized the lack of any rationality or objectivity when it comes to her is a type of xenophobia.

It’s scary and visceral in that it is more akin to a lunch mob or childish bullying than anything mature or rational.

The media we are getting angry about in this case is supposedly “conservative” media that that is supposed to be ‘on our side’.

We have the MSM (Mainstream Media) but we also have an RSM (RINOstream Media) in this country, too.

You are all missing that this is an incredibly brave article for him to write.

speaking as a Christian, I was pretty dissappointed last year when Palin referred to waterboarding as baptism for terrorists.

As a Christian that actually has a sense of humor and understands that terrorists are the biggest threat to freedom liberty and Christianty, I was able to see the humor in her statement........

These guys think they are smarter than us unwashed peasants. That’s their problem. If Reagan was in her place he’d probably get the same treatment.

I’m not a fan of Palin. However, the viciousness of the attacks upon her person and family were without decency.

Al Gore, Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, and many Democrats are big POS when compared to Sarah. Sarah gets a raw deal at every turn. Considering that the MSM turned all of their guns toward her should be the first inkling that she poses a credible and real threat to Democrats and liberals. In my lifetime, I have never seen a politician attacked so vociferously as I have Palin. Because they dislike her so much, she must represent the total opposite of the left which means she represents me and the attitude of the left is the same toward me as well.

This article notwithstanding, her Iowa speech was cringeworthy. She needs a speechwriter. It’s a must.

Well, if the libtards at the WaPo say it’s so, it must be correct:

"Every day I hate the media a little more than the day before."

So do I, but I don't think this piece is a good example of why I hate the media. I think the piece is pretty fair. Palin had political talents that she didn't nurture after the 2008 election; she was derailed by the vicious treatment meted out to her, and her revenge was to get rich rather than prove her critics wrong in the political sphere.

I will certainly vote for her before I would vote for Romney, Bush, McStain, or Christie.

It wouldn’t matter if Palin was perfect, they would still want to crucify her.

It isn’t her wrongdoings that make them so angry. They are most angry when she is right.

Sorry I must be tired found this hard to follow. One guy is claiming to be Christian, certainly not anybody that would have a article posted at the anti Christian Daily Beast.

The writer is claiming to be Christian while trashing his supposed Sister in Christ.. Yes Sarah is a Christian this we know for certain.
