Sarah Palin rocked the Iowa Freedom Summit 2015 in full force. The speech came hot off the heels of Palin's reveal to the media that she is seriously considering a presidential run in 2016.
Palin's speech featured personal stories about experiences in the Hawk Eye State as well as harsh words for Obama and the anti military left. Palin also trolled Hillary Clinton towards the end of her speech. After watching that speech I say, screw the GOP's 2016 deep bench--we want Palin!
How do we end up with the GOP baseball team and possibly 20-25 candidates on a debate stage come August 2015? Answer: Too many on the right, whether it be influential pundits or rank and file, do not do basic vetting on White House hopefuls and continue to prop up flavor of the month and untested and unknown political commodities.

Palin has chosen to take care of her family, as she should. There are several competent men available to run for president. We should support one of them and pray that he can prevail over Hillary and the Leftist media. Realistically, Palin would not stand a chance.
But I do think if she came out early for Ted Cruz and campaigned with him he’d win the nomination I like Palin for Interior Secretary or the Energy Dept.
I think she should get in and see if she can win the nomination. If so, she will have my vote in November, 16.
Really? Same thing was said about Reagan in 1980.
As much of a SP supporter as I am, sadly I'm inclined to agree. Regardless of whether the 'quitter' meme that the media had pasted on her was justified or not (it wasn't), she's unfortunately become damaged goods from all of their slings and arrows, and all the hateful crap spewed by the Left against her and her family.
Sarah really needed to run for a lower office and complete a term before trying for the big chair. IMO, she should have run for the Alaska Senate seat last year that was occupied by a Rat (Begich). Maybe she can primary Murkowski when her term is up.
She has done more for our side than almost anyone.
Who else articulates conservative thought, that is noticed?
Who else actively works the primary process to vet Rino candidates?
Who else has as high a win to endorsement ratio?
Who else can draw energized crowds to events?
She is doing fine where she is and we are grateful for her.
Speak for yourself. I want Ted Cruz.
Sorry dude. There's no way to spin it. Palin's speech in Iowa was dreadful. It was rambling and incoherent. I'm not entirely certain she was even sober. If Rick Perry gave the same speech, we'd rightfully be asking if he was still on pain meds.
And I'm, sure I'll be called a moderate and a RINO and whatnot but that's the truth. If she wants a future in electoral politics, she needs to start bringing her A-game. If she doesn't, she needs to get out of the way and do what she does best, promote other candidates.
SotH Beohmer and SML McConnell; Really need to be
relieved of their powerful positions in the Congress.
BINGO!
So, you’re saying that those competent men have chosen not to take care of their families.
Right?
Cuz that’s sure what it sounds like.
