In this home video (from a cell phone video shot by Homeroid Billy Sullivan) Sarah Palin is confronted by a snotty constituent who is upset that she quit her Governorship to "become a celebrity":
Kathleen: You swore on your precious Bible that you would uphold the interests of this state, and then when cash was waved in front of your face, you quit.
Palin: OH, you WANTED me to be your governor! I’m honored! Thank you!
Kathleen: I wanted you to honor your responsibilities. That is what I wanted. I wanted you to be part of the political process instead of becoming a celebrity so that you could (inaudible). And if that’s the best you could do, then good for you. If that’s the best you could do.
Palin: Here’s the deal. Here’s the deal. (inaudible) That’s what I’m out there fightin’ for Americans to be able to have a Constitution protected so that we can have free speech…And ALSO there…

When Sarah asked her what she did there, "Kathleen" said she was a teacher. "And I do a few other jobs around here, too..." Like, maybe, Democrat party operative? Teachers' Union rep?
Yeah, did you notice the sign behind her? “WORST GOVERNOR EVER!” At least, it was spelled correctly...
Fiorino, not Whitman.
Don’t insult me by talking about enthusiasm, my observation is about the facts, “Palin is the dominant Republican figure in American politics, she is leader of and the most vibrant individual in the conservative movement, and she is definitely a solid choice for winner of the Republican primary at this point.”
That list of people that you posted are all politicians, but none of them comes close to challenging Governor Palin for leadership or dominance of the conservative movement, none of them challenge her as the most vibrant individual in the conservative movement.
“Palin is the dominant Republican figure in American politics, she is leader of and the most vibrant individual in the conservative movement, and she is definitely a solid choice for winner of the Republican primary at this point.”
Sarah Palin is a politician too. Always be wary of politicians... especially those you like. Always.
You really work hard to avoid getting the point don’t you.
The point was that Palin is the most dynamic force in politics, she is the leader of the conservative movement, she is the dominate force in GOP and conservative politics today, those guys that you mentioned are merely politicians, none of them are anywhere close to challenging Palin for leadership of conservatism, they are not movement leader material.
In your opinion.
In my opinion, there are better candidates... Chris Christie, for example. He is actually governing... doing what he was elected to do. And despite opposition and flaming from the other side, he hasn't quit yet.
What a liberal idiot!
Holding a sign saying “Worst Governor” the idiot then says her beef with Palin is that she QUIT being her Governor.
Palin’s “So you DID want me to be your Governor?” cut the heart out of her argument.
She remains a very popular figure in Alaska; and the only people who have a legitimate claim to have been let down by her not serving out her term as Governor are Alaskans that actually supported her and wanted her to remain in the Governor’s mansion.
This crazy liberal teacher may be one, but she obviously isn’t the other. Her own sign said as much.
“I HATE YOU, AND IN OFFICE YOU WERE THE WORST! HOW DARE YOU QUIT, YOU LET ME DOWN!” is not a coherent argument.
There is no question that she is the dominate force in GOP and conservative politics today, that is simply a reality, no one comes even close.
That does not mean that you or anyone else has to see her as the better candidate, you mention Christie, are you really claiming that he is up there at the Palin level of dominating media coverage and traveling the nation pumping up conservatism and endorsing candidates and speaking at tea parties and knocking Mitt Romney and President Obama off balance?
You keep confusing me and everyone else knowing who is the national leader of the conservative movement with saying that you need to support her over someone else.
On a serious note, look at the video...does anyone really believe thst SP is presidential? She had no clearly defined, linear reply about what she’s doing (fighting for the constitution?). The eye roll is Jr HS stuff. She came off as nothing but a light weight.
