Sarah was epecially nice to Williams and took his side in the NPR issue.

Then William goes and degrades her.

He’s a scum.

In the meantime, I am open to some alternative suggestions.

Yeah, there is some great future candidate out there hiding in the shadows, who will burst out on the scene.

Which raises the question, what the hell is this future candidate doing hiding in the shadows, while Romney is trying to take over the party, and while Obama is destroying the country?

That is a good question. At this point, I see a repeat of 2008, unless something gives. Where were the conservatives in 2008? Looks like they may have been hiding in the shadows, as they are now.

That’s great and all, but the vetting hasn’t even begun for him and the others. I hope Palin will enter the race because we cannot afford ro have a collapse with the other candidates once the vetting and demonizations begin.

Alaska’s proximity to Russia was an issue because if anything happened between the US and Russia you should know of that proximity and how much Alaskans would feel that. It is a legitimate issue with her having been Governor and dealing with the National Guard and with international borders so it’s not as absurd as you would like to believe.

Did I imply that Palin ever did say it

Yes. When you said this:

we know that she really can’t see Russia from her house. That was silly she actually took Robin Roberts out to check.

She took Roberts out to ride snow machines, and Roberts made the joke. Sarah did nothing "silly."

Also, you stated we have no idea what her policies might be. That is a totally clueless, PDS statement of ignorance.

Like I said, thanks for self identifying.

Sarah is like a Rorschach test:

She makes people lacking in intelligence scream,”She’s dumb!”

She makes those lacking in sanity scream, ‘She’s crazy!”

She makes those who’ve never accomplished anything scream, “She’s unqualified!”

It’s amazing to watch the psychological projection.

Like a crucifix to a vampire, her inherent goodness causes...oh, hell, just read my tag line...

They played the same game with us when JFK was running for president. Turns out that he didn’t write the book for which he was given a Pulitzer, “Profiles in Courage.” He had great charm, but it turns out that his measured IQ was only 117, about the same as the average high school teacher.

Actually he probably is a second-rate intellectual; he’s simply proof-positive that intellectuals are not, ipso facto, great thinkers, and that their one potential social contribution - extended study on a fairly narrow set of issues, is more than offset by the very real, potentially fatal, danger their arrogance poses to society.

Is this the same Obama who advocated nuclear disarmament in the 80s and opposed the surge in Iraq?

I don’t dislike her because I think she is stupid or too conservative. But then I then don’t Americans are either to question whether a candidate for president would much rather be roughing it among the moose and the caribou than in some stuffy political office.

“I’d rather be doing this than in some stuffy old political office. I’d rather be out here being free.”

I really don’t care why you dislike her.

You are irrelevant and will be swept aside by the tide of history along with all the other elitists and establishment idiots.

You are pissing into the wind and don’t yet realize it.

But you will.

The issue isn’t the background or demographics of the candidates, it’s the voters. Anyone sitting in a position of power will turn a corrupt incumbent, which exist is both Partys, if the country allows it to happen.

Prior to this administration, we didn’t hold people accountable and we didn’t pay attention and we didn’t ask the right questions of our officials and our elected leaders.

We all need to be paying closer attention, and making sure we understand so we don’t as you say fall into the bubble and don’t read the signs properly again.

That’s interesting that you mention corruption, as there is only one candidate on the national scene that has a history of fighting corruption no matter which party it is found in.
(and a small reason why the establishment Republicans don’t like her)

You say you are worried about the voters, who aren’t even paying attention yet and are being fed a dishonest smear . If you trash someone 24/7 then take a poll how would you expect the sheep to respond? Polls right now are less than MEANINGLESS.

You act as if the truth has no chance of winning out over the falsehoods. The fact that some on “our side’ fall for the false narrative doesn’t mean it can’t be overcome in a campaign.

You seem to have bought it hook line and sinker, which only shows it is you who can be easily swayed.

I’ve got a little secret for you...the establishment Republicans and media elites like Rove and Krauthammer and Will, et. al., are NOT afraid Sarah would lose this time around.

They are afraid she would win, and screw it up for Jeb Bush in 2016. They want Flip Floppney to get the nomination and then lose, so Jeb has a clear shot in four more years. This is all about the dynasty and extending the family name. That’s why her most ardent detractors are the Bushies.

If you really are “concerned” about electability, you are focused on the wrong candidate, as Sarah has the experience, honesty, charisma, values, tenacity, optimism, and strength of character to easily win the nomination and the general election. Especially against the cardboard cut-out of a human being in Barry Soetero.

Looking at the Electoral College map, if she would win the states McCain won and picked up the states where Tea Party candidates that she backed in 2010 won, she wins it in a landslide. It’s not even a big hill to climb. These meaningless ‘national’ polls are psyops to sway the gullible (your cue to look in a mirror.)

I think the voter who needs to pay closer attention is you, dude. Seriously, you are not looking very informed.
