In less than an hour Sarah Palin achieved something the rest of the punditry and media class were unable to do.
Pay attention to the time.
At 3:42pm Eastern time Sarah Palin tweeted her shot at Hillary Clinton:
(TWEET-AT-LINK)
Those who follow political discourse could immediately hear the sound of the speed dial clamoring amid Media Matters and Team Hillary.
(TWEET-AT-LINK)
And within an hour the following report from CNN via MediaIte:
(TWEET-AT-LINK)
And The Hill
(TWEET-AT-LINK)
“Hillary Clinton will likely hold a press conference over the next few days to address the controversy over her use of private email accounts while secretary of State, according to reports.
Bloomberg cited a “source close to Clinton” who said she will speak to reporters to push back at criticism over her use of private accounts for official business”….
The Bloomberg report was sent out at 4:21pm
[…] Two sources close to Clinton said Monday that the former secretary of state will likely hold a press conference in an effort to push back on a week of speculation about why she used the private account instead of one hosted by the State Department. It would also present an opportunity for Clinton to defend her family foundation’s acceptance of contributions from foreign donors during and after her time at State.
A press conference addressing perceived secrecy and potential ethical lapses isn’t what Clinton wants to be doing in mid-March, and she and some of her close advisers had hoped to put off answering questions about her e-mail account until she formally launches her campaign, almost certainly in April.
But their desire to ride out the storm was overtaken by a sense that their initial attempt to let some air out of the controversy—via a tweet conveying Clinton’s request for the State Department to release her e-mails—hadn’t done enough to ease the tension. (link)
Well played Mrs. Palin, well played. Even after all these years, you are still living rent free in their heads.
bttt
Good article. Not sure if you want to ping the list....
She is a freakin political genius at times. She does more damage with a few carefully chosen words than all the rest of our crowd put together.
Funny to see all the libs calling her irrelevant but they are following her on twitter. Living rent-free in the heads of the left...
But wait a minute.
I thought she was done for after her “disastrous” speech in Iowa?
If I had a five dollar bill for every time they said she was “over” I’d be able to buy a nice used car.
Sarah’s been “Done” according to the left for what, 6+ years now..yet wherever she goes they follow her around like a puppy dog..when Sarah speaks, people listen, even the ones who hate her..that’s the power of Palin, they hate to admit it but its true
.At this point, what difference does it make?
I’m going back to dodging sniper fire...
She certainly knows how to push the RIGHT button !
Hillary , “I did not have sexual relations with that woman ,Oh wait”
re Palin’s political genius - -
Sometime ago on FR, I believe, I asked the question if any
think Sarah alone is responsible for all her political ideas, thoughts, contributions, publications, etc.
Or does she have an assistant - aside from whatever MR. Palin may contribute.
I don’t remember getting any responses - - so - what now do you think?
For the record, I deeply admire Sarah Palin. I went on a bus to hear her speak in Carson, Calif. all those years ago. (and met John Voight)!
Thanks for the Heads-up leapfrog0202.
Bookmark Ping to Sarah's List, another take on this E-Mail Mess.
Textual relationship is the issue
I think Sarah Palin is her own genius. I think her ideas are original and her's alone. When I saw her speak at the Republican National Convention, when the teleprompter failed, (I think it was sabotaged.) she didn't bat an eye. She continued on with her speech as if nothing had happened, and boy what a speech it was! She accurately nailed that stupid Obama son of a b*tch to the wall, and had the Democrats shaking in their boots. (They even admitted this.)
Sarah Palin is in my mind, a real political genius who has some of Reagan's talent and an uncanny ability to drive the left coo coo for coco puffs when she speaks. Her analysis has been demonstrated correct time and time again (Invasion of Ukraine, "Death Panels, etc) and everyone else looks like fools in comparison.
It took the combined firepower of the entire Media/Entertainment/Government complex along with all the Rockefeller Republicans in our party, to subdue her, and she still kicks their @$$ from time to time.
The difference in media coverage between Sarah and Hillary is appalling.
Spot on!
