The “elderly” who are, statistically, the wealthiest people in the country will vote against anyone who dares to change their beloved socialist security and mediquack programs. The baby boomers will do likewise as they are currently getting ready to descend upon the treasury to get theirs.
I just don’t feel most Americans want the economy dead for four more years, or want gas at $6 a gallon, or want their kids to be crippled by debt. If I’m wrong, I really see nothing but bloody chaos in America’s future. Sarah would be good. Hell, a barrel would be good. Just not Barry. Hell, I’d rather have Bill Clinton. There, I said it. I think it’s THAT bad.
1. She will rally the base that has really been dormant for many years like no other
2. (THE KEY) She will run against the Republican Party...ie (Establishment) NO major candidate since Reagan has really ran against the establishment and that will endure her to many conservatives and even independents that don’t like what the Republican Party has become over the past 20 years
Um, you didn’t actually explain why Sarah Palin will be president.
Make a liberal’s head explode. Vote Sarah.

Sarah Palin is a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN unlike Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein Obama.
Nonsense. Just any conservative can not beat Obama. It is not good enough to be right on the issues, our candidate needs to be able to persuade people, demonstrate a solid understanding of the issues, earn Americans trust, be able to reach independent voters, convince them that the welfare state can not go on as it is, etc.
Now I agree with you about Palin. I believe she could beat Obama. I think she could unite Republicans, movement conservatives, Tea Party folks, those disaffected with the establishment, etc - but it will NOT be easy. I am all for Palin. I really hope she gets in. The day she does I will be lining up to find out how to help.
Saying that, defeating Obama will be especially tough because not only do we have to defeat his ideas, we literally have to defeat the idea of Obama. And while the public may oppose much of Hussein's policy positions, they seem to generally like him personally and like the idea of him - first "black" President, young and hip, almost a celebrity superstar. Do not underestimate how hard is going to be to kick Hussein out of the White House. We can do it, but it is going to be incredibly, incredibly difficult. Just any conservative will not get the job done.
Obama will lose to a candidate who makes this race about him and his socialist agenda. Obama will beat any candidate who is too cowardly to make the fight personal for fear of being called a racist.
If she does, I hope she signs an executive order outlawing inane vanity posts.
Cheers!
Wishful thinking can be close to delusion. Ain’t going to happen. Too many Republicans are turned off totally by her - mostly among female R voters. The question I think about is who is the most conservative candidate who realistically could get 51% of the NATIONAL vote/electors?

I really think she wont even run(really run like file paperwork), I am more convinced NOW than ever. I will even say I think mostly everyone else is wrong on this, every once in a while I get to do that, this is one of them.
You make a case for how horrible Obama is, and then you say that if the conservative base doesn’t get the candidate that they want, they’ll go off in a huff and let Obama win again. You can’t have it both ways. Either people really understand that Obama is a disaster for this country and will support any reasonable candidate who runs against him or they don’t realize that he’s a disaster and will not rally around his opposition. By your own words, conservatives don’t see Obama as a big enough disaster to rally around anyone who doesn’t pass their every litmus test. If that’s the case, you can’t expect independents to rally around Sarah Palin.
