Sarah Palin: Thin-skinned, smartly strategic (or both)? [They've no clue how to handle her! LOL]

Meanwhile, tons of former Hillary people are 200% in for Sarah. Check out HillBuzz and many other sites!

Is the current occupant of that office acting presidential? We either fight fire with fire or get beat like a rented mule. It’s not 1976 anymore.

No. He is not. He is a child.

And as I said, I love how Sarah is responding. How she is rallying our base. My only difference with your post, was your take on GWB/Ford being weak. Once in office, in the Office of POTUS/CinC there is a level you must rise to, or should. Both those them did, GWB certainly did. I believe Sarah would to. She would not act like the current child in office does.

But until the say she is sworn into office as POTUS, I love her giving it back in spades to the pathetic MSM.

I've been following politics a long time and I can't remember a national Republican this willing to give back in spades what she has been given.

It's FUN to watch, isn't it?

I love the way she keeps them off-balance.

I campaigned for President Ford at 16, worked for Presidents Carter and Reagan while in intelligence, was an advance man for General Haig and did fundraising for the GOP. The Jimmy Carter back then was much more centrist and moderate than the senile, anti-Semitic man I see on my TV, or he was much better at hiding things.

Bingo. The move is on to put Hilary! at the top of the ticket. Obama is the walking dead. The Clinton Crime syndicate is working overtime. Sarah!! is a big problem for them.

Sarah is anything but thin-skinned. Why, as much abuse as that woman has taken from the left and from the media - even from big entertainers like Letterman - do these politico pencil pushers think they have a chance getting the best of her?

Rendell? I’m not one for giving dems advice but this guy is horrible....a retread...has been. I think he even knows it now. Alvin Greene would add more to the ticket than Rendell.

What a woman... She has more moxie than any “Lindsey Graham” republican in DC.

Like I tell my daughter everyday when I give her a kiss in the morning... “yeah, yeah, yeah... girl power.” Empower them and their courage and we’ll go far.

Stone and behead them in the middle east and our commander in chief wants to bow to dictators and have face to face negotiations with leaders financing the killing of our troops and people stoning their own people.

This is a perfect example of why she has such a following among the “unwashed.”

She refuses to play by the Washington establishment’s rules.

They have no idea how to deal with someone who says what they mean and mean what they say and is guided by personal conviction instead of political winds and the elite’s rulebook.

I should mention that if you watch the VanSustren interview and the interview with Kelly and Baer you will see her pushing back at the Republican elite as well.

She pretty much tells them to get on board her way of doing things or get run over. Personally, I’d like to see RNC blood on the tracks. Better to kill your enemies so you can forget about then than to fold them into your tent and constantly have to watch your back against your “allies.”

The establishment on both sides of the aisle are the enemies of the constitution and the people and they just don’t get it. Look at Murkowski.

I have to admit that I have been a Palin skeptic, but she is surely winning me over. Calling out the media for their obvious bias is brassy and I like it!

I too would like to Sarah Palin put some RNC heads on pikes.
Particularly Karl Rove's head.

You aren’t the only one! She’s beginning to convince us, as well.

anyone that has been buying the “not presidential” line of criticism really should watch those two interviews...

(and I’ll admit that at first I just wanted to vote for her because she’s a hunter and she drove the left crazy...now I’m thinking she’s the remedy for what ails DC)

This is just more anti-Palin hack work by a Domovik apparatchik. Nothing this hack says matters or makes any sense.
