Sarah Palin was arguably the most influential person in 2008, but no one notices because she wasn't influential enough to overcome the deficits of her running mate and win the election.
Until Palin, 45, burst onto the scene, Obama was headed for a Nixon/McGovern landslide. Palin may not have changed the election result, but she killed what otherwise would have been a rout.
John McCain was so preposterous a candidate (at least on a Republican ticket) that Palin was responsible for far more votes than the usual vice-presidential candidate. The biggest red flag proving her popularity with normal Americans is that liberals won't shut up about her. Palin is a threat to liberals because she believes in God and country and family all values liberals pretend to believe in but secretly detest. There's a reason there's no "Stop Olympia Snowe before it's too late!" movement.

Palin PING!
Anyone on or off the Palin ping, write me.
Sarah’s day will come. her time will come.
I agree..just check out her twitter page..already almost 9500 followers in less then 24 hours..That says A LOT..she is extremely popular and her day will definitely come which of course drives the libs crazy
Don’t forget The Rules, you guys.
I think half of the rules have been followed.
She simply needs to be perceived as more Presidential and less Little House on the Prairie and she will lead this nation back to reality....which it SORELY lacks. She is soooo right for this country!
Sorry my brain is fried thinking about a rule for when Coulter writes about Palin.

And Sarah has the 'scientific methodology' system thinkers with their collective panties in a wad... Only they are trained to observe nature and formulate whatever laws they deem required to protect their system.... The highly most fit moderates.
Politically and otherwise. ;^)
A little off topic, but how did they get 44 minutes of video on you-tube. I thought it was 10 minutes max?
Ann Coulter... didn’t she also say she’d vote for Hillary?
Add me to your list.
I voted for Palin!!!
I don’t know. Perhaps it’s some sort of special account? In any case, there seems to be a problem with the video today. It had worked the last time I tried it about a week ago.

Please put me on your Palin ping list.
Yes, Ann said she would vote for Hillary, and me too. The proof is here and now. Hill is WAY more moderate than Bambi and McCain. I think we were both right.
ROFL! Wait till Ann finds out Sarah's pics were posted to an Ann thread before hers were.
It’s a perk for special Youtube accounts that you have to pay to get.
