She’s under the radr - that’s why they can’t stop writing about her! LOL
I think AK would do to Palin what CA did to Nixon in 1962: they want to show her who is boss and just how “open-minded” the Alaskans are.
I’ll be on board when she starts to criticize McCain’s conduct since his re-election.....
My guess is that flying off to Arizona for five years to write books and appear on television, only to return on the eve of a primary saying “I want to be your Senator” will not go down well with the folks in Alaska.
I agree. I think when you elect someone Governor you will be disappointed if they don’t serve out their term. I know I would be upset if Gov Deal of GA just suddenly resigned. Its a problem that is going to follow Palin.
Of course if you're one of those people for whom all polls that show results you don't like are "worthless" this is pointless but people on here really have no concept of what the average person out there thinks about Palin (by average person I don't mean "your friends and family that love Sarah too."
Having a 53% unfavorability rating IN HER HOME STATE is pretty terrible. I assure you it's far worse in the country at wide, but since out in the real world nobody takes her seriously as a Presidential candidate they don't poll on it. It may all be caused by an evil media conspiracy, etc. but the reality is its out there and extraordinarily difficult to surmount.
Winters in Alaska are worse than summers in Az.
I will tell you what she could have done (assuming it was legal): set up The Sarah Palin Defense Fund and ask for donations. She would have raised a million dollars in a few days of that I have no doubt.
Sarah DID tried to set up a Defense Fund a d guess who opposed it and successfully got it tied up in court? The same law firm that represented Obama!
I made this same comment a couple of days ago and had many Freepers tell me that it would help her to run for Senate so she could explain why she quit the job. I still don’t know why, but I do still love her. It’s the people who are on the fence I worry about.
P.S. You will be called a troll for even uttering your opinion on this. I know I was even though I have posted here for years and love Sarah.
So educate people, don’t berate them.
I really like Sarah, but I suspect at street level folks in Alaska are hurt and somewhat offended by this.
This is why I love FR. I did not know that she tried to set up such a fund.
It’s been 4 years since and many here and elsewhere have over and over again explain the situation in Alaska but still many conservatives easily buy into the liberal mantra and lies and berate Sarah without doing any research. It’s frustrating that any so call conservative claim they despise the media but then buys into the attacks on Sarah
Yes, I have been around very much long enough to know her stated reason for resigning. So what happens when she runs for Senate and the same folks harass her again? Will she again quit?
Broken courts allowed the legal harassment in the first place. So the answer when a politician (including a popular one) is being run through the harassment mill is to just resign and give those harassing you exactly what they want? Sounds suspiciously like negotiating with terrorists.
Wishful thinking from the GOP-E and Begich's Rat camp.
The only people who call her a quitter are the all the people on the welfare system, the hordes getting on disability, the greenies, and all the other democrats who despise Palin.
If Palin decides to run, she will make Mark look like the fool he is for all his Obama support with Alaskans. Way more conservatives than liberals up here anyway.
I remember when the Yukon washed away the old Indian Village up here when she was Gov. Palin didn't show up with a film crew for her nx election like Phony Tony Knowles did, she walked around on her own; talking to everybody. Palin threw an old coat over her good clothes, jumped on a 4 wheeler and rode out a mud bog trail to see the Indians out the new village on her own. Palin connects with the Alaskan People like no other, she isn't a crooked political, she's a friend.
A “troll” that has been here a year longer than you...
Have fun with that.
By the way, grow up. All humans are or have been evil. Definition of evil can be huge or small. But pure evil that King Obama is is one hell more evil than the few problems Romney had. A person has to have the intelligence to make determinations in this impure world. Obamacare would have been a thing of the past. As Romney has said health care is the States responsibility and not the Federal Government.
