Maybe. But I purposely deleted Bachmann from my tagline after she unleashed RINO Ed Rollins to trash the Gov.

I remain open to a Palin/Bachmann ticket IF Michele keeps Rollins on a tight leash. Other than that, like Sarah I'm keeping my powder dry.

While there would be some amusement to that, I fail to see what Bachmann brings to the ticket that Palin doesn't already get elsewhere.

As to the article...

She knows once she jumps in the race, the game is hers. She knows her ground game is being quietly assembled by people who are passionately committed to helping her win the presidency.

I wouldn't go as far as to predict this, but I would not be at all surprised that once she jumps into the primary contest that she'll make it look easy.

Of course, as with most things that look effortless, the long and difficult work of getting there is simply not visible, not that it never happened.

One of the things which I find most compelling about Sarah Palin is her ability to play the media. Remember that she majored in journalism and worked briefly for a television station. She understands the groupthink and the egotistical nature of the business. Even if she was not classmates with the talking heads of the national media, she was classmates with the wannabes and understands their mindset.

Guys like McCain, Romney and Bush never got it (maybe GWB did by the end of his term)-- they think by being nice, accessible and accommodating, the enemedia will occasionally return the favor.

Sarah knows better. More important, she knows how to use the enemedia to her advantage. This is a talent which comes along once in a generation. Ronald Reagan had it as well though his tactics were slightly different-- he'd pretend not to hear them or ignore them rather than directly confronting them.

Make no mistake. ObaMao is not the enemy. He is merely a tool of the enemy. The enemedia are their enablers. Defeat ObaMao, and there is a long line of willing tools waiting to take his place. Destroy the credibility of the enemedia and there is a decent chance this nation can be pulled out of our downward spiral.

That would almost make MY head explode, albeit for different reasons.

It's an nteresting concept, but it might be a bit too 'out there' to sell on Main Street. Sarah and Michele are almost interchangeable in some people's minds.

Dunno. We'll see.
