Yep.....Your Concern is Showing Again.
I am glad we let the Mainstream media Pick our Candidates.
If only we had someone they liked....
There’s no denying that the prospect of the 2016 race has piqued my interest in politics again, prompting me to start lurking on FR more again. I think it’s very important that we nominate a good candidate in 2016 to start undoing the damage that Obama has done, and feel strongly that Sarah Palin is not that person. Because the MSM doesn’t like her, people default into thinking that “the enemy of my enemy is my friend,” but I believe that is a mistake. Like everyone here, I was disgusted with how the MSM treated her in 2008; doubly so because a lot of the cultural touchstones they made fun of her for are common to northern Minnesota where I grew up. That being said, she’s been deflating ever since, leaving me skeptical of her ability to lead anything other than a crowd of enthusiastic supporters (much like our current President).
It’s my bedtime now so I look forward to catching up on angry pings in the morning.
So You Join in Calling her the "Republicans Obama" as an insult.
Charming.

Agree exactly with you. In 2012 I was ready - I gave her plenty of $ - she was definitely running after the Americana video she put out for July 4. And then she wasn’t, giving the excuse of the same family she had had the weeks earlier.
3/4 of Americans are sure she is an idiot. She’s not. But they all are sure she is. The press successfully killed her ability to run for office.
And she has made so many choices toward fame and attention to herself without putting the country first. She looked like what we needed. She isn’t. I still agree with her politically.
The hardest thing to do is to accept feet of clay in famous people once liked. See Bill Cosby.
