LOL. Better question is can you marginally like her and not be a deemed a hater, troll, DUer, or enemy of the Republic?
These side-show barkers, who constantly hawk this elixir that Sarah Palin is not up to the challenge, have drunk their own tonic! They haven’t yet presented a credible argument against her. If you’re looking for perfect, Jesus isn’t running!
Palin does NOT represent mainstream Christianity in America. She is dangerous for America with her radically religious foreign policy.
Honestly, I'd be thrilled if Sarah ran for president, but right now she's not even running, so why all the articles about her? Why all the hate against her? The tweaking of people who'd like to see her run. Why?
Of course I know the answer, and I'm glad to see Rush agrees with me too--the answer is FEAR. Abject fear. That's the only reason for level of hatred by those who hate her(including some on the right). They hate her because she is different, she doesn't follow their plans or their suggestions/predictions and still she keeps winning at almost everything she tries, and it drives them nuts. So they attack her again and again with the exact same results. Failure. They keep trying to pin her into a little box of positions, and she keeps breaking free, since they make up most of what they know about her and dismiss the rest.
Many the attacks I see on her policy positions are related to her time as Governor or as a Vice Presidential candidate. This is probably because she isn't currently running for anything. Comparing positions she took while running with McCain or while Governor of Alaska to positions she'd take while running for president is useful but not definitive, since doubtless her true positions on issues would be different trying to appeal to the entire US and running on her own instead of on someone else's ticket, so I'm still not sure why people don't argue some of her philosophy as stated in her book instead of something she said while running under McCain's rules against a hostile media looking for any excuse to bonk her on the head.
So basically, I guess I sort of understand why some people hate her, but I don't understand why they have to publicly state it every couple of minutes and attack anyone who doesn't hate her as some kind of brainwashed cult member. I further don't understand why people who are politically on the right are using left wing attack pieces to state their hatred for her, with the predictable result that since they are left wing arguments, they are based on flagrant emotion, lies, and phony polls instead of solid facts. We on the right should be better than that.
If you don't like Sarah Palin, fine. But at least argue policy positions she is promoting instead of arguing about her intellect, her looks, her family, her gender, or whatever other people say about any of the above. Let's stick to arguing her positions on issues and her accomplishments or failures on said issues.
this kind of poll means nothing now.
Palin will prove herself in the primaries during the debates and her numbers will move with each victory she racks up. But no one is going to just hand Palin or anyone else the nomination they will have to earn it by beating all the other contenders.
Marginally like her. Bwahh! You funny guy!
Fat, lying, and liberal is no way to go through life, son.
Try this :No if you cannot. If you cant accept, no, if you cannot welcome her as the next president then you are the enemy and must be eliminated. This nation only has one hope, just one, and that is if we can convince her to run. If she doesn't we are doomed. And you are one of the biggest roadblocks in this country. Bring back burnings for blasphemy
I am just taking the place of that young conservative freeper from that midwest state who is taking a break. I miss his postings and the shoes are big :)

Prissy Ben Smith, Politico & JournOlister (right)
A tale of one “journalist” and two news stories:
On one hand, we have the story of J. Christian Adams, a Department of Justice whistleblower who testified on the record to ongoing and systemic discrimination at the DOJ. As of today, a good faith search of the Politico site fails to show the name of said whistleblower having ever appeared anywhere on Politico. This includes Ben Smith’s 1200-plus word spread about a single conservative he scraped up who believes the whole Black Panther story is silly (which appears to be the only coverage of the story Politico has bothered with).
On the other hand, we have Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin mangling a word on Twitter. This very same Ben Smith not only found this Tweet worth mentioning, but worth mentioning in a headline where he linked to a blogger who accused Palin of “joining forces” with the “anti-Muslim Bigot Brigade.”
I am simply pointing this glaring hypocrisy and bad judgment out for the benefit of Mr. Smith and his editors who will hopefully soon wake up to the fact that this kind of “reporting” makes them look horribly dishonest – like left-wing ideologues disguised as journalists who have chosen sides.
That can’t be who they are… right?
I'd say the answer is a resounding 'no'.
What I find absolutely hilarious is the fixation some people have on proving that Palin is not qualified to speak her own mind.
Men believe, it takes a man to be President. MO Hillary would be worse that Obama. She is militant and does not care what anyone else wants. Give her the power and watch her wield it mercilessly..MO!
