Absolutely. She personifies the average woman, and the RATS are running scared. She’s to the conservatives what the hildebeast is to the liberals.

Sarah doesn't have much of a chance head-to-head against President Obama in 2012

We shall see about that.

Yes, having her opposite Obama in a debate and having her mention that a famous civil war general is serving in Afghanistan is something to fear.

I for one will vote against her and canvass as well to keep her from the nomination. Her election is a guaranteed 4 more years of Obama. She will be like Bush where everyone around her will be able to convince her to implement their own personal agendas, conservatism be damned.

She doesn’t have the intellectual rigor and broad historical and economic knowledge to be an independent decision maker like Reagan, Bush I, Eisenhower, Nixon.

The left and RINOs. Because she is in AK - she has not been corrupted by DC. Anyone in Washington, DC has some dirt on them that can be used at the right time. The people in power (we probably never know who they are) will use that information to blackmail people.

Almost any person has some skeleton, politicians have a higher probability of some skeleton. Sarah is probably as clean as they come, smart, tough, pretty, uncorruptable which is what scares them. Newt got the same treatment and he was not totally clean.

She scares them because people and families like her a lot - the silent majority.

I'm not sure how the "left" is defined, but with respect to Democratic strategist, they aren't afraid of her - they love her.

Regardless of Palin's exceptional and iconic appeal and popularity with her base, to the rest of the electorate and specifically the swing voter, she's kryptonite. The Dems understand this perfectly well. So long as they can keep Palin relevant and germane and in the public's consciousness, the Dems can paint Palin as the face of the GOP. This has the much intended effect of alienating the middle-of-the-road voter - the voter that often times elects politicians.

Every time that Palin (or any member of her family, for that matter) is talked about in the MSM, the Dems win. An unpopular statement and I suspect an uncomfortable reality for many here to face.

Yes, they are afraid of her. Remember, for a few brief days last year when McCain rolled her out as his choice for VP they were leading Barry in almost all of the polls. The Dems were soiling their pants. Something had to be done ... what was it? ATTACK!! ATTACK!! ATTACK!! Three more years in the political world is a long time, so I wouldn’t put much stock in these “early” head-to-head polls. Sarah will be back and I don’t think she’s afraid of the liberal media. I think she will take her case directly to the people. After three more years of a deep recession she could ask, “Were you better off BEFORE Barack Obama was president? If so, vote for me and I’ll regain our prosperity with lower taxes, lower unemployment and a higher standard of living.”

I believe that their strategy is to target the biggest threat early and drip on that presumptive candidate continually for years until even that candidate's ardent supporters grow fatigued.

This is why Giuliani was out of gas by the time the primaries came around.

no i don’t agree with all of you that the left “fears” Sarah Palin

why do all these average joe obamabots run around hating Sarah Palin? do they have a particular allegiance to the democratic and wish to help bring her down?

the left hates sarah palin because that’s what they do - they hate

they hate “big business”

they hate bush

they hate religious people

they hate people who oppose national healthcare

they hate palin

they hate regardless of any fear

so i don’t buy this that the left fears sarah palin. they just demonize her endlessly to the point that they see her as a person with an IQ of 2 and then use her as a source for their faux outrage
