A nice article stating that Sarah is signaling a Run in 2012! Says her chances are better than most others.

Just another Palin-bashing article...
Which part is bashing? Gives her some advice, but says she has a better chance than the rest...
I don't read it that way. The author plainly isn't a fan... but: that's a far cry from "bashing" Sarah, per se. (YMMV, however.)
The author of the article is no friend of Sarah’s, to say the least.
Leaving the author’s biases aside, it’s also not well reasoned. For example, the author argues that Obama and Palin would continue the policies of big banks and big business begun under W. Then a paragraph or so later, the author argues that Romney, who made his bones in the venture capital world, is the path forward for the GOP. Any author that can’t see this disconnect isn’t worth reading.

"Palin is indeed rogue in the sense that she will be attempting to win national office while being widely condemned and criticized across the spectrum in the world of politics. She attempts to spin this as a positive, as though her ideas are too rogue for the world of politics. However, the reason she is mocked is because she is tragically incompetent and embarrassing for those informed on the issues."
What do you call that, if not bashing?
What most all of the "pundits" just don't get at all is that a large percentage of the citizens of this country are both fed up and scared. We are looking for someone who can take us back to our roots, back to our Constitution and our laws--and common sense.
I think all of this is some of what Sarah brings to the scene.
Also, many of us are probably thinking that Sarah is not an entrenched, "entitled" politician and part of the good ole boy network. She is not a life long politician, she has had an actual life that many of us can identify with. Her family has had to work hard to pay their bills just as most of us do
She's attended PTA meetings, gone to all her kids games, actually cooked their meals, shopped for groceries, etc.
She has also gotten a lot of experience in politics along the way.
IOW she brings a breath of fresh air to the scene. She's actually one of us.
The author called Palin, “tragically incompetent and embarrassing for those informed on the issues”, yet shamelessly omitted citing any issues. Perhaps DecoyJames or KentTrappedInLiberalSeattle could enlighten us on just ONE issue they think will help make the author’s point.
Well said.
If Palin runs, she will win.
Yes, and the Leftists and the Liberals and the Democrats and the Commies and the Marxists and the Radical Ruskies all know that ... and so one must expect a barrage of negative articles & programs about Sarah.
I swore I'd never watch See-B.S. after they installed Little Katie as their news anchor, but I just might have to tune in occasionally to watch her sputter as Governor Palin soars in the polls. LOL
Speaking of “tragically incompetent” — the author’s grammar is atrocious.

See post 7 Kent.
Well she will sure as hell get my vote, my money, my time, my broken glass, my threatening family members I will cut off funds to college etc unless they get out and vote for her...lol
You damn right she will win and then we can flush away all the 60’s drug dammaged flower children congress critters.
Pay back for “Hope and Change” is coming like a train wreck!
Typically, I don't respond to anything as snottily phrased as this -- particularly when the speaker in question hasn't even the basic FR courtesy to ping me properly in the first place -- but, FTR: my own "take away" from the article in question is that the author plainly believes that Governor Palin will run; and (however grudgingly) believes she might very well win, if so.
That the author lobbed her pissy, standard issue oh-but-she's-just-a-big-Alaskan-dummy-doodie-head insult alongside said admission(s) is, quite frankly, a beer too watery and ineffectual for any real Palin supporter to even decently blink at, really, after the past year's worth of bogus ethics charges and Andrew Sullivan-spawned pregnancy conspiracy plots and whatnot.
My gentle advice, in all open, honest sincerity: it's going to be a long, hard three year slog between today and President Palin's inauguration, come '12. You'll burn yourself out long, looooonnnnnnng before that point, unless you learn not to sweat the small stuff.. such as, say (just as a f'rinstance, like) the pitiful squeakings of an online nobody for a wholly insignificant online political site such as "politicallore.com." (Who?)
Take it or leave it. I sleep just as soundly, either way. Over and out. ;)
Sarah Palin is the best thing to come out of American Politics in 40 years. Where she leads—I will follow and so will a great many Americans. She is setting things up for something and I don’t think its another primary run where the GOP can push her down or MSM can slander her as a fool. She’s no ones idiot and when she moves watch out. I believe she is gathering people about her for a run at a take over of the GOP. I would love to see her in Congress. I would even follow her into a 3rd Party and do my best to see this party replace the GOP. She is the future.
I still say its just another Palin-bashing article...
At the end, the author reveals his Romney bias, so there you have it....
And you are correct!
