The Rubber Crowd can’t name one because their is no one. Sarah on the trail is a whole different Momma Griz than the one who was toeing Mac line.

Sexy as I am, I wouldn’t want to think about the anatomical logistics.

"Those who fault her for it are ignorant of the reasons why it was the right thing to do."

Uhhh . . . no.

I don't really have a problem with your premise other than those who fault 'Cuda don't do so because they are ignorant of her reason.

I am confused how people like you ‘know’ that she can’t get the votes. I would have put $10,000 down that a guy named Hussein, half way through a first term in the Senate, unknown throughout the country and with no experience running anything at any level would not only beat Hillary Clinton but also go on to win a national election.

Palin, like any other candidate who would choose to run for president, will put together a campaign organization and a platform that they believe will beat their primary opponents, and then win the general. If she runs an effective campaign, she has a chance to win it. She is one of the most capable politicians we have seen on our side in a long time, and it is crazy to see people dismiss her outright.

Wrong, the reason she quit was Democrats for the first time ever were throwing all these phony lawsuits at her that already caused her over 500k of personal debt. Had she stayed in it would have gone to 3 million by the time her term was over.

Her choice was to let her state move on, to stop the bleeding in her families finances and to take advantage of her marketability at this time.

Many people in office are prohibited in making money outside of the pay from the office. So when you make a nickle and you see a dollar fly out the window with lawsuits and lawyers for defense, you make a choice (if you have one).

You are so right: I don’t believe any of the mentioned names are viable.

Name one Republican that can beat her in the primaries?

No offense, but you have no idea what or who is going to happen between now and the primaries that are TWO years away.

Nope, no denying it’s bleak out there. But a lot can happen in two years. Here’s hoping it does, because Sarah Palin will never be president.

She still let herself be run out of office even if it was more profitable to abdicate.

//By the time she would have been done she’d have been so far in debt she couldn’t have run anway. The ethics system of the state of Alaska failed her.//

People forget that a lot it seems.

You are so right: George Washington would be vilified by the American people today as rich, greedy, and uncaring.

Is your "real reason" the reason she gave? No, so you are calling her a liar. She did not say "I'm resigning because I accomplished everything I wanted to do. Bye". I will agree that she accomplished a great deal, but she gave other reasons for quitting. Why not just take her at her word?

Not the American people. He would be vilified by the pro-terrorist MSM.

I can’t.

As I said in my post it’s a gut feeling,and gut feelings are not exactly logical.

All I know is I pray every day that we get the current President out.

I have always learned more from FR than I contributed,so I will keep reading,thinking, and becoming informed.

I know Sarah would win but the Rubber Room Crowd(RRC just doesn’t get it. Real will beat DC elite any day of the week. RRC are still under the false impression of last election and the LSM telling them what to think.

I’m tired of that insinuation that just because one doesn’t think Palin is the greatest thing since sliced bread, automatically makes one a “Mittbot.”

But you have to admit that the "Mittbot" thing is amusing to watch, though, and it might make a good drinking game.
