After Sarah Palin resigned as governor of Alaska, some TV pundits and especially those on MSNBC, continue to ridicule her. The result has been that as her ratings have gone up, those who pummeled her continued to sink.

They can’t stop feeding the Energy Creature. hah. I have long stopped getting mad at how unfair they are. They’re doing us a favor.
I completely agree. When the usual suspects spew ridicule, it causes folks to have a look at what all the fuss is about, and whaddayaknow, they find she's not the boogeyman they've made her out to be. Ironically and unwittingly, the media detractors are doing her a valuable service.
After she resigned, the TV pundits actually said she was “finished”. A one hit wonder they said, she'd be forgotten about in a week, blah blah etc.
They have been proven wrong every time. But hey, their constant vitriol is good for Sarah Palin’s bank balance. :)
She is getting the ratings, the fat pay checks, and laughing all the way to the bank, even as her liberal media attackers continue to shed jobs, lose money and lose ratings.
The media are fools, they are helping her.......btw it will be harder to ridicule Sarah as Obama continues to mess things up, people are going to be saying “Sarah isnt taxing me, she isnt messing up our foreign policy, she isnt for the health care bill,....why spend my energy being mad at her and mocking her?”
Answer this question. If you were a foreign potentate, say the King of Saudi Arabia. Who would you fear most: Sarah, with a bible in one hand and a gun in the other, or Hussein bowing and scraping before you?
To: Obama
Can you see the Potomac from my future House?
Just curious. Thanks in advance for your reply. Sarah Palin
Simply because Sarah didn't wilt.
While I have not been a Sarah Palin fan, I have the utmost respect for anyone who rises, faces and overcomes adversity the way she has, rather than retreating. The more I hear her, the better she sounds. That woman has backbone! If she would only stop raising the pitch of her voice and sounding like my ex-wife!
One thing I give more emphasis to than agreeing with a person on their point of view, is trust. Give me a less eloquent, less intelligent, less experienced person whom I trust any day of the week over an intelligent quick talker with charisma and no backbone. Sarah Palin is earning my trust as she is becoming more eloquent, gaining experience, and has the good values which support her intelligence. Intelligence wrongly applied is very dangerous as we have seen from past leaders.
By the way, I am very independent politically... So independent that my political leaning is more “Antagonist Party.”
The result has been that as her ratings have gone up, those who pummeled her continued to sink.
