That should be the headline!!!

Not

Person who we thought was popular actually isn’t

Frontrunner keeps on finishing Third.

I like Ron Paul the best, but Palin is a pretty close 2nd, and I don’t really like any of the others at all. Palin really can’t afford to come in 3rd in these things. She’s supposed to be popular. She should be able to get 500
people to New Orleans to vote for her.

Listen, one of the reasons a lot of us here like Palin is that she’s supposedly popular. We like her, and other people do too (we assume). There is an excitement around her, and that causes large crowds, high tv ratings, etc.
It should also cause at least 500 people. Her support at this stage could be called a mile wide and an inch deep. People will watch her on tv. People will go to a free Sarah Palin show. The same thing is true about Lady GaGa. They buy Lady GaGa records and Sarah Palin books at the mall. Lady GaGa will not be our next President.

Sarah Palin wouldn’t be chosen to be the Republican Nominee because of her great track record of experience in foreign policy. Or any experience of any kind.

Sarah Palin wouldn’t be chosen for the Nomination because Republican Primary voters were completely confident that Sarah Palin’s level of intelligence and overall competence
was unassailable by potentially undecided voters

Sarah Palin would be chosen for the Nomination because Sarah Palin is exciting, we like her, she has star quality, and we think that she might share our political beliefs, but we’re not sure yet.

If we like her because of who she is, or who we think she is, she better prove her case that she is what we think she is. Be popular - win straw polls.

We’re not saying with Sarah Palin - let’s pick a dull moderate so not to potentially offend dull moderates who are potentially swing voters.

We’re saying - we know she has negatives but we don’t care because her plusses are so huge. It’s time for Sarah Palin to show those huge plusses.

People should also try to figure out if Newt gamed the system.
