Longtime readers know that, while there is much that I admire about Sarah Palin, I am still on the fence about any notion that she should run for president....

I understand why they are overprotective; no politician in my memory has ever been subjected to the inarguable savaging that Palin endured after her remarkably effective speech at the ‘08 GOP convention. As Camille Paglia rightly noted at the time, Palin’s natural abilities were so obvious, and so terrifying to the left, that their phasers were instantly set to “obliterate.” The left still can’t believe she has not been dissolved.
Having said all of that, it needs to be pointed out once again that Sarah Palin on a stage–straight up and unfiltered–is One. Powerful. Presence.
She may drop her g’s and she may get a little guttural when she is enthusiastic, and yeah, she may even get a little shrill, here and there, but listen to this audio, and that staccato delivery; you cannot ignore the fact that Palin is a feisty roman candle of a woman; in a world full of dead things* flowing with the stream Sarah Palin is alive! She is wide-awake with that peculiar American Genius that has nothing to do with SAT scores and Ivy Leagues. And she dares others to swim against the stream of kneejerk, unilateral moves from the establishment.
More importantly, Palin is right.

Remember Troopergate? Babygate? Quittergate? on and on.. Now it Fiorina is a RINO time. Each time, there are folks building a story line and using it to trash her. If she is 4th in the polls it is because everyone seems to feel obligated to say how stupid or how venal or how unreliable she is as a first apology. And you wonder why, folks who have looked into it get full of the same lie the 15th time.
She is going to Arizona to defend our boarders tomorrow. She was fighting for the kids in Chicago the day before yesterday and following that up today. She gave speeches at Two massively important events and Endorsed a candidate for Governor today. How the heck does she do it?
Anyone who wants more, really wants less, and they are just lying to you.
Just another DB who should stay home and bake cookies.
Should the preceding comments upset you for more than four hours, cause heart burn or other indigestion's ... oh well.
YMMV, Void where ever taxed or prohibited, see a doctor if ...
Try again.
A little quid pro quo for ya
Something like 71% of them went on welfare the very second they could = when the five year prohibition for doing so was up.
Obviously, you are person of wealth and don't mind higher taxes?
(Ya ya I know - their just here to work yada yada yada)
