Huckabee: “No question, she will be a very, very strong presence and force, if she gets in,” Huckabee told reporters in Des Moines Sunday. “You know, she may run away with it. And that’s one of those things everyone needs to be prepared for"

I live in reality, not in alternative world. She will be a disaster. Winning the Presidency requires forming massive coalitions and inspiring a whole nation. She has shown no such talent so far. In fact, quite the opposite. She has shown that she can keep digging the “polarization” hole deeper each day.
And if the ticket doesn't have Palin on it too, epic fail.
I Huck knows what’s good for him he’ll stick to his knittin’ and work that gig he has on FNC for all it’s worth. He does a fair-to-middlin’ job at it; thanks in large part to the guests he has on.......such as B.J. Thomas this weekend. He probably pulls down a decent paycheck from FNC, too. But I think he’s damaged goods as a politician. IMHO
If she has any chance she will need Independents, but not many are going to pay attention to her with her 3 octave-singy-songy speech pattern. She has to learn voice control and lower her voice an octave. That’s what Thatcher had to do before anyone took her seriously. But Maggie was a serious politician.
This ain't "Morning in America" anymore, FRiend...when a happy warrior like RR captured the nations mood and won.
We are in a period of deep polariztion....Dusk rather than Dawn.....dark times are heading our way and people know it.....think pre civil war kind of times.....at that time the biggest polarizer of them all was old Abe Lincoln.....half the country hated the man and warned that if he was elected.....he was and they did.....SP will run AND WIN precisely because she will polarize the nation like Lincoln did......could you ever imagine RR calling the media and her political opponents "Corrupt Bastards" ?? No. Me either. But she did and her base (guys like me) LOVED IT.....and what is more the woman doesn't give a crap that the media hates her....they always will and she knows it....so she goes right over their head with a silly travel log show...and her ratings go through the roof.....she knows the game and the times we live in. THAT is the REAL WORLD circa 2010, FRiend !!
could you ever imagine RR calling the media and her political opponents “Corrupt Bastards” ??
She can change my view/opinion of her. Absolutely possible through the campaign. So far, she seems to be going backwards. Calling the media “lamestream media” and calling Alaska CBS affilate “corrupt bastards”. Taking on Rove, taking on WSJ reporter. Geeez...stop it already. Show more seriousness than that if you want to lead this nation.
She is “consumed” by the critics and criticism.
By definition you know America has no leader. Psych 103
You have it absolutely backwards.
We finally have a real politician who will stand up to the Establishment, whether it be Rino hacks like Rove, or corrupt media DNC whores.
She has taken Obama on while limp ducks like Romney stand back and let Palin do the work.
She has not done nothing to take on “Obama”. The real hero of Obama opposition was Mitch in the Senate.
All she has done so far is perform the “duty” of an arm chair General.
Sending Tweets and posting Facebook blurbs is not really “opposing Obama” or worse “take him on”.
Reality, you sound like you are out of your mind. Keep eating journolist propaganda for dinner. No one else is.
Well, again you are backasswards wrong. She has taken on Obama with speeches, fundraisers, rallies for new House members etc., including facebook.
She is not the co front runner for the nomination and if you don’t realize that, you need to read more politics.
Who has done more than Palin?
Name the conservative that has a better chance to beat Obama other than Palin.
Blaming me is not going to get “one more vote” for Palin the polarizer. I am on Freerepublic tonight (not reading propaganda elsewhere).
Beating Obama in 2012 is the first goal. Building a “conservative majority” based on the 2012 win is the second (and more important long term goal). That is a tall order.
Palin koolaid drinkers have so far resorted to name calling, hope and prayer, and other tactics.
Not a single one of them actually articulated how the two goals can be achieved with Palin in the driver seat.
“she is the co front runner...”
“Sending Tweets and posting Facebook blurbs is not really ‘opposing Obama’ or worse ‘take him on’.”
This would be true, except for the fact that it’s devastatingly false.
Palin’s tweets and other statements against Obama have focused the eyes of millions on the destructiveness of Obama’s deeds. And Palin leads everyone else. Nobody has opposed Obama like she has.
Then the MSM would run a solid 6 month campaign of derision, malice and hatred towards her. Every gaff, intentional or not, real or imagined, would be plastered around the world. She would become an international laughing stock. No one votes for a laughingstock.
You are too cowardly to pretend to be a conservative, quit trying.
Waaaa, the media doesn’t like Palin, waaaa.
They didn’t like Reagan either, they castigated him.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
You must have missed that great thread earlier that cited her time in the PTA as qualifying her to get those jobs done...I kid you not, the PTA.
Nobody has dared to oppose Obama like Palin has done, because nobody is as fearless as Palin.
And you still think we don’t have a leader? You still think we don’t have a nominee for 2012?
And you can’t name anyone who can beat Palin’s ability to build grassroots support. Nobody can draw crowds like Palin.
