How can I get a hold of that $495 ‘66 Mustang?
Do you have Mit’s phone no?
Most of you Palin supporter, remind me of the Ross Perot supporters of 92.
How so Perot? Didn’t have half of the enthusiasm or base that Palin does. Perot was never taken seriously as a leader of the conservative movement whereas Palin has big bonafides with the Tea Party that swept the GOP into power in 2010.
You cannot see the real world, because your view is blocked by your fixation on the person.
Wrong Wooly! we’re tired of supporting lackluster milquetoast candidates such as Romney and Bush. We are tired of having Presidents who pretend to be conservatives but then go back on their promises and use their “compassionate conservatism” or “bipartisanship” that screws us and America over. By the way talking about fixations you and all the other PDSers on this site seem to have a very unhealthy obsession with Palin and why she shouldn’t run or be POTUS maybe you should stop being obsessed with thwarting her support and just see what happens in two years.
Sarah Palins poll numbers among Independents suck and she cannot get elected without them.
Obama’s losing indies left and right it’s not a big stretch to think that if Obama and Palin were to go head to head that she couldn’t capture a lot of these indies Obama lost. Especially, if the economy is still in bad shape.
The news media will tear her apart which will drive potential crossover voters away. You may not trust the MSM, but a lot of older voters still do.
Bo freaking hoo. I’m so tired of the LSM picking our candidates. The press tried to destroy Reagan and he played them like a fiddle and won the Presidency, Palin can do this as well. And she has been doing this through interviews, tweets and her Facebook. Boy I would love to see the damage Palin could do when she’s in 2012 mode.
It is a fact that like good ole Ross is gonna showem, she cannot get elected in 2012.
Says you, she has an excellent shot for POTUS. You can’t determine who the nominee is going to be or the President in 2012. So maybe you should stop trying to convince us that she can’t get elected? What do you have a crystal ball?
Phooey on youey!
Lunacy,,,the comfort of “white man” rule you speak of is EXACTLY why we have Obama now. With the exception of Reagan, we have had about 40 years of white guys that are elitist wusses who mostly excel at giving the finger to average Americans. Carter, BushI, Clinton, Bush2, Dole, etc etc,,.
Obama was elected because people know that something is very wrong. 30 years ago we had a debt limit of ONE trillion, now it is up near 15 Trillion. Obama seemed like an outsider. All anyone know about him for sure is that he WASNT from inside the beltway. So they followed their emotions. (incidently, this was Carters main asset in 76)
He has had his chance and failed. Like 1980, Obama and the Repub establishment will be repudiated for someone who loves America and AMERICANS first.
She already has the support...Cheneys; Von Susteren; etc.— money, money, money.
Megadittoes to you and this post!
Wow.
Yes, Obama has been good for D.C.
D.C. is a tiny fraction of the voting populace.
Did you sleep through the mid term elections? Have you heard about the Tea Party movement?
History is being made and some of you people are clueless.
Sarah is going to walk away with the nomination and win the White House in a landslide. Just watch.
This guy proves the old adage:
There are none so blind as those who will not see.
“Clueless” doesn’t begin to cover people like this.
“The news media will tear her apart which will drive potential crossover voters away”
And they WON’T tear apart Huck,,the fat guitar playing preacher with his fat kids? They WON’T tear apart Romney who cannot possibly criticize Obamacare, likes abortion, and is a scary “mormon”? etc etc,,,
If you are picking candidates by trying to decide who the mainstream media won’t “tear apart”.. you are exceptionally naive. McCain was their boy,, their “maverick”, until of course, he got the nomination, at which time he magically turned into a senile old man.
Lots of people are totally wrong about things they are very sure of.
And I think the idea that because Obama is a black man people won’t vote for a white woman is wacky. I’m quite sure, for example, that Obama’s Democrat detractors by and large would vote for Hillary.
I hope more and more people keep saying she “can’t”. And I “can’t” wait to watch MSNBC the night she wins.
“the downside to the second strategy is spot on. my wife was all for Al Gore vs. Bush...until the debates were over.
she saw Gore as a condescending jerk with his eye rolling\sighs\talking down...”
I think Obama’s elitism is going to bleed through. Biden didn’t come of as an elitist with Palin but his are blue collar roots. Obama is an elitist, a Hyde Park leftist and it shows. It is going to be very off-putting.
Very cogent analysis. Gives one hope.
BTTT
Thanks for the excellent post and for amplifying on what I was getting at.
