I don’t care how qualified, I could never vote for someone named “T-Paw.” Sorry, but that’ the worst political name in history. I’d rather vote for “Gutsball” or “Panoramic View.”

T-Paw. Cripes.

It has been relatively peaceful since Pissy went somewhere over the rainbow.

[chicken head]

she will have my vote- again

[E. Pluribus Unum]

All the RINOs are irrelevant.

It belongs to Sarah.

And since it belongs to her, she can take her time.

the pissant has been Zotted from FR for a few weeks. We need to see who takes his place.

Sarah’s biggest obstacle will be the MSM/DNC working with the RNC to lock her out. And the fact that almost all Jews, Blacks, and other minorities are terrified of her for some inexplicable reason.

I say, “Drill Baby Drill!”

I have no problem with Sarah Palin, but some of your dismissal of the other candidates is simply flawed.

“National polls” mean nothing at this point. In fact, few polls mean anything at this point but nothing at all matters today except the voters in the first couple of states: Iowa, NH and SC. And Cain for instance, who will be attractive to many folks who also like Palin, is polling very well in those polls.

I agree Huck dropping out helps Palin, since Huck voters probably like Palin too - but your analysis needs some tweaking IMHO.

Pissy (blessedly) has left the building.

Great article, but the Gelded Old Party will nominate Willard next year and basically tell conservatives to stuff it. Then we’ll be ordered to get behind Romney or else (”Whatcha gonna do, vote 3rd Party?”). A repeat of 2008.

[chemicalman]

Well, I guess everyone’s IBPR.

What happened with pissant?

[RockinRight]

11. Sadly, when she becomes the nominee, she will lose so badly that it will make Goldwater’s results look almost close.

2)Lack of a viable stalking-horse on the right. Whatever you think of Bachmann and Cain, they are dark horses polling at most 5% of the national vote while Palin constantly polls in the first tier. With Huckabee's departure, I expect Palin's momentum to surge and whatever increase in support they had to fall by the wayside. Why? Because the base of the GOP will come to realize neither MB or Cain can win. They will eventually go with the winner and that is Sarah Palin, if you are a conservative

If Palin doesn't run, however, Cain will probably get 70% of her support.

[Red_Devil 232]

I don’t know for a fact but I think he used some very disparaging words about Sarah.

[RockinRight]

He dared to go against the Oracle of Sarah.

I guess I shouldn't be so hard on her. I just really think we need to examine reality if we want her to be the nominee.

She will have an extremely difficult time beating Obama - EXTREMELY difficult. It doesn't take a genius to figure that out. Independent voters seem to be inexplicably scared of her and without their vote, we cannot win.

We can argue all night as to whether or not it's Palin’s FAULT she has high negatives (it is only due to her naivete in dealing with the media), the fact still remains that SHE DOES.

Blaming your foreclosure on your job loss might be true, but it doesn't get your house back, it's the same thing here. Blaming Palin’s negatives on unfair treatment by the media might be true, but it doesn't magically give her a 60% approval rating.
