Palin warned us that if she ever makes a run for the presidency, it would be unconventional. She warned that she doesn't look too kindly to season inside-beltway hirings. She said that she hated the long drawn out running forever campaigns. People may be supporters of other candidates around here and like to beat Palin supporters up with that "she isn't running"...."give it up, she all about making money" theme but it's clear now that she has planned on running for a long time, she and her staff just decided not to tell the media through leaks or buddy-buddy exposes'
Sarah has just blownup all the articles, TV shows, roundtables that ran the past few months from the media that avoided mentioning her name as a potential candidate, that she didn't even existed. With a new house in the lower 48 as a possible campaign base, the hiring a new Foreign Adviser, with her saying that she has "fire in the belly" and telling Obama in the Madison Wisconsin in a wonderful speech that it was "Game On".....the needle points to run, Sarah, run!
Insanity rules for the PDS folks. The Herminator or Gov. Palin would turn this country arond!
(I do kind of want to have a bumpersticker that reads: “Raising Cain 2012”, though!)
The trolls are out in force on this thread. They’re even trolling the keywords: dreaming; notrunning; onceaceleb; palinlovfest; quitters4palin;
Certin PDS trolls always show up on Palin threads, alwaysposting their same tedious, tiresome debunked gripes. I’m almost always too busy to even bother reading their idiot posts.
They’re broken damn records, filled with hate. Miserable, small people, like democrats. Hey, maybe they are? !!!!
Or the anti Cain rhetoric. I frankly like both at this time, and want the process to weed out the chaff. Cain has to prove himself, but so far I prefer these two over the others. Time will tell.
;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)
Don’t get me started. Oy.
Ahhh. You base these assumptions on your careful studying of "her record."
That being the factual case, surely you can tell us what you found in studying "her record" that shows she is:
1) Unqualified.
2) Unelectable.
3) Unable to beat Obama.
I sincerely appreciate your logical and verifiable approach to this. Sway the vote to your camp. Explain those three little points up above, which we believe when you tell us you arrived at by reviewing "her record."
What in "her record" proved to you she is "unqualified?"
What in "her record" proved to you she is "unqelectable?"
What in "her record" proved to you she "cannot beat Obama?"
We're waiting.
;-\
I found some interest in a comment by Cal Thomas. It may be a psychological play on conservatives values of GOP voters for perceived attacks on a woman. One of those unintended matches that click. When being thin-skinned is your primary M.O. ... Try a keyword search and you'll find 420,000 hits on “Palin” and “victimhood”. And yes, you'll find tons of conservative and unbias sources.
Your examples (just a few) ...
* she positioned herself as the victim after the Arizona/ Gifford shooting.
* whining over Caroline Kennedy being treated better than her while she campaigned (Ziegler documentary). Event she was shown Kennedy was hammered... the video, yes video, misrepresented her.
* Palin couldn't name a book she's read during the Couric interview. Not her fault...Couric set her up with that tricky question.
* she may not win because men have it so much easier (Oprah interview); “I don't think I was to blame for losing the race.”
* Family Guy? They go after everyone....there's Palin standing on a martyr's soapbox for several wks complaining about her treatment.
* Newt's a big boy....I dont think he needs Palin crying racism for Newt on every network (David Gregory).
* Rham sent an email using the phrase “f*** retarded” to describe other dems. Was it wrong and boneheaded? Of course! Nonetheless Palin milked that as an intro to other topic interviews for nearly a month. Disappointing to see her jump off topic so quickly. Did she go after Beck for his following similar, sans vulgarity, comment? Of course not. How about the same situation with Rush? Naaah.
* Why did she step down as governor of Alaska. Because of the media (not honest).
* McCain's fault, her/his handlers, her staff, establishment GOP, the media, bloggers.... Who else did she blame for 2008 while on Oprah.
* the entire MSM is out to get her. Yes, they're difficult and unfair. Having said that ... please reference her family's new income status as a result. That street is paved both ways.
I could go on with examples for days ...
Electability?
Recent polling, from several of the agencies, show Palin’s negative rating to be the highest among potential GOP candidates. More than double most of them.
Her floor voting block is believed to be around 36-38%. Obama’s is about 44%. Then you begin looking at independents and swing votes. How many latinos campaigned with Palin? How about african-americans? Asian? You get my point ...
Unfortunately, the vast majority of our population isn't as skeptical of the media as necessary. Is Palin singled out? Yes.. its fairly obvious. Does she handle it well? Not even close.
Reagan's biggest asset was his charm, likability and quick wit. Palin is the polar opposite... that's another major flaw with Reagan comparisons. Strong conservative beliefs alone cannot win an election and Palin is missing several intangibles.
“It is not propaganda that she resigned half-way through her term that is a fact. And if you dont think the left will remind the voters of it everyday of the campaign then you better get back to hiding in Mas basement.”
Leftists and people who have very little brain. Which are you btw lol?
“Theyre broken damn records, filled with hate. Miserable, small people, like democrats. Hey, maybe they are? !!!!”
They are probably not Democrats. They probably are liberal statist RINOs.
Whatever they are with their blunt attacks...they are small.
Say hello to Pissant when you join him in the land of the banned, noob.
PISSANT!!! Is that you? Who else rolls into misogyny so deftly. I might be wrong though. There was no mention of Falcon Party favorite Duncan Hunter. ZOT ya later.
Banned because I don’t believe someone is electable? I’m sorry... I’ve seen a lot of disagreement on the board. That inability to handle a disagreeing opinion is more representative of a personal challenge (you’re projecting). Enjoy your evening ....
Tons? Name some.
Your examples (just a few) ...I could go on with examples for days ...
I'm sure you could. Especially with your formula: Defending oneself = Victimhood
Recent polling, from several of the agencies...
The agencies, huh? What is the make-up of people voting in these polls and why should we decide on a candidate based on what they think?
Unfortunately, the vast majority of our population isn't as skeptical of the media as necessary.
I'm sure you find this very 'unfortunate'. Your 'concern' is noted.
Then you begin looking at independents and swing votes.
What positions/policies should she adopt or abandon in order to win over independents and swing voters?
How many latinos campaigned with Palin? How about african-americans? Asian?
What should she do in order to get more voters from these particular groups?
I’ll you Buh Bye....
Effing Retard.
I’ll call you Buh Bye....
Effing Retard.
(fixed)
OK ... Sir Precious. zot
Not so sure if that was pissant in another form. Pissant was a racist as well as a misogynist.
I don't think you'll be around in a few months.
