Palin can 'snap her fingers' for money, run and beat Obama, warns GOP expert
examiner ^ | June 8th, 2011 | Devonia Smith

Posted on 06/08/2011 2:21:14 PM PDT by GonzoII

How easy would it be for Sarah Palin to raise enough money to run and beat Obama? A GOP expert today claims all Palin would have to do is, "Snap her fingers," with a warning that Democrats should be careful what they wish for. Thus, on Fox News today, the fight was on when Ben Chao, a Democrat who boasted that his "firm beats Republicans for a living," tried first to make light of Democrat losses in the 2010 election and finally quipped, "I dream about Sarah Palin," as an opponent to President Obama in 2012.

In a quick warning to all Democrats who bluff that Palin would be an easy win for Obama but Romney would make for a tough match, Dee Dee Benkie, expert GOP strategist, narrowed her eyes and cautioned, "Be careful what you wish for. It's funny how the Democrats keep beating up on Sarah Palin. I just think that's curious."

...snip

"Snap her finger, she will raise a ton of money," responded Benkie with smug confidence, adding, "if she gets in - and I think she's in."

When Benkie was asked if Sarah Palin was "ready" to be president, Benkie didn't hesitate, "Yes, of course. And I think she would beat Obama."

When Benkie fielded the inevitable subject of how polarizing Sarah Palin is ,of polls showing independents would never vote for Palin ,she quickly dismissed that subject with, "Who cares about those people? That's fine. Those people are not going to vote for her. The key is, it is a challenge for the independents, but she will motivate the base, will over-produce with the base, so you cannot count out Sarah Palin."

“.....how polarizing Sarah Palin is....”

####

No more “polarizing” than the America-destroying RaceMarxist, or the oily Bill Clinton.

Sarah would have to pick an old time RINO for VP in order to get the old Time RINO’s to back her, but if the Republicans can get their act together, and stop bickering about her ,and get behind her she can win in a walk.

Palin-Demint sounds good to me.

“WE not only have to beat the democRATS but also the old senile Republican
elitists.”

They are old in their evil, but they are not senile.

I will commit $1,000 to this fine lady the moment she declares. And followed by a like amount after she wins the primaries.

I have a few brand new, crisp $100.00 bills just waiting for Sarah's first post-declaration money bomb.

Each one is worth at least $75.00 "2008" dollars...

I'm guessing the liberals think that America isn't as upscale as England.

The British put Margaret Thatcher in charge. God forbid, U.S.A have a woman as our leader.

I can only recall how the Left kept insisting “Star Wars” wouldn’t work back in the 1980s-—yet the USSR spent 80% of its propaganda budget trying to stop a system that “wouldn’t work.” Uh huh.

She snaps her fingers and I will donate. When she gave that speech when she was picked for VP, I donated to the McCain ticket. This time it will be twice as much to her, not the pubbies.

We need a conservative in the top position to pare back government or we are done.

Didn’t even think of the monthly way to donate! Great idea.

I have coin jars all around my home. When she announces, it’s all going to Sarah.

He’s right.
I’ve been waiting to write a nice big check to the Palin campaign for a long time.

Say the word Sarah! Just say the word.

Biggest campaign war chest in history will be hers.

I hope she runs, because I think it’s the ONLY story that’s going to stop all the incessant “weiner” stories ...which I am already far, far OVER.

I want the talk to return to how the HE*^ we’re going to get out of the fiscal, physical, societal and spiritual mess this country is in.

It’s been a good life so far — I’d like it to continue. I’d like to enjoy my grandchildren in peace, without having to pay $30 for a loaf of bread, or defend my home against maurauders.

She won't have to snap her fingers. All she would need to do is say “I'm in” and her coffers would be filled beyond belief.
Obsama knows this. That's why he said he wants a billion dollar war chest for his debacle.
