Hey, I’d love to see her as President. My problem is electability. She could have been refurbishing her career and improving her image over the past year and hasn’t done so.

If you’re going to throw out stuff like “0% Corporate Tax Rates”, you need to be 100% on your game to defend it because the media will gang up tear you an new a-hole. “Sarah doesn’t think super rich billionaire companies should pay taxes”.

I haven’t seen anything yet to suggest she’s capable of delving deep into policy and convincing people to move to her position. Since resigning as Governor of Alaska, she hasn’t been able to convince people she’s not in over her head. It’s one thing to throw out these ideas (which are great IMO), but you have to have the ability to explain why it would be great and how it would work beyond saying “Oh, it’ll create jobs”.

fair enough, but the debates havent started, and you are right, the zero corp tax is an idea she had better know how to defend it. I think she will successful enough, there will always be those invincibly ignorant and lazy.

she has already said she would also end corp welfare-—independents and blue collars will love that

i also think the media might give her a pass for awhile. i think much of the msm would love SP cage match against all these R country clubbers, and then the grandaddy of them all Sarah palin against President Bozo. They hate Palin I know but they know that contest will also “get the highest ratings.” So i think they could well promote it
