A lot of Buzz already about Sarah running in 2016. From Palin4President comes a wealth of information. Some snippets:
"Romney lost because he simply couldn't turn out the vote. McCain/Palin turned out 6.2 Million more voters than Romney/Ryan did and that is all it would have taken to beat Obama this time around if you look at the numbers. Perhaps Romney should put some thought into what is was that McCain had that helped produce an extra 6.2 million votes, that helped create the tidal wave of the 2010 mid-term victories... here's a hint... she wears lipstick."
"A team of Palin and Martinez or Rubio or even Cruz would have tremendous possibilities in gaining the votes of women and Hispanics."
"But it is a very good day for Palin too, who will now, as she said clearly last month, challenge the very existence of the Republican Party and the Eastern establishment as she has been doing from the first."
"GOP Doomed Forever By Demographics Is Rubbish; 3 Key States Lost By Under 2%.There is a clear Path to a 2016 Win."

I'm on the older side, and I certainly remember President Reagan, and Sarah Palin is not Ronald Reagan.
Whatever the media narrative may have been, Reagan had thought deeply about many issues, studied them, was speaking about them during his time at GE, well before he ran for office. He was twice elected governor of California. Candidate Reagan's interviews were different from Candidate Palin's.
A month or so ago, my brother was a cameraman for a TV network covering an auto race and Sarah Palin showed up. The TV crew and race fans went nuts trying to meet her and take her picture.
I think you already know where I stand...

First Order Adherent
Abbey of Trollhenge
Cult of Palin
Of course, I only post that in jest, but it’s not far off the truth. I’ve personally not seen another patriot of her measure, step up to the plate and go to bat for everything we hold near and dear, since 2008.
If Sarah takes stock of what just happened in this race, and decides that she’s going for it, do or die, I’ll be right there with her, backing her 110%.
Bwahahahaha.
You must be just another stupid c*nt conservative.
Sorry, had to act like a KOS poster....
*Needing to go shower*
:-)
I think you all know who for!
Voted. Thanks for the ping.
Until such time as we have a truly honest election process it will not matter who runs.
Totally agree. Let her talk on Fox and play king maker and rally the troops. That’s her calling.
She’s not equiped to run the country, she never was.
I like her...I like her for what she does now.
She has my vote.
No, of course she’s not Ronald Reagan, but Ronald Reagan was a national laughingstock to the very same types of people who have laughed at Palin.
Surprise, surprise. Your initial concern was that others couldn’t see through the caricature—but now I see that you believe the caricature yourself.
She’s regularly had higher approval ratings than Romney did right on through to the election. Somehow, I don’t think you were so worried about that.
Palin could run, but she needs to rebuild her image - from no fault of her own - first.
We can be pretty sure that as chief rah rah type, she’d be great. As a party leader she’d be great. As president, she has as many qualifications, and far more than currently required. Her ‘ideas’ if acted upon are pretty much agreed on by the conservative and even PDS wing to be what is needed.
So why say she is not equipped? By every metric I can think of she is. I think most just oppose her because ‘she’s Palin’ and for no logical reason. If I’m wrong, (and the million posts on FR to date never once explained how she is somehow unfit) I’ll admit it.
The whole “bad idea’ thing is meaningless without a solid argument to back it up. And this go around, the Anti-Palin wing needs a pretty good reason.
Dunno if I got another 4 years in me for this Windy.
The stupid of the modern American burns ;)
That may be her calling, but the idea that she's not equipped to run the country is just plain wrong, a stereotype from the pit of leftist hell. Why conservatives say that kind of crap is beyond me, it's so foolish.
The Anchorage writer got the savant part right but not the political.
Yep. I met and spoke with Sarah Palin. She exudes charisma. She was born with a gift for leading. She would be fearless against her opponents.
Good to be back on the same team Lake ;)
Just because you make speeches and rally crowds doesn't mean you are ready to take the most powerful seat in the world.
Two years as a governor and a couple of months as a failed VP candidate isn't the most inspiring resume.
She's had her time, it's time to move on.
Sarah would be an all around great candidate! She would take crap from NO ONE.
She wouldn’t skirt around our current administration letting Americans die in Benghazi! She would point out again and again our dire economic situation, our food and gas prices rising far beyond the means of many hard working Americans; the utter ineffectiveness of our Federal government when it tries to deal with natural disasters, health care and, on and on! She would fight like a democrat!
Yes, we have to learn to overcome the eye rolling when we tell a family member or a relative that we are Sarah 2016 All The Way! They’ve been brainwashed by the media and it is up to us to reverse the brainwashing. It won’t be easy but our country is at stake.
Ordered my Sarah 2016 bumper stickers today.
