Let's slow down on the Sarah chronicles....

Posted on 11/13/2008 9:40:04 PM PST by cherry

folks and "my friends".....I think we are doing a disservice to Governor Palin, the Republican party, Alaska , and all the other fine candidates that could run for president in 2012, as well as giving way too much prep time to the big B.O.....

the Governor needs to go back and govern her state....she needs to be re-elected afterall.....she needs to get off the national stage for a while.....

it does no good to be promoting her so much at this juncture....

lets keep our powder dry....

for one thing, we may be looking at totally different circumstances 4 yrs from now....it may be necessary to find a different candidate...who knows....

I've given lots of money to the McCain/Palin ticket...I like her a lot...

but we have to stop pushing her every day, or people will get tired of it...example...Hillary....

Quite cordially disagree completely.

She needs to be out there defining herself.

And the race for 2012 is on whether anyone objects to that or not.

Slow it down? No. Crank it up.

Good thoughts.

I think it will die down on its own a bit.

I think we are all just grasping for some hope after the historically horrific “decision” make by American voters last week.

Governor Palin will be back, if she chooses, but I too am for letting her escape from the national stage for awhile.

I agree because it gets offensive. Give Palin time to earn all the worshipping that she gets, then maybe she will get some credibility. I’m open to it. You are turning off people when you bend over backwards for someone as if they are being annoited. It would be much better if the perception were that she earned it. She might have potential, but this is the United States for pete’s sake, not the United Kingdom. Please let’s keep this in persepctive.

Nope. Shut down the Sarah machine...for now. Let her be a mom, governor and grandmother and leave her alone, you stalkers.

We all know what she’s capable of doing and have great expectations for her. We’re all tired, need to figure out who will lead the RNC for the next 4 years PLUS we need the energy for the new Black Hitler administration starting this January. Load up your ammos...

We can do many things.

Among them:

1) Attack Democrat stupidity!
2) Recruit socially conservative African Americans
3) Recruit socially and economically conservative Latin Americans
4) Shave of middle-roaders who become disappointed in Obama, so that they’ll moderate their mistake by electing a Republican Congress in 2010
5) Support Bobby Jindal
6) Support other conservative Governors who might win
7) Support Sarah Palin

The correct answer about what to do is “All of the above and more!”

Agreed. She's a solid conservative, wonderful.....and was thrust upon the national stage way before her time.

She's not ready, not qualified, not experienced enough, not qualified enough.

In time, she may be. Now, she's not.

"the Governor needs to go back and govern her state....she needs to be re-elected afterall.....she needs to get off the national stage for a while"

I agree. She needs to spend more time governing and build a background through action. As much as I like her, she is not ready to be president just yet. Of course, since Hussein was elected, the bar for what it takes to be president has been dramatically lowered. Now anyone could be president, because qualifications sure as hell don't matter anymore.

No candidate knows the circumstances they will find themselves in 2 years or 4 years.

Governor Palin may not be the nominee but history would tell us that Vice-Presidents and Vice-Presidential candidates have an advantage over the competition. They have been in a national campaign for the POTUS. She is more recognizable than other candidates.

She can use this to her advantage over the next several years by doing some public speaking, writing a book etc. which gives her an edge.

I don't think anyone has coronated her as the candidate but we should recognize that if she plays her cards right she could be the candidate.

I would trust her instincts and leadership skills.....

but we are making a big hole for her...setting all these expectations up and she can not possibly fill them all....

her important work now is being a great Governor...

she should be included in national political events, write a piece for the WSJ once in a while, do appearances.....

she must be re-elected to carry on her dreams of running for the presidency....that is her base and she needs it....and so she needs to get back to being a great governor...

60,000+ members of Team Sarah beg to differ.
