>The New York Yankees, Apple Pie and Sarah Palin

There are reports that
she is getting input from
grizzled Fred Malek. *

He's worked with Nixon
and Bush. That is apple pie,
but it's kind of stale.





---------------------------------------------------------

* Fred Malek, a longtime Republican fundraiser who has offered Palin informal advice, said she should try to focus on big themes and ideas. "She should try not to fan the flames every time some kernel of negativity erupts," Malek said. "Let Levi Johnston have his 15 minutes of fame. Don't answer these blogs. Don't answer these tweets. Look at the bigger picture."

With Act II Unwritten, Palin Can Define Her Role

I have a feeling, and I hope, that Sarah will listen, but follow her intuition and heart. She is a patriot and that is all she needs to be a winner.

Give it a rest man. Guilt by association of associations? Where else is she going to get experienced people from, the Clinton administration?

Malek’s a nice guy, and you can tell that he really likes Sarah Palin. But he’s wrong about hhow she shouldn’t fight back. Bush didn’t fight back, and we all bore witness to how well that worked out for him. He left office with some of the lowest approval numbers for a retiring president in history. The media teamed up with the hard left wing of the Democrat Party to destroy him.

The media will attack Sarah Palin regardless of what she does. So she may as well return fire. Schooling them the way she did today was like an adult schooling a child who has gotten out of control and forgotten its place in the scheme of things.

Fight em, Sarah! We small-government conservatives will stand by your side and fight em with you. Defeat is not an option.
