Governor Sarah Palin has done MUCH more for the conservative cause and this country as a whole, even WITHOUT a title and in far less time.
1) Palin, not Scott Brown, is most responsible for the reason why healthcare reform is in jeopardy. (Remember "Death Panels?") --> Mitt Romney instituted socialized medicine in his state!
2) Palin publicly challenged the science of global warming before it became "cool" to do so. --> Newt Gingrich and Tim Pawlenty are "greenies," though they are probably flip flopping on this now.
4) Palin has been a vocal advocate for the unborn far more than any other Republican, before and after she rose to national prominence. She doesn't just "talk" during speeches or "vote" whenever a bill comes up. Palin walks the walk. Her social values put her in the good graces of most Americans, INCLUDING minority and immigrant Americans as well.
4) Palin endorsed underdog Doug Hoffman in NY-23 and allied herself with the Tea Party movement, regardless of the "establishment fallout" that she'd be met with. --> Were John Thune or Mike Pence as bold and aggressive in their willingness to challenge the GOP establishment, before it became cool? No, they all seemed quite "muted" until Palin blazed the trail first. Or maybe it's because, they're PART of the establishment.
Palin has shown time and time again, she's about the people--not about career politics and saving her political skin.
5) Palin has incredibly media savvy, and this will serve her well should she ever become President. She will not let the media control and manipulate her agenda, but will instead communicate directly to the people.
6) Palin's support for our men and women in uniform is not phony -- but genuine and close to her heart. Her own son is honorably serving in the military. HARDLY (if ANY) of our representatives in Congress have any children who serve! Not only that, I trust Palin to take a bullet for a fellow American before any of the other "men" in our government would. Any day.
7) Palin takes on her own worst enemies without losing her integrity or class. She's even willing to challenge the greater culture at large. Even Hollywood feels threatened by her.
8) Palin is unabashed about her faith in Jesus Christ and her Biblical worldview.
9) PALIN has the boldness to directly call out Obama for his lies AND his cronies (like Rahm) for their incompetence and classlessness. NO OTHER REPUBLICAN has been as blunt, up front, and truthful as she has regarding the nature of Obama and his agenda!
10) I'm leaving out many other examples.
Point blank, Governor Palin has proven her leadership, while the others in the running have had MORE time and actual power to do so, but have little to show for it.
Nobody comes close to Palin when it comes to boldness, and sticking it to the progressivist fascists.
agreed. nice post
*PING*
Nice post. I agree with every point. You could add her integrity and loyalty. That’s hard to come by with many of the ‘other’ candidates, that go where the political winds are blowing.
'NUFF said! - The rest of the 'candidates' are PLASTIC CONSERVATIVES!
“9) PALIN has the boldness to directly call out Obama for his lies AND his cronies (like Rahm) for their incompetence and classlessness. NO OTHER REPUBLICAN has been as blunt, up front, and truthful as she has regarding the nature of Obama and his agenda!”
Amen, Friend. Amen!!!!!
Having been one of six boys and two girls of a (my) mother ... having been married for 21 blissful years to the mother of my 5 children ...
I can unequivicably state that being a mother is at least a 70% jump on the politics of human knowledge and governance.
Countdown to accusations regarding her endorsing McCain
5..4..3..2
sarah is the REAL DEAL
ping
That deserves an Amen.
Amen.
Nice post
Sarah Palin, the only Conservative who can beat Obama
Nobody comes close to Palin when it comes to boldness, and sticking it to the progressivist fascists.
Even some with an R by their name.
AWESOME POST!! She also endorsed Sean Duffy this week and told everyone on her facebook page to assist in his money bomb. Duffy is a classy guy, Conservative, great pick. Sarah has made good choices, she chose not to go to CPAC(Turned out to be the right decision) and one of the few on the right who are NOT afraid to go after Obama and his cronies. Sarah has my vote if she chooses to run. She scares the left like no other
Beautifully stated!
A leader leads...others get out of the way or get trampled.
