Sarah was beautiful with a disarming smile that frightened her enemies. She took on the 'good ol boy's'. She had to quit as the establishment was not ready for her. 5 kids are a handful.
Noem is just as beautiful but more serious. She's careful not to copy Sarah's smile. She doesn't have as much to take on in SD and we're in danger of falling head over heels about her. Her enemies will be waiting with their carving knives. Don't be naive.
It doesn’t matter who is running, the sharp knives are always ready. If there is nothing there, they will make it up.
So small-state female conservative governors aren’t to be considered as candidates for president or veep?
Even if, like Noem, they also spent 8 years in Congress?
Would they be okay in your mind if they were male? Ugly? Over the hill?
I like what I have seen from Noem. The left will totally disparage her - South Dakota?! C’mon man it’s barely a real state. And so forth and so on. We have heard and seen it all before.
The fact is that she is the Governor who handled the plandemic the best. I wish our Governor had a fraction of the respect for freedom that she displayed.
Is Delaware barely a state, man? ;-)
I took Rummyfan to be paraphrasing what Noem’s detractors might say, not what Rummyfan herself believed.
No that is not what I think at all. But it is the approach the MSM will take.
Thank you you are correct.
And it’s Rummyfan himself... for future reference.
Palin wasn’t ready for the crap the DC deep state and democrats would throw at her. In fact, I’ll say - even Trump wasn’t ready for it.
And why would they or any decent human being be ready for it? Every time you dig down a layer of filth in media, entertainment, academia government and leftist politics, you find an even worse layer of filth beneath it.
I hope Noem is ready and has a thick skin.
I know...I was responding to the detractors, but didn’t know their screen names here at Free Republic ;-)
“And it’s Rummyfan himself... for future reference.”
Are you a “biological” male or do you just “identify” as one? /S (humor)
Here is what always happens. We pick our quarterback. Then the left starts to throw mud on them.
Then, the weak sisters in GOP start to cry, we have to find someone with less baggage! and start to pull away.
No matter who you pick, there will always be some kind of baggage, and if there isn’t, the enemies will invent it and broadcast it from the rooftops. We have to be willing to stick by our quarterback through the mudstorm or we will always be defeated, and easily so, time after time.
Reminds me of a song.

Yeeeeeah buddy. Buddy buddy buddy bud bud buddaaaay...
Um, sorry, it just comes out, not sure why.... But Ms. Noem is an awesome leader for the fine people of South Dakota and I would definitely support her 100% if I were a SDAK resident. Definitely a bigger set than most men in her political world...
You need real experience. She needs to fear for her seat. She’s had a very safe and comfortable career.
I guess it all depends on what you think is best.
South Dakota has the eighth highest Covid death rate in the US.
So you want a RINO from a blue/purple state?
I don’t consider DeSantis a RINO!
