Sarah will crush Hillary. Hillary will forever be associated with this Marxist administration. The only way Hillary stands any chance is by getting out now
I know sarah would never have given a speech like Obama gave tonight. What a disgrace using the soldiers like that as a photo-op before he sends them off to a war he doesn’t want a victory in
Nice strawman. All Sarah did was mind her own business and return to Juneau to finish her term until the leftist vultures descended and tried to ruin her financially and politically.
Therefore, Palin's time would be better utilized if she explained to people why she is something more than a reality star
The author conveniently ignores Sarah's 16 years of political experience, the economic speech Sarah made in Hong Kong, the impact her Facebook page has had in derailing two key issues, the policy issues outlined in her book, etc. More pathetic attempts to "tabloidize" Sarah.
The most compelling evidence that Palin's camp is steering her wrong is the immediate fallout between her camp and McCain's camp following the election.
First of all, there is no "camp" behind Palin, she is not a declared candidate for office of any sort. Second of all, she had every right to clear the air about what happened in 2008. And finally, her and McCain remain amicable friends, unfortunately.
Palin's best option is to show the American people that she can engage in political debate
She HAS been engaging in debate. See, here's the thing that drives me bonkers. Her critics completely ignores her record and sets up a narrative of how Palin is so "divisive" when all of the attacks are coming in from her opponents. They're completely disregarding what Palin has accomplished.
Round one will occur in 2012
Hillary is not going to win because she is too old, she is the past, and people will see Obama picking her as it is - crony Washington politics. Furthermore Palin is not going to be anyone's VP anymore. The author, like so many others who criticize Palin, are completely wrong.
Sarah’s speech would have been delivered within 24 hours of the general’s request. It would have provided the 40,000 troops requested as well as a promise of more as needed. The speech would have been made in the oval office, not as a photo op in front of troops. Troops watching it on TV would have been inspired and eager to get deployed and would not have had difficulty remaining awake during the speech. The words “win” and “victory” and “evil” would have been used. Withdrawing would have been promised only after victory. And all would have been said within in a 5 minute speech.
A few of you have it oh so wrong about Palin and the media. She is not “complaining” about the media.
She is taking the media on.
I’ve been waiting for these GOP pussycats to do this for years. Nobody has done it consistently.
The only way to neutralize the biased media is to consider them the enemy and challenge the basis of their questions and myriad of misrepresented premises.
There is no campaign. She is not a declared candidate.
agreed except for thr 5min part. sarah being sarah would have used some of those great AK sayings. which would just make more of us support her decision.
I am so sick and tired of linguine spined Republicans rolling over for the MSM and democrats. Now one fights back and you complain. Jeez.
I doubt Sarah is going to take anyone's advice. I hope she doesn't.
Obama is not going to run again because he is going to come up against the birth/constitutional issues this time and he knows he won’t get away with pretending it does not exist. McCain won’t be there to protect him and lie for him anymore.
It’s going to be Hillary next time. That is why we should be talking about Hillary’s and Obama’s appology tour, etc. When discussing failure face’s failed foreign policy, we should never forget Ms. Hillary is his advisor - his Sec. of State.
Gov. Palin should get off the victim media thing now. Everyone who matters know what happened to her. She needs to get into popular policy ideas that she would like to give to the US if she were Obama. For example, she should have written in support of the Republican alternative health care reform offering and explained it to the public since the press won’t.
It makes the Palinites furious when I say these things so I will shut up now.
She'll be seasoned, hardened and battle-ready before anyone else even gets out of the starting gate. If they can't take her down now, they won't take her down at all.
I am a Palin fan, and I agree. Having a NYT Bestseller like Going Rogue somewhat negates the victimhood, even though it is quite real. It is an example of how she has/can overcome difficult situations to triumph.
Now is the time to get out there with common-sense policies which will turn this nation and our economy around, and emphasize those.
Hillary's gambit is to have Obama get the blame for the wreckage, while using the governmental infrastructure for her gain while "fixing it". Needless to say, there will be few substantiative changes with Hillary in office, but she has kept herself close to the seat of power while she gets her ticket punched.
Hillary will run on foreign policy, reclaiming the Democratic Party for "the working person' (organized labor), cleaning up the Oba-mess, and will claim she is more experienced because of her term as SoS.
Sarah Palin needs to start making conspicous moves to offset that and negate the apparent advantages it will give Hillary.
The first thing this guy got wrong was thinking that Sarah will ever run as a VP again. “If you are not the lead dog the view never changes.” (Sarah Palin)
The Second thing he got wrong was thinking Hillary could win against Sarah in a debate. Hillary does not have the charisma to stand on the same stage a Sarah Palin. Hillary would break down crying and say I’m in no way tard.

Exactly.
Hope to see it everywhere...
Clueless. More RINO garbage.
An idiotic scenario, to put it mildly.
As you can see in this very thread, one of them has been sniveling uncontrollably, re: That Daemonic Slattern Stubbornly Positioning Herself Between Beloved Saint Mittens and the White House all damned day. ;)
‘Saint Mittens’...LOL!
In one recent interview, I believe with Mark Levin, she referenced the "lamestream media". That was good.
