It’s real simple. Because we all know the RNC would never endorse her as a candidate, the RNC needs to get its act together and put up someone clearly better than Sarah Palin if she decides to run as an independent and the RNC wants my help.
As soon as I hear the old BS about Sarah not being electable and some party RINO is, they’ve lost me. I already know what a DC full of Dems and RINOs is like, and I don’t want that. So they need to run someone better.
I’d really like to comment on the article you posted, but I have no earthly idea what the author was trying to say. It reads like an episode of Kafka goes to journalism class.
That was painful. If I understand this bubbling torrent of cliches correctly the author's political memory evidently extends back to the first Bush administration and not a great deal further. His junior high school English teacher will color this in a sea of red pencil when he finally gets there.
Since she has never had a first chance I would say the odds of a "second chance" is pretty slim, but her odds for a first chance at the Presidency is fairly high.
Brady, I'm sorry. That's a clueless comment.
I for one am now clear on my confusion. LOL.
Glad I could crack a smile. So what’s the RNC line on Sarah Palin?
Will Sarah Palin get a second chance at the presidency?
Sure, four years after she wins the first time.
Do you agree with this guy?
Why Sarah Palin cannot be president

Yes, without question. Can she do it in time for 2012, that's more problematic.
Generally speaking, America loves a great second act - just ask Nixon. People wrote his political obituary after 1960 and then carved in it stone in 1962. Look how that turned out - Nixon won over 300 electoral votes, and would have won close to 350 if it weren't for Wallace. BUT, 6 years (in California and 8 years nationally) also elapsed between when he lost, and when he won.
Politicians are like Beer.
If your only goal is to sell a lot of beer, the idea is not to have a distinct taste like so many of the micro brews, but to be “acceptable” to the largest consumer base.
IOW, the goal is not to see how many people you can get to like your particular flavor, but to be bland enough to not turn too many people off.
Sarah is Alaskan Amber. I love the stuff, but Budwiser outsells it by a huge margin. Sarah’s future, IMO, is to be a form of Beck or Limbaugh.
However, I have one caveat: The Lord may have different plans.

Some Party insiders/RINOs are likely to work in opposition to Palin but the Republican rank-and-file will vote overwhelmingly for her against the others in the field during the 2012 primary season.
Sarah is getting the nomination. Book it.
The RNC doesn't put anyone up for national office - voters do. The national parties don't endorse or select candidates on national tickets - or at least they haven't since the advent of the primary system (I think) in 1908 or 1912 - sometime VERY early in the last century.
Conservatives don't pick candidates. Moderates don't pick candidates and Republicans/Democrats don't actually pick national candidates. Delegates do - delegates who are apportioned based on voter's votes do, and voters include independents. Whomever wins the nomination is going to have to do it the old fashioned way - by earning it.
I wouldn’t feed RomneyBeer to my cockroaches.
I adore Sarah, but yes. I agree she would not be elected.
The Republican party does not support her nor do the majority of Americans,
I think the ‘Rats did too good a job painting her as an airhead.
Maybe take time to build up a good rep, let Americans forget the hatchet job and try for ‘16.

I forgot to include just plain nasty beers. I can’t drink the last half inch of a PBR. I’ve had two of them in my life, both on separate occasions. In both cases, when I got to that last half inch in the bottle it started tasting reminiscent of vomit.
I kid you not. I avoid the stuff now.
Red Oval (trader joes) is awesome for half a buck a can though. :)
>>The writer is illiterate.<<
It is kinda looking that way. ;)
People forget that pretty much anyone can throw something up on the internet.
Yeah, it does look as if he threw up on the internet...
That sure doesn't fit my memory of colorful and intense, and unique politicians like JFK, Nixon, Lyndon Baines Johnson, Reagan, Bill Clinton. None of them were bland or generic.
