Could someone please translate that into English for me, or is my brain not working tonight?

She hasn’t had a first chance at the Presidency yet.

I was in Alaska last week and took this pic. She's still very popular there.

Considering this is dated August 3,2020, perhaps this is a look into the future.

Sarah has my vote if she decides to run. The RNC needs to put up someone better if she decides to run and they want my vote.

And I don’t mean “electable,” either.

BETTER.

I'll try....

Felix is apparently going thru puberty and attempting to sow his wild oats. Which is understandable given how hot Sarah Palin is right now .. I look at this as a good thing, a yungun such as Felix may be able to sell Sarah Palin to all his adolescent friends and turn them against such nasty curmudgeons as Pelosi and Reid, and maybe even Schmuckie Schumer or even The One Obama!!! Ya never know.

Otherwise, never stop an adolescent in heat when he's on the right track ....

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.

The American people have had to bare the burden of over rated [overrated] politicians and empty political promises for a decade. Sarah's approach to the white house [needs to be capitalized] must reflect a different image then conventional politics...

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.

Will Sarah Palin get a second chance at the presidency?

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.

Sure, four years after she wins the first time.

So far she has made no attempt to such a resolution, and seems content with politics as usual.

Most idiotic sentence of the day on FR. If not the year.

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.

That’s some pretty tough reading, but here’s a start on a translation: affective = effective, bare = bear.

Capitalization, punctuation, contractions, sentence beginnings and endings, verb agreement, coherence of thought, thread of argument, and accuracy in description, attribution and facts are all beyond the bother of useful salvage.
