Indeed.

A lot of crazies on this site about Palin; nevertheless, so far she’s the best I’ve seen.

Just to see the obnoxious self-righteous liberal fringe (including the MSM) go bonkers I would love to see Palin win the Presidency. I would love to see a parade of non-Washington, non-Ivy League, non-urban candidates win office.

Yup.

Sarah Palin is a master of imagery. Pit bulls with lipstick, hopey-changey, mama grizzlies - all phrases conjuring up vivid images in peoples minds and they know exactly what she’s talking about - even those who don’t agree with her. Fact is, aside from being better looking, the leftie moonbats hate her because they realize how effective she is. Now she’s got the whole English-speaking world making fun of Obama’s (lack of) “cojones”!

Let’s consider Palin’s approach in light of three of Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals:

1. Power is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have.

5. Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.

6. A good tactic is one that your people enjoy.

I’d say she’s writing a new one: “Turn your enemy’s weapon against him”.

SP is really a different kind of woman candidate..she is a Tom-boy for one thing...ever see that vid of her visiting the troops? Her gait is not feminine, she shakes hands like a man, she is confident with men, she has moxie, and is very pretty also.

Not sure how women will react to her as a Presidential candidate, it appears that she is trying to make strides with them.

Palin has something more than intellect.

She has the ability to connect with and energize her party.

SARAH PALIN PING LIST "ping"

Newt Gingrich wouldn’t excite me whatsoever. I would hope Sarah (if she ran) could garner a better running mate than him.

I do understand though, that he might bring in the RINO’s and old line GOP’ers. Blech.

This is not based on polls — especially one showing her in a 46 percent to 46 percent tie with President Barack Obama in a 2012 face-off

What is interesting is that a sitting President who has the complete backing of the MSM is now even with a former VP candidate who has been summarily trashed by same. Hmmmmm ....

Sarah speaks to, and as, US -- we the People, while the rest of the political class only speak to themselves in their own little echo chamber ... a game of upsmanship they play amongst each other.

Not saying that Sarah is perfect, far from it .. she is human like us all, complete with human frailties and foibles. And that is what makes her real, makes her just like all of us ... lends to her appeal to us all.

Some day she might turn out to be yet another phony politician of arrogant ambition like all the rest .. but until and unless that day comes, so far Sarah Palin is *real*

She’s my gal and I’m sticking with her.

[anniegetyourgun]

I have no reason to believe she’s going to run, but if she doesn’t....we’re in for another milquetoast candidate. Let’s be honest, that’s all the GOP has in the wings right now.
