Hmmmmmmmm
As opposed to...?
I might worry more if I looked at the rest of the Republican/conservative field and saw even one of the candidates that had noticeably more gravitas, more fire and more ability to endure a tough and even nasty election campaign than she does. I’m having trouble thinking of one that even has as much. We’re mostly looking at the same guys the Republican electorate looked at in ‘08 and said, “Eh, we’ll go with McCain.” I’ve said before, these guys need to worry less about whether she has the stuff and more about whether they do. I’m still waiting to see if they’ve figured it out yet. As for Karl Rove, there’s a reason he’s called the Magnificent Bastard and not the Infallible Bastard.
“There are high standards that the American people have for it [the presidency] and they require a certain level of gravitas, and they want to look at the candidate and say ‘that candidate is doing things that gives me confidence that they are up to the most demanding job in the world’.”
He might be right, but if so then how did we get the Bummer?
Sarah is far less green and has just the right personality to undertake the dismanling of the administrative state and getting government under control. And considering the act she would be following, it won’t be difficult to look far superior of a choice no matter what she does.
I’d take almost anyone over that lying marxist piece of trash.
If you gave me a choice between Sarah Palin and George Bush, I would pick Palin as the one with more intelligence, balls and gravitas.
I think it is hilarious that Karl Rove, who brought us George Bush, now thinks he knows who is and who isn’t good presidential material.
The only reason why Sarah Palin has large negatives is because the main stream media has done everything in its power to ridicule and destroy her.
If Sarah Palin was a liberal, every feminist in America would be screaming bloody murder about misogyny and patriarchy.
Oh well, I feared Bush lacked the gravitas to be President, and I still think my fears were somewhat justified. Funny that I don’t have that fear about Palin. Rove, soaking in a Washington bathhouse, getting buzzed on Potomac fumes, is frightened by strong women, especially conservative women who threaten to show the establishment men up as the pansies they are.
IMHO she is running. Why would she endorse Dr. Benishek after the DNC has pulled out because they know it is lost? Because she needs MI District 1 to take Michigan Electorially. She is already playing an Electorial game and it gauls Rove because he still must feel the need for being close to power and he won't be part of a Palin Administration. He is part of the current power culture, and the Tea Parties and the likes of an Insurgent Palin scare the BeJeasus out of the likes of Rove and the rest of the Gucci Gultch crowd. They do not know how to handle us! LOL !!!
Rove doesn’t seem to care for conservative women...
Oh, it is going to be so sweet when this dear lady is our President.
“He added that the promotional clip for Sarah Palin’s Alaska could be especially detrimental to any political campaign. It features the mother of five in the great outdoors saying: “I would rather be doing this than in some stuffy old political office.”
She has the option of doing what she’d rather do, but it says a lot that she’s willing to do otherwise.
Turdblossom irritates me again and again. Maybe Mitt’s already retained him. There should be disclosures of that kind of thing.
Right.
Like McCain and Obama had “gravitas.”
Why do I get this feeling Rove’s going to make a run for President?
Sounds like Karl forgot, not too long ago the “no gravitas” was a huge dem talking point. I don’t believe it worked against Bush and don’t expect it to work against Sarah, either.
You know me, not the biggest Palin fan. But good flippin grief Rove, shut your effin trap.
did Rove not know what day it is? It is not Nov 3 yet. rove needs to shut the hell up and hold his fire until Wed of next week. He is costing us Power and seats make no mistake about it. Rove and the Rinos would rather have the Dems lead us then conservatives. Rove’s 15 min are over He is becoming the parker of the right.
Screw Rove.
Hmmmmmmmm
Rove is clearly working now for Romney or one of the other RINO hacks...
I like Karl, why is he doing this....there must a reason.....or he’s an asshole.
what in the world is he talking about.
Nuculer.
