Those all sound like strengths to me, but what do I know compared to an establishment politico like Mr. Frum?

Frum sleeps with a Mitt Romney blow-up doll.

The Republican Country Clubbers talked the same way about Ronaldus Magnus back in 1978 and 1979. By 1980, they had decided that discretion was the better part of valor.

Frum is a country club elite who sucks up to fellow elites, whether RINO or RAT.

On the ground is a poodle performing a stunt. Above the clowns head, dangling from a thin wire, is a piano. The piano is teetering, tottering, looking as if at any moment it might slip, crash to earth, and crush the dog.
I'm confused.
The dog is the one under the piano.
So who is the clown?
Oh... I know! That's you, Frum! That's you!

The author, David Frum, is 1 for 5 here. His #4 is correct and is one reason Palin reminds me of Reagan:
“4) She talks unlike a politician.
Most politicians speak in ways intended to guard against mistake. This imperative leads many to a style of speech that sounds artificial, remote, even stilted to many listeners. Palin doesnt do that. She just lets it rip.”
Overall, Frum is 1 for 5 = batting 200 = 20% correct. Frum is a failure overall.

The ethics complaint campaign—orchestrated from the White House—generated personal legal costs at a pace that indebted Gov. Palin and forced her out of office. The Palin family is now “making hay while the sun shines.” More power to them.

You do know that the only way for these loser RINOs to get anyone to publish or read their petty crap is to make sure they are writing about Sarah. Sarah is the subject and always in the title. It’ a bit of a giveaway isn't it.
Frum and his RINO (incl W) friends brought America Democrat control of the House, Senate, and Presidency and allowed the Bammer to slant 2 seats on SCOTUS.
They absolutely bear that responsibility. It is up to Sarah Palin and her Common Sense Constitutionalists to fix it because Frum and gang are to stupid too see the danger.

What is up with Frum? Who is he against here Palin or Obama? RINO’s fight more against their own than the Dem’s.
Does Palin not have one commentator that will speak for her? I read somewhere even Bill Kristol is advising his readers to move on from the “Palin” effect?????

David Frum is ‘Exhibit A’ that PDS is incurable. David and his ilk would just love for Sarah to go away but their Palin hatred is so strong that she consumes much of their waking thoughts and forces them to keep her front and center and in the limelight. As a Palin supporter, I thank you.

“Imagine youre at the circus. On the ground is a poodle performing a stunt. Above the clowns head, dangling from a thin wire, is a piano. The piano is teetering, tottering, looking as if at any moment it might slip, crash to earth, and crush the dog.”
LOL, he changed metaphors in midstream and didn’t catch it. It’ll change later.
Is Palin a “clown” or a “poodle” David?
To: Brad from Tennessee
How do I say this...in some respects, it’s our fault. The instant Palin began to be harassed by bogus legal challenges, we, the conservative right, should have set up a legal defense fund for her.
Millions of dollars would have poured in. But at the time, I really wasn’t paying enough attention to think of that.

First time in history the blow-up doll had sex with the human instead of the other way round.

I like Sarah, although I’m not the cheerleader for Palin that some here are.
That said I take serious issue with the “ferocious hater” comment.

The threat, to the Rinocratic Oligarchy, of Constitutional Government, is the equivalent of a crucifix to a demon. IMHO, the 2012 race will essentially be America against DC.

Beyond being patently false, that’s an unbelievably gay statement.
