They just can't get a handle on her and it's driving them up a wall.

She’s our best foot soldier. But no, she can’t become president.

After Obama it will be years before another minority is elected, including a woman. Yes, I would vote for her but the next president will be white, anglo saxon, protestant, male.

She shouldn’t have resigned her office. That WILL cause huge trouble in any Presidential run she makes.

Indeed, a Washington Post-ABC poll published on Friday found that a mere 8 percent of voters said they would definitely vote for Palin in a presidential race, versus 60 percent of respondents who said they definitely would not.

For a poll that was useless because it was of anyone over 18, instead of registered voters, or likely voters, or even eligible to be voters, this poll sure has legs.

It must give a short lived talking point, that the left likes.

That seems a tall order, according to some experts and polls.

I've often wondered how are the experts and polls President's Gore, Kerry and Hillary Rodham are working out?

On the GOP side, how's President Guiliani doing?

No.

Bloody hell. How can one article get so many things wrong, or make so many ludicrous assumptions?

I swear, these libs are going to get caught flat-footed by the Palin juggernaut, if they keep this up. They're literally going to convince the 21% of the country who are liberal that she's got no chance whatsoever to win the nomination.

Oh, how their heads are going to explode on the day that she actually announces her candidacy.

The first reaction on the left will be one of laughter and mocking.
Within 48 hours, there will be so many American voters lined up to support Sarah, that the left will then shift into petty nastiness.
Within a week, they'll be "concerned" about "serious issues with Palin and her candidacy".
Within a month, they'll be showing signs of real worry.
Three months into the campaign, the libs will be visibly terrified, and some will be ready for the straight jacket.
Six months in, there will be open weeping and moaning across the leftosphere.
Eight months in, and libs will be holding huge tent revivals where they scream, cry, and pray to Mother Gaia (and Lord Obama) to save them.

Dang, it's going to be a thing of beauty!

"Mahaffee, however, questions the show's effectiveness. While it shores up her base, it does little to increase her outreach beyond her current supporters."

They WISH.

According to this guy, you have to "think outside the base".

OK, I've thought outside the base. I still see her as a winning threat to Obama. He stumbles, can't speak, and we're going nowhere.

This mom/mayor/governor has so much more to offer by experience alone, but that's not all. She could fix things while making you proud at the same time.

There's always a way out of a mess. You just need someone who sees the way out. But more importantly, someone willing to ride on the shoulders of those with the original vision.

They’re really pouring it on tonight, aren’t they?

Time will tell if she’s “electable” or not.

Time has already told us that the other “electables” couldn’t be bothered to come out and fight the Obamists; they’ve been waiting for an invitation.

Sorry; if during the fight of the century you were AWOL, you aren’t the “electable” I’m looking for. The list of politicians who actually stood up and took on the Obamists is pretty short. If you aren’t on the list, don’t bother to come knocking come primary season.

I appreciate the honest opinions people have of Sarah even when they disagree with mine. Yet, all too often, I see: "the media doesn't like her and will crush her", or sentiments to that effect.

If that's the case, why have elections at all? ABC or NBC should just select our next president, by that logic. Thank you very much, but I'll pass.

I'm going to go to one of her rallies when she comes near my town. You know who I am? I'm the guy who's too often too busy to make a rally, but guess what? I'll make Sarah's.

Those on the Left who fear/smear Sarah are the smart ones. They've seen freedom before and can't stand it. They'll throw everything they can at her. "Sarah Palin's Alaska" isn't just a TV show, it's a shield against a media onslaught destined to come. Less a shield than a force field, actually. Smart gal.

If Barack Hussein Obama can become the POTUS, an American like Sarah Palin can become the POTUS too.

she also demonstrated a reluctance to accept schooling from professionals

These fools do not understand that Palin's independence is her greatest strength. Americans are tired of presidents who are little more than puppets on strings. We a president who can be his own man. Or if not, at least a president who can be her own woman.

I don’t think so. The bigger question is, does any Republican have a shot at US Presidency in 2012? IMO, the answer isn’t as clear as some of us would like to think.

People keep finding more and more tortured arguments to dismiss her politically.

But, she is already controlling the conversation, and may well control the agenda come 2012.

People ignore the Barracuda at their peril.
