I always enjoyed Krouthammer, but never thought of him as a leader of Conservative thought. How can he be when he didn’t even vote for Reagan in either election? George Will is a Washington insider from a forgotten time. He is as current as those bow ties.
THEY ARE NOT RIGHT WING... THEY ARE NOT CONSERVATIVES... THEY ARE PROFESSIONAL LIBERAL LIARS POSING AS CONSERVATIVE PUNDITS... BUT THEY ARE GODLESS AGENTS OF satan.
LLS
Didn’t know that Krauthammer was a speechwriter for Mondale and worked for Carter! So, I would have to take anything he says with a grain of salt. How did he go from liberal to RINO-—er, CINO??
George Will is a has-been. Can safely ignore him.
At this stage shouldn't you be working on her getting her to show a sign of running? These “everybody bad is against a Palin candidacy” posts have been repeated daily for two years and just result in the same old repeated arguments from both sides. Is she supposed to be begged to run like with Thompson in 2007?
they are promoted by FOX as conservatives
Beltway Groupies. That is all. Ignore their babble.
Were you aware that The Atlantic is a lefty outfit? One of their guys (Andrew Sullivan) thinks that Gov. Palin faked Trig’s birth and that the baby actually belongs to her daughter!!
What’s amusing to me is that in 2008, McCain couldn’t raise a vote or even a yawn until Palin came on board on Aug. 29th. In 24 hours she’d raised a quarter million dollars for the campaign and in less than 3 weeks, she was polling 3% over Obama. Then of course Obama/Bernanke/Geithner pulled out the old economic crisis hoax, and dumbass McCain raced back to DC to support it. And of course the RINO’s crushed her, right when she was about to go in for the Obama kill by revealing that he’s aligned with domestic terrorists and commies!
Why do you think all the media operatives are so desperately trying to stop her run! She already had Obama beat once!
She’s an excellent strategist. It’s going to be interesting to see how this plays out.
I don’t think Krauthammer cares much for women and minorities.
Yawn, this is one of those articles where someone drums up an old articlse from some elses old articles and presents it as new info or something we don’t already know.
Must be what bored folks do when they run out of subject matter.
articlse=article, oops
Shhhh! Leave these hacks alone! Can’t you see they’re busy embalming another loser for the o-twelve run? They think they have developed a better-smelling fluid and a winning facial rouge.
On the other hand, screw them.
Here’s a similar article at the American Prospect:
The Fall of Sarah Palin
http://prospect.org/csnc/blogs/tapped_archive?month=03&year=2011&base_name=the_fall_of_sarah_palin_1
I'm eager for the Summer of Palin. That would be the Summer of 2011, when Tea Party events are in full swing nationwide (spontaneously protesting the bailout of blue states with non-existent money. That's when Sarah will be filling large football stadia to the horror of the left, and the grudging admiration of the Wills, Krauthammer and other pissants of this side of the spectrum.
It looks like the main theme they have is “all the bad people don't want her to run so we must beg her to run to get them upset”. Why else repost this old liberal nonsense over and over?
I dont know if you were following politics closely in 1992 but in the Fall when it became obvious Bush Quayle 1992 was going to lose they printed up a bunch of “re-elect Bush Quayle to annoy the media” stickers and pins. It wasnt the winner you might think it would be :).
It’s more than right wing vs. left wing, conservative vs. liberal. It’s country class vs. ruling class.
Palin’s election will interfere with the hold on power of the ruling class of both parties. They can’t stand for it. They will lose the people’s check book. She will change the game and they won’t know the rules.
Her campaign has to be as the leader of a movement to replace the establishment Republicans and liberals who got us where we are. If she is elected without control of both houses of Congress, we lose. Not Republican control, TEA Party control.
I see. It is the mark of an intellectual to believe in global warming without the slightest evidence that the globe is actually warming during the last decade (in fact it is cooling), and to accept as an article of faith that that Obama was born in the USA without the slightest actual evidence that he was.
The author must be an intellectual. Only an intellectual could say something so stupid. ~ George Orwell
Dr. Krauthammer is a registered Democrat. There is no such thing as a right winged Democrat.
Anyone who can win a Republican nomination can win a general election. To win the nomination Palin will need to demonstrate enough broad appeal to beat a beatable President. If she can only appeal to a fringe group of voters she won't win the nomination and nobody has to worry about her.
I bet Will, Krauthammer et al. understand this just fine. They aren't really concerned that Palin will cede a second term to Obama. They're concerned that President Palin will represent a serious change in DC away from a status quo they are all comfortable with. It would be nice if they were all honest enough to admit this instead of peddling the ridiculous Palin-can’t-win meme.
