Jesse Ventura: Sarah Palin will win
The State Column ^ | April 3, 2011 | Staff

Posted on 04/03/2011 4:26:33 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Former Minnesota governor Jesse Ventura, in an upcoming appearance on “Piers Morgan Tonight,” says former Alaska governor Sarah Palin will win the 2012 Republican presidential nomination.

“She’s the type of person that certainly will be controlled by the status quo and the power structure. So she’d make a perfect candidate for them, she’ll do what she’s told,” Mr. Ventura says.

The former Minnesota governor noted Ms. Palin’s reality show and her current contributions on Fox News, saying the Republican Party is “grooming” her.

The former Alaska governor has yet to announce a presidential campaign. Ms. Palin has noted in the past her interest in seeking the nomination.

In making the prediction, Mr. Ventura seemed to overlook two potential candidates from his home state: Rep. Michele Bachmann and former governor Tim Pawlenty. Both Ms. Bachmann and Mr. Pawlenty have noted their intentions to seek the presidency

We can do better than Ms. Palin folks...no women nominees...remember the definition of a misogynist...it is a man that hates women almost as much as women hate women.

Wrong. Misogyny is hatred or contempt of women or girls. Misandry is hatred or contempt of men or boys.

Your post is a prime example of misogyny. If Sarah decides to run and in fact win, it will be not because she does what the GOP tells her to do, but rather she will win because the strength of her own convictions will carry her to victory.

I couldn’t believe she would not support J.D. Hayworth...

J.D. understood Sarah Palin's endorsement of McCain, and didn't fault her for it.

I can’t disagree with any part of your post. But you’d better don a flame retardant suit for your suffrage comment.

Yup. It goes without saying that the current crop of male candidates are nad-less.

Well, I did say "men."

Are there two Sarah Palins?

Most emphatically yes.

Tina Fey and the real one.

Cheers!

You reveal yourself as a troll with ad hominem and defeatism that "she can't win."

How many other ex-VP candidates are there who after losing election, and *stepping down* as an elected candidate, have

a) come up with two books on the New York Slimes bestsellers list (and it must have killed the NYS to admit it)

b) come up with a reality show which led the ratings in its timeslot, and which amounted to a paid infomercial for the ex-candidate and the ex-candidate's state: but instead of having to pay for the publicity, got paid *for* it?

c) Has had their family intimately, savagely attacked, including national-level late night talk show hosts joking about the statutory rape of their daughter by a professional athlete?

...not to mention the pre-planned vitriol aimed at her in the Gabrielle Giffords shooting?

She's more successful and popular than the others; and a greater target for the left. Nobody attacked Dan Quayle like this after he *left office*.

Cheers!

There should be a club for people who voted for both Jesse and Al Franken.

Anti-moonbat Sarcasm TorpedoTM ARMED. FIRE!!

Well, there's a club for Jesse and Al Franken themselves. The Mickey Mouse Club.

There is. It's called the DFL (Dumb F'ing Liberal, not Democrat-Farm-Labor).

It depends on how long a line there is for people wanting to wield said club. /sarc>

Cheers!

The few who actually "doubt" Palin's intelligence are only those too sadly stupid to recognize proven brilliance when they see it. Even those who openly ridicule her do so only because they recognize what an ineluctable force of nature she is in American Politics.

Surely you don't suggest we elect (or only seriously consider so doing) our leaders based in any way upon ignorant peoples' misimpressions, poor judgement, and easily duped, gullible deficiencies? That would be even more insipid and puerile than are those who ridicule Palin's intelligence out of either a Machiavellian desire to deceive, or abject fear and partisan prejudice.

We're way too smart to sit still for that steamy pantload of evil silliness, now, aren't we?

There's a good Minn.

Pardon me, but isn’t that what’s happening now with Ø? Doesn’t he take his marching orders from the SEIU and George Soros?
