One good thing about President Obama’s re-election: It seems to have prompted some sober thinking by Republican Party leaders and allies. Oh sure, there’s been some loose talk of secession, but mostly what you’ve found is top GOP leaders trying to figure out how to broaden the GOP’s appeal and shed its reputation for anti-intellectualism while staying true to their conservative values. This is a good thing.
One sure way for Republicans to blow it: If Sarah Palin runs for president.
You might’ve thought Palin’s political career pretty much ended when she decided not to run for president against a week GOP primary field in 2012. Her supporters were certainly eager to see her run, and the other candidates were clearly terrified that she’d jump in. But she stayed out, made frequent appearances on Fox News, and that seemed that.
Until Sunday, that is, when conservative writer Charlotte Allen took to the pages of the Los Angeles Times and urged Palin to run in 2016.
Why? Well, because unlike boring old Mitt Romney, apparently, Sarah Palin won’t try to appeal to voters on the basis of issues. She’s a good old-fashioned demagogue. She’ll appeal to their hearts, and their penises...

Needs a hurl alert.

It said Philadelphia Magazine. That’s an automatic hurl alert.
They should pay her for the use of her name. Stick her name in the headline and people will read your silly article who never would read it otherwise.
I didn’t get very far though. I know journalists aren’t known for brains but sometimes I still get surprised. Do these companies expect to stay in business with nimrods like this writing for them?
The line we did NOT hear from this guy:
“One sure way for Republicans to blow it: If Mitt Romney runs for president.”
I’ll be happy to vote with my penis. The Dems campaigned “officially” on the vagina vote so I do not see a problem.
“...and that seemed that.”
Have you punched a liberal today?
By the time 2016 rolls around, the only opposition to the Dims that will be allowed to remain standing will be those whom they know they can beat, as it was this year.

Post of the day... maybe of the week.

Okay. Time to start Louisianans for Palin 2016.
Shut Up Philadelphia... just shut up
I think we should harp on that. Show the sheer absurdity of the Code Pink/Lib/Dem/Media ‘vagina’ campaign.
Nothing a militant feminist hates worse than a penis.
I think that a Palin presidency is just the penance that the Liberal punks should suffer.

The only sure fire way to lose in 2016 is to accept anyone that the GOPe wants. We need to start now getting rid of the open primaries.
“She’ll appeal to their hearts, and their penises...” Apparently, Matt doesn’t have one.
