She grew up, they never will.

Caught “Game Change” on cable the other night.
Read Charlotte Allen’s Op-Ed article, “Hey, GOP, take the Palin cure,” in The Times on Sunday.
And what did I learn? Well, something doesn’t add up. Or, to paraphrase “I Love Lucy”: “Charlotte, you got some ’splainin’ to do.”
In her Op-Ed, Allen serves up equal parts lemonade and venomade in making her case that Sarah Palin should be the Republican presidential candidate in 2016. In Allen’s view, Palin has it all: She has blue-collar appeal, she’s “tough as nails,” and best of all, she’s a woman, which, in Allen’s world, gives her this advantage: “Men love Sarah Palin, and she loves men.”
Yep, just what the GOP needs: a Marilyn Monroe who hunts moose too.
Now, Allen also likes men, but there are some women she’s not too keen about. Take Hillary Rodham Clinton, whom she describes as looking “like Brunnhilde in a small-town Wagner production.” Or even fellow Republican Peggy Noonan, whom Allen lumps in with those “snooty East Coast Republican intellectual types … who look down their noses at a woman who doesn't shop at Neiman Marcus and didn't attend an Ivy League university.”
Anyway, you get the picture. But for good measure, Allen takes this plunge into mythology at the end:
Some Republicans will say Palin has too much baggage from 2008, and we need to look for a new Sarah Palin. But I don't see what's wrong with the one we've got. Ever since the 1990s, Republicans have been looking for the next Ronald Reagan. Reagan is now revered in bipartisan circles, but during his presidency he was, like Palin, ridiculed by liberals. They cited "Bedtime for Bonzo" and sneered at his no-name college degree...

Sarah will probably wait until her contract with FOX is settled/renewed. Sarah should be full go for 2016!
Thanks for the post, 2ndDivisionVet. Actually, just knowing the article is from the LA Times tells me all I need to know. LOL!
The sandwich industry is slowly coming back.
What she needs is an affiliation with a big-time sandwich entity.
May we always be happy and our enemies know it.
SARAH IS THE BEST
Hang in there, America. Fight for what is right. Don’t look to government or any politician to solve your problems. Government can’t make you happy, healthy, wealthy or wise. Obama is a master at reading the right “soaring” words fed into his teleprompter, but actions speak louder than words. So, hold tight to 2 Corinthians 4:8 because we’re in for a wild ride. We must survive. United. One nation under God.
“We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted but not forsaken, struck down, but not destroyed.”
~Sarah Palin
Thanks for the ping!
I stopped reading at “Caught ‘Game Change’ on cable the other night”
WOW the left is truly terrified of Sarah Palin..thats all they think about..they are THAT scared that she might run and win it literally makes them poop bricks
I’m hoping it will be her time, she makes good decisions and is a true conservative AMERICAN LEADER.
I just love Sarah who WOULD be a Reagan-esque President.
That said, it’s all meaningless re: Sarah if Comrade Obozo grants amnesty to 30 Million ILLEGAL CRIMINALS and the DNC/Marxist party would have a permanent voting majority.
May God save America....
Hell, Obama had baggage from September, but HE still got elected!
Whatever
I’m not going to bother to READ these idiot articles, but there sure are a lot of them, and that seems significant. It’s clear that the loony left fears Sarah more than anyone else.
As a conservative, I think she’s the best potential candidate I can remember seeing, ever. The only one with the guts, the principles, and the smarts needed to start straightening our country out, before we finish committing suicide.
Too bad the GOP doesn’t understand that, as the left clearly does. The pork guzzlers and corrupt lifetime power grubbers who run the party fear her even more than the left does, and with good reason.
I was very disappointed when she got crowded out this last time. Here’s hoping that the true conservatives and patriots in our country see the light, and gather behind her this time.
In before the Mitt lovers start trashing her?
Go Sarah!
