Well remember y’all asked for comments.

Here’s how I see things. We’ll know in the next week or two whether our beloved uniparty is going to take action to start WWIII. Assuming our benevolent overlords haven’t gotten us burnt to a crisp by 2014 let alone 2016, I think that Sarah becoming President would be an outside bet at best. Ted Cruz has a better chance in my view but not a particularly good one. Neither will be the gop nominee; that will go to someone like jabba the christie.

Where I see any chance at all for either candidate is if they cast aside the farce of the gop/’rat uniparty and get a second party going. People within conservative circles talk about the gop label being “damaged.” They’re incorrect: it’s radioactive. And if the gop decides to do what I think they’ll do and buy off on an enormously unpopular war, then you can kiss off the gop faction for the foreseeable future. But admittedly that would leave a huge opportunity for a second party to emerge. And there would be the opportunity for Sarah or Cruz to pursue. I question whether either would seize that opportunity, and if they did they would have counter other second party wannabes like the Libertarians. Or perhaps be their nominee.

Lots of “ifs” there FRiends. Not saying I don’t want it: Lord knows I’d be tickled 15 shades of pink. And I’m not saying it couldn’t happen...Teddy Roosevelt gave it a good effort in 1912...just not seeing it as likely.

Check out my response in the comments in that page to a troll about Sarah being a quitter.
You’ll see it :)

Ahhhh! Now I understand.

But, I don’t understand why he would say something like that.

I am not a fan of homosexual marriage — as this whole homosexual issue plays out, perhaps some folks will change their minds?

“I’ll be looking to see where people like Palin, Rand and Cruz wind up. Because that’s my party.”

Yep. :)

"We are doomed—Obama wants and needs to be a war time president —He needs the power to cover up his many crimes and mis-steps."

It is called "Wag the Dog" based on a movie with the same name, released during the Clinton Administration. When the Lewinsky scandal broke, Clinton played Wag the Dog by the bombing of the Al-Shifa pharmaceutical factory in Sudan by the Clinton Administration. It was done to distract attention from Clinton's scandalous sexual proclivities which were front page news for weeks.

There's Jonah Goldberg's column published today (9/4) that I think hits the nail on the head about the GOP (and just as true for conservatives) needing "storytellers" who can present the positions in a way that is accessible to the large portion of the public that really doesn't pay attention to politics.

I can't think of a better storyteller out there right now than Sarah Palin.

Great article/commentary. I agreed with every word.
Thank you, for all the consistent hard work, keeping Sarah in a daily discussion thread.

We have so many citizens that do not follow the real news, and do believe the media spin on daily events. It is the easy way and they are disposed to agree and believe anything that matches their bias.

God bless and protect Sarah Palin, in Jesus name, amen.

Amen.

I was at Indianola, hoping to hear her announce that day....

When she said “My plan is”..the crowd went wild.

Politics is a rough and ugly business, but God raises true leaders.

I’m with Sarah all the way- she hasn’t wavered on principle when the politicos jockeyed, fingers in the wind.
