What does she need a sloganeer for?

[Evil Slayer]

This was taken when she was with our soldiers over in Kuwait? Great pic!

[GOP_Raider]

If I were Sarah Palin's adviser I would strongly advise her to not run in 2012. She's very young

But if this term of Hussein's turns out to be anywhere near Carter-esque, I say Sarah ought to "strike while the iron's hot".

[shortstop]

I wonder if the Miners need a Shortstop?

[LiberConservative]

She could do a lot worse. I wanted Fred for president.

[NordP]

I politically LOVE Sarah Palin and more than anything else, I want her to win the Presidency, though. I would factor in EVERY true Conservative's opinion.

I would also (spoken as a MN, so this is from a loving perspective that I say this) loose as much of her accent as she can. It's sad, but I truly believe that when Americans hear our accent, they think, FARGO (even though it's not even IN MN-sheesh) and Rose from Golden Girls = sweet, but dumb. SHE MUST BE RESPECTED, and that's why I bring up the accent factor.

DILEMMA:

I want Sarah President as fast as possible, because I know how good she would be for America.

I want Sarah to wait, because timing is EVERYthing (example - BO).

What good is being the front runner of the party, if you don't win to be able to DO something about it = perhaps Ann is right.

[NordP]

P.S. SARAH PALIN CAN MAKE DECISIONS FOR HERSELF.

Listen to everyone (as she would do as President) and make a decision that follows YOUR gut, Sarah!

[jellybean]

This is two-fer! Not only a FRed ping, but Sarah as well. :)

[EternalVigilance]

the governor already has a pretty good handle on the concept of federalism.

Sadly, neither Palin nor Thompson understand true federalism at all.

[hosepipe]

Palin should hire or at least become friends with Ann Coulter.. Thomson could be the media point man..

[WillT]

I think your proposition makes sense. Fred’s run for POTUS was ineffective but he certainly has the experience and savvy to serve as a mentor to Palin. And Fred knows how to deal with the press. Let’s face it: She does need to get a better handle on national/international issues so she can speak with confidence and convince others that she has an understanding of the problems/solutions for the country. What are her solutions for healthcare? Immigration? The budget deficit? Middle East policy, etc? Fred would be a great help to her on these and other matters.

[TheConservativeParty]

Sarah, being a true conservative, and a Christian, will prayerfully decide what to do about a presidential run in 2012. I trust her. She trusts in The Lord to guide her through life and so do I.

Go Sarah, Go! Whatever she decides to do with the rest of her life.

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

Agreed, Josh! Governor Palin is going to need a couple of hired guns working for her over the next couple of years, and if Fred is available, he'd be a good one in terms of policy education, presentation, and support.

I don't think I'd want him running her campaign though.

[668 - Neighbor of the Beast]

Sarah Palin should not hire Fred Thompson. And anyone who wants to see her run for president should think about my tagline. As long as rats are allowed to vote in Republican races, we will have tired, sick old RINOs running for president.

[McGruff]

Fred's the only person I'd vote for over her right now. If Osama blows it like I think he will She should run in 4 years not 8.

[Navy Patriot]

Obviously, Sarah is the most feared person alive by the Socialist left Rats.

The problem is the RINOpublican party is unworthy of her efforts.

The RINO party must be fixed and have the will to win before committing a once in a lifetime asset like Sarah.

Sarah will be ready and she will win, when she knows this.

[AuntB]

“My own unsolicited advice for Sarah Palin is to hire Fred Thompson as her issues consultant. “

Oh, great....Fred Thompson, the John McCain conduit. Maybe she could keep Fred awake...

[Iron Munro]

I’m sure she already knows how to take naps.

[Jeffrey_D.]

Sara Palin has all the qualities that Ann spoke of. She is most definitely a “rising star”

That being said; I have no advice for her other than to just continue being Sara. It’s worked so far!

[Kevmo]

Sarah Palin should hire Fred Thompson
***She already learned from the best on how to lose an election.
