No conservative that I know voted for this fraud.Mr Sowell, I hope you are well.
Huh ??? Not I, m'friend Dr Sowell ....
I don’t know a single Republican who voted for this Marxist loser..and I sure as hell don’t know any Conservative who voted for him. Sarah is NOT one of the Washington Elite, she wants nothing to do with them. She doesn’t go to their meetings, she doesn’t go to their events, she knows why they want her to attend and its not because they give a damn about her, its because they are after publicity. Sarah knows that, she has been used enough by the likes of McCain, she won’t allow that to happen again. Sarah is doing what she does best, governing her state. If we last to 2012 with this Socialist in power we will need someone like her, someone like Jindal as well to help us all recover from 4 years of HELL
Two words: she's hot.
I don’t want someone who appeals to country clubbers but I also don’t want someone who merely repeats GOP talking points.
I want to see more Thomas Sowells and fewer Glen Becks or Hannitys.
Ping!
Excellent commentary. One of the biggest complaints the elitists had of Sarah Palin was that she didn’t go to a big name college. What a bunch of SNOBS!!
“But there are conservative Republicans who voted for Barack Obama, and other conservatives who may not have voted for him, but who are quick to see in various pragmatic moves of his since taking office an indication that he is not an extremist.”
This writer is living in LaLa Land.
Gov. Palin is Not an Over-Educated Elitist Intellectual. She is one of the people, a common American, and that’s the kind of person Americans what as their Leader. That is why she will be elected President and Commander in Chief of America and all Loyal Americans.
If she’s good enuff for Thomas Sowell then she good enuff for all of us....even some snooty freepers
Sowell is a genius. I love to read him and follow along with his mind. He is a forest, not the trees man, and I love to hear the Big Picture from his point of view.
But there is one more reason that Palin wasn't as popular as she could have been, and that reason was sexism. Not by men, but by women on both sides of the political landscape.
I'll let the readers figure out what I mean by that.
At least a third of black, hispanics, and asians consider themselves to be “conservatives” and voted for the Messiah. Also my “conservative” neighbors voted for the Messiah because they felt it was time to try something new.
Although Sowell and his good friend Dr. Walter Williams are conservative and apart of Academia, neither has ever fitted in with uppity left or right intelligentsia, nor have they ever cared to for that matter. Dr. Sowell identifies with Gov. Palin’s realness and refusal to back off her life’s principles.
He’s seen too many “conservative” POLITICIANS suddenly “grow” and “progress” as they seek higher office. And he sees her genuiness as something to defend.
I once told a friend that I thought Sowell should be in someone’s administration. He remarked he didn’t think that would ever happen...Sowell cherishes his independence of thought. But I’m wondering......if Sarah asked him to come aboard as a policy advisor....humn.......
Well, here are two criticisms that can stand up. Her inability to speak more than grammatically correct complete sentences in a row without a teleprompter and her lack of knowledge on foreign and domestic policy issues as demonstrated in her interview with Couric and the debate (when she didn't correct the lunatic Biden about Lebanon).
She also fared poorly in the one-on-one with Couric in a way that a Thatcher or a W or a Reagan never would.
Her lack of intellectual curiosity and inarticulateness (making her very un-Reaganesque on both counts) is what makes me not support her for 2012.
Even Ann Coulter made it clear that she will not be ready in 4 years.
