Its physical size has little to do with anything.

Au contraire, it's physical size AND geographical location is very relevant.

I'm talking about population. I'm not disparaging Alaska or Alaskans by pointing out that it is a State outside of the mainstream of American life, just pointing out facts.

What facts? Anchorage is a cosmopolitan big-city of over 200,000 people. Besides, what does people have to do with anything? Joe Biden is VP of a state with with barely more people than Alaska but probably less land than the state capital of Juneau. Do you realize how vast Alaska is and how geographically strategic it is?

And bordering two countries doesn't give its Governor any real foreign policy experience.

Right, because we all know anyone who runs for President have a wealth of foreign policy experience already. BS - Fact is, no presidential candidate outside of a sitting VP has no foreign policy experience. Alaska borders two foreign countries and as I explained before, Palin has had to deal with the situation there. That's more foreign policy experience than any other potential candidate in 2012.

Which is exactly the type of things she needs to focus on in the next few years to fatten her foreign policy resume. I think Palin and her team know this is a weak spot for them and they're working on fixing it.

Foreign policy isn't Governor Palin's weak spot - I would say she leans populist on economic issues when she needs to embrace all-out free market principles, and clarify herself on border security and immigration. Other than that, she's a fine conservative. You're not influencing anyone here.

Guess the hiring freeze at Team Romney is over...

Pssst - It's just a furlough they have to take LOL

I’m not really concerned about Palin or any other GOP candidate at this point.

Well, you should be concerned. Especially since Sanford just crashed and burned. Palin is the most viable Republican right now.

Sarah is not getting enough respect! I hear people on Fox listing a bunch of people that are Republican contenders, and they purposely leave Sarah`s name off the list. Just last night on Special Report, Mort K listed 6 people ending with Timmy Palente of Minnesota, nobody corrected him and added Sarah`s name? No surprise Charles K did not mention her name, when ever he does he only trashes her.

They are so naive, Palente is dead in the water before he even starts, zero personality and very weak!

I know who you are, you gave yourself away! You have to be Charles Krauthammer. Charles we know you cant stand Sarah. Maybe we would take you more seriously if you had not written such glowing articles on Barry prior to the election.

That cartoon speaks volumes.

Maybe so; but it must have yelled too loud for the Moderator.

What was it about?

Very well said - I hope some of it hits home

“It’s a mystery to me how this flim-flam artist has so many people fooled.”

Yep, people like Sean Hannity and Ann Coulter are real idiots, fooled by Mitt Romney. They are just useful idiots for Mitt Romney.

This site is ridiculous in its anti Romney ramblings.
