She may be exactly what the GOP needs at this point.
Someone who’s as far away from Washington as one can get.
I still remember when McCain decided to ‘concede’ Michigan and pull out. Sarah wanted to keep fighting for every single vote. That tells me all I need to know. Too often, it seems, elected Republicans are willing to concede.
The party of Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, Eisenhower, and (the pragmatic version of) Reagan is the path to a Republican resurgence. Palin is nowhere on that radar. She is all about celebrity status and controversy.
Gibberish. In several ways.
Disastrous choice??? If it wasn't for Sarah Palin, McCain probably wouldn't even have won Arizona.
It wasn’t her fault he lost, but the theory that she could attract enough votes to beat Barack 0bama was tested, and it failed. By nearly 10 million votes and 10 points, no less. If she was the only thing making John McCain competitive, she sure didn’t do a good job. They lost in a certified landslide.
Perhaps if the race had been close, then Palin supporters could have some credibility to their claims. But it wasn’t. It wasn’t even close to being close. Either Palin can pull in the votes, or she can’t. People had to opportunity to choose her over 0bama, and they passed by the millions.
Oh she can and WILL be President in 2012!!

Go Palin-The first WOMAN PREZ in the U.S.
p.s.
I have her autograph along with Piper’s and I plan to place them in my in VOTES for WOMEN banner circa 1913. Talk about a treasure trove!!
GO SARAH!!
The fact the left and the MSM hate her tells me all I want to know.
Look how they behaved last Presidential Election cycle; they did all they could to pump up McCain, and to a lessor extent, Rudy. Two losers they knew were going to be the easiest to defeat because out of all the candidates, they had strayed the farthest from the base.
Sarah excites the base. Furthermore, she is not afraid to fight back and fight back hard on a continual basis.
She is a fighter and exactly the candidate the GOP needs to coalesce around.
Excellent point. I agree that Romney has the best chance to win Michigan as he did in the primary.
Yeah. Like a Kenyan running The United States.
she was not at the top of the ticket!! she was not running against Nobama!! McCain was. Sorry but your theory is utterly rediculous and reasoning inherently flawed.
Gee, that sounds like McCain's strategy.
How about she focus on promoting freedom, opportunity and the removing of government shackles.
If that doesn't appeal to enough voters than the country doesn't deserve her.
“Oh she can and WILL be President in 2012!!”
Sorry, but you’ll have to wait until noon on January 20, 2013.
Was she running for president against Mr. Obama? Conventional wisdom says that the top of the ticket is what decides the winner, not the running mate. Given that, she still has much more executive experience than Obama does. Senator McCain’s suspending his campaign to fly back to Washington and then doing nothing substantial didn’t exactly inspire confidence, or have you already forgotten that fiasco? Being the standard-bearer is different than the VP nomination. BTW, who do you suggest for the nominee three years hence?
10 points is not a “landslide” and in the electoral college it was like the 8 point Clinton victory over Dole in 1996.
Nothing like the Reagan over Mondale 1984 or Johnson over Goldwater 1964 elections. Those were the real landslides.
The article is from a Canada.
Macleans does not understand Conservatives.
Thanks...but NO THANKS.
NO one who supports amnesty will get my vote. NO ONE.
In comparison to zero, biden and hillary, I would say Palin is well qualified
