Palin 2012. Hypothetical narrative.
If this is what she runs on and does it well then watch the hell out:
Im Sarah Palin, and Im running to be Citizen-In-Chief.
I entered politics to change something. I ran to serve my state, the great state of Alaska, and then for the vice-presidency because I care about this country.
I saw first-hand the viciousness and pettiness that have made Americans fed up with politicians, politics as usual, and the destructive personal attacks that also go on far too often. Those sorts of things that public service should never be about.
I thought I could serve my country best by being removed from that environment.
I dont need a title to bring to Washington the change America really needs: a dose of humility in a federal government that has completely lost touch with its citizens.
So I come to you today as an Alaskan, as a parent of a soldier, and as a mother of five. I am running not as a member of the elite, of the establishment but of the everyday. I ask to serve you as president because I have shared your experiences and I understand your disgust with the system. What we need today is not a ruler, but a servant. A servant of the people. A servant of America.
I will govern as first among equals, not as your ruler. Not as the Queen of Washington, giving orders that descend from on high. I know firsthand how that culture of selfishness and personal destruction in Washington harms lives. I ask for your support because I share your disgust with the system. And if you will fight with me, if you will put that trust in me to do that then you can trust me, also, to change it.
I can almost guarantee you that the other side doesnt see it that way. They truly (and wrongly) believe that they arent destroying the country but are improving it (and acquiring as much power as they can in the process). So, yes, they are wrecking the country, but not intentionally.

I see it differently. If these people were stupid enough to believe that what they are doing is actually “improving” the country how would they have sense enough to get dressed in the morning? Only someone who believes that five hundred pounds of cow manure in the trunk of a car will improve gasoline mileage could believe that what they are doing makes any positive sense. There are plenty of voters who are that stupid but I don’t think many people that stupid manage to get elected, I see them as plain EVIL!
I love this country “just the way it is”...

I DON’T! I love it just the way it USED to be.
I stand corrected!..:o)

Why would you expect an ‘audience’ at a Press Conference?
Oh, I think she could follow in Reagan's footsteps, and work within the GOP. Why spend the money and effort only to re-invent the wheel?
Palin will be in their FACES talking about energy and they’ll have that as their comeback???!!! I hope so!
