I don’t think she has to run against Republicans.

She’s already considered enough her own woman with a focus on reform and small government as it is, no need for her to tear down her even reluctant allies in Congress. Also, people voted for Obama as a protest against wayward Republicanism anyway, and are ready to cry ‘uncle’ as it is.

In none of his national campaigns did Reagan aim his fire at the errors of Nixon and the Rockefeller Republicans of his time. He had to beat them in the primaries, for sure—but he did so with a positive, confident message of ideas and ideals.

Exactly!

These people who want to keep firing at the Republican Party need to learn how to aim!

Lets take out some of our RINO problems in the primary, to be sure, -— but, like Reagan, we need to present a POSITIVE public image.

This constant carping about how the Republicans have failed is much like Obama apologizing to the world about America.

STFU and get to work, folks!

Nixon was not running, but Reagan did run against the policies of Carter - the man in office screwing up the country. Same thing happening here. Run against the crap Obama did, BUT, present ones own platform of positives.

Palin has already proven she will not break Reagan’s 11th Commandment of speaking ill will of other Republicans.

However, those very same Republicans are quite fearful that Palin is about impress her ideals on a wayward GOP with powerful grassroots support which they will not be able to deny.

The Democrats are fearful of a true Conservative living up to those ideals in open, honest fashion.

That is something Democrats simply can not compete with.

Saddle up boys & girls, Sarah is the new Sheriff in town & she’s callin’ up the posse.

Palin ‘12 or Whenever
