I can't wait either! This is gonna be sweet!
Sarah set up Alaska for success by getting out of the way and putting her successor in place, then showed us (with salmon in hand) that she's willing to get dirty to get the job done. Oh, yeah!
Even without a run for the White House in 2012 (in fact, maybe better without) imagine the power Sarah can wield independently! She can be the Grand Inquisitor of the conservative movement, weeding out RINOs and allowing (through endorsements) only the true-blue conservative to advance. Or set the tone for all manner of moral, ethical and constitutional debates. With her many (MANY!) loyalists and even a smidgeon of organizing, she could swing elections nationwide and even provide a counterbalance to ACORN!
Give her a few weeks to do some homework then grab the popcorn!
“Sarah set up Alaska for success by getting out of the way and putting her successor in place, then showed us (with salmon in hand) that she’s willing to get dirty to get the job done. Oh, yeah!”
hehe yeah, and she’s tough (its very hard work) and can take criticism (from her husband about how she helps) and has been doing it 20 years (persistance).
Those twits in the MSM don’t even realise they had been set up by Palin for that. Man, she will be VERY HARD to beat.
One of Sarah's many strengths is that she is able to take a conservative message directly to the people. In doing so, she makes the MSM (Main stream media) and DBs (Drive-Bys) not relevant, takes them out of the game, and they know it.
I grew up believing every word spoken by Walter Cronkite. Many of the younger folks have had their version of local, regional and national "truth-tellers"
However, they have devolved into info-bots, repeating the daily press releases of the democratic party. You have to give it to the liberals, they have championed their ability to monopolize the news with their message.
Sarah Palin can take them out of the picture.
I got a big hoot out of seeing Andrea Mitchell, leaving the comfort of the Big City, and having to travel to Dillingham. There a little, yet competent lady was working side-by-side with her husband, working the family business, as they have done together all of their marriage.
Real Americans treasure the ability of a married couple being able to work together doing something that is both difficult and uncomfortable at best.
Sarah proves that she is not beneath real work and that she and Todd have a real strong relationship. (Probably as much to his credit as to hers)
And there was Sarah, sticking to her guns, telling Andrea "you're not listening to me!"
A nice way of saying - "I know you traveled several thousand miles to get her, that you are uncomfortable with these conditions, but even still, I am not giving you a platform to use this to put words into my mouth".
It was also a hoot to see Andrea in a set of waders, yet for her, being as the conditions there are far from urban (think dirt, mud, gravel and just the general filth of any fishing area), that for Andrea the waders were the closest thing she could get to a body condom.
The DBs are working very hard to put the little lady into a box. But it is not going to work.
Andrea went to Sarah's turf to try a little Katie Couric on her and she came away helping Sarah look even better.
It is going to be fun to watch. The little point guard "Sarahcuda" bringing the ball down the court against larger opponents, but they continue to under-estimate her on many levels. It will be fun to watch how she sets up the plays. When she starts passing the ball to other conservatives and giving them opportunities to score, her value for the conservative team will become even more evident.
The other question for me is whether Sarah's efforts will revitalize Republicans, or if a true revolt within politics will occur and a viable conservative political movement will spring forth.
Can anyone say Green Conservative Shoots??
