The Democrats -- and the Republicans too -- may find the next stage of Sarah Palin's public career uncomfortable.
True to form, Sarah Palin, her Governorship behind her, clearly and forthrightly declared her intent: to take up arms against the forces dedicated to tearing down our Constitution, destroying our principles of government, disparaging our history of defense of democracy and free enterprise, weakening our military, and saddling generations to come with oppressive debt and entitlement programs. She did so in the same inspirational, forceful manner that won her immediate and enthusiastic acclaim when she joined John McCain on the Republican ticket in ‘08.
Her words, her dynamic style, her good humor and high spirits, as well as her clear dedication to the traditional values of Middle America, have created a great wave of euphoria among conservatives across the country, in the Tea Party movement as well as those who embraced her last fall.
Those in the Obama camp who have savaged her, and the commentators who have criticized her for being a quitter, a political weakling, doomed forever as a loser, are about to get their first lesson in Palin 101: The word "quit" is not in her vocabulary. She is not a reactive defender. She is a fierce and fearless attack machine. She earned her nickname Sarah Barracuda, on the basketball court. She polished those skills in the rough and tumble of the frontier politics of Alaska.
She is unswervingly honest. She hates liars and cheats.

Remember, she made it clear in her resignation that she was going to remain "outside" the political fences. For she is going to turn her guns on the GOP -- big time. She wants nothing to do with the Republican National Committee.....

Great. This author gets it.
He, however, does not state what the real ideological battle is, just that it ISN’T GOP v ‘Rat.
It’s Elitists v Individualists. And there are elitists in the GOP that need swept aside.
It’s an interesting pieces, as we have come to expect from the American Thinker, but the author doubts that Palin will run for president in ‘12.
I wouldn’t be too sure about that.
The best possible scenario would be for her to campaign for conservatives, kick out the elitists in 2010. Then, draw out a LIKE MINDED Presidential candidate, campaign for him/her (likely “him”), and be the veep for 8 years, then run for pres for another 8.
16 years of Palin kickin’ ass and takin’ names in DC.
“I am going to ask you to be as quiet as possible for I am not able to give to challenge of the bull moose quite as loudly.” TR
...When she was appointed by the Governor to chair the Oil & Gas Conservation Commission and found out the Republicans were dealing under the counter with the private companies, she resigned and blew the whistle. When her party wouldn't support her for Governor she ran on her own -- against their open opposition -- and won. And promptly attacked waste and corruption within the Republican state government.
Think she would give up Todd for me? ;^)
