she is a rare opponent of Obamacare that is in a leadership position

We need to be clear on this point: although Ms. Palin apparently aspires to a leadership position, she is not actually in a leadership position.

Sorry, but that is an opinion masquerading as a stated declaritive fact, which it is not.

That's the your main problem.

Everyone is fine with you having a differing opinion, however, your opinion of Sarah seems to be lacking in factual evidence. Oh, and by the way, that's my opinion.

"We need to be clear on this point: although Ms. Palin apparently aspires to a leadership position, she is not actually in a leadership position."

Wrong!

By the MSM's visible admission, she is the understood leader of American Conservatism at this time. Every false poll that they publish pits someone or a group of someones against Sarah Palin. Not one single poll has been published since the November election that has not included Sarah Palin.

If that isn't leadership, then there is no such thing as leadership. - She is the "Heir Apparent."

Time for a little lesson on leadership here.
Informal Leader:
Leader whose power and authority over a group are derived from his/her acceptance by the group rather than from his/her office, position, status, or rank in the formal chain of command in the formal organization. An informal leader has earned a group leadership role by the group's acceptance

By her ability to influence the Republican base and send the 0bamabots crazy, Sarah Palin wields more power, than any other Republican Party”leader” right now, certainly a heck of a lot more power than RNC Chair Michael Steele, who most of the Republican base just wouldn't give the time of the day to.

People are looking to her as a leader and she is responding to the need by addressing the current issues. The libs are listening, not that they like what they hear.

Yea, I would say leadership position.

I likewise am in a leadership position but not on a national level.

Are you implying that someone has to be a Congressman, mayor, governor, president to be in a leadership position?

Anyways, now that I indulged you in your nitpicking session I think it would be a better exercise in intellectual honesty to stick with the gist of what is being said than policing comments to see how clever you can try and be.
