WOW, wouldn't that be amazing for Sarah to pass up the "paper of record" LOL

The New York Times reported a smaller decline than the industry average, as weekday circulation fell 3.6 percent to 1,039,031, compared with the previous year. The Times, which last week reported a quarterly loss of $74 million, said that circulation revenue was up slightly, reflecting increased prices.

You’re right. Lower right, I missed that. And in terms of total numbers, Obama gained about 39,700 and Sarah over 57,000 last week.

It's odd you would say this: "Palin/DeMint 2012!"

Some friends and I have been discussing this very possibility. Or ... "DeMint/Palin".

Oh pretty please folks... you can't be serious.

Obama is on Facebook since 2006 and garnered most of his following during the campaign. And he is President, for goodness sake. Lastly don't overlook that on Facebook there aren't only Americans, but followers from across the world. Obama has had much more and much more positive international exposure than any Republican ever had or will have. Add to this concerted efforts by $oro$ liberal astroturf like MoveOn.org and DailyKos and probably ACORN workers to swell up his ranks of Facebook following.

Palin is on Facebook since 2009, which is AFTER the election and her following has increased immensely AFTER her resignation. For someone not holding office she is doing excellently for this very short time.

The only comparison that counts at this time is how she fares against other Republicans. And she is dwarfing, absolutely chrushing any other GOPer. At this time it's an indicator which Republican is the voice listened to and who causes interest and enthusiasm. It's Palin and no one else.

I like either combination. DeMint is very good. I think Bachmann on the ticket is a non-starter. Just for electoral and “balancing” reasons there will be an “established male Southerner” on the Palin ticket IMO.

Palin’s VP candidate is going to be Rick Perry. Those two seem very close. Both being governors, they both had to work together tons.

Immediately after resigning, it was announced that Palin was campaigning for Perry. I think this is an indication that Perry is very high up on Palin’s list and is probably the highest.

I hope not. Perry is a RINO, essentially he's Bush-Lite

We will see. But I am certain it will be a male Southern Governor or Senator. It won’t be a Congressman and not another woman.

Whatever number of them are usa citizens, they sure didnt “mobilize” when called on...didnt he try to “activate” the sleeper cells to sign up door to door support for a couple of important issues, with very little response.......

........but when given 11./hour by Soro’s he can get busloads to Townhall meetings...

problem might be....his foreign “watchers” might be the most dangerous.....all they need is a code word to activate worldwide, i wonder if him and Osama coordinate so the possibility of the same word isnt used?

LMAO..no one with a brain cell would have Rick Perry as a VP nominee. He is as dumb as a box of hair. Now That is a funny suggestion.

She gave McCain money from her PAC and I read today McCain is doing a AZ fundraiser for Romney... what’s with that! First of all why the fundraiser unless he’s announced for 2012 already and we’ve missed it, but why is McCain helping fundraise for him? I hope Sarah never gives McCain another dime.
