Palin floats possibility of joining forces with Fox News firebrand Beck (McCainiacs attack)

WASHINGTON — Palin-Beck 2012?

Sarah Palin has suggested Fox News firebrand Glenn Beck could be someone she'd consider as a running mate if she makes a bid for the White House in two years.

"I can envision a couple of different combinations, if ever I were to be in a position to really even seriously consider running for anything in the future, and I'm not there yet," Palin told the conservative news agency Newsmax as she promoted her memoir, "Going Rogue: An American Life."

"But Glenn Beck I have great respect for. He's a hoot. He gets his message across in such a clever way. And he's so bold - I have to respect that. He calls it like he sees it, and he's very, very, very effective."

Palin and Beck have long been admirers of one another, with the former Alaska governor often praising the Fox News host on her Facebook page. A Palin-Beck ticket would be a dream come true for the legion of so-called tea party protesters vehemently opposed to Barack Obama's presidency.

Needless to say, it's a potential ticket that has some moderate Republicans squeamish.

"It's not going to happen; it's not anybody's dream," Republican strategist Charles Black, who worked on John McCain's presidential campaign last year, said Wednesday when reached at his D.C. office.

"It's way too early to be focused on it. We don't even know who's going to run."

The RINOs are scared...Judgement Day is coming!

“Palin floats possibility of joining forces with Fox News firebrand Beck (McCainiacs attack)”

I’d rather have 10 divisions of Palin/Beck in front of me than 20 Divisions of McCainiacs behind me.

“It’s not going to happen; it’s not anybody’s dream”

Both overwhelmingly true of McCain. I supposed, perhaps, it was the dream of some that McCain would win, if by “anybody’s dream” you include people who only care that he has an “R” next to his name and people who expect his victory to advance their own careers.

The MSM thinks they’ve given her a terrible beating this week, and she comes back toying with them.

I imagine she and her husband will have one of those evenings where one will just look at the other, and they’ll both burst out laughing. Then a few minutes later, they’ll do it again.

Bwahahahahahahaha!

Wonderful.

Now mix in a Bolton here, a Cheney there, along with a Bachmann, a North and a Hunter, and we’re back in business as a nation.

i wonder how many hollywood types would threaten to move to canada/france if this actually happened. the View would have to be moved off-shore!

BTW, this will never happen although i wish it would. if sarah won, beck would be a great press secretary though!

I like Glenn, but he’s where we need him to be. I would rather see Palin/Hunter or Hunter/Palin.

I hope she’s kidding. If not, this makes her look like a flake. Choosing a VP nominee because he’s a “hoot.” I love Beck, but no way is he qualified to be VP. He would be the first to say so.
