Sarah Palin is a polarizing figure on the political landscape. She's one of those individuals people either love and support wholeheartedly or they absolutely loathe her. There seems to be no middle ground.

The media created that out of thin air, she was always a uniting and universally liked figure before August 29, 2008. Governor Palin was the most popular Governor in America with approval reaching as high as 93%, The Weekly Standard believed her to be the most popular elected official in America in 2007, then she became a threat to national liberalism and the hatchet jobs started.

"Comments?"

Yes.

“Wow, and thank you too Shelly for that kind introduction, and thank you so much for your endorsement, and with your help, Shelly, in November, all of us, who consider ourselves progressive, yet at the same time we can be conservative, we’re gonna shatter the highest, hardest glass ceiling in America."

Enough said.

"I've always liked McCain, and had we grabbed him instead of Bush in 2000, America would be in much better shape right now. But that's another article altogether. "

Yeah sure! However, I'd have to post this in spanglish...Assuming, that is, that Pres McCain and VP Feingold hadn't already eliminated ALL free speech...

That is funny because I feel the same way everytime I see that dork of their’s Obama.

The reason that liberal democrats are increasingly concerned about Palin is her growing ability to raise money for candidates. Demo $ are dropping way off, that will be their undoing.

Why isn't Odumbo viewed as “polarizing?”

Yeah, it isn't possible. The Democrats ARE the anti-christ.

“Sarah Palin is a polarizing figure”

All conservatives and all public figures with integrity who accomplish positive things are described as “polarizing” by the MSM. Ronald Reagan was called polarizing throughout his career. Reagan like Sarah Palin was also regularly called dumb and a dunce.

Liberals like Walter Mondale, for example, are almost never called polarizing.

When the MSM calls people polarizing it means they are a honorable public officials who are hated by the Washington elites.

no President anytime in the foreseeable future is going to touch either of these hot-button issues when there are so many pressing problems to deal with... Tossing out a candidate based on their personal religious and ideological beliefs, which won't play into their Whitehouse term is faulty thinking.

uh... judicial appointments, SCOTUS, hello?

Considering the self avowed political leanings of the author: Surprising, and fair. A good article 2DV, thanks for posting.

Let’s not let that slam on her performance in Wasilla go unchallenged either. Naturally it’s unemployment is higher now because no part of the US is immune to Obama’s disastrous policies, but Wasilla is still the fastest-growing city in the state and has a diverse and stable economy.

These moonbats whine over $20 million in city debt. That’s not out of line for a community that size and was used to build public infrastructure not just as handouts to pay people for not working or print stupid signs trying to convince people that ARRA created jobs.

“condoms or the pill”

Well, I’m married and have never used a condom - never wanted to.

And the pill messes with a woman’s hormones.

If Sarah is opposed to these, so what?

I love Sarah Palin. And I love the way she drives so many liberals mad.

[budwiesest]

She doesn't get snarky and lash out at those who dislike or oppose her. She simply smiles and focuses on those that do care and are listening. Oddly, those are signs of a good leader.

I'm so glad this was written as it goes very deep in defining a person who has vision and cares not so much where others would like to divert them. The confidence that one has to have and the tolerance toward others who wish to cast doubt is seen in this demeanor. The grace not to respond 'snarkly' is an added bonus.

This is a person who can stay on point, can reach a destination, all the while assuring that you'll know where you're headed. Such a person would make a good hunting guide or a very good President.

Very soon, people will be desperately seeking that very endangered and rare animal: limited, constitutional, government. Sarah would be the best guide while being the most gracious to grumpy tag holders. To bag a trophy a lot of time and effort will be required, a good guide with instincts and focus is what you're paying for and with experience, your best bet.

I'd like to fill my tag this November and in 2012. May the best 'guide' win.

“Fox thinks he can do no right”

Great way to write an article. Make comments about cable channels you obviously never watch.

I always find it amusing when the liberals compare qualifications between Palin and Obama. Firstly, Palin was just running for VP, not President like Obama was. And secondly, Obama still loses out to Palin in the qualification comparison. Scary the clown in chief America took a flier on.

" the small town she left behind is now in financial ruin."

Um, no... I live there. No "financial ruin" anywhere that I can see. Perhaps the writer was mistaken.
