However, she is on Fox constantly, many of the right talking heads love her and promote her (Rush, Hannity, etc), and the AmSpec, Human Events, Townhall - the conservative electronic media - by and large cover her far more than the others.

You're jealous.
Leadership means developing a message, articulating the message then creating enthusiasm around the message. Sarah Palin has done all three. Duncan Hunter has not. There is a reason she gets the attention and to minimize these three dynamics only makes you look small minded. I have no doubt that Mr. Hunter is a fine man and and exceptional legislator, but in the critical elements of leadership he has failed. He certainly would be a tremendous asset to a president, but he has not demonstrated that he has the qualities that rally people around him. That is not Governor Palin's nor any of her supporters on this boards fault.

I’m jealous? ROFL.

I’m just stating facts. I could say very similar things about Newt. He’s damn near in the media as much as Palin.

And you keep pulling Hunter up. I have no idea if he intends to even run. But I do have a good notion that DeMint will. And that will be perfectly satisfactory to me.

Absolutely spot on. Pissant and others are concerned about their own preferences getting oxygen, so they try to pull Palin back to the crowded 1%'ers pack.

They should be promoting their own candidates without resorting to anklebiting and sloganeering. If their picks are good enough, they will emerge on their own merits. They need to show that they can rise above the pack, even if they have the right principles.

In the meantime, the quality of the forum here degenerates into a joke with flip-flopping deceit and hypocrisy by people with too little brains and too much time.
