I'm beginning to really like Sarah Palin. I love her energy.
She's such a very sharp lady. She was great on Fox tonight covering the elections.
I just get the feeling anything she does she gives it %110.
And the way she's delt publicly with all the disgusting crap that's been thrown at her... a lot of class there.
She seems to be a person of good character.
If she runs in 2012 I'll vote for her. That's the highest compliment I can give.

I’ve liked Palin from the moment I first saw and heard her at the Republican convention in 2008. I read her book. I’ll read her next one. But she will not get my support for a presidential run for one reason: she and her family do not deserve what her critics will dish out if she runs. I think Palin is more effective as a king maker. I predict she will nominate the next POTUS.
I’ve been a Palin supporter and still send her money regularly. However, I listened to a snippet of her as she came on Fox last night and was not impressed. Too much excitement, too many words too fast, all seemed shallow and repetitive. I had a tough time listening to her, because I want her to succeed. I admit that the venue was a really tough one, though. I hope she projects more substance in the future. Live TV is pretty tough, I guess.
That special thing she has just scares the crap out of the repubs and Tokyo Rove.

She was asked to comment on the election. It was her excitement that I liked so much. She just has this glow about her.
Even Geraldine Ferraro was respectful to her.
It's a strong temptation to want her to be so articulate every moment of every day that she's bullet proof ... just so impressive that even the far left will sing her praises. Well... that's not going to happen. It's important to remember that her goal right now is to be liked. To get people to be comfortable with her.
What's your reaction when someone attacks a person you like? If the moderates begin to like her...and the left attacks...the moderates will defend her.
Her goal isn't to set policy or to deliver the greatest speeches of all time... her goal is just to get people comfortable with her. To like her.
She's doing a heck of a good job at accomplishing her goal. I swear that smile of hers is infectious.
The far left already know this...she scares them to death. I read their forums. They are scared of Sarah Palin on a lot of different levels.
I think if she keeps this kind of exposure up for two more years, she's totally electable.
All you liberals have the same speak - you’re boring but predictable!
