If she goes out there on a regular basis debating candidates for the Republican nomination she will change minds easily IMO.

IMO the reason for her not being loved is Democrats see her as a threat and have gone after her since her VP nod. They even caused her to resign as Gov of Alaska by making her defend baseless lawsuits that were making her personal estate go broke. I remember if she stayed she would have been about 3 million in debt at the end of her first term as Gov.

Republicans see how she ignites hatred of liberals the way Hillary does conservatives and they don’t know what that will bring in an election. Also lets face the fact that Republicans haven’t been the party of smaller government and accountability lately, so that talk by her is also challenging to them IMO.

I think she would be a great President. She has a solid conservative balanced view on things and she has a spine.

God Bless her, if nothing else she’s going to become very wealthy expressing herself.

I like her(I really do), but I don’t think she stands a chance in hell of winning a presidential election.


Conservatives have been saying stuff like this for decades. “It would be great if so-and-so was President, but they’ll lose big time, so I’ll support candidate Milquetoast.” It’s time we quit worrying about what “they” will do or say or how “they” will vote and start supporting the candidates we really want in office. Look what happened in this election. By supporting real conservatives, many were elected to office. Yes, there were losses, but even where the candidates left much to be desired, a conservative fire was lit in those states that will burn brightly in the future.

I will support the candidate who will take Obama on or Hillary if need be. The only one consistently speaking out against Obama is Palin. When others chime in it’s usually following Palin’s lead. It’s passed time for these guys to start speaking out. Their silence is sealing their defeat. If we choose one of them to run, they will lose. Their heart is not in the fight.

“The fact that they’re screaming hysterically about it, and attacking her through anonymous sources, speaks volumes.”

Exactly. Don’t so much listen to what they say, watch what they do.

But I believe that all people are created in the image of G-d. Even someone like you.

She also asked a young man who sang a song, if he wanted to sing at an inauguration. She clarified by saying, “Not necessarily mine”. She’s tweaking them big-time.

So in the ‘12 primaries, Huck takes Iowa, Romney takes New Hampshire and Palin wins South Carolina. Where does that leave us?

and I don’t believe ‘independents’ like her all that much

Hogwash.

Independents went from D+7 in 2006, to R+19 in 2010, a shift to the right of R+26 among 'independents'.

It damn sure wasn't the establishment RINOs rallying them to vote against communism.

"She's too polarizing! But Mitt Romney/Mike Huckabee would be fine choices"

Not polarizing.

She's grizzlyizing.

Maybe I see ‘anointing’ and ‘grace’ different than most.

I was not saying that God has decided, or arranged for Sarah Palin to be the next President.

What I have witnessed is that her daily actions bring her the grace (or anointing) of God. Whether she even runs for President, and that ‘grace’ benefits her, is another story.

I don’t think huck takes IA. and I doubt huck runs at all. If hucvk stays out you have Palin winning IA, Mitt and Newt splitting NH vote giving Palin a strong second good theird place finish and then winning SC and Mitt and Palin fighting in NV and MI.

Mi has been from day one where Palin is going to fight. both in the primary and in the general. she understands MI.

His thoughts are not our thoughts

True.

But if we make our thoughts his thoughts, then we receive the anointing.

I think you should look up the meaning of ANOINTED as it applies to the Bible.

Anyone can be ‘anointed’. But you have to first ‘walk the walk’.

It doesn’t mean ‘the chosen one’. And I know that is what MOST FREEPERS here are thinking.
