Sarah Palin Says She Could Beat Obama
ABC News ^ | Nov. 17, 2010 | MARY BRUCE

Posted on 11/17/2010 2:27:51 PM PST by E. Pluribus Unum

Sarah Palin says she is seriously considering a run for the White House, and she believes she could beat President Obama in 2012, the former Alaska governor told ABC News' Barbara Walters. "I'm looking at the lay of the land now, and ... trying to figure that out, if it's a good thing for the country, for the discourse, for my family, if it's a good thing," Palin said in an interview scheduled to air in full Dec. 9 on ABC as part of Walters' "10 Most Fascinating People" of 2010.

Actually, I think she wants it so bad that she’ll do anything.

However, I was referring to the issue of finding a virgin in Arkansas. Hence, Hillary. :) Ok, it was weak and racy, but...

Will not the primary season take her out if she is such a flawed candidate?


That’s what primaries are for. She is perfectly able to defend her positions because she really believes in her positions. Yes the opposition will throw everything at her and so will the media, but they will do that to whoever the nominee is.

Now is the time for image repair and that’s what she’s doing with the new book, the TV series, and the FoxNews gig. She’s also been taking on Obama at every turn and even Bernanke and coming out on top. There will be plenty of time to debate the issues when the campaign starts. Right now she is making liars out of the dems who called her the devil incarnate. She’s even getting a little respect out of the NYT.

For those talking about Hillary being the candidate, remember Hillarycare and all the blown foreign trips by Obama to sign new agreements. It’s the job of the Sect of State to do the groundwork on those agreements. Seems like she hasn’t been doing her job and Obama has been clueless enough to make the trips anyway.

So,let’s wait for the primaries and see who she brings out vs. who Romney can motivate to vote for him. Romney surrogates have been campaigning against Sarah since 2008 and so far she’s winning. Obama’s been trying to counter her tweets and so far is losing. The people will decide.

if the economy improves

And what would bring that about? Are you one of those people who think that electing Republicans to the House and extending the Bush tax cuts will magically fix the economy? Or is it one of those clueless 'the economy is cyclical' things?

Yeah girl works fine for me, young lady is probably more formal and appropriate now though. As a pro-lifer, I like her efforts in behalf of life and abstinence.

Thanks very much, Al B.!

Your posts always have good links which all the doubters can access!

You wrote,
"SP is ramping up the talk of her running. She may indeed announce sooner rather than later. Those of us that support her need to be ready. As she said after the mid-terms, it will need to be a grassroots effort like no other."

Well, even now idiot BOR is leading off his show with her "teasing the media" and Dick Morris to analyze....

BOR is bloviating now - admits Romney is not a favorite of conservatives.

BOR says Sarah's experience is "skant."

Imho, Obama will do every dirty trick in the book to artificially inflate employment along with whatever slight of hand he can work in other areas of the economy. It’s amazing what the unscrupulous can accomplish. Those who are honest have difficulty imagining what can be done by those who have no integrity.

This one troll posts on ALMOST EVERY, IF NOT EVERY SARAH PALIN THREAD.

Now, s/he is posting against Bristol Palin?

You need another hobby, ari_freedom.

Can you imagine being married to someone that is so unforgiving? Make a life mistake and I guess the world ends!

I never mentioned the kids you did. I also think you are a silly person. Your post insinuated that somehow if two kids have known each other from grade school to high school, that having sex in high school is almost a common thing and to be ignored. Surely you can see that. You could have just said that the girl made a mistake, she paid for it, and has a nice kid she supports. How is that slutty?

I went to school with many boys my whole life, but my mother wouldn’t have considered it excusable or normal to have those relationships culminate in sex in high school.

Not that Sarah did either. Doesn’t make Bristol a slut. Makes her a kid that got caught up, probably schmoozed by Levi.

I have never on this site posted nasty things about Palin’s family. She has a lovely family. So don’t try to make me look like I did.

Sorry, but I am not here to take time out to answer your open ended, wide ranging questions about various candidates.

Your man is an establishment moderate that is calling for a surrender on social issues, with almost zero showing as a presence for the primary.

Palin is the primary front runner, while also being the favorite of conservatives, and you are trying to knock her out of the race, that is some serious business there.

Know a good artist or someone really good with Photoshop? It would be just too good of a pic to see Jesus driving Obama out of the White House.

I know that Gallup tilts left, but here’s their survey from a few days ago:

http://www.gallup.com/poll/144491/Palin-Unfavorable-Score-Hits-New-High.aspx

52% unfavorable.

The MSM perceived her as a major threat to their chosen one back in 2008 and unleashed the full fury upon her. I believe she has been sufficiently damaged in the minds of enough voters that her “upside” is limited. That’s all. I have no grudge against her and love the fact that she drives liberals insane.

Me, a Romney-bot???? Might want to read some of my other postings.
