Sarah Palin has received a record amount in Small Donations for her PAC, better than Obama & Hillary
Thursday January 27, 2012

Political Action Committee or PAC are not used for a Presidential run, however they are used to gauge grassroots support and fundraising abilities as well as organization skills for a potential Presidential run.

Sarah Palin small donor total from her PAC is amazing and outstanding. For the 2009-2010 cycle SarahPAC raised a total of around 3.8M among small donors. In comparison, in the 2005-2006 cycle Obama’s HopeFund PAC raised a total of around 1.5M among small donors, tops among potential candidates at that time.

McCain’s StraightTalkAmerica was second with around 1.4M among small donors. No one else was even close. Romney had a total of 30k, Clinton 14k, and Rudy 9k.

In 2010 alone Palin raised around 2.4M among small donors. Again in comparison Obama raised 1.1M among small donors in 2006. So, by any measure her success among small donors is really unprecedented. It far surpasses any previous effort. Record-breaking for sure, We all recall how the media went crazy over Obama’s small donors.

Having possibly 40k-50k or better in number of small donors is a very strong base to start out with considering she began with absolutely nothing. When you add in the 200k+ email list they said they had listed in Junes numbers that were release (it's likely to be well above 300k by now), the close to 3M on facebook, and the twitter followers, she is in a very, very good position, Better than Obama and Hillary minus the big top dog donors

By the way, Palin has not had a single fundraiser for her PAC involving Top dollar donors, she appears to shun big dollars, nor does she have multiple PAC's like Mitt Romney

Consider this: Romney already had a PAC in both the 06 and 08 election cycles and had a whole network from his campaign in 08. Obama in 06 had already had a PAC up and running in 2004. Hillary in 2006 had already ran a PAC in 2000-2004.

For starting from scratch Palin broke records among small donors. Smashing them. She saw her strongest returns in the summer and fall of 2010 when they have traditionally been slow periods for PACs (ie see TEA Party)

Conclusion: Sarah Palin has an unprecedent level of support from the grassroots (average person) unmatched by anybody in recent memory. It is yet undetermined what will happen once she announces officially to run for President but by these numbers in her PAC, we may witness one of the biggest if not the biggest groundswell of Conservative grassroots movements in support of Sarah Palin. Despite what polls numbers say, she is in a very strong position over many potential candidates and even better than Obama & Hillary in comparison numbers wise - No wonder the Establishment GOP and Liberals are very afraid, Palin wields great power

No, he can’t.

And he isn’t observant enough to notice that Only Palin can speak extemporaneously on any and all subjects. The rest of them require appointments weeks in advance if you want to ask them their hat and shoe sizes.

Why do you come to Palin posts just to be a flaming bunghole and antagonize her supporters? Have you nothing better to do than constantly suck the huge root? You are a despicable piece of human scat, just another piling-on, deranged, salivating pack dog. Palin doesn't take enough trashing from your Lefty Progressive colleagues, huh urine-bug?

I really hope we meet someday. I'd like to shake your hand.

Are you kidding me? She was called C***T in Philadelphia in 2008? According to her book, I believe her daughters told her about it!

Sarah said that Bristol was publicly embarrassed by the news of her being pregnant being made fun of and laughed at...Bristol just said recently that she wants her mom to run for President, in fact Sarah said everybody in her family wants her to run!

Her family knows the risk and has already experience to meanness and rigors of a dirty campaign, they are not afraid

"You got something to say to me, say it in the forum, you idiot."

No problem, limp-slice.

Tick-tock, tick-tock. Everything you do, everything you say, sets other things into motion, and they all, in time, come right back around.

Back to you, Piss. The fruits of seeds that you sewed. The work of your own hands. Nobody messin’ with you, but you. Time wounds all heels. Piss.

Tick. Tock.

Better? Skank-wad?

How about a link

I can't believe you did that. Your PDS has obviously become malignant.

When she announces, all hell is going to break loose.

Can't wait to watch the talking heads wet their pants.
