Analysis: Palin's celeb feuds don't lead to the W.H.
Politico ^ | 3/7/1 | Andy Barr

Posted on 03/07/2011 7:32:22 PM PST by pissant

Sarah Palin is making her priorities clear – celebrity feuds trump visiting early states and building an organization.

Much was made of Palin’s hire of Mike Glassner as her chief of staff, but since then her operation has not begun to look any more like a campaign in waiting. Continue Reading

She has yet to hire additional staff to make a political play. And the contrasting 2012 storylines today serve as good a reminder as any recently of just how far Palin is from running for president.

In Iowa, five presidential candidates of various stature are participating in one of the first cattle calls at the Faith and Freedom Coalition forum.

And what’s Palin doing?

She’s in a celeb-feud with Kathy Griffin, who is pretty transparently using the conflict to promote her coming Broadway performance.

imagine that. She’s “feuding” with a woman who stated she hates Palin and will ridicule her daughters and now is playing a caricature of Palin on Glee.

Guess self defense is now “feuding”.

Not you again with yet another anti-Palin post on FR?!

Dude, you are going to have to eat some serious crow when Palin wins the 2012 GOP nomination. We are watching history unfold and you are in lock step with the increasingly irrelevant dinosaur media.

Doesn’t matter to Piss-Sh!t. The guy will attack anything that threatens his pet candidate. Last time out it was “Hunter or Death”. Someone with Zero chance. Why?

My Q is, who does the pisser work for? Think about his “chosen” screen name. It’s something that a flaming left wing comedian would come up with. Someone like one of the many Seth’s in Hollywood. Pissant has become the single biggest distraction from within on many Free Republic threads.

The biggest red flag is he never defends “his” true position.

Wow! Just reading your last rant against Palin tells me all I need to know.

You have serious issues with beautiful, strong women who are not afraid to challenge the party hierarchies or the status quo. Sarah is successful and stands a real chance of becoming POTUS unlike your preferred candidates. Not a one you mentioned is in the top tier which is Mitt, Huck, Sarah, and maybe Pawlenty.

No wonder you are bitter and so hateful towards Sarah. You’ve got Palin Envy!

Must be tough to be a Politico goon like Barr and have to get up each morning knowing it’s another day of performing fellatio on Obama. Or maybe he likes it!

Where Sarah Palin may concern some republicans or independents like myself, a huckaboo or mitchovitch Commney candidacy would break the republicans forever.

This isn't 2008, and people won't unite under a rino.

Even if it means obama wins.

S. T. F. U.

Seriously. You whine and moan if she doesn't fight back. You whine and moan when she does.

The hand of Odin could come down and anoint her as His chosen and you'd complain that it wasn't Vishnu who anointed her instead.

Get a grip...

Face it. She’s toast. And for many good reasons. Not the least of which is her McCainsian liberalism. The only ones doing any anointing are her cultists

Palin isn’t involved in “fueds”, she’s defending herself and her family when attacked. She hasn’t started one of these things.

How ridiculous. Bachmann is stronger, more beautiful, and a helluva lot more conservative. ANd unless DeMint steps in to run, she and Cain are my choices for President.

Yeah, I seem to remember Reagan taking on Johnny Carson and the SNL crew and George Carlin

Reagan was right for his time, but it was a different time. Maybe Palin is right for this time, maybe not. I don’t know yet. No one knew Reagan’s greatness before it happened. She still didn’t start any of it. Defending yourself or your family is not a crime or a personality disorder.

BTW, you do more FOR Palin on this board than any supporter of hers. Keep up the good work.

No one knew Reagan’s greatness. But they knew his unbridled conservative message, which he had honed since 1964. They knew two successful terms in the state of CA. And they knew he was the leader of the conservative wing of the party and a fantastic speaker. Considering Palin supports the feminist, federal government, powergrabbing boondoggle (Title IX) which Reagan tried to kill (but whose veto was over-ruled by the dems and RINOs) and she ignorantly supports the sovereignty usurping UN power grab (LOST) which Reagan did kill - temporarily - let’s look for someone who at least understands what Reagan stood for.

I don’t know who I want to support yet. So far, every Republican that seems electable has some negatives. However, you are not helping your cause. I know you won’t believe this, so go ahead, continue to not help your cause. And good luck!

[Pxxxxxx has become the single biggest distraction from within on many Free Republic threads]

I’m a huge Palin fan, but I like and support other consrvatives too. Pxxxxxx’s posts wouldn’t bother me if they were being done constructively, so we could all learn and get better. But they are all snide, venomous and 100% devoted to dragging Palin down no matter what the truth of the matter. Yup, he has become a huge distraction, you can’t open a Palin thread of any sort without being sucked into his nasty vortex.

Don't confuse Carling with objectivity and logic backed up with facts.

Huh? As a polished politician, Palin should have just said she had no comment on Kathy Griffin, and that she would like to stick to substantive issues. Calling into question my objectivity and logic was unnecessary, whoever you are.

Correct me if I'm wrong, pissant, but aren't don't you coordinate the Michelle Bachman/2012 PING list on FR?

These Palin cultists are basically Obamabots in terms of their refusal to look critically and see the faults of Palin as both a conservative and a candidate for President. I guess I don't see why it's such a bad thing to try and vet all potential GOP candidates for 2012. Romney and Newt aren't even worth discussing, because nobody on FR (well, hardly anybody) sees them as ideal candidates, and those that support them should be purged.

If Palin wins the GOP nomination, I will back her 100%, unlike the 50% support I gave to McLame. Until we have a nominee, however, what is wrong with people trying to promote “their” primary candidates, even if it means pointing out potential weaknesses in rival candidates?

You have fallen hook, line, and sinker for every bit of contrived tripe invented against Palin. You are hardly an unbiased source and have completely trashed any credibility you may have had.

Bachmann is my Congresscritter. I need her to stay right where she is.

I like Cain too. However, neither of them have the National, much less International, exposure that Palin has.

She can make the negative criticisms from Left-tards work for her. Just like others have done.

Pissant means “no brain scumbag”

People who agree with him, aid victims.
