Although I have written several columns expressing my admiration for Sarah Palin, I admit I have never taken her seriously as a 2012 presidential candidate. I've always felt that her greatest asset was as a kingmaker and behind the scenes advisor. In addition I've assumed that she wasn't that interested in pursuing the job but rather enjoyed making waves in the liberal media. The more I read the continuing attacks on Palin and her family I've started wondering why the Democrats and their media lapdogs fear her so much. Even some conservative pundits have determined that she is unelectable because of her high negatives. Those negatives are actually bogus and based on lies and misinformation and there is really only one word to describe Sarah Palin - indomitable.
Bill Maher played to the lowest common denominator and insinuated that Palin was a "dumb tw**t" and his moronic audience cheered. Ari Fleischer, a former press secretary in the George W. Bush administration, said recently that he couldn't see "any way, shape or form that [Palin] can win" the White House. Naturally there was a Public Policy poll that determined that Democratic and Independent voters would vote for Charlie Sheen over Sarah Palin. The fact that there was even such a poll should indicate the vigorous campaign to minimize her credibility as a serious candidate. Who's paying for these skewered polls anyway?
The anti-Palin campaign stretches to foreign media where Canadian TV columnist John Doyle writes in the Globe and Mail that television forever killed Palin's chances to be president. He writes: "television duly destroyed the Palin authenticity. The arc of her national political career began with a defining speech at the Republican National Convention in September, 2008,

Uh. OK. You like to get pushed around. Filed for reference.
Newbe, he has been here three years longer than you, knot the kiddy troll stuff off.
Keep it comin’ FrankR.
On a whole are country deserves to be under the hard thumb of a dictator. Parents don't go to Church and don't send their kids. There was a time when most people read the Bible at least once, now some have never opened a Bible.
Abortion is OK. Their messiah is a radical from Chicago. Good is bad. Bad is Good. Palin, a person with great character is hated, but low life's like Obama, Clinton, Madonna, are loved.
America does not deserve Palin, or Jesus our savior! Pray that God doesn't give us want we deserve, 4 more years of Zero or worse, want we really deserve.
Incoming poison to the thread: We have a community organizer in the office. What low life qualifications could be worse?
Sarah Palin is the greatest thing to happen in American politics since Ronald Reagan. I look forward to announcement, to working on her campaign, and to her victory next November.
I wish we real conservatives would split off and start our own country and leave the nut cases to wallow in their self-made hell.
Geez....I hate it when I come across a post that the rats could use as an example of a right wing WHACKO.
Sorry.

What have we here? Sounds like Islamic fundamentalism to me, and right here on Free Republic!
And one with a potty mouth to boot!

yea, she isn’t electable. you must be right... after all, tens of thousands come to hear her speak, just because they want someone else to lead them?
logic... it’s missing
Your mom must have had it pretty rough...
That got me thinking about the general division of labor in our home. Generally, I take care of the outside (vehicles, yard, structure, etc.), and Mrs Joe takes care of the inside, (cooking, cleaning, laundry, indoor child supervision, and such). Sure, either of us can do either, for the most part, we have even hunted together, but on a day to day basis, that's how it breaks down.
It is a fairly traditional American split of domestic duties.
Well, right now, America needs someone who can clean house, get the 'kids' in Congress to straighten up, do their homework and do better with their allowance, send the neighborhood hellions home, and get the books back on the shelves.
We can worry about the lawn later.
She didn't even finish her first term as governor. It's an inescapable fact. That's a decision she made. She turned her back on the voters of Alaska.
Can America risk trusting a fickle celebrity to undo the failings of the Obama regime? We already had one insane leap of faith in 2008, we don't need another in 2012.
most excellent....
And who would that be, huckleberry?
