Jonathan Martin is stunned that Sarah is back after all his DC in-crowd buddies declared her finished (yet again) last week...

“And The Most Irresponsible Journalist Award Goes to The Politico’s Jonathan Martin!
So tell me, how do you write a “news” story about an organization paying for a speaker when you don’t even know if the organization is paying for the speaker?
Ask “journalist” Jonathan Martin. He knows all about it.
You see, Jonny wrote a piss poor story the other day about how the Iowa Family Policy Center will be paying a large speaker fee if Sarah Palin comes to Iowa to keynote the IFPC’s fall funderaiser.
The only problem is that Jonny has no sources confirming that any exorbitant fee is being charged or paid.
Jonny also got some inside info from David Kochel, who was a top aide to former (and future) presidential candidate, Mitt Romney.
Hey Dave, didn’t I just read a story about how Mitt Romney tried to buy off the Iowa Christian Alliance?
I heard you helped facilitate that little scheme. And somehow you are shocked at the thought of a well-known political figure (who very likely isn’t running for president) getting paid a speaker’s fee for (gasp) a public speaking appearance? ..
and then we’ve got Tim Albrecht quoted. He was the Iowa spokesman for Romney’s 2008 caucus campaign.”
And it always seemed like, whenever the Romney people had rumors they wanted to start about other candidates,
Jonny was their go-to guy to get those rumors in writing in front of a national audience.


"Who's the Palin Leaker from the McCain Campaign?
National Review Online The publication of a Vanity Fair profile of Sarah Palin
appears to have opened old wounds in the McCain campaign.
... the source of the “Diva” leak was Nicolle Wallace’s husband."


Who benefits most from Sanford meltdown? Californian (that's right) Mitt Romney


"Peeking Out From the McCain Wreckage: Mitt Romney"

"Someone's got to say it: IS MITT ROMNEY RESPONSIBLE FOR OBAMA'S VICTORY?"

"Vanity: Team Romney Sabotaged Palin and Continuing to Do So?"

"Romney Supporters Trashing Palin"

"Romney advisors sniping at Palin?"

Palin’s influence is unprecedented, and I mean that sincerely. And interesting group of numbers to examine...

Notice that Palin, Bachmann, and Cain, all have similar curves that seem to suggest little disagreement among conservatives about their beliefs. The others find little consensus and this presumes little solid support. A famous Laugh-In quip comes to mind... Verrrry interesting.

I agree with what others have said on other threads; when Sarah officially announces, all of the others will free-fall in the polls.

The media has been desperately trying to push others.....it’s an “Anyone but Sarah Palin” attitude.

I love the new SarahPac website......there’s just something so “campaign-ish” about it!

I just watched her Madison speech. She blew the left out of the water and issued a blunt and direct challenge to Obama. “MR. PRESIDENT: GAME ON!!!!!!”

“As has been well-documented, Palin reads most everything written about her.”

Oh really? Documented where?

“She’d have real work to do within the ranks of conservatives to become viable.”

Bullsh!t.

The insane left thought they had shut her up. All they did is stir up the internal engine of Palin and watch out crap heads, SHE'S BACK!

God bless Sarah Palin, our real last hope for this Country, if Americans are serious about reforming the Nation and demanding our representatives operate within the confines of the Constitution!

Eight deuce on the loose!

"It's a fool's errand to use traditional indicators as definitive evidence that Sarah Palin is or is not running for president. If nothing else, she's made clear since her national debut two-and-a-half years ago that she plays by her own set of rules."

He should have stopped right there.
