I admire your perseverance. I shutter to think of all the ones you’ve faithfully visited so far. You have a far stronger stomach than I.

Forrest is my favorite General. What an awesome man.
Palin is an awesome woman!

Palin is the one candidate in the GOP who has the resolve and political skill to take similar political and rhetorical hits, because she understands one thing: We have the numbers. The other side knows what she is doing and they know the threat she poses for them. Her strategy is not complicated. Our side has the numbers, but has heretofore lacked the will to mobilize them.
Game on!
Run Sarah, Run!

I think the trolls do admire Sarah, secretly. ;-) Look at list compiled in post #5. You've got to visit all the Sarah threads ever posted to compile such a list. That requires a certain commitment!! How can you have such a commitment for someone you don't like?

That thought process is as rational as claiming that Mothers Against Drunk Driving spend so much time warning about the dangers of drunk driving because they secretly admire Colt 45 Malt Liquor.

Have you ever considered that the commitment might be to the survival of the United States of America?

Barack Hussein Obama is destroying the fabric of America and Palin Worshipers are dead set determined to nominate a woman, ..... (with, I will admit, great legs) ...... that SEVENTY TWO PERCENT (72%) of all voters believe would NOT make a good President.

How can Barack Hussein Obama, who approximately 55% of the voters believe is NOT a good President, get easily reelected?

You have him run against a candidate who 72% of the voters believe would NOT be a good President.

It's not Rocket Science.

What mind altering drug are you people on?

Look at this vanity. Can the Sarah Palin Cult of Personality and the Palin Worshiping get any more absurd? It comes within half an inch of violating the First Commandment.

Barack Hussein Obama is far too dangerous for the future of America for you people to be gushing over Sarah Palin as if you were 13 girls at a Justin Bieber concert.

Back on the Planet Earth, this is the reality of Sarah Palin:

FOX News Poll (February 7-9, 2011)

Question 3: I am going to read you a list of names. Tell me if you think that person would make a good President or not.

Sarah Palin:

.................YES.........NO.......DK.....Never heard of

ALL...........23%.......72%.........4%.......1%

Dem ...........7%........87%........5%.......1%

Rep ...........40%.......56%.......3%.......1%

Ind ...........25%........69%.......3%.......1%

Why am I so opposed to the Republican nomination of Sarah Palin?

Because I would bet my life that any Republican nominee with such toxic poll numbers absolutely GUARANTEES the reelection of Barack Hussein Obama and America simply cannot afford such a disaster.

If Sarah Palin were to be compared accurately to any Civil War era politician, on the core moral question of the day, it would have to be Democrat Stephen A. Douglas. He was pro-choice for states on slavery, and she is pro-choice for states on abortion.

Not worth a nickel to me. Lots of pundits will be eating their words and bowing before Palin power by the time she is elected president.

And I’d call at least some of her opponents an army of McClellans.

McClellan actually looks decisive compared to the seven (or so)dwarfs lined up against her.

The opponents I had in mind aren’t necessarily the ones running for office, but yeah, some of those guys have sat there and watched things happen, too.

Hey Poly!, you should not bet your life on “POLLS” at this point! Life is really good, take a walk, go fishing, whatever!

Let’s revisit this subject (Sarah’s polls) this coming January 1.............IF SHE RUNS!

For what it is worth, the forum your own is not impressed with your point! Try another one!

Polybius is a funny one.

Four years ago, he/she was telling us that if Rudy were the nominee, we should support him.

Now, when Polubius is asked if he would support Palin if she were the nominee, he/she refuses to answer.

Go figure.

I am sick and tired of hearing the Mainstream Media meme repeated, over and over that Sarah Palin is stupid, unelectable, unqualified, a quitter, et al.

LISTEN to the woman, for God’s sake! Listen to the speech she just gave in Madison the other day and tell me again how badly she stinks. No, don’t just dismiss her out of hand like the media wants you to ... actually LISTEN to her damn speech first.

For my entire life (with few exceptions) I’ve been stuck voting for the lesser of two evils, where one candidate completely sucks and the other one ... uh ... doesn’t suck quite as much. Reagan was the only candidate for President that I actually WANTED to vote for, instead of voting AGAINST the other jerk.

Sarah Palin is a breath of fresh air. Here we have someone with ACTUAL American values and an outspoken belief in God. I don’t CARE what faults you can find with her. She speaks and I hear what she’s saying and I like the message. The GOP hasn’t even produced a viable candidate yet, let alone a front-runner, yet here is someone who draws crowds without even making an announcement of candidacy!

Let the American public hear what she has to say ... not what the media wants us to think of her ... and she will go far and strong! The days of letting the big media tell us who our candidates should be is over! GO SARAH!

“that SEVENTY TWO PERCENT (72%) of all voters believe would NOT make a good President.”

I have not made a choice yet because I have not hears any positions other than generalities. No one has made a campaign speech. No one has had a debate. How can anyone have an opinion and call themselves a rational, thinking person. (OK, some who have followed Romney, or Huck might have enough info to make a fairly reasoned opinion!).

As to me, I will wait a year or so!

OK, what does this mean exactly 'the numbers', if it means anything.

Didn't she run as VP in 2008? Where were the 'numbers' then?

I shudder to think what the list would look like if I’d visited all of them.

You're such a phony, as is your list.

I saw how you added "terminator", watched as you did it.

Would you care to show us who posted that and why? I bet you won't because it would embarrass you to the heavens, and show what a crap, absolutely false pretense of a list you have made. It's a perfect example of why no one listens to you but a handful of PDSers.

The fact that you would make such a false list shows what you've become, and it ain't pretty. Congratulations, you make KOS proud of you.......
