FYI.
Yeah, but she let her little daughter ride on the back of a motorcycle. (hah, and that’s the ONLY thing they can definitively say against her—and that one is so weak, it only draws laughter. I know lots of guys who were DRIVING tractors at Piper’s age!)
Palin is pro-life -- nothing could be more clear.
Pro-life people oppose Embryonic Stem Cell research.
If Palin becomes president, Krauthammer's hopes of walking again will be dashed.
QED
There's yer problem - they're not conservatives strategists, they're republican strategists.
Not an ideological bone in most of em. Cain, Palin, are outside of DC phenomena and a threat to these guys' livelihoods as beltway pundits.
A meritocracy? Anayzing positions and choosing the one that best reflects the nation’s historic values? My God, man, what are you thinking? /sarc.
I’ve been more and more impressed with Palin this last week, not just in her incredibly astute playing of the MSM, but in her increasingly articulate explanations of her positions.
Colonel, USAFR
I heard Mark’s rant last night, and I’m telling you, it was one for the Talk Radio Hall of Fame.
He completely demolished the elitist PDSers in the media for their abject lack of substantive arguments against Palin, or her politics.
Absolutely brilliant.

Me too.
Sick and tired of these elitist champagne and caviar pinheads telling everyone what can and cannot, should and shouldn`t be.
Hooray for Levin! Hooray for Palin!
There are more issues than this one where these “conservative” pundits reveal that for them, being part of the establishment is much more important than standing for firm conservative principles.
Think about Krauthammer’s and Rove’s and Kristol’s, et al., stance on amnesty, Tea Party adherents, and numerous other issues.
Unfortunately, they get to set the agenda on TV and in the press. For example, open borders and amnesty are existential threats to the United States and the American culture, but do you think it will even become an issue during the coming campaign?
They hate Palin and Cain, because they are not one of them.
Here’s a chance to pick up a $100 reward from me - prove by some real metric (grades, IQ tests, etc.) that Obama is smarter than Palin. My $100 is safer than the depleting gold at Ft. Knox. Yet Rove and Krauthammer subscribe to the view that Palin is a stupid dunce, and Obama is a genius.
I take Krauthammer and George Will with a grain of salt. Occasionally they still say something useful, but they can’t extricate themselves from the wreck of the old Republican machine. Palin is about the future.
As smears go, Krauthammer’s are sort of benign, IMO.
No he's not! He's a repulsive neocon. There's nothing conservative about him and he's always nasty. Levin knows it. Levin is a very poor actor.
So would Cristie have to quit as NJ governor if he runs?
Good for Levin to stand up for Sarah.
I would vote for Palin in a second, but worry that she may not be the right candidate to win this time because of the negative image that has been manufactured.
Read an anti-Palin column today in the WSJ that seems to confirm my fears — “The Problems with Palin”, by Stassel.
Key quote:
“The stakes in 2012 are high. Mr. Obama is a sitting president. It will take a mighty GOP nominee (not to mention a lot of luck) to knock him off. Mrs. Palin would come into this race with little or no infrastructure, a near complete lack of a policy agenda, and eye-popping unfavorables. Nothing is impossible in politics, but her start is not encouraging.”

What irritates me is when Juan Williams uses the word, “Jealousy,” when he compares Governor Palin to Congresswoman Bachmann. It really ticks me off when these men state that only one woman can run. They should also state that Governor Romney should be the only man that can run. They don’t hear themselves talk and how sexist their speech is towards a female presidential contender. It really is a turn off.
Krauthammer was Walter Mondale’s speech writer.
Krauthammer is about as conservative as Kathleen Parker, i.e. labeled as such to get pundit gigs with the lamestream media.
One of Levin’s best shows!
I’m listening to the recording right now. It is quite good.... perhaps historic.
Krauthammer, Rove and their merry band of elitists, can go straight to hell.
In my world, Fox is now on it’s deathbed.
