Real Clear Politics ^ | June 4,2011

Charles Krauthammer has kind words for both Sarah Palin and Michele Bachmann. He thinks it is obvious that she is not going to run, he calls it a "smart" move. Krauthammer believes she definitely has a future in GOP politics.

Krauthammer thinks Bachmann is a serious candidate, being a sitting member of Congress and her knowledge of policy.

If Kraut says Sarah will not run enough times maybe it will come true? Unfortunately, he is forgetting to click his pink slippers together.

You would have to be deaf, dumb and blind not to see that Palin has been running since 2008. Obviously, the Depends-wearing crew of know-it-alls can’t see, or refuse to see what most of us have known. They are sowing the seeds of their irrelevance by these idiotic statements and “expert” opinions.

Krauthammer is becoming less and less relevant by the minute. Stayed in DC too long. Completely out of touch with reality, and living in his own liberal media controlled little world. Poor fellow. Time to put this irrelevant clown out to pasture.

Reagan had to stab at it a few times

The country was not facing such a doomsday scenario under either Nixon, Ford, or even Carter, as it faces now.

We will not survive under either Obama or a RINO.

"If Sarah does not run this year...."

....it will be because she feels the front-runner can do the job, like DeMint or Pawlenty - and she will help pull them over the finish line. If it looks like it will be Romney, she's in (to save us from ourselves).

It is OBVIOUS Gov. Palin is running.

No, it's not OBVIOUS. But it's clear that she is giving it serious consideration -- which is quite a different thing.

The 'One Nation' tour of the Mid-Atlantic and New England was an effort to ascertain the depth and breadth of her support.

The upcoming visit to the UK is an attempt to understand the unique requirements of leadership (Thatcher) and the unique diplomatic relationships involved (Cameron).

It's evident that Palin is giving serious consideration to running -- more consideration, perhaps, than any candidate for President has given in the past hundred years. But, no, as of now, she's not running.

Yet.

"If Sarah does not run this year she is out unless Obama wins again"

Obama will be tough to beat and anyone who thinks any Republican can beat him is smoking too much.

I don't think Romney can beat Obama but I think Palin can. And, I think Pawlenty can too...well, maybe.

Bachman, IMHO, is not a contender. She should do a term as a Governor, at least.

We need proven Constitutional Conservatives and proven Executives.

And yes, I'm fully aware Obama doesn't have what I mention above. However, he knows how to get elected and he's ruthless. Don't think A N Y Republican can beat him.

A kind word for Sarah? I’d call it a snotty dismissal—as usual.

A lot of these pundits are going to find themselves washed up has-beens, when Sarah comes riding in from the cattle drive. Or, at least, they’ll find that they have a lot of ‘splainin’ to do.

Pawlenty can’t do it.

Cain maybe, Bachman for sure..

Pawlenty? no. he’s better, but not what we need.

I have voted for him twice. and would again, but he is NOT what we need.

I know that krauthammer is nothing but a born and raised dimrat spawn from dimrat union parents and he worked for carter and mondale and he is an abortion loving, fetal stem cell abusing, big government obama butt-kissing leftist with chicken arsed lips.

You forgot gun-grabber Krauthammer is one - BIG TIME. He's for the universal banning ALL guns from ALL citizens.

“This past week Mittens tells us he believes in manmade global warming.”

5h!t.... Do all of these RINO’s believe it? Newt, Pawlenty, Mittens. And I don’t care if they earlier said they did but now don’t.

As far as I am concerned (being a Meteorologist) anyone that believes in man-made global warming is a total moron and doesn’t deserve to produce any CO2.

Why do the Republicans insist on destroying themselves by running RINOs? (That’s a rhetorical question).

Palin CAN win and I think has the best chance of winning and if she is going to run she needs to do it now.

People hear what they want to hear.

This isn't Krauthammer sucking up, this isn't back-peddling. It's consistent with what he's said in the past.

The very day she announced her resignation he was clear on what she should do: "...become a national figure, a conservative figure, work on the movement..." She's done exactly that.

He argued 2012 would be too early but by 2016 the issue of her resignation would be gone.

Kraut’s giving her a patronizing pat on her pretty little head. “Sarah, you’re quite a force, but compared to the BIG GUNS, you’re in the minor leagues, Girl. Get behind a winner such as Milt Romney, and cheer your heart out with passion!” Aw, Kraut, you’re such a sport! Bob
