I happen to agree with Jay, but quite possibly Sarah is on the cutting edge, not me.
I would be quite happy to be wrong in this case.
Like any candidate, Palin has pros and cons..but i don’t get this constant criticism that she has some sort of deficiency on issues. She is crystal clear on issue after issue. As Alaska governor she was more in tune with foreign issues than any other governor running now or in any recent election with regular briefings on Russia.. She is the most advanced governor on energy policy of any candidate in history. This criticism. Is totally bunk. Where is Pawlenty or Romney more advanced on policy issues? Both championed terrible positions as governor. if huntsman enters, is Utah some major breeding ground for white house preparation? Was Arkansas major league training for president 20 years ago. This is such a faulty argument against Palin. In addition, how do all these experts know what she did or didn’t do in policy study the past two years. She seems to have a grasp on things to me. She has made policy opinions in real time in the past year and a half and her views have proven to be right on time and again.
You paint NRO with too broad a brush - Andy McCarthy, Jay Nordlinger are conservatives through and through.
Ahhh
The politically coorect "homage" to the Soviet Politburo's clean and buff "Hero of the Revolution" directing his penetrating gaze to the bright future just over the horizon,
Ecce Homo Novus Willardius!
It seems more like a criticism to me.
She has boned up on issues! It’s just that most choose to ignore them! Have any major or potential candidate including President Obama come out with a 5 point approach to military intervention? Has any talked in a major speech and op-Ed about the ill effects of QE2 and the role of the Federal Reserve? Mitt? Tim? Bachmann? Has anyone dissected Obama’s energy plan like Sarah? Well? Who gave a warning about coming inflation and the falling dollar among the potentials 2 years ago? Anybody other than Palin? I rest my case!
Worth repeating! (But louder ;>).....)
With regard to Sarah Palin, I see two common types of posts (neither being 'good' IMHO): 1) she can do no wrong and is our ONLY hope (um, no); and 2) she can do no right, will never be able to win, blah, blah, blah (could have come straight from DU). FR is better than this.
bttt
From the statements I’ve heard her make, I would say Palin has a very good grasp of foreign issues. She is a strong supporter of defense and Israel. And she wouldn’t be returning busts of Winston Churchill. Of course, the only source of legitimate comparison is with other conservatives because virtually all Dems are morons on both domestic and foreign issue. With every utterance, Mitt Romney sounds more and more like a RINO. His support for AGW might make it very difficult for him to get traction mext year. That with Romney-care a disaster makes him far from the best candidate. Palin is looking better and better.
Yes, she is! The meme that she needs to get serious about the issues is an intentionally misleading narrative designed by her detractors to influence the minds of the average Joe who doesn't take the time to actually listen to what Palin says. Let's face it, it's not like the MSM highlights her policy positions - they're too busy try to find any little nit they can hold up as evidence that she's not ready for prime time.

You forgot “gun grabber” — this “conservative” signed an “assault weapons” ban.
As bad as the fascist in the White Hut is, I’d still sit out the election or vote write-in if this two-faced slimball is the pubbies nominee...
Thanks. You did it the better way. Team work!
The thing is, she didn’t just wake up one morning of a normal, routine gubernatorial term and say, “Hey, I’m tired of this. I want to go make money and do reality shows and buy a place in Phoenix.” That’s not how it happened. That’s about as far as it can be from how it actually happened. The gov pulled the plug on her term early for a reason and it wasn’t just because she wanted to. It’s incredibly irritating that I and many others saw that at the time, and still do, and others, some ostensibly as well or better situated to follow the story (like, let’s say, a senior editor of the American conservative movement’s magazine of record) still don’t. Or are willing to gloss over it.
