LSM banking everything against Sarah Palin next week, pushing hard for Bachmann
Opinion/mine/wearning/prediction | July 08 2011 | FriendofGeorge

Posted on 07/08/2011 6:33:31 AM PDT by Friendofgeorge

Gov Sarah Palin`s biggest week in sometime begins next week with the release of her film The Undefeated. I believe we are going to see the MSM/Rep Establishment in their biggest attack on Gov Palin, perhaps ever.

They have already been pushing Michele Bachmann, but you aint seen nothing yet. The LSM has a whole slue of polls that are due to be released next week, and they are going to all say that Sarah Palin is only a memory, no longer even relevant.

At the same time their polls will show Michele Bachmann way out in front...FOR SURE THESE ARE ALL LIES!!!

Am talking CNN WSJ/NBC and some others. These particular pollsters have not yet released any numbers since MB has entered the race officially, so they are set to come out with one goal in mind, to try and promote Bachmann, while at the same time tearing down Gov Palin.

Nothing new right? Yes but this is really their final push, and they are going to use everything they have. This is a joint effort by MSM and Rep Establishment.

They do not even like Michele Bachmann, it`s just that they are using her as a tool to try and destroy Gov Palin. I believe it is working to some extent, just look here at FR to see the folks that have been sucked in.

They are not troubled by the fact that their candidate MB has been basically adopted by much of the LSM. Everybody from Chris Matthews to Andrea Mitchell...the list is long

Charles Krauthammer, The Weekly Standard, National Review for the Rep Establishment...they do not really like MB either, again just using her with the hope that they can finally get rid of Sarah Palin, this is what it is all about, nothing more!

I do not even believe in the "science" of political polling, am just making a prediction/warning.

So it`s important that we do not fall for these phony polls that are coming out in a flood next week, they are all lies.

I also think that it is strange that some of these pollsters have remained silent as long as they have since MB announcement, very suspicious? I was sure CNN/NBC would have released a special poll outside of their monthly polls? Perhaps they did and did not like the numbers?

Next week is the big push, so everybody beware.

Oh, cut it out. Sarah is my first choice as well.

But we could do a hell of a lot worse than Michele Bachmann. The LSM isn't pushing her. They just got caught off-guard by her sudden rise in the polls.

They are most likely dumpster diving to find dirt on her now.

She has been a surrogate for Sarah, since Sarah has not yet declared.

It is Sarah they truly fear.

If they thought Bachman could win, the Left wouldn't be saying she could.

They fear Sarah can win, so they claim she can't win.

Everything they say is the opposite of the truth. They are actually telling us what we should do to win, if we just listen and do the opposite.

Bachmann would be left shredded and vaporized the second she wasn’t being helpful to the Dems/Establishment. She’s the easiest target they’ve seen to tear down in quite some time.

Absoflippinlutely.

Bachmann got to where she is by having been an “ACTIVIST”! - with a very specific ‘interest’ driven agenda. (on issues, by the way, that I personally agree with).

HOWEVER, that being said, PALIN’s background is much different than BACHMANN’s - and this is why PALIN has a stronger and deeper support level than Bachmann.

PALIN’ accomplishments and 20 year political career is NOT based on having been an activist for specific conservative issues, but by running on behalf of the “PEOPLE’S INTEREST” (see her run for MAYOR, and her run for GOVERNOR).

This is plain simple reason and the REAL STORY behind the DIFFERENCE between PALIN vs. BACHMANN!

They both may share the same political philosophy, but that is where the meaningful comparisons stop.

BACHMANN is NO Palin by any stretch of the imagination!

“The Grand Bargain”? Oh, you mean when both the Dems and Reps each declare victory on the “debt crisis”, shake hands, hit the lobbyists up for mo’ money, and nothing really changes?

I really don’t get all of this handwringing.

If Bachmann is the GOP nominee then I will vote for her.

Ditto Palin.

I’ll only have to choose between the two if they are both on my GOP Primary ballot.

That is a long way from happening.

I think I’ll continue relaxing for a while.

I agree 100%, they’ve been treating her with kid gloves so far. if she were the nominee it’d be Katey bar the door time. Palin has already survived the onslaught and there’s nothing more they can do to harm her.

LOL. If thats true then why are some here constantly going on about how 'flakey' a candidate she is? Do they know something about her the media hasn't told them?

I treat "professional" movie critics the same way. Whatever they gush about, I avoid (a prime example of this is the movie "Brokeback Mountain"). They are part of the LSM, after all.

The principle you describe can be characterized by a well-known fictional person:

Any conservative who is the GOP nominee will be slimed with all of the commie slime in commieland.

To expect otherwise is to be a fool.

Yep. We have about 2% to 5% of the posters on FR who are chronic whiners. If you can't have perfection = their way, they'll take their marbles and go home.

Interestingly, that is about the same portion of the gays in the greater population of normal people who think marriage should be redefined to suit them.

The amount of vetting Palin and her family already experienced is a major plus for her as a candidate. It is hard to imagine that they could possibly come up with any surprise. Besides, anything they say would be easily dismissed since they have said so many totally ridiculous and untrue things about the Palins. We absolutely can’t have some “surprise” about a candidate.

When Sarah gets in it’s over for MB’s campaign.

I understand the frustration when the establishment tries giving us a John McCain or Jeb Bush, but I can’t comprehend throwing over a bona fide conservative, who for once appears to have a chance, for any reason.

Those DVD's were on the top of the $5 bin at Wal-Mart last time I was there. We had to move them out of the way to find anything decent.

I know real cowboys from Wyoming. To a man, they tell me that if they were forced at gunpoint to chose between boinking another man or a horse, they'd pick the horse.

Well you know...after what MB did to Sarah by way of Rollins, pretty unforgivable in my mind.

And she has no intention of apologizing, it would almost be to late now anyway?

Hey Even TPAW knew that an apology from his man the other day to MB was not enough...he to apologized for the remarks against MB. Webber comments against MB was not even in the same ball park as what Rollins said. Personally I believe MB gave the go ahead for Rollins to attack Palin

But Michele has never apologized! I believe she also needs to apologize to Palin supporters as well, but mainly to Gov Palin personally.

Not to mention remarks she made herself over the last couple months... I paraphrase from memory...Sarah Palin`s decisions have nothing to do with me,several occasions. Refused to answer a question from the Christian Post prior to MB announcing....If you should not run and Gov Palin chooses to run, would you be able to support a Palin candidacy?: Would not answer.

I think the PDS starts with some Palin supporters. They want her to run so badly but she hasn’t announced yet and it’s driving them nuts. So they take their frustration out on Michele Bachmann who has announced.
