Allen West is, but he’s not running.

Huntsman was a mediocre Governor at best, and personally I feel he was a nightmare. He’s a “Greenie” AGW proponent and did some stupid things as governor.

And you’re right. China is licking it’s its chops and biding it’s time. Anyone with eyes can see it, but no one wants to offend them. Like all liberals, they’ll be offended anyway, so, really, why bother trying to pussy foot around?

Grunthor,

I have no problem with you having 3 candidates your looking at and I don’t even care if one were Obama because that is your undeniable privledge as an American.

That said, I do have a problem with your “numbers game”, as expressed in your post, to wit;.....I basically am only interested in “1” candidate, Sarah Palin,..............you are interested in “3”..........so, according to you, this makes you a “mature intellectual” and me, and people like me, “dumbasses” (or, as you put it....”doubtful in maturity and intellect”.

Is your name Axelrod, Pelosi, Reid, Frank or Schumer? I say this only to make the point that people like them very publicly and almost daily are, like you, insulting the intellect and maturity of those that dare to support other candidates. And, in the case of Sarah Palin, their kids, grandkids, accent, voice tone, clothing, alma mater etc; etc;

I’ve been unemployed for a long time, but the minute she announces, there will be at least $100.00 heading her way. If all 3.4 million friends on facebook did the same, it wuld be awesome!

Well said. Strategically speaking Santorum as a VP with Perry would carry PA.I think we have Ohio,NC,Florida if we snatch PA Obama is toast. Just sayin... as everyone always discounts Santorum. But we do not know if Obama will have moveon.org stealing votes or not. Obama won in military towns that NEVER go to a dem so he cheated like hell.

Mrs. Palin is remaining quiet....she is waiting....she knows her battle plan....she knows her timing.....she is learning....studying the opposition....guarding the "cubs"....waiting quietly with an occasional "roar" (like the comments at the Iowa State Fair).....reconnoitering the challengers from within and the enemY from without.....studying weaknesses....building and conserving her strength....endlessly practicing....reading...honing her skills.....waiting.....waiting.....

This war has not yet begun. What has been seen of the other candidates to date has been nothing but minor and irrelevant skirmishing.

It is a very very long way to next November. There is no need to rush. In her mind's eye, Mrs. Palin smiles knowingly and remembers the words of Napolean, "Never interupt your enemy when he is making a mistake." and General Patton, "Our basic plan of operation is to advance and to keep on advancing regardless of whether we have to go over, under, or through the enemy. We are going to go through him like crap through a goose; like shit through a tin horn!"

Patience.....patience....

Wait for it!

And keep the faith....

BTTT! Sarah Palin is our home grown, God loving, all American patriot. The lamestream and democrats recognized that she was genuine right away, which is why they set out to destroy her. She was not to be the first woman POTUS. Too bad, for those haters and Marxists. With our prayers, money, and hard work, we will see to her election.
Thanks very muich, tomkat!
May God bless and keep you and yours, right along with Sarah Palin, her precious family and all of her supporters.

Well IF Sarah does not run I think conservatives ought to start calling on Governor Scott Walker of WI. He withstood and stood against these raging leftist heathen as good as any one in my recent memory.

While I wholeheartedly support your contention....please wait a bit.

Our incredible Governor Walker still has work to do here in WI!!!

But would he fit as Mrs. Palin's choice for a VP????

Would he ever!

PALIN/WALKER - 2012

Just trying it out to see how it feels.

Fits like a glove, it do!

For two years I’ve been reading posts by otherwise good conseratives who say, stuff like: I hope she doesn’t run, she’s not going to run, she’s just in it for the money, she’s not running, I’d vote for her but her voice grates, I like her but...etc. ad nauseum and trying to figure out why.

I’ve come the the conclusion that Governor Palin has come to personify the common sense conservative viewpoint and the normal family of the non-political class with the Mr. Smith Goes to Washington theme, so completely that there are just a lot of conservatives are terrified to put this all to the test of a national referendum in the fear that the American Experiment will lose the vote.

The Palin strategy is absolutely brilliant. She is able to command a lot of attention while she “sits on the fence”.

And because of her strong name recognition, grassroots support she has the luxury of being able to wait for all the other contenders to announce and to get bloodied in the political arena.

And while there are reasons to like Bachmann, Cain & Perry, none of them have the ‘star power’ or ability to get their message out directly to the people the way that Sarah does.

“I doubt the maturity and the intellectual capacity of anyone that latches on to one (non)candidate this early in the process and claims that no other will do” It must get lonely up in your ivory tower looking down on all of us inferior beings who happen to believe in Sara Palin.Be careful you may get permanently cross eyed looking down your nose.If she decides not to run then we have a large field from which to choose.Having said that,if she decides not to run then I will get back to you and YOU can tell me whom I’m to support.sheesh.

It would be a disaster if she ran. She ended her career when she resigned as Gov.

..after seeing her on Hannity yesterday at the Iowa State Fair, there’s no doubt in my mind about her plans—the only question is when she will announce...

Great shot of Palin with Hannity on stage there at the fair....and look at the huge crowd. It’s Palins “Normal”. Imagine the thunder when she declares! Allot of people will sport happy faces no doubt!

Does it matter if we win this election?
