Yeah Karl. Ya know who had a REALLY thick skin? George W Bush.

His skin was so thick he allowed the crooked liberal media to make up outright lies and repeat them so often -- without protest or rebuttal -- that the American people let those lies harden into "fact". Which destroyed his Presidency and paved the way for Obama.

IMHO, Sarah's skin is about PERFECT.

Brilliant retort!

“Trivial nonsense.”

Agree. I believe he’s deliberately picking a fight.

Take a look at the quote from Karl at the top of this post.
He shrewdly said, “Instead every time she pops up like she did on CNN.........”.
This is a shot at FOX and her FOX contract, which will be the first thing to go before she can declare for a presidential campaign. That would be her kick off.
Karl does two things here. He reminds FOX that her contract forbids interviews with other networks or cable channels, and he brings to the viewers mind that since she is under contract with FOX, she is still telling them that she is not running, and they must believe her.
I just thought it interesting how Rove circled her contractual relationship with FOX.

>>> I think it makes Sarah more popular that this ass clown is hated on BOTH sides of the isle

Two years of polling and a failed movie have shown consistently that nothing makes Sarah particularly popular, or taken seriously outside a small niche.

Rove didn’t say anything many here on FR weren’t saying. Many thought the Sept 3 “announcement” was going to be something significant, instead of just another empty tease. So Rove, and Palin supporters on FR were both wrong. Big deal.

Actually 2 years of polling has consistently shown Governor Palin in the top tier of 2012 candidates, in fact normally, she has been bouncing between first and second with Romney.

Palin is definitely in the top three, even after this latest Perry entrance, as Gallup shows.

"Look, she is all upset about this saying how I am trying to sabatouge her in some way. How do I speculate on her future."

He is sounding like a whiney teenage girl in a 70's sicom.

Next thing he will say is "Marsha, Marsha, Marsha".....

Man I think this guy has issues...

Poppin’ Fresh knows that if Sarah comes to Washington with a wave of conservative candidates; his career is toast.

STFU Karl, You don’t have kids that get attacked daily by the msm. Even a DS child.

Tell the msm to knock it off. Your priorities are all screwed up.

Yup, I do think she swings downward. Do you think Maher IS NOT beneath her?

Oh, and his T-insult was directed at Palin herself.

Touche’. I am not a supporter of anyone at this time (I do think it is DU tacky and hypocritical of the Palin ping list gang; to attack Bachmann) If Rove said this about Bachmann the same backyard gang ping list would be in favor of Rove. This entire thing highlights the split that the Obama campaign loves.Divide and they will try to conquer and hope the tea party and GOP split.

That is exactly what I thought. No time to counter attack.
He hates that Sarah Palin is beating him at his game. Cause this game is all he has. I think this prediction is his last chance at relevance.
