Palin Backers Use Film to Spread Message Ahead of Iowa Speech

*snup*

Members of the newly formed Tea Party group, which will host the former Alaska governor at a rally in Iowa on Saturday, have made clear that they have no special insight into Palin’s presidential intentions.

*snip*

Ladd Ventling, who serves as a county coordinator for the Iowa branch of Organize4Palin, told RCP that he spoke privately with Todd Palin for over 20 minutes about the volunteer group’s efforts during the visit by Alaska’s former First Couple to the Iowa State Fair earlier this month.

Ventling said that while Todd Palin did not say his wife planned to announce her candidacy, the Webster City, Iowa, native came away from the conversation convinced that she does indeed intend to get in.

Todd Palin is the man that Rick Perry wishes he could manage just to PRETEND to be.

Where's Perry's wife, anyway?

Cheers!

This will be Sarah Palin’s central issue when she runs for president:

“You had a corrupt political class in cahoots with big oil. The central issue now is crony capitalism with this collusion of big business, big government, and big finance taking care of themselves to the detriment of the middle class.”

Good issue that goes to the core of what has turned our government into a corrupt cesspool.

I am looking forward to a president who will take us in a new direction away from the usual politics of leftist Dems and RINO Republicans.

President Sarah Palin.

Love this line of yours!
*Todd Palin is the man that Rick Perry wishes he could manage just to PRETEND to be.*

Since you’re from Minnesota, maybe you’ll appreciate this adventure these two little girls (ages 6 & 7) had last Saturday.

One might ask if she is to be a "non" candidate, why she would use this video to go full throttle mano-e-mano against the anointed one in the arena of ideas, specifically going after him as being a liar ?

It is from his lies we get to juxtapose the hope of Obama vs. the reality of how he governed, i.e crony capitalism, he didn't drain the swamp in DC, he added more effluent to the water, and the bacteria is growing faster...

If so she will run as a reformer, her vs. the DNC and the RNC just like she did in Alaska....

I think Rick Perry is perfectly happy being just who he is and wastes exactly zero time wishing he were Todd Palin. After all, he’s governor, hasn’t quit his job, and isn’t merely second fiddle to his wife.

His wife is beautiful and accomplished.

Actually I find Todd Palin creepy.

Palin Backers Use Film to Spread Message Ahead of Iowa Speech

I.e., self-serving propaganda served up in a manner that guarantees that the audience must sit passively and receive the message rather than being able to actively question it. That's something that smacks of liberalism and Big Brother.

Starwise...

I don't get the whole twitter thing, I can't see how or why anyone whould want to see my 140 words, but Sarah sees something I don't, so lets run with it...

One of the tweets was that Steve Forbes believes she will run...

I really like Steve and still have a Forbes for President Bumper Sticker unpeeled in my garage...

She has built a team in DC but I wonder where else of advisers and gnomes to make her sharper.

I wonder if Steve is on the team or on the edges of it and knows those that are....

For that reason I find that tweet real interesting....

You fail to consider reality.

The reality is that most Americans desire a passive message format where information is input visually. The audio is heard but the video is remembered.

A campaign (if there really is one ) is all about delivering a message....... vote for me.

Your charge is as bogus as the one calling Perry a Rino

You would be describing me as I watched the film. The first part championed Palin going after corrupt Republicans in Alaska. This is a good thing and I applaud her for what she did BUT as I watched it, I wondered why they singled out corrupt Republicans. Do they not have corrupt Democrats in Alaska?

Then after several of these "enhancer" scenes that had nothing to do with the film, such as a man with a knife behind his back, another man with a gun behind his back, a man with an arrow through his neck, a car wreck and some other scenes I don't recall, I wondered why they thought they had to play with my mind.

BUT the real kicker came at the end when Brietbart and Levin spent many minutes blasting REPUBLICANS again. They showed photos of McConnell, Boehner and Cantor and inferred they also are corrupt and unethical.

The film portrayed Palin as being perfection while the rest of the Republican party is corrupt and unethical.

Sure people in the Republican party have warts but to portray all the corruption as being Republicans while ignoring the total depravity of Democrats, was an afront to me and I wondered exactly what was the agenda of Bannon and Palin.
