As I said, Sarah has shown incredible courage. Not too many people understand how bad it can be to be under the assault she has endured. She and her family are amazing.
Whatever she chooses, I will support her.
I was not attacking you BTW! I am bent on the subject of polling, political polling. I have preached about it for a decade, I am on record of it here prior to even hearing of the name Sarah Palin.
Just something I feel strongly about, not asking you to agree.
I simply do not believe in the “science” of political polling, and like I said am on record here with this view pre Palin
I`m in
It was enough that I took great issue with it. I am not about to rummage through your posting history, mind you it`s all there.
I copied and pasted the comments to the other Sarah Baracuda, and that is how we determined it was you.
But lets leave it alone...All will be well when you endorse Gov Palin sometime in the next month or so, perhaps sooner.
We will put it down as temp insanity :)
Perhaps there are 3 Sarah Barracudas, I think that was what we discovered with different spellings? But would there be more than 1 Sarabaracuda that supported Perry over Palin? Doubtful, but possible
Peace
I thought the television series she hosted was about Alaska and was done in a documentary/educational format.
Yep that would be be. I am the original Sarah Barracuda :-) and yes I absolutely agree, if Sarah runs she will WIN!! The Fox News poll is LAUGHABLE..Sarah made the mistake of thinking that Fox News would be in her corner, an ally, they have NEVER been in her corner, other then Hannity and Greta, the rest of them are Romney bots..ever since Sarah stood up for herself against that buffoon Bill O’Reilly Fox News has had a huge vendetta against her
“It ain’t over until its over.” Nov 6 2012 is over a year away, a lot more can happen. Not that concerned about these polls, especially when I see low scores for Palin. I feel there is energy there just waiting to explode. Palin = Fire, Perry = Blaaah.
That 1/2 term gov/reality tv star, as you put it drew a larger TV audience during her VP nominee convention speech than either Presidential candidate. When in history has that ever happen or ever will again? She has a drawing power like never seen in modern American politics. Allot of powerful people have gone to the political graveyard by underestimating Sarah Palin.
Well said! Also Fox polling was in question back as far as 2004. I question all the polling, All the pollsters. The “science” of political polling is dead, they ALL have an agenda.
The pollsters personal likes and dislikes should have nothing whatsoever to do with their polling. They only manufacture opinion, that`s it!
Anyway it`s what I believe. People say to me, I only dislike polls that show Sarah not doing well, but I tell them I have held these views on polling before I ever heard of Gov Palin.
Oh yes, having Kate Plus 8 whining about everything was really educational. There were some good things because it’s Alaska but it was reality tv just the same.
For us Sarah Palin supporters there is one thing that trumps polling, that is money!
Once Sarah announces her run, it`s up to us to break records for her with money raised. If she breaks records raising money, and the polls do not match it....
I rest my case :)
“I’d like her to pick Bolton as VP...”
Nah..He should be Secretary of State, where he can actually do some good.
Not sure why so many Freepers keep getting their panties in a bunch over weather She is In or Out. It’s early in the game, and if she jumps in, all the better for our side, and if she doesn’t then Perry can count on her endorsement if he is the nominee. Whay a key note speaker at his convention she would be. Or the other way around.
I think everyone needs to chill out. Where are the optimist in our Party today? I’m sick of the infighting between people who have their favorites, and are too eager to help the left wing media destroy the competition. We should be glad of the candidates we have and those that may still jump in.
Go back to last year at this time when it looked like the field was going to be the same names as 2008 minus Fred Thompson and McCain. The names popping up then were Huntsman, Huckabee, Romney, Rudy, and Ron Paul. The ones we were hoping for like Bobby Jindal and Haley Barbour among others, were stating they will not run. At the time It looked very dismal and the talk on FR was depressing. It was nothing but RINOs on the list, and those who had zero chance of a nomination.
Move forward one year and we could soon have a debate stage field with people like, Palin, Bachmann, Perry, and Cain, and one or two more good names that are still possibilities. That would be a dream come true, if you were to ask us a year ago.
That was before the drama that is the Palins was unleashed on us all. She’s been over exposed since the nomination speech.
This isn’t Alaska where there are only 493,417 registered voters.
Fox News has an agenda, has been that way for about a year now, discredit Sarah Palin..I dont know if it started with Bill O’Reilly because he got his pretty little feelings hurt when Sarah smacked him down and refused to take his BS anymore or what happened but Roger Ailes is NO ally of hers. He thought he was going to have a puppet in Sarah Palin, that didn’t happen..he should have known by now that NO ONE tells Sarah Palin what to do, she is her own person, she does things her way. I have seen numerous polls from newsmax and others that have shown her to have overwhelming supports amongst those in the GOP..I call BS on any poll that shows she doesn’t have support from tea party members. Watch that rally on Saturday, when Sarah speaks, when her name is announced, you see the reaction from the crowd, that reaction will tell you more then any bogus poll ever could
“She’s not. Sarah will endorse Rick. Unfortunately, the drive-by media has accomplished their mission to deflate Sarah’s support and are now attempting to do the same thing to Rick. Mittens is loving every minute of it.”
________________________________________________
Ummm, care to give some examples of her support being deflated?
Oh wait...I know, you just forgot to use your “/sarc.” There’s no way you can seriously believe what you wrote.
I think Sarah Palin will run. However, I also think that she’ll lose the nomination, either to Rick Perry or to Mitt Romeny (if her potential voters split the conservative votes). I’m hoping it’s to Rick Perry. There are many people who like Palin, but some of these same people are also considering Perry as the safer choice between the two. Like it or not, Sarah Palin has perception issue, that is, most people have heard about her, but her negative ratings are quite high. That’s of course, the results of MSM’s constant beating. Still, such perception is already there. Now that Perry is running, many conservatives or conservative-leaning voters see a safer alternative on him.
Did they ask if anybody else should ‘stay out of the race’ or was the question only asked about Palin. This is so transparently a ‘push ‘poll’ designed to deter Palin from entering.
