LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. — Sarah Palin told Republican donors Thursday that Occupy Wall Street protesters want the same thing as the “fat cats” they’re upset with — a government bailout.

Palin criticized the protesters as believing they’re entitled to other people’s productivity and money and said they’ve drawn the wrong conclusions. Instead, the former Alaska governor said people should look to the tea party....

This is the kind of work that then former Governor Ronald Reagan was doing between 1975 and 1979, if you ask me.

[Kolath]

Hat tip to Palin.

[free me]

She is spot on as usual.

[ken21]

bump.

[exit82]

America’s Esther.

Yes, I miss her yet.

[NoLibZone]

Its all about getting stuff.

They don’t want to have to work for decades to have what a 60 year old has.

It’s not a march against Greed.

It’s a march for greed.

It’s this nations weakest generation.

Generation W.

I don’t blame her for not running but she is my dream CIC.

[CitizenUSA]

In before the stupid comments about, “Palin who?” Even though she takes a lot of flak, I still think she’s a conservative force for good. In other words, she’s a FReeper ally and deserves to be treated as one.

[CitizenUSA]

libbylu: “I don’t blame her for not running but she is my dream CIC.”

She says she prayed a lot about the decision. I can’t fault that. Somehow I think God is going to let America from its mistakes. In other words, we don’t deserve moral leaders, like Governor Palin, because we’re an immoral nation. Until we reap the whirlwind, how will we learn?

[sargon]

Where are the actual GOP candidates on this issue?

Silent, for the most part. Afraid of their own shadows.

To be fair, I think Cain has commented thereon.

Once again, thanks for the rhetorical leadership, Sarah Palin.

Something tells me we haven't heard the last of her for this election season.

[excopconservative]

This was a speech to Republicans and it strangely did not include any references to the Republican field of candidates. Nothing about “the wonderful field” or “any one of them will beat Obama”. She talked about her ideas. There was nothing in the speech that could cause her any difficulty if she announced next week, that she had changed her assessment and would be running. This makes me think that the rumors that she is reconsidering could be true.

Because the February primaries all moved up to January, she could enter the race by Nov. 15th and still get in all of the primaries from Feb 28th on. She could compete in all of the caucuses as they have no filing dates. She would miss NH, FL, and SC but she would not have won NH anyway and FL may lose half of its delegates for moving up its primary.

A strategy might be to win the Iowa caucus, then take on Romney in his home state of MI on Feb 28th. If she were to win IA, MI and AZ also on the 28th, it could put Romney away. Wouldn’t we like to see that? If so tell her by dropping a card or letter to:

Great minds think alike.

Sarah Palin's New Ping List

[sten]

she doesn’t have to announce for quite a while...

if she doesn’t work with the GOP

[Art in Idaho]

Patented Palin - down-to-earth and common-sense plain talk that's right on the mark. She's slowed down her delivery some - which is good. No mention of the candidates but many hits on Obama.

Another speech that shows why she is the front runner - running or not.

[AmericanInTokyo]

Now she needs to slam POLITICO.

[AmericanInTokyo]

One fine lady and patriot to boot.

[b9]

Gosh, thanks so much for this ping.

So good to hear from Sarah.

Love her praise of Florida and its governor.

In other words, we don’t deserve moral leaders, like Governor Palin, because we’re an immoral nation. Until we reap the whirlwind, how will we learn?

Most likely scenario:
She will run in 2016. Mitt Romney will win the Republican nomination in 2012 but because he is a fatally flawed flip-flopper enough conservatives will leave the lever at the top of the ticket un-pulled. Obama will win re-election leaving the GOP spot open for 2016 but with a Republican House and Senate that will stop more of his socialist programs. When 2016 comes around and even the most fervent Obama supporters see the mess Obamacare has wrought together with unemployment at 10+% and debt in the tens of trillions, the stage will be set from Sarah to grab the nomination and win.

Weird you say that because that's exactly what I think but don't really dare to say it. Sarah was dying to run. She WAS running but then she felt God did not tell her to do so. She must have been devastated but she followed God's advice. And my thoughts are that God just don't think we deserve to be saved anymore. Sodom and Gomorrah. God would have good reasons to think that...so soo sad.
