I believe Sarah Palin can make loads more money and without all the DOUBLED attacks and barbs from the media/Axelrod’s thugs

She does not have the stress now and the percentages of Newt winning against Hussein Junior with her on the ticket is dismal

Everything to lose and nothing to gain

When you have a good hand you don’t play against a stacked deck

They showed Obama’s final shot only on TV here - they MENTIONED his practice warmup shots

You count and recount the votes until you come out on top - Then you quit

14.2% from the 3-point area of the court is a joke

Sarah Palin made the foul shot that won the Alaska State High School Girl’s Championship for Wasili

You cannot even find the stats for the points scored by Obama and time played in each game - or for the total points he scored in a whole season

He claims “I was on the State Championship Team!”

But no action photos at all - no numbers - no stats

Now some of the hs bb players have come forward and have said he was a joke on the court - and he would get angry and stomp off the court
Any hs annual gives the info of stats and such - local newspapers would have stats in the archives

- But nothing - nothing has seen the light of day - except some still photos of him sitting in the stands in a posed photo with other players

I can produce hs annuals and info from my hs right now

Why doesn’t Hussein Junior show us what a superstar he was in hs bb

Notice he never mentions college bb

Not even practicing with the team

So......

She’s already made millions and will make two more in the next two years at Fox News. I don’t know what ‘good hand’ she has now, no one I know would watch a movie made for her! She doesn’t speak as well as Bachmann. People were just in love with her good looks, most all of the men still are.

She made a lucky shot devolve, that’s sports. She’s not superwoman, lol.

I’m sorry, these aren’t my favorite topics.....

I shot over 85% from there

No luck was involved

Practice, Accuracy, Practice

If Sarah went for VP - another loss would cook her future

Staffs and former collegues have said chubby did not play well with fellow Republicans

Why do they say that?

If he is so smart, has all the SOLUTIONS, co-writes, co-edits, is so likeable - but wants all the credit

Why is he not the runaway #1 now?

No matter how good, there is always luck involved in sports. Practice makes nobody ‘perfect’.

Palin would do best to wait for an appointed office. As you say, another loss wouldn’t be good.
Newt has the ‘gift of gab’, certainly not the looks.

A few weeks ago Rush played a clip of Newt

After the clip - Rush said: “You should have stopped talking after the first sentence - which was great....”

Some just do not know when to stop painting

Voters fell for the short words

Voters are turned off by condescending blather and endless BIG SOLUTIONS

Reagan talked of a shining city on a hill

Not the valley, the river, the caves, the trees, the animals - and what GOVERNMENT must do to improve them

Gilding the lily will not cut in when the voters will vote a just a few short seconds:

“Now.... What did he say.... And what did it mean anyway?”

The thing is, people listen to ‘good talkers’, eventually they may realize they’re ‘full-a-bull’ half the time. I read earlier that Newt tends to wander off into long speeches on history.

Bill Clinton is another one who can talk a blue streak. There’s a certain charm to it until you ‘find them out’, lol.

Yup

There is a reason many Congressmen never run/ran for the Senate

The voters never know what the others in Congress think of a former Congressman - Until they see the tracks ahead lead over a cliff

See the “I did not know” thread and comments

I knew - I had posted it on FR

You follow the politics more closely than I do. I read a LOT but mostly go by facts and instinct. I support Perry because I like him and know Texas has thrived. But I can recognize his minor flaws and I do not fall in love with him, lol.

Debating has little to do with running a state or a country

Perry has been in the military, in business, and in politics

Reagan lost his first debate against Jimmy Carter

Reagan lost out to Ford 4 years before that

The vast majority of those who will decide the general election have very little comprehension of what their candidate is or will do
Carter was elected

Carter was ahead until the last few weeks for reelection

Obama was elected

Obama is still golfing and blowing smoke and now the democrats fully own the media

“We did not know....” (Who is “We”)

“I did no know....” (Why is your name on the jacket of 33 (or so) books you claim “I wrote”?

“I did not know....” will not cut it when Pearl Harbor II hits America -

“I did not know....” will not cut it when you sit your butt down on a sofa as the cameras run -

“I matured....” “But all others Flip-Flop!” will not cut it

Sometimes gray or white hair just means your older - not more mature - or more honest -

Will the real wife #1 please stand up please?

Will the real wife #2 please stand up please?

Look for that in a TV ad if......

But I use facts or statements by others

If then a leftie or a sleeper does not accept it - I just disregard them

Lefties finally say things like “But that is not the way (the US Constitution) it should be”

- or “there should be a limit on how much a corporate officer can make”

- and - of course - they will select who will dictate how much someone can earn

- except for all the leftie celebrities like Umpah and Lady Gag-Gag and...

Erik my man, you win the award today for the post that attracted the most drive by un-informed missed the whole context of the damned article comments.

Of course, that was not my intent. However, it is entertaining to watch the convolutions, distortions and contortions performed by some in favor/opposition to another candidate.

PS: Those creating the statements of absolutes will provide future entertainment as well!
