Is Sarah Palin Relevant?
CBN News' Brody File ^ | April 9, 2014 | David Brody, CBN News Chief Political Correspondent

Posted on 04/09/2014 12:59:04 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

The Brody File was watching Sarah Palin’s comedy bit on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon and it made me wonder the following: Is Sarah Palin relevant? The answer is a bit complicated. Is she taking seriously as a politician by the liberal mainstream media? No. But do they still pay attention to her every move? Yes they do.

Why is that? Yes, part of it has to do with the fact that there is a certain carnival atmosphere surrounding how she goes about her business. I mean, she knows how to command an audience and entertain. But let's not forget for a moment that she still has a robust, dedicated following. I'm not just talking about her millions of followers on Facebook and Twitter. I'm talking about how in certain congressional districts in this country, her word matters. An endorsement from Sarah Palin can make a difference for a candidate in a tight race.

Also, let's be totally truthful here. As much as the mainstream media can't stand her, they listen to what she says. She has a megaphone. Liberals might call that scary but Palin has the power to help shape the political conversation in America. And that's the dirty little secret liberals would rather not here. But it's truth. So, is Sarah Palin Relevant? “You betcha.”

Palin's word is gold. Sarah Palin will always be relevant, so many Americans see the same picture she sees and view the world in the same manner she does.

I just wish she hadn't resigned her governorship up here in Alaska; best & most effective Governor I've ever seem anywhere in my entire life.

Even if you wanted to donate to her mounting legal bills, it was ruled illegal to do so. Remember?

Why is that?

It is because she is FREE.

Not much left politically in America expect for my hero Sarah Palin. She is real and a hard core Constitutional conservative with the common sense of a real Patriot.

I haven’t seen anyone better to vote for even if I have to write her in.

A write in is a loss for the Republican candidate. Think! Don't start this crap.

Miss Romney yet. That loss got us a dictator King Obama and Obamacare. Romney did not support a Federal health care system and would have repealed Obamacare. Are you all happy now with what write ins get us?

You mean you were never around all those times when Romney said he would repeal and REPLACE Obamacare?

I’ll outbox you any day of the week. I read #23 and while I have nothing against that remark, it didn’t exactly match up with my idea of De Toqueville and Tom Jefferson. (Apologies to #23.)

You never know. Many of my conservative British friends on Facebook are dying for her to run again. She certainly has her supporters - internationally.

You clearly have no ability to think of Palin other than in terms of being a candidate for office……so you’re stuck in the box, and have no idea……and not sure what that’s got to do with ADT or TJ either…….

I can read what you wrote…..on the topic……if you wrote other than what you think, then that’s on you…….

You never did answer the relevance of ADT or TJ either…..

Since you are so intelligent and the rest of us are not, I thought you would understand sarcasm. I guess not...

The msm can’t believe Sarah keeps breaking out of the boxes the media tries to keep her in.

I swallowed my pride and voted for Romney and look what I got. At least I was not one of the millions that would not vote.
