Palin hints at Senate run in Alaska if Lisa Murkowski opposes Trump's Supreme Court nominee
Washington Examiner ^ | | September 26, 2020 | Andrew Mark Miller

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin hinted at a possible run for Lisa Murkowski's Senate seat if the senator doesn’t support President Trump’s replacement for Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the Supreme Court.

"We sure hope that you have it within you to do the right thing this time,” Palin said to Murkowski in a series of Instagram videos posted this week. “So, you should walk back. We'll forgive you. If you can't do that, remember my house? I can see a lot of things from my house. ... Lisa, I can see 2022 from my house."

"Lisa Murkowski, this is my house," Palin said, pointing to her Alaska residence in the background. "I'm willing to give it up for the greater good of this country ... if you can't find it within yourself to do the right thing this time and at least give a fair shake to the Supreme Court nominee that your president will be bringing before you.”

She has had a lot on her plate with a special needs child and dealing with the rest of her family over the past few years. Go Sara!

I pray along with you for Sarah Palin tonight while I’m already at prayer for the debates:

Lord Jesus:

I pray that every single lie told against Sarah Palin will be avenged by You, Holy God. You say that “Vengeance is mine, I shall repay” and You tell us not to seek vengeance but rather forgiveness for our enemies, and those who wickedly curse us... Lord for Sarah Palin and her family, I pray all the lies and liars would be revealed by the power of the Holy Spirit and that their true motives, as You revealed to the prophet Ezekiel in Ez. 9, would be shown for all to see, and for Sarah Palin to understand and be comforted. We pray for wisdom for her, and for ourselves, and for all elected officials and those in authority over us. Amen and Amen

We need fresh voices, not reruns.

Then find yourself a conservative eskimo to run......

If she does run, we can expect Cindy McCain to endorse Murkowski.

They weren't true, but as the elected official she was, she couldn't win in any court of law. Any judge would have thrown it out immediately. That's not true of the lawsuit she has against the NYT now. Which in a just world she woul win, but because of high bar of the libel laws, she probaably won't. But, as you may not have noticed, she didn't quit, she's taking the fight to them. And you ought to pray she wins, it would help us all if she did.

She may have not been right when she resigned, but she sure didn't act like a quitter when she left. She continued by trying to get behind, and support, conservatives who were running for office. Did it until around 2014 with a track record of over 80% winning when she endorsed them. She helped conservatives be proud to hold their views.

It's why Trump was so happy to get her endorsement. He knew her, befriended her, was influenced by her, and he was the first politician since she bowed out to make the kind of coalition she formed.

She was great. Trump before Trump. He borrowed from her a lot.

She burned out from the incredible politics of personal destruction from the left. In the end, it was too much to handle, as it would have been for 95+% of us. I count myself in that 95+%. You may be a good pilot, but you likely could not have handled what she did. Not for one week.

So let me suggest you not use the leftist slur invented for her. "Quitter". Brought to you by Barrack & company.

Trump took her place, and has taken the same kind of unrelenting flack. He is also a once in a lifetime person. I don't know of anybody else who could have handled what he does every day, every week, every month, and it's endless.

I really think you could show a little kindness to someone who carried, and forwarded the Tea Party torch so well, a real warrior who carries more battle scars than anyone other than Trump. Who forwarded conservative principles so well.

She paved the way for Trump. Let's see if she can claw her way back, and encourage her if she tries. She certainly doesn't deserve to be scoffed at and scorned with names made up by the left.

So, you can legally hound someone out of office with lies and false stories. Got it.

Yep. Particularly in Alaska. If you don't understand their peculiar laws, you'll never understand what happened to her. They would have been bankrupt, with no way to stay solvent in office.

Trump just used her trademark name for the media. Lamestream. And yes, she made that up after she left office.

You owe us a comment on what she did for us all AFTER she left office. If you can read that history I gave you, and understand how much we owe her, that might help you stop using the left's attempts to brand her.

Our posting on a message board means nothing compared to what she did.

Yep, she did.

What a horrible person to enjoy hunting at the same time she got a whole lot of great people elected; while she stood up for conservative principles, galvanizing a remnant, while few others did. She paved the way for Trump.

What a horrible quitter.....

She did that all while you were flying.

"She did that all while you were flying"

Keeping 200 people safely to many a landing; they going home to family and friends.

She kept the hopes of millions and millions of conservatives fixed on taking back our country. For years. Trump before he came down the escalator.

Yet you still can't say a kind word about her.

You might want to brush up on that spirit of thankfulness you're supposed to have before you post again........

I did not disparage her. I just said she was a quitter, not a fighter. Other than that I supported her when she was running with McCain.

And do not lecture me again.
