At least some GOP operatives are waking up and smelling the 2012 coffee. As I've said before, she'll get my help (and $2 million in bundled funds) from me if she runs.

Just give ‘er some time. The current POTUS sure didn't need much experience to get the job, eh? She actually has more experience than he had and everyone is finding out that the supposed “gravitas” he had was just being able to read speeches well. So what that she has a few words on her hand? He can't utter a complete sentence unless it's written out on the teleprompter.

“Can Sarah Palin translate celebrity into real political power?”

Is this a sad attempt at satire?

Sarahcuda successfully ran against Republican incumbent Governor, put corrupt Alaskan State pols in jail, backed down three Big Oil Corporations, brought biggest gas pipeline project to fruition, governed Alaska with an 80% approval rating, and then question: "Does she have political power?
It has to be satire or criminal stupidity!

"A new Washington Post-ABC News poll found that 71 percent of Americans do not think the politician who was Sen. John McCain's running mate in 2008 is qualified to be president."

This isn't actually a serious question. With one single Facebook posting using the phrase "Death Panels" this unemployed housewife turned the national debate over health care in her own direction. Like her or hate her, that's real political power, and only a fool would suggest otherwise.

Still, GOP strategist Phil Musser said, “if she ran for president today, she would be the Republican nominee.”

Mr Musser is a smart fellow.

But the others should be paying close attention, Castellanos said. “Mitt Romney, Pawlenty and every other Republican contender ought to be worried,” he said. “An authentic, populist voice has emerged as the anti-Obama and that voice doesn’t belong to the Republican establishment. It belongs to Sarah Palin.”

Expanded political team

She already has. What a ridiculouos dufus! The brain of the author of this inanity operates at about the same speed as the moron who became wealthy for penning a song which started with the line, "I believe our children are the future..."

NO! No you don't. Not really you don't! Really...?

I suppose even the dullest of minds has a genius for belaboring the obvious. Truly impressive.

Her ability to “draw a crowd” was clear over a year ago. What has happened since that time is more significant, even though the media and Palin-haters will do anything to diminish it’s importance.

She has become the most likely focal point for the unprecedented wave of anti-government populism that is sweeping the nation. Whether you agree with her on every point is immaterial - many people did not agree with every thing Barack Obama said either, but they identified with him as the focal point of their frustration with Bush, and desire for change. The pendulum will have swung far to the right by 2012, as global forces will keep the economy as the central issue. Obama is proving that he is totally ineffective in addressing this overarching problem, and Sarah Palin’s common-sense conservativism will be just what voters will be hungry for.

Yeah. I trust the Washington Post and ABC News to conduct an objective poll on Sarah Palin.

Another hit piece from the Gay Brigades.

Palin would win today, if the election were held today.

The media is trying push polling, party splitting, and lying forty ways from Sunday to reduce the existing support for Sarah Palin.

They are flooding Free Republic and every other internet forum with plants to seed their back-handed compliments, followed by "I just don't think she can win."

The truth is that she is already winning, and by a wide margin.

For another year we’ll hear from the media all kinds of gloom and doom polls and forecasts for our candidates, the purpose for which is to discourage them from running. Then for another year or so, we’ll hear stories whose aim is to tell us who to choose as our candidate. Then another period of articles saying the one we chose can’t possibly win so we might as well stay home and not vote.

Letting the media and the party politicos make these decisions hasn’t worked out so well for us in the past. We should do something different this time, like ignore them and select the best person whose head is on straight.

What kind of power? Like making the President back off his policies by Tweeting?

I like the libbers trying to get Sarah Palin to make speeches that solve all the problems Obama has caused. When she doesn't they call her names.
