You think and wish it were fear, as in they're afraid she is the only one who could unseat Obama. But that's exactly wrong: they think she's the one who Obama could beat. If there's fear -- and I think there is -- it's the fear of an incompetent being given great power. We already understand that fear, having felt the same way about Obama.
At the same time, Palin elicits a level of enthusiasm and "broken glass" support on the right that has rarely been seen in Republican politics.
Yes, among a certain segment. But it's not even most Republicans, much less the electorate at large.
If you simply look at these two factual circumstances long enough
That's just it: they're not "facts." They're just you, projecting your hopes onto Sarah Palin.
Do you have your logic circuits unplugged or something? Tell me why the leftstream MSM would spend two years denigrating someone who they feel is a weak laughingstock of little consequence?
Plug those circuits in before you answer.
...they think she's the one who Obama could beat.
If that's so, then why haven't they been able to take their eyes off of her since she lost the 2008 election?
Go on. Explain to me why the lib/Dem/MSM hasn't given Palin a moment's rest since 2008, and why they've devoted countless hours trying to convince America that she's an un-educated backwoods hick, who "can see Alaska from my house!"?
Use a bit of logic here, friend.
If the lib/Dem/RINO/MSM establishment really thought that Sarah Palin was the one to beat, they'd be singing her praises - not trying to kill her with a thousand cuts. They'd be giving her the softball routine and writing little puff pieces about her. Mostly, though, they'd be ignoring her.
If Sarah runs. She could raise enough money to stay in the raise and then show up in Tampa and sweep any needed delegates up off of their feet. There are not many figures in history who could generate that kind of passion.
so give her credit for being an important historical figure.
Will she be President ? Time will tell. Lets not forget that Richard Nixon was wrote off for dead in 62. Bill Clinton was boo’ed off stage at the 1988 Democratic Convention. people CAN comeback. and it CAN happen. not saying it will. but she can work hard and win
