This is a poorly veiled attempt to paint Palin as a follower.

Palin and Trump do not appeal to the same base at all. She appeals to those well informed on the issues and Trump quite the opposite, drawing from the uninformed.

Palin has all the answere and they are all posted and fully accessable.

You have nothing but your hopeless misery.

Anyone that deludes themselves into believing that Palin isn’t running is neither current, nor in possession of any wisdom.

A sandbag at the bottom of the pile on the Mississippi has more savvy than that.

"Democrats picked Clinton to play (act) as a serious president/leader on TV. And he hired Carville as attack dog. But they never said :”WE want Carville as president because he is good at throwing bombs”. Leading and blowing up things (the other side) are two different jobs. Bomb throwers wont make it to the WH anymore than Perot did."


This is a very good point. Too many on our side are choosing potential Presidential candidates based almost solely on their willingness to play the attack dog role. Such people are useful to the cause, but not as Presidential candidates.

That is a bit cryptic typing. So you are sure she is going to run 2012? She never mentions the possibility of running anymore so I dont define that as running. But you are sure this announcement is coming?

Well not serious ones anyways.

If attack dogs were the idea candidate then Howard 'Scream' Dean would have been perfect in 2004. But I bet the same Republicans that want a screamer as the candidate laughed like hell when Dean made a fool of himself.

I don’t pretend to know whether your ignorance of the legal realities of our election process is real, or feigned, but to give you the benefit of the slight doubt, she cannot do anything to overtly affirm the fact that she is running without losing the most important communication outlets that she has.

She will declare her candidacy at the appropriate time next year. To do sooner would mark her as too much of a fool to be worth voting for, no matter what “sicko-flibs” says.

I understand. Anyone who thinks she is not running is stupid but you wont say you are sure she will run. Makes perfect sense in La-La land.

Trump’s not just a stalking horse, he’s actively running through the Obama minefield, swinging a stick. His motives are really irrelevant. He’s doing a lot of the GOP’s dirty work for them, weakening Obama’s armor far in advance of the race.

I wish I could agree with you, but I worry about Trump’s motives. I am hoping it’s just that he loves the attention. But learning that he had met with Soros and some other power player some months ago has me worried.

Was he given the task of stirring people up so that they would defend Obama against some of Trump’s accusations? Was his job to make all of us who question any of the Pharoah’s background look like buffoons as he does?

Too many questions here for me....

You say anyone who thinks she wont run is stupid, yet you yourself won't say you are sure she will run . 2+2= ...

Who am I to defend you against yourself?

What is your game?

I’ve said unequivocally that Palin is running so many times, including the post to which you responded, that it must be physically etched into the hard drive, yet you cannot read simple english?

I’d suggest that you play marbles, if you had any.

That's good enough for me.
