Typical GOP performance standards, “We’re less worse than the Democrats”.

What’s next the Denney Hastert Weight Loss Show?
Hair Care Grooming With Trent Lott.
Huckabee Hospital Tour?
HW and GW Elocution Show and Better Living Through Debts( Replaces “How I Was A Doormat, And Liked It Show”.

If Palin was governor of any other state besides Alaska, I'd say she didn't really have a shot. Alaska IS unique and she has MORALS.

In 4 years, we WILL know Mr. Obama and the people will be crying for Capitalism and Morality.

Exactly...except I believe she is going to be the nominee...and the Liberals, Dems, marxists, and RINOs know it and fear it.

So they hate her and attack her for it...just like they did Clarence Thomas and reagan and any other threat to their desire for an absolute hammer-lock monopoly on this nation.

PALINN 2012!

Vice President Dick Cheney says he's confident Republicans will rebound from this year's election defeats. But he doesn't know if Sarah Palin will be the candidate to lead the comeback.

I was wondering four years ago who might Bush be preparing to replace him on the Republican ticket. Other than friendly meetings with the Clintons, and witfull suggestions that Hillary might next occupy the White House, there was no one in the "batter's box" for the Republicans.

I can tell you one thing; now I have someone in mind for the next presidential election, and that is Sarah Palin. Sure, there are or may be others, but she alone represents what I am looking for in terms of integrity, honesty, and support for the culture of life, and more...

We will be damn lucky if there IS a USA by 2012, and if there is, under czar Hussein, it may not look anything like the grand old 80s.

I agree she will have to earn it. After watching her campaign for VP i am sure she will out campaign everyone. So she is no lock but she has my vote.

Someone yesterday sited a video that I CAN NOT FIND that ask 12 questions of average people. They were just so uninformed and though Palin said things that Hillary or Obama said. It showed the power of the misleading press. Please, someone, send it to me. THANKS.

Also consider that the demographics will be in Obama’s favor. There will be less conservatives and more liberals eligible to vote in 2012. If Obama grants amnesty to illegals, it will be difficult for him to lose.

Of course he’s right. I dunno if Gov. Palin would want to get attacked by jackals again.

I don’t know if this is the report you’re referring to, but this one shows how uniformed Obama’s voters were.

Ignorance and the Media elected this President

Released: November 18, 2008

Zogby Poll: Almost No Obama Voters Ace Election Test

Survey finds most Obama voters remembered negative coverage of McCain/Palin statements but struggled to correctly answer questions about coverage associated with Obama/Biden

UTICA, New York — Just 2% of voters who supported Barack Obama on Election Day obtained perfect or near-perfect scores on a post election test which gauged their knowledge of statements and scandals associated with the presidential tickets during the campaign, a new Zogby International telephone poll shows.

Zogby Statement on Ziegler poll

Only 54% of Obama voters were able to answer at least half or more of the questions correctly.

The 12-question, multiple-choice survey found questions regarding statements linked to Republican presidential candidate John McCain and his vice-presidential running-mate Sarah Palin were far more likely to be answered correctly by Obama voters than questions about statements associated with Obama and Vice-President–Elect Joe Biden. The telephone survey of 512 Obama voters nationwide was conducted Nov. 13-15, 2008, and carries a margin of error of +/- 4.4 percentage points. The survey was commissioned by John Ziegler, author of The Death of Free Speech, producer of the recently released film “Blocking the Path to 9/11” and producer of the upcoming documentary film, Media Malpractice...How Obama Got Elected.

“After I interviewed Obama voters on Election Day for my documentary, I had a pretty low opinion of what most of them had picked up from the media coverage of the campaign, but this poll really proves beyond any doubt the stunning level of malpractice on the part of the media in not educating the Obama portion of the voting populace,” said Ziegler.

Ninety-four percent of Obama voters correctly identified Palin as the candidate with a pregnant teenage daughter, 86% correctly identified Palin as the candidate associated with a $150,000 wardrobe purchased by her political party, and 81% chose McCain as the candidate who was unable to identify the number of houses he owned. When asked which candidate said they could “see Russia from their house,” 87% chose Palin, although the quote actually is attributed to Saturday Night Live’s Tina Fey during her portrayal of Palin during the campaign. An answer of “none” or “Palin” was counted as a correct answer on the test, given that the statement was associated with a characterization of Palin.

Obama voters did not fare nearly as well overall when asked to answer questions about statements or stories associated with Obama or Biden — 83% failed to correctly answer that Obama had won his first election by getting all of his opponents removed from the ballot, and 88% did not correctly associate Obama with his statement that his energy policies would likely bankrupt the coal industry. Most (56%) were also not able to correctly answer that Obama started his political career at the home of two former members of the Weather Underground.

Nearly three quarters (72%) of Obama voters did not correctly identify Biden as the candidate who had to quit a previous campaign for President because he was found to have plagiarized a speech, and nearly half (47%) did not know that Biden was the one who predicted Obama would be tested by a generated international crisis during his first six months as President.

In addition to questions regarding statements and scandals associated with the campaigns, the 12-question, multiple-choice survey also included a question asking which political party controlled both houses of Congress leading up to the election — 57% of Obama voters were unable to correctly answer that Democrats controlled both the House and the Senate.
