Melas, I’m very sorry that you received the brunt of several misdirected posts in reply to my commentary.
Shes not stupid, though, and I think shed do better to shake her handlers loose and just talk directly to people. She has the charm to pull it off.
It's funny isn't it, because Bush went to Harvard AND Yale, and he might as well have not graduated 6th grade.
I think the less "intellectual accomplishments" one has:
1. the more I trust that person, at least as not being part of the establishment if not all together
2. the more common sense they seem to have.
3. the more in touch they are with average Americans.
“She still has quite a bit to prove with her being on the national scene for only a year”
She proved everything in her major speech during the campaign.
We really need to get better at sizing people up. How could any adult fail to see that Barry Soweto is a man of terribly bad character? Or that Mrs. Palin is his diametrical opposite?
“When I listen to her field questions from Couric and others, I am not impressed.”
She was muzzled by McLameBrain’s handlers. She has 60 IQ points on Couric, and 10,000 character points. After a fair debate, you’d be able to send what was left of Couric home in an envelope.
In honor of the corrupt Republican hierarchy, I will speak in French.
“my next republican vote will be Palin or it wont be republican. I will not settle for a Rino like Huck or Mitt. Done, voted for my last Rino”
Moi aussi.
Am retired from the legal field.
A dept. with over 130 white collars,
from Havard to you name it.
Some couldn’t tell you who bombed Pearl Harbor.
Lincoln wouldn’t make it today, poor guy with a few yrs. of formal education.
The uninformed type on FR would run him off.
“Sarah is not electable.”
Same crap they said about Reagan. And not since Reagan has the right had such a candidate.
Bears repeating.
When Progressives refer to the Constitution as a "Living Document", they are using a cynical euphemism for "Dead Letter".
And it is no coincidence that these Fabian Socilialists, calling themselves "Progressives", rely on Darwin to justify Marx.
Communism and Evolutionism spring from the same bitter well, and they are both false ideologies.
I know what you are saying, but there are people in Washington who have been on the national scene for decades and look how that has turned out.
Fresh faces anyone?
I agree. She is NOT the answer we need.I like her but she is not at the level she would need to be to have us regain the country back.
Damn intellectual accomplishments anyway. Who needs people who think?
Remember the last PRIMARY? RINO’s that real conservatives won’t vote for, breaking the vote up enough for the Royal RINO of them all. My money says the average conservative turns 3rd party if we get stuck with Mitt or Huck.
I’m quite sure this is the republican parties last chance. If I’m going to lose in the future, it will be voting for someone I believe in, I will never vote for another RINO. My vote is to precious to me. I’m ashamed to admit that I voted for McCain. Of course I didn’t actually vote FOR HIM.
I see where we differ. Speeches prove absolutely nothing to me. There are plenty of washed up Hollywood actors and wannabe starlets with enough talent to wow you with a speech provide someone with actual brain cells wrote it for them.
I agree as well. Putting her up the next time around will be a wasted opportunity.We would need almost an historic figure to ever get back the USA from the hands of the Marxist Left.
What are you trying to say Sarah is a liberal? Man that's so weak it's almost comical. Talk about PDS. You go ahead and post this nonsense for the next two years and when I find out who your candidate is they'll be on my ____ list. Pitiful argument.
“Speeches prove absolutely nothing to me. There are plenty of washed up Hollywood actors and wannabe starlets with enough talent to wow you with a speech provide someone with actual brain cells wrote it for them.”
Perhaps if more people worked on learning to tell the difference between greatness and “washed up Hollywood actors and wannabe starlets,” they wouldn’t have to reject the former out of fear of the latter.
“Im quite sure this is the Republican Party’s last chance.”
Which may be for the best. Perhaps an effective opposition can only arise from the ashes of the corrupt.
Oh yeah? Throw out some names.
What a lie...
I think Palin would be a very weak candidate for president.
