Sarah Palin ,like Reagan, Loves America and would never try to tear Her down or appologize for this great country!
She under stands everyday hardworking Americans. Sarah is far better than the turncoat dufus who is squatting in the oval office “presently”!

About as much as your post did, in all fairness.
Reagan had his faults.
Two that come to mind was his failure to abolish the Dept.
of Education, and also amnesty for illegal immigrants Of course, no intelligent person would believe that Reagan would have signed off on amnesty if he had any idea the laws would be ignored.
OTOH, Palin is in favor of developing America's domestic resources in the Oil & Natural Gas areas. While here overall economic philosophy needs "fleshing-out", she beginning at a strong starting point. The Dems seem to think that you can run an expanding economy on windmills & solar cells.
Reagan started his first term as governor in '67 and then he ran for president in '68.
It was only because Reagan lost in '68 that he served two full terms.
And your above nonsense(LOL)appears in your very first sentence. Why on earth should anybody read passed it?
Frankly, I don't like people who quit in the middle of a fight.
>>>>>She didnt have a choice. Either finish out the term and dont run in 2012, or resign and run in 2012.
That's flat out wrong and you know it. Palin's term ended in December 2010! She had plenty of time to run for POTUS. In resigning, Palin has given her attackers in the liberal establishment even more ammunition to use against her, should she some back one day to run again. Nixon was politically dead in 1962 and President in 1969. Anything is possible, but her resignation doesn't help with Independents and the proverbial fence sitters. Which any presidential candidate needs to win. Sadly, in the short term, Palin has damaged her reputation by resigning.
...and went on to lose the nomination in 68 and 76.
If Reagan had quit the CA governorship after the 68 election you might have a point. But he didn't. He served two full terms before finally getting nominated.
Apparently it is to you, why all the demands on her? Why must she tell you what she is going to do? What do you care anyway, she can't win?
Good grief people get over yourselves, she is not Michael Jackson, she is a clever politician. We are not entitled to know what she plans, we may have a genuine interest, but we have no standing in her plans, until we are invited in.
While I would like those attributes in any candidate that I support, none of those traits tell me that she knows how to lead a country. However she would make a good minister of wife to a minister, if I could stand to listen to her rambling speech pattern.
Winner, winner.
I have been saying the same thing. Good post.
*********************
McCain was a terrible choice, no doubt about it. He did everything possible, other than his smart move in choosing Palin, to lose the election.
Still, the GOP establishment and McCain aren't solely responsible. Our nutty primary system, the MSM and a bunch of moronic voters all did their share.
Clever politican does not equal infallible. And Palin has made some blunders over the years, most notably agreeing to the Couric and Gibson interviews without setting reasonable ground rules such as requiring the interview be aired unedited.
Yes, she was damned if she stayed on and damned if she quit. So she made the morally correct choice.
“THERE WILL NEVER BE A CONSERVATIVE LOVED BY STATE RUN MEDIA.”
Not usually a fan of CAPS LOCK, but I agree...
These comments are posted all over the Palin threads, what they really mean is, Sarah is as dumb as a Rock, so why not just say it. </ Sarcasm>
Of all the facts you listed, only one, her being pro-life, had anything to do with policy.
Everything else was a personal characteritic of her's that you and others happen to like.
It's sad that the right is following the left and degenerating into a culture of personality cults.
My guess:
She will...
—Hit the stumps in 2010 campaigning for others
—Hit the speaking circuit
—Fine tune her policy message(s) during that time
—Build a large war chest during that time
—Run in 2012
We just elected a former community organizer to become president. How is she not qualified to move up to this office? I like Sarah Palin well enough, and would definitely vote for her if she were the GOP candidate. I'm not a smart enough guy to know if this latest move by her is a smart one, but we'll know in the next couple of years.
