Governor Palin and the Tea Party movement

Former Governor Sarah Palin is once again crisscrossing America, this time to promote her new book "Going Rogue: An American Life." Judging by the huge crowds lining up at the book stores for a chance to meet her, she is fast becoming a political rock star. As the debates on the economy, jobs, health care reform, government spending, terrorist trials, and the Afghan War heat up-and the President's poll numbers head south-her timing couldn't be better.

Not everyone, however, is happy to see her take center stage once again. Many liberals and left wing media pundits have been downright apoplectic about her return, and have proceeded to demonize her the same way they demonized the Tea Party protesters. That is why Governor Palin is rapidly gaining traction with the Tea Party movement. They both are learning with media persecution comes growing popularity among voters.

Common cause dictates that Governor Palin and the Tea Party movement join forces before the 2010 elections, becoming one of the most formidable and potent political forces in American politics to date. When that happens, she will most certainly be the Republican nominee in 2012. As the Obama administration starts to wear thin over time with more and more Americans, what's not so certain is who will be the Democratic nominee for 2012. The rumblings in Democratic circles will only grow louder after the 2010 mid-term elections-destined to be known as the Republican "landslide" of 2010.

They wouldn't dare kick Dear Leader off the ticket in 2012, that'd be racist! LOL

To tell you the truth, I wonder about that.

From surfing the lefty websites I can tell you that the hardcore types are mad at him for not going far enough and the rest are getting as frightened and angry about the black hole he’s leading us into as more and more of them realize they are not recession-proof either and they will suffer as much as the people they love to hate in the coming Dark Ages.

Remember how the “liberal” media turned on Jimmah and even fellow democrats were mocking and bashing him after four years of economic turmoil and humiliation overseas.

If the Hill goes Republican next year we just might see the fastest impeachment in our nation’s history. Considering how fast he’s gone down I think it is possible. For instance, the former Obama Youth Army and the black voters are utterly demoralized by the brutal employment situation. His formerly fevered supporters might not be induced to come out against him but I guaran-damn-tee you they will not be turning out for him next election.

I am for Sarah all the way!!! I am afraid though that the Dems will try something tricky. I have a hunch that they will be so scared of Sarah by 2012, that they will ask Biden to step down and replace him with someone more exciting to the left. Perhaps Hillary or another woman? I see something like this happening.

My biggest fear is that I don’t see the Republicans working to protect the integrity of their primary elections, which could mean that the Dimwits will all cross over and vote for the worst possible Republican candidate, ala McCain.

It was not Sarah that lost it for McCain. It was McCain who lost it for McCain with all of his "I'll reach across the aisle, my friends" Bullcrap! That was why I didn't vote for McCain. Yeah, John. I voted for you so you could help the Democrats pass everything.

If Sarah runs, she has my vote. Tea Party or Republican, I don't care and she won't have a RINO as an anchor around her neck weighing her down. So the media and liberals will try to slander her. So friggin' what, we are paying attention to the media now? RINOs like Newt, McCain and Romney feel threatened? About time! All of those idiots went with the Global Warming crowd and lost me forever.

See my tagline for one of the ways to stop that from happening...

she is fast becoming a political rock star.

Sarah was a political rock star from the start. The stupid pundits simply can't recognize why we hoi polloi admire her so.

I have been against a third party candidate all my life because it always splits the vote.

BUT, we have never had a viable option such as Sarah Palin running third party.

I am so sick and tired of what the gop is dredging up for us to support, that I have few problems supporting her, and like people, who chose to run on a third party ticket.

What would be great to see is a STRONG third party with people for all government positions.

I would contain my enthusiasm for the left dumping Obama. When they stop frothing at the mouth they will realize that it's either him or Sarah, the devil incarnate to the incontinent liberal nursery.

They may be dispirited now, but their handlers will be poking them with sticks in a few months as the midterm elections gear up.

We shall see, but I really think its starting to sink in to the libs that they are on the menu as well. I truly believe that as they realize that being a good voting democrat does not make one recession-proof they will get the message. They may not turn out against Obama but they will stay home on election day.

Furthermore, Sarah (now unbound and able to do things her way) is really rising. All the MSM brickbats only raise curiosity and her Tonight Show appearance was masterful. EVERYBODY has seen the YouTube clip.
