HOW UN-PRESIDENTIAL!!!

I was appalled at Liz Trotta and 3 other conservative guest panelist (that I couldn't name) on this afternoons Fox newswatch hosted by Jon Scott all agreed that Palins new reality show, Sarah Palin's Alaska on the Discovery Channel was very unpresidential and it would sink her any chances for the White House.
The topic was that liberal advocacy groups were asking for the Discovery Channel to pull the plug on it. The consevative commentator Liz Trotta then said that she agreed with Karl Rove that this was a bad move for Palin. Trotta then goes on to take a pop shot at Palin saying "everytime this woman opens her mouth that her numbers go down". She then said "the more she speaks that she makes people simply not like her". Jon Scott did not ask Trotta why this was just like yesterday when Megyn Kelly didn't ask Meghan McCain why she thought Palin would be best as a reality star.
My question is why is Fox news who hired Sarah Palin allowing conservative guest freely without explanation to back up their facts to trash her and her message in a public forum? Why are they allowing people to tarnish her reputation as well as her new TV program which they advertize during commercial time? Something smells
I think she is ready. And I think she would change things. Our Israeli policy in the middle eaat. She wouldnt send a bunch of money to the palestinian authority. She wouldn’t spend our country into bankruptcy. she wouldn’t apologize for our country when she goes overseas.
So Illinois is Presidential! Ohio must be the ‘MOST’ Presidential as the most Presidents, 7, came from there.
Ranking Presidential-ness: Ohio -7; New York - 6; Virginia - 5; Massachusetts - 4; Tennessee & Texas - 3; CA, IL & PA - 2; GA, IN, IO, LA, MI, MO, NH, & NJ - 1.
Pundits & these Talking Heads are all full of ... {cough}!
I too though the show was about the State. Many beautiful sights in the Alaska, just like our other states.
Didn’t know states could run and hold elected office, though. Guess these pundits have set us straight.
I didn’t know Sarah was running! Did I miss an announcement?
Agreed.

Anybody care what Rove or anyother Progressive thinks?
Personally I don’t think she intends to run.
I think she intends to be an even greater problem by helping someone else to run.
Your type of thinking is what got this country into this mess in the first place. Appealing to “fence sitters” is not the answer. Win with someone who represents your values, or let the rest of the country put in another marxist that can continue to wreck the country and eventually those who are sitting on the fence will understand exactly what and who is running this country into the ground. Rino’s only blur the picture as the overwhelming majority of voters do not closely follow politics.
I would guess that “Conservatives from Dallas”, or any large city, are likely about as “conservative” as Mitt Romney. Just an opinion, but usually that observation is fairly accurate.
It's time to stop letting the so called political elitists, whose opinion must be considered above all others, run the show. The privileged class is terrified of having such a commoner come to power as it instantly wrecks their entire foundation of what and who they are. Elitists on both sides are well aware of the threat Mrs. Palin poses to their positions in society, and they will stop at nothing to insure she does not get nominated in 2012. This attitude has been prevalent for over 2 years now and there has been little to no letup. That fact should make any who follow politics closely aware of the intense fear she causes in the “political class”.
***The way Rove and the critics talk about Palin’s show as “unpresidential”, you’d think she was doing a strip act, not a travel/outdoors show.***
Right! Who does she think she is - Monica Lewinsky?
geesh. With friends like you morons in our party.. She deserves better from people like you. I would expect that from a bleeding heart Democrat. BUT you are supposed to be a conservative.
these “republicans” know they can’t survive a populist conservative revolution.
POST OF THE DAY!
And, according to one of the panelists, SARAH PALIN was paid a cool $ 1 MILLION for each episode in the series of eight!
Why does she ‘deserve’ anything?
Dog track time for Trotta. geez.
Cashola, she’s a smart biz lady. None of her family will need to work again.
That war is being fought right now between the new Tea Party elected Congress & the old republican establishment. We need to join that war & back the changes that the new Congress is doing batlle for.
The entire Tea Party movement across the country was formed to get rid of the RINOs & 'friends across the aisle' country club republicans. Independents joined in to elect these new young guns. We need to keep their fire stoked or we might just as well elect RATS.
I laugh at them all. All of these so-called Republican pundits, all voted for Obama in 2008, I would put money on it, this Liz Trotta moron and Rove, these establishment fools would rather have a Dem in office then a Conservative Republican that doesn’t live by their standards. It’s either bow down to them or not have their support..I’d tell them all to go F themselves but hey that’s just me
I like Palin and think she’s been treated unfairly by the press, but am not yet convinced she would be a good president. She has some rehab to do over the next sixteen months, and I think she’s taken some steps in that direction, but still has a way to go. But from day one of her national exposure, Alaska Dems said never underestimate her.
Bush did something else when he decided to run. 80% of the Republican Congress & Governors endorsed him. Bush surrounded himself with people of expertise in different fields at the same time building a strong campaign organ.
It would be wise for Palin to follow something similar.
