You poor thing.

What ever would you have done in 1980, when the media narrative was Reagan was “too dumb’ and “not a serious candidate.”

EVERY poll had him losing to Carter in a landslide before he won the nomination (the establishment did NOT want him)

If we ever want to break the cycle of RINO’s (Nixon, Ford, Bush, Dole, Bush, McCain, Romney?) we need to get behind a real conservative and do so early.

The vast majority of Americans agree with Palin on the issues, she just has to overcome the false narrative that has been advanced to destroy her. Luckily, she has the truth on her side and that won’t be hard to do.

If she wants it, she will sin the nomination in a cakewalk and the White House in a landslide.

The comparison to Reagan has merit on some counts but not others. I believe experience will be a big issue in 2012 after the debacle of the current inexperienced president.

Reagan was governor of the most populous state in the country for eight years. Sarah was governor of one of the least populous states for two. Her short tenure as governor gives people pause whether we like it or not.

Given that her numbers with independents are getting worse rather than better, I am concerned that it will be hard to do. If the numbers start moving in a positive direction, I'll be in.
