Sarah Palin, assuming she runs for President, has a lot bigger worries than Krauthammer. There are a lot of major problems with Palin than those already committed to her as their choice want to admit. I’m not sure what damage was done by his comments. Sarah has all the big subjects right but let’s face it, she has yet to prove she can communicate or connect with those outside the conservative circle.

I think this position taken by most Palin supporters is getting a bit creepy. Ronald Reagan wasn’t this revered until he was out of politics for goodness sakes.

Perhaps people were not quite so desperate, nor well informed, in those days.

I think it’s creepy that your thoughts are so obtuse.

Krauthammer is an ass , and an elite for golly good gosh goodness sake.

Concern?

He was always revered by conservatives. I was a flaming socialist before Carter and when Reagan was president, I turned into a solid conservative, even to the right of RR himself. He was never revered by the Washington establishment types like Krauthammer and Will, who looked upon him as a kindly old fool.

He was not revered by the insider Washington crew until the day of his funeral.

Of all the Candidates that are in the running, Palin is the most Reaganesque. Most of the fools that Krauthammer would support are Ford-Dolesque.

I would not disagree with you at all. Her appeal seems to be on the narrow side. Unfortunately, given the state the country is in and appears to be sliding into, the next president is going to have to have some “savior” theater embedded in her/him. I don’t really appreciate having to choose a savior. I’d rather just vote for a leader like we’re supposed to do.

What I mean to say about CK is that he too-readily chimes in with dissing Palin. No one particular appearance means much, and even though I am not a SP zealot (though I would zero problem her running or winning) I don’t appreciate the shots taken at her. If she’s such a silly candidate, why must the media obsess over her? As I’ve said, if Jeffrey Immelt had undergone the withering attack SP has been thru, he’d be institutionalized. And while I don’t want to rain on anyone’s parade, I agree, the SP adulation is kind of creepy.
