Donna Brazile: Are you ready to hear 'Sarah Palin for President?"
Philly Burbs ^ | June 3, 2011 | Donna Brazile

Posted on 06/05/2011 5:32:14 AM PDT by Cincinatus' Wife

Once again, everybody in the mainstream media has been talking nonstop about former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.

Palin, whose nomination in 2008 helped turn a four-car funeral into a hit parade, deserves credit for re-entering what is sure to be a media bonanza worthy of competing with the summer's biggest blockbusters.

She is — as J.J. Walker from the hit series of my childhood "Good Times" used to say — dy-no-mite!

I'm a Democrat who recently served as interim chair of the Democratic Party. It's safe to say that Palin and I have our differences.

But I never got into the groove of simply dismissing her as a credible and successful politician. I didn't have the heart to join the "let's beat up on Sarah Palin" crowd. For one thing, Palin wasn't nicknamed "Barracuda Sarah" (by her high school basketball teammates) for nothing. She didn't need me to put out a call for civility. She's one tough political diva who knows how to take the heat. In fact, she's given every bit as good as she's taken.

[Snip of crow-eating commentary]

Palin goes for the hot mess, the controversy, small and large mistakes by President Obama and others she dislikes, and the 'lame stream' press laps it up.

Is this truly enough to revive Palin's sinking approval ratings? Will she get in the way of her own carefully staged and managed comeback into the political fray when the establishment (whoever they are) Republican Party is desperately trying to find the heir to Ronald Reagan's throne?

Here's what you should know and respect about Palin. She's tenacious, self-assured, focused and extremely likely to toss her hat into the ring when the timing is right because, unlike the other Republican presidential candidates,....

Why did Sarah meet with Trump?
Wouldn’t the heads explode if we had a Palin/Trump ticket?

I have never been more ready for anything in my life than “Sarah Palin for President” And hearing her victory speech and her inaugural speech.

“Are you ready to hear ‘Sarah Palin for President?”

Not really. I’d feel better about ‘Sarah Palin for Vice President’

I think that was more a tweaking of the GOP establishment than the lamestream media but it got attention all around the political spectrum.

Perhaps people are beginning to realize that Sarah, on her worst day, is only 20x as intelligent as the Obamaloon is on his best.

She can even speak without a teleprompter.

And, she can produce a real birth certificate - “you betcha”.

Oh, and she’s had real jobs, too.

Yep. Heard that the first 57 times it was posted.

I've seen you post this same sentence on two different threads this morning alone....maybe I should keep a count of it, eh?

Isn't freedom of speech a great thing, don-o? :)

"Here’s what you should know and respect about Palin. She’s tenacious, self-assured, focused and extremely likely to toss her hat into the ring when the timing is right because, unlike the other Republican presidential candidates, her potential candidacy is not tied to the conventional calendar or the mood swings of the other party leaders."

Donna Brazile gets it, and the GOP ruling class doesn't.

Who would have thunk it?

I was told not to “report abuse.” I have followed that order.

I was not told what I could post - except by you. Unless I missed something.

Agreed. I don’t agree politically with Donna Brazile (duh) but I suspect she’d be OK to have a couple of beers with - I don’t think she’s as “out there” as many on her team.
