Up to now, I had not looked up the exact Sarah Palin quote about Paul Revere. "Ringing those bells"? "Warning shots" during the ride through town? (Ever try to reload a muzzleloader on a galloping horse?)
When I was in elementary school in the 1960's, every school child could tell you about Paul Revere and LANTERNS: "One if by land. Two if by sea."
If Sarah Palin were a Democrat, every one of us on FR would be making "public school education" jokes at the though of a candidate talking about Paul Revere ringing bells and firing warning shots.
The bottom line is that NEITHER Barack Hussein Obama nor Sarah Palin is impressing the American voters very much.
Forty six percent (46%) of all voters have said that they will DEFINITELY NOT vote for Obama. For a sitting President, that is atrocious. Such a President can only coast to a landslide reelection victory if the Republicans (Republicans make up only 29% of all voters) are foolish enough to nominate a candidate that SIXTY FIVE PERCENT (65%) of all voters have said that they will DEFINITELY NOT vote for. That would be Sarah Palin.
American cannot afford another four years of Barack Hussein Obama in the White House. America needs a conservative candidate without the severe limitations of Sarah Palin that are obvious to the vast majority of American voters other than the tiny eight percent (8%) that have said that they definitely WILL vote for her.
Bill Clinton did not announce his first winning candidacy until October of the year before the election. America has four more months for an electable conservative candidate to come along.
Sarah, like Galileo, was right. But you join to declare her words wrong by dictate. Every thing she said was historically correct.
Wow GREAT POLL! So Sarah is actually 50% more hated than Obama? I had no idea! That also sure explains why Romney is packing stadiums, and poor Sarah can’t get anyone to attend her events. Snicker,,
And only 8% of Americans would definitely vote for Sarah. MAN, that tracks my experience almost exactly!! /sarc
The bottom line is that NEITHER Barack Hussein Obama nor Sarah Palin is impressing the American voters very much.
Most American voters do not give a rat's a** right now about next year's election. It's over a year away. Once the actual campaign begins people start paying attention. Judging by the crowds she drew in '08 and her ability to influence the '10 elections, there have to be serious reservations about Gallup's 65% "definitely nots."
Ever hear of a "figure of speech?" (I'm sure that's beyond your education level.)
