Bristol Palin tells "FOX & Friends" that her mother, former Gov. Sarah Palin, has made up her mind and "definitely" knows if she is going to run for President or not.
BRIAN KILMEADE, FOX & FRIENDS: "Do you get the sense that your mom has not made up her mind yet or do you think she knows and hasn't told told?"

I fail to see the point of the effort you put into this "list". Is the use of analogy a crime or something to be mocked? Is it improper to use historical context to interpret current events?
And you're missing Richard Nixon -- the cross-country involvement in House and Senate (and even Governor) elections in 2010 is straight out of the Nixon playbook, and was commented on at the time.
If you're going to do something pathetically useless, you may as well be complete about it.
You can’t really be that oblivious to the steamroller that’s bearing down on the Libs and Rinos.
Perhaps you would like to name one other viable candidate that is less in it for the money than Sarah Palin. Good luck with that.
Here’s a quote from a musician, for what it’s worth.
“contempt prior to investigation is a real drag. It can keep you ignorant for the rest of your life”
I’m not saying it’s applicable to you, it certainly is for the bulk of those that repeat the hard left talking points regarding Sarah Palin though.
Caught up in you? You’re obsessed with pissing on Palin threads. Seems you’re the one caught up in Palin.
I’ll need the links to those posts. :)
I did not make any of this list up. These comparisons were made by Palinistas. They were serious comparisons - not tongue-in-cheek comparisons. This list started well over a year ago.

You recoil at the application of the following Biblical statement to Palin:
If God be for us, who can be against us? Romans 8:31b
I don’t think it is an abuse if it happens in a particular case to be true.
Do you seriously believe that Sarah, as a Christian, has no right to claim the essential truth taught here? True, Paul is teaching in the context of personal salvation, and if you think it is misapplied to go beyond that, I understand where you’re coming from.
But what Paul states here is a general axiom that would be true in any number of contexts that go well beyond personal redemption, as has been demonstrated many times over elsewhere in Scripture. As just one of myriad examples, the temporal authorities attempted to keep Peter in prison. God wanted him out, so he got out. God always gets his way.
That truth doesn’t mean that any given politician can claim with any authority that God wants them and not their competitor to win. That would be true abuse of the passage at hand. Nevertheless, if God wants a particular person to rise to a position of power, there is no force nor power nor conceivable device of man that can stop it from happening. That should give grief to a wicked people and comfort to a righteous people, or at least a repentant people. If God is willing, no weapon of the left can stop us from installing the one right person for the job of getting America back on track. It is up to Him, to be sure, but once the course is set, there is no turning back.
I didn’t say it as made up. I said it was pointless and a waste of energy.
It’s also quite selective, as I don’t see, for example, Kim Kardashian on the list, to whom Palin is frequently compared to in a negative sense. But that doesn’t fit your agenda now, does it?
Well, now that Bristol told everyone that she has already made up her mind, she better have a good answer when she’s asked the questions tonight. She can’t say “We’re still thinking about it” without calling her daughter a liar.
Well said
” Personally I’m hungry for this fight. I’m so tired of the left in this country and the snobbish political class acting as though they are the king makers.”
Well stated. Count me in on the same desire.
However, we must use the proper ascii code symbol, like this:
Palin (™)
:)
” Then why, when asked by BOR, did she not say one word about the complaints? Not one word.”
She knows that Bill will run with it, and make it his topic.
She’s the one who will bear the consequences either way so better to handle it to meet her interests not his.
You appear to have a major problem with that. How much more are you willing to share?
Certainly if we were to judge these folks by their fruits, they would be seen as anti-Palin.
I love Sarah! Her biggest flaw might just be her biggest fans. Fatal Attraction was a fine movie, but I could not watch it for sixteen months without Fatal Revulsion kicking in.
Folks simply can NOT be judged as 'serious' defenders of Freedom and constitutional government if they say ridiculous things like: "SARAH is the only one to get our country turned around - that’s a given."
Good Lord, that is pathetic. And I mean that in the actually-evokes-sympathy definition. As important as this election has become and as hell-fire sure as these folks are that only "The One" conservative deliverer can save us, I have sympathy for them.
I would not be able to sleep at night if my politics and the whole nation's future were entirely based on a deliverer's well-being. Sarah is WAY too active. Her gun might jam and she could be eaten by wolves. The bus tour might get too close to Grand Canyon. She could be bent down over her ice fishing hole and get run over by Todd driving the sled team home with groceries. She might catch her death of cold up there and develop NewMonia. Who know?
What would we do ? America would be doomed!!!
My theory on the rabid RollinsPhobes is that they are actually him using a handful of handles. Either that or their hatred for him is just so literally mind-numbing that their brains are freed to concoct fantastical mystical conspiracies and unseen alliances... despite the fact that doing so only helps Rollins seem more correct.
Regarding the topic at hand, its seems Bristol is pregnant again. This time with information. This one could be a bigger distraction than the first if Sarah does not make an announcement soon. Her adult daughter is VERY certain Sarah has made up her mind. If Sarah continues to play coy, her honesty is diminished. Some of her faithful here think Palin is simply fiddling the press. Perhaps. But she's doing it to fans, the party and the people too.
At what point does fiddling become ducking?
I can't say exactly, but skipping debates certainly does not exude confidence. If Sarah had made the decision Bristol swears is made -before the debate- then Palin was being a wimp. You did not have to officially declare to join the debate so all the silly legal rationalizations don't apply.
It would be selfish and dishonest to make up your mind but deny it for political timing gains over your in-party opposition. Successful maybe, honest no.
