Oops on the new tag!!!

Sarah is talking about STRIPPERS in her speech. See! She’s no different than Howard Stern. I think I’m supposed to be offended. *faints*

[advertising guy]

she is a sound bite machine....her passion should be canned and sold

[Keith in Iowa]

I think she just give Karl Rove a figurative bird.

[Yaelle]

Did she just say “my campaign”?

She is not for sale!!!

[tomkat]

And FR is running like a scalded dog

How 'bout it !

[reasonisfaith]

“I’m not for sale”

She nukes all her enemies with this.

[Bikkuri]

She was talking about the “Government Famliy”

[Semper911]

The girl is ON !

Seriously. On fire!

[Springfield Reformer]

“Like you, I’m not for sale!” - Sarah Palin.

[Darth Tokarev]

Swipe schmipe. This is severing with the RINO’s.

More applicable line from LoTR: The world is changing.

This speech is big. really big. Even if she doesn’t run, the debate just changed again.

RUN SARAH RUN!!!

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

"Like you, I'm not for sale!"

Unlike Perry.

[GOPyouth]

I think she can overcome her negatives. Since they are not real

I hope she can overcome them too, but they are very much real. I know countless conservatives who have issues with her personally, but not her policy stances. Her leaving office in Alaska is the biggest issue I hear. These people are very worried that if she couldn't (in their opinion) take the heat in Alaska, she won't be able to take the heat in DC.

Whether that's fair or not, that's what I hear. This is from normal hard working conservative voters.

I hope she has a strong message to overcome that issue.

[hoagy62]

Oh, YEAH....hehehehe...I’m having a ‘McDonald’s Moment’...I’m lovin’ it!

[Liberty Valance]

Sarah is on fire today!

[taildragger]

Onyx, she is just a bit pitchy in with her voice, however she is really projecting. IMHO she has to be taking voice coaching, much much better....

Lots of passion.

[goodnesswins]

YEP....she is setting the DEBATE table....

[Red_Devil 232]

That was EXCELLENT~!

Oh she’s setting up a tsunami of change. Now I know what Bannon was talking about.
