Pro-Palin group to run ads in Iowa

(CNN) - A pro-Sarah Palin group will start airing TV ads Wednesday in Iowa, urging the former Alaska governor to reconsider her decision against running for president.

Palin announced she wouldn't launch a White House bid in early October, ending years of speculation that the 2008 GOP vice presidential running mate might seek the Republican nomination in 2012.

Conservatives4Palin, a large online group, made the ad buy for $6,500.

The group said the ad will air for a week in Sioux City, with spots during ABC's "Good Morning America" and "Dr. Oz," as well as during local news programs in the evening.

RE :"Is it on DVD yet? "

Pay-per-view comes first.

I see The Undefeated DVD goes for $8 a copy on the internet.

I think Huntsman has potential to be a solid nominee. If you can get past his “moderate” rhetoric, he actually has a great platform - particularly on the economy and the banking system. As governor he was strong on school choice, and was a favorite of CATO.

I also believe that he has the ability to win big in the general - and if that happens, the GOP will keep and perhaps expand its House majority and take a several seat majority in the senate.

Huntsman, however, faces long odds in the primary. After him, I guess our best option is Newt. I have some doubts about him though...

A lot of the sicko Palin-haters around here condemning her for not running are just disappointed because they were salivating at the prospect of seeing the continuing media gang-rape of her through the primary season.

Which part is the pipe dream - that establishment republicans will get the hint if we don’t vote their way for President, but concentrate on filling the legislature only?

You’re probably right. Even so, I am not convinced the “most electable republican” gambit will ever give us anything but a split conservative vote and a liberal winner in the primaries, who will then be taken down by the opposition in the general. The very argument for why a third party splits the general vote is the best argument against running a mushy conservative as the front runner, effectually splitting the conservative vote several ways before it ever gets to face a democratic opponent.

Now, if the several better candidates could get together and work something out so that they don’t split their constituencies against whichever one it is that favors Romney, or leverage the caucuses in some way to edge him out, then I would have reason to hope... But I fear that is too much to ask.
The fact that none of them seems to be able to do this makes me even less happy with the crowd from which we have to choose. If they put the country first, or were trustworthy enough amongst themselves to make deals and push another front runner, we could have hope. Conservatism wins, and wins big, when it is tried. For some reason, the establishment is not convinced, and won’t try it. That, not my vote of no confidence, is what will cost the presidency.

Don't forget that raging fire that was in her belly, until the time came.

Palin had the fire

Lol good one. These palinites are hilarious tonight.
Let me try to be like them.

“You’ll never know the kind of sacrifices this brave brave soldier of freedom has had to endure. If you were george washington’s great great great grandson you wouldn’t have 2% of the nerve this patriotic barcudda grizzly has. Any sane person can see that. Better find another thread du’er!”

Did that sound like them?

Excellent effort!

Let me give it a try.

“She fought back against tremendous odds as people moved next door to her, she had to go camping with Kate Gosslin and run on the same ticket as John McCain! Oh the humanity of the brutality endured by this Mama Grizzly who is greater than Ronald Reagan don't you know.”

She decided to NOT run to save the country. Forget that we were told milllions of times that she HAS TO run to save the country. That was before she announced she wasnt running, about 30 hours after the "undefeated' DVD went on sale in stores.

Memo to the haters:

Cute jokes, guys.

Sorry about your candidates.

Someone moved next door! Oh no please no!

Next you’ll tell me a real horror story like someone actually watched that movie she made. Now that, my friend, would be frightening.

At least our candidates (whoever they are) are running.

A candidate who is running is better than one who isn’t.

SNAP!

Unfortunately, at this point, anybody who’s been following this race and is honest with themselves knows that’s nonsense. This field is a disaster. That it’s such a disaster that some people want to take a walk on the whole bunch and vote for somebody who opted out ought to be a big freaking warning flag to you.

Running? Really? That’s an interesting way of describing it. I’ve seen Special Olympians who run more adroitly than this. I saw the Pythons run more adroitly than this in the Upper-Class Twit of the Year skit. I think I probably ran more adroitly than this on weekends in college when I was blind drunk. This is horrible.

Imperfect is one thing. Unacceptable is another thing entirely. Right now, the only way these guys are more winning than the gov is in the “Charlie Sheen with a mound of blow, a pitcher of martinis, and a brace of crab-riddled skanks” sense.

Actually it’s in the dollar bin at Wal Mart. Bet Steve Bannon is so glad he sunk his fortune into making this flick.

Why would they run ads of Palin unless, it was to gear up for an endorsement of one of the candidates
