Sarah Palin still has great political instincts. 20 of her 22 endorsements won in 2014.
Democrats, and Democrat influenced campaigns are about personalities as the position of issues is already set.
If Sarah can make the election about ‘real’ jobs, not part time no future minimum wage Obamajobs, security and safety in your home and on your street, tax elimination or reduction,and not hot deals for crony capitalists, and a lucid foreign policy, Sarah Palin can win.

As I see it, we only have one chance to turn the country around and that's 2016. If we don't elect a conservative the socialists and demographics will hasten our demise to banana republic status. We will then be vulnerable and China and/or Russia will jump at the opportunity. . not to mention the Muslims.

Pray for America and support Cruz/Palin 2016! We need mature patriotic adults back in Washington D.C.!

I’ve been watching what the Left is doing and you have been making my point about Palin being made white hot radioactive.

___________________________________________

Well guess what pal; the Left will be doing that with all of our people. How about we not help them out here. Your attitude will help ensure we have another RINO.

Sorry, but if she were truly “radioactive” with NO chance, the Left wouldn’t keep going after her.

It is not name calling, it is who you deem a twit.

It tells us all we need to know of where you are coming from.

You are sussed out.

For what it’s worth dept re: Palin announcement...

http://conservatives4palin.com/2011/10/governor-palin-announced-she-will-not-be-seeking-the-presidential-nomination-for-2012.html

October 5, 2011

Wasilla, Alaska
After much prayer and serious consideration, I have decided that I will not be
seeking the 2012 GOP nomination for President of the United States. As always, my family
comes first and obviously Todd and I put great consideration into family life
before making this decision. When we serve, we devote ourselves to God, family and
country. My decision maintains this order.....

Complete statement at above link which was read out loud by Mark Levin prior to her interview.

Really? With my posting history, you're going to say that?

Sorry, but if she were truly “radioactive” with NO chance, the Left wouldn’t keep going after her.

You're wrong about that. The Left keeps going after W. also and he's not running for anything.

Have a nice day.

Enjoy your lunch.

If the Republicans have her on the ticket I might even vote Republican.

If she’s not on the Republican ticket I hope she runs on a CONSERVATIVE ticket. The Republican party is useless, time to get a new one anyway.

Any of those options are fine. We just need to get conservative mature adults back in or we're screwed. They would have an A Team cabinet, nominate conservative SCOTUS judges, . . the whole top down effect throughout Washington D.C. and the hinterlands. . federal judges, you name it. . get rid of the socialists. . a whole new attitude/cultural shift. . will take a Lot of work, but can be done.

LOL so now we get another year or more of people holding onto every stupid thing this woman says like it’s pure gold and a sure sign that she’s running...and then they’ll yank the rug out from everyone at the last minute yet again....

Can’t wait...I’m popping the popcorn now.

Palin’s chance of ever becoming President or Vice President ended when she quit office halfway through, period, it’s over for her for those two offices..

time to move on to someone like Gov. Walker.. a proven inspirational Conservative leader who loves sticking it to the left wing establishment. This guy knows how to win elections in a state full of lefties and that’s what all this boils down to. He’s a conservative who can win those midwest swing states..

I supported her early on but her hemming and hedging and endorsements and reality crap turned me off largely

And I ask

Do folks here ever bother to study the The Alaska Permanent Fund stuff

I’m ambivalent about that sort of thing

But I promise if a RINO or libtard did it folks here would scream

It’s just giveaway plain and simple but given Alaska doesnt need all the money is takes in.... Especially from Feds too aka natives welfare and environment care taking

What is the option?

A better option would have been to lower state taxes rather than a cash giveaway

Nobody is perfect and she inspires in speeches and sound bites

But her best chance was last go around and she teases till the bitter end even though she made no preparations

Serious candidates today start by this summer

I recall with Palin folks kept thinking shed announce right up to Iowa but with no campaign ready

That crazy book flared her off

The media would find every man she ever slept with and the more salacious the better.... Not to mention do the same to her kids

Its lamentable

Either way I’m happy, I just want to see a victory here. We’re all vested in salvaging what we can of our nation.

Just remember, the fire has been lit, America is on fire, and the arsonists have two more years to fan the flames.
IF a Conservative ticket wins in 2016, it will take the first four years just to call 911, and drag out the fire hoses. Whomever wins might not look so good by 2020.
