Stopped reading there. Not a Palin fan, but that’s just stupid.

Pretty cool seeing people in their 80s and 90s voting in a school board election!

Who in the ‘H’ is Douglas Cohn, and why is Eleanor Clift listed second to who-in-the-’H’?
Interesting a BIG name Lefty journalist is listed as second banana to a who in a really bad hit piece.

There is one comment, at the articles link (at this time). It pretty much sums it up, perfectly....
No, actually Tina Fey’s script were not Palin’s words. Some not-so-bright liberals actually believe Palin said some of the things Fey attributed to her, but she didn’t.
It was the Republican establishment that gave us McCain and Romney. What is your “logic” about Republican leaders picking a “winning candidate”, when they’ve failed in the last two presidential elections?
Do you realize 60% of Republican voters (in the 2014 midterm elections) want a new Speaker of the House? You rave about Boehner as if he’s popular, or something.
And finally, no one has been purged. Every newly elected Republican senator is pro-life and ran on a campaign to repeal Obamacare. Even McConnell ran commercials promising to repeal Obamacare. Of course he’s a liar, but then that’s why you like him.
All in all, a very poorly written opinion piece, because it’s not based in reality. It’s 100% liberal fantasy.
+1,000!

long ago Tina Fey developed an entire Palin comedy routine using Palins own words for the script. If Ms. Clift uninformed or does she choose to deliberately lie to the public?

Next came the tea partys influence on Republican primaries, that is until nominees started talking about legitimate rape and such. Whoopi Goldberg talked about "rape rape" (legitimate rape" and that other kind of rape that Hollywood and Barack Obama was okay with. Y'know, where they let Roman Polanski walk for fleeing the country after going on trial for raping a 13-year old girl who was 'ruffied' with drugs and alcohol. When she protested the vaginal rape, Roman switched to orally and anally sodomizing her. But that wasn't "rape rape" at least according to the host of ABC-Disney's The View.
For the record, the victim still insists it was rape and non-consensual. She just didn't see the point in bothering to put the creep in jail now and certainly didn't want to have her own life upended with talk about it and reopen old wounds.

Nationwide, Democrats outnumber Republicans Does she count the 40% of all non-income tax paying Americans as Democrats? Then she may have a point. However, there exists a sizable block of citizens who do not like politics and do not vote, even if you give them free handouts.
If there really were more Democrats, they wouldn't have lost the mid-term elections.

I should say something clever or intelligent. Instead, let me just say instead that Eleanor Clift makes me want to vomit.

So, how do mainstream Republican leaders get the party to coalesce around a winning candidate? They begin by purging. This is a top-down operation because the bottom-up zealots keep nominating and electing candidates to nowhere. Because Bob Dole, John McCain, and Mitt Romney were such 'winning' moderate candidates. < /sarc >
Meanwhile the Democrats keep pushing cookie cutter leftists as the presidential nominee. None of their stances are ever 'extreme'.

More wishful thinking from the liberals. I'm as big a Palin fan as I ever was. The only thing I hold against her is helping McCain win his re-election bid. I would seriously consider a 2016 ticket with her name on it.

Interesting. Before I posted I looked up Douglas Cohn in a search, and found nothing of interest much less a long time collaboration of those two.
Win some, lose some.
