Damn, Did you hear Palin's Speach at the Reagan Centental?

[El Laton Caliente]

Great speech, very presidential. I was impreased....

[Penguin]

Nope missed it.

[Altarboy]

I love her. I tried to get over her, but I can't. I know she's not a conventional intellectual like an NYU type, but she gets it done.

[ubersoldate]

I like her, but I have to admit I'm getting tired of her media blitz.
Guess I'm the percentage of R's who are deciding that her constant spotlight chasing is NOT making her more viable as a political representative.

I respectfully disagree Uber. I see it as finally someone taking it to the democraps/libtards without acting like they're ashamed to be conservative/republican. I find it to be a bit Reaganesque in that she refuses to be bullied to be quiet and not speak up against blatantly obvious stupid ideas/philosophies of the left. Do as Reagan did and bypass the BS media and speak directly the American public. But like I said, that's just my POV.

And no, I have not seen the speech yet. I'll prob have to catch it on youtube or some other website.

No wrong opinions man, if shes the one for you, then more power to ya!
Now, for me,
No REAL conservatives have been ashamed to be conservative, they dont apoligize for being one, its a talking point, the media doesnt care, she is all over ever channel and I just saw she is going to be starting her own clothing line, and perfume now?

Jeeze, maybe she should have stayed and did the job she was payed for in AK...But I guess the media bullied her out of that, so she says. So whats gonna happen if she actually wins a public office again?


Now dont get me wrong, if the R's decide to commit suicide, AGAIN, while running her against Obama, then I of course will vote for her, but I will be holding my nose as I do not think she would do a good job...But who knows, lets hope Im wrong.
I dont think she would win anyway, she has too many anti's in our ranks..

The speech wasnt bad, but I did think to myself a few times, that RR didnt have her record, he was a family man, a conservative, who did what was right, not what made him money and got him attention..

While I agree, I see her as being similar to John the Baptist, maybe paving the way for SOMEONE? Her head will be served up on a plate soon enough by some treacherous pricks.

I do like the woman. Even if her voice irritates me a bit. Keep preaching Sarah. You won't be President though. I wish I could eat those words.

[recon]

Anyone have a link to it?

[Krupski]

She's keeping herself in the Public Eye™. Smart move. People vote for who they see and who they remember. People are stupid... so whatever works to get their attention... do it.

[Congo]

and paraphrasing HDR, "and that type of intellectual has gotten us where?" ;)

IMV, I don't think she's going to be elected to any national office soon, and probably not any state/local either as she's brewed enough hatred from the liberal/progressives and their institutional dominance that whatever her duties would be, they would be lost in the endless media BS. Sort of like what happened in alaska after she dare challenge barry soetoro/obama's real world credentials/experience.

I think she's just the motivator, the face of dick and jane USA. (michelle bachman is the one to watch).
But she was going after barry when everyone else was either running away or licking his patent leather chicago shoes.
I started listening to Rush about that time also as it seems like only those two dare step out and question, regardless of the consequences of it.

Hat's off to both. Watch the conservative women as they continue to step up and be counted.

[HDR]

Not being the same type is probably why she gets it done.

The academic elite believes in great words accompanied by less than mediocre deeds. They are bred in an environment which applauds great words.

If your car is broke you fix it. They would make a great speech then blame everything under the sun when the damn car didn't start afterward.

[slamfire51]

Well, we have a Black (cross breed) as President which is a first for the country.
So why not have a woman as President?
I'd much rather have Sarah as President than have Hillary "pants-suit" Clinton controlling things.

[Penguin]

Jeeze, maybe she should have stayed and did the job she was payed for in AK...But I guess the media bullied her out of that, so she says. So whats gonna happen if she actually wins a public office again?

That is my only major concern with her. If it wasn't for that I would be all over her running for president. I honestly though don't think that she will run. I kind of think she has become the republican tea party motavatior and that seems to be her nitch.

[O.S.O.K.]

I missed it too. And I did a search and it came up nada - figures.

I personally like the woman. I think if she were to be elected POTUS, that she'd push for more reforms than any "system" candidate that I've seen.

Can she get elected? I think the leftstream media will be lying their asses off about her for the whole campaign - they are very much afraid of her because I think they also believe that she will institute the reforms - Constitutionalis reforms.

As to her departing from the AK Governorship, I take her at her word that she did it because she was having to spend all of her time defending herself from attacks and that the state deserved a full time Governor. The facts are in her favor on that.

[El Laton Caliente]

Out of the current front runners she is the only acceptable one in my book.

Newt is a distant second but he jumped the shark on the global warming a while back when he got on the couch with Pelosi...

Mit and the Huckster are flaming RINOs...

Perhaps and perhaps IF elected she would pull a Reagan on them. Reagan would get on TV and talk to the people and the phone call and snail mail bombardment of the Shit house and syphilitic Senate would begin.

As she says more of what most of us are saying and thinking ourselves we hear her loud and clear. With a high predator drive and a mouthful of teeth the lady has some Pitt Bull in her.
When McCain lacked the stones to unhook her leash is when he lost the election to a creep she would have chewed apart.

As you probably remember I believe Rush is a pompous sounding ass but I listen to him. Same with Mrs. Palin and she is a long ways from being pompous. Sure she says the wrong things but she says too many of the right things to ignore her as some do.

I'd welcome her to the debate- as well as John Bolton and I’m sure we’ll know a few more soon. Romney needs to GTFO. I'm not worried about Huckabee- he's like a right/center Donahue.

[El Laton Caliente]

Huckabee will do the same as last time. Draw just enough of the Christian right vote to be a spoiler....

[jeremiah johnson]

I hope she doesn't become the front runner. She will not sway any of the women
votes. She is UNBELIEVABLY HATED by the left to the point that they want her
dead. SHE IS NOT THE CANDIDATE THE RIGHT NEEDS TO WIN THE NEXT ELECTION.
What they need is a young, handsome, supersmart, man who has some balls that
can hand any demo opponent in a debate their head on a plate. We don't need to
parade some old dried out fart on the campaign circuit. Thats how we lost the last
election.

It wasn't age, Reagan wiped the floor with the Dims. They ran a reach-across-the-isle RINO that would not square off against his opponent. McInsane inspired nobody; he isn't liberal or crismatic enough to pull Dims across and he makes constitutionalists puke.

Found a vid of the speach.

[matshock]

McCain was the Republican Party surrendering to the Dems- on purpose. Romney was winning then bowed out to stay "fresh" for 2012. Romney is just Obama without the insane marxist baggage- he could well have won.

Romney cost us the 2008 POTUS election as much as anyone.

My uncle voted for McCain/Palin against the possibility that McCain would die in office and we'd get Palin. I heard that sentiment often in 2008.

Personally, I just voted for McCain because as much as he's a wishy washy fool he's not a died-in-the-wool traitorous scum bag like Obama.

[ubersoldate]

No they arent.
Sherriff Joe gets attacked on a daily basis by every single government agency under the sun, he still does his job better than ever.
Her supposed attacks would have died down, but her love of attention and money, that was brought to light, will not.

[O.S.O.K.]

I can't say that you aren't right. But a Sheriff has a lot less responsibility than a Governor and whe was under constant attack and scrutiny. She would have done better politically staying in office and doing a good job at it...

Regadless, I think this is all for discussion only as she's just not going to be able to make the "independent" vote hurdle.

Like it or not, there are still a shit load of idiot "moderates" in this country that sway with the wind and are all to ready to believe any BS that is reported in the media regardless of voracity.

I'd have to look and see if I could find it again, but the estimate for her to spend another few months in office was $30 to $50 million cost to the state of Alaska and $5 million personnel legal costs. Her opposition led by corrupt politicians she had throw out of office was filing 2 and 3 lawsuites a week. They were all being won or thrown out as baseless, but they still had to pay the lawyers.

If we had loser pays in the civil courts this never would have happened.

Now I would like to say that I dont dislike her, and not arguing with you guys, but I need to play the other side here as well..

W was attacked constantly, more than any other president was he not?
If running AK was too much for these supposed attackers, does she think that they will not be after her in the most powerfull position in the free world?

And Id like to add, those numbers were proved false many times over, but she is running on the victim card.

The real numbers are far more scary of the money of legislation that she started, then let lie as when she quit, that the taxpayer had to foot.
THIS is what bothers me.
She did not take her oath to this country seriously enough IMO. She QUIT, leaving those who voted for her, out in the cold. To sell books and reality TV shows.

She tells us she is a conservative, but she has yet to prove she is one, her actions are that of any millionaire, plus she has tricked alot of her base into thinking she is one of us but in the end, she seems to be another jet setter, speech maker, but no solid acts of anything that does not make her money.
Please feel free to set me straight if this is not the case.

I too voted for her and Mcstain, for HER alone, but she has since, showed me that she is just a mouthpiece, and not a thinker or mover.
But I'm sure there will be alot of people who will buy her "Conservative" clothing line, which has been reported to be made overseas....

I hear you and agree 100%, but the same amount of liberal sheep are represented by an equal amount of R's who listen to what the media tells them, and whole heartedly believe Palin is the next Reagan, having never looked at the proof of her actions instead of the flurry of her words and constant speech making.

As HDR stated in another thread recently, We as Americans seem to have mixed up the meaning of ACTION with the ideals of TALKING.

And I, have yet to see any action from the republican party to defeat Obama in 12, other than promote a woman who can not win.
This, and another 4 years of socialist idiocy bothers me deeply.

[El Laton Caliente]

I'd like to see Michell Bauckman(sp?) in there, but currently she isn't in the top 5. Well we have a year to decide who to get behind. I hope a real conservitive comes to the lead and I don't want to see the dims pick our candadate like Hillary did last time.

The Nazis hated and feared Patton so Eisenhower gave them Patton.

Mrs. Palin has a "thing" about corruption and Washington DC needs a big dose of that.

Yeah, that's pretty much as I see it, I really like Palin, but I'm hoping the Republicans come up with someone better. But if she does somehow win the nomination, I'd vote for her with a clear conscience.

[weevil]

Oh I dunno as I see it she's no worse than the rest of the pack.

It's not like we have a huge field of upstanding, noble, honset, and righteous candidates to pick and choose from.


I must say her handlers have done a good job of transforming her from a ditzy, bumbling, rube into very polished right-wing media star. They seem to be grooming her to be a sort of American version of Margaret Thatcher.

By 2012 she may well be a very viable candidate.



Seriously would you rather have Mitt Romney???

The good news here is that Obamacare is so close to Romneycare that it will seriously hurt him if he tries to run- maybe enough to stop him from sabotaging the race again.

Hmmmm- if he has a strong showing early on I may have to vote for the next strongest candidate just to shut him out; if that is Palin so be it.

[Congo]

a Sheriff has a lot less responsibility than a Governor
Good observation.
If the mainstream liberal/progressive media and institutions kept an AZ sheriff in the headlines for his fight against wetbacks/mojados, the real issue of illegals coming into this country unfettered and sucking it dry would become a topic of discussion. So the astute, ignore him...and focus on someone that has the same values, but is located in alaska--an outstanding reason to discredit her and not listen to anything she has to say.

I've often thought that was funny, how Gov. Palin was attacked for being so isolated.....yet someone on the front lines, a sheriff in AZ, is ignored.

Anyone get that?

Romney would not be my choice, but, at least he knows business, understands how the world actually works, unlike the clueless fuck in the White House now. Sure Romney is too liberal, and I think he did some go along to get along stuff while governor, it just depends on what the choices end up being.

Exactly, she doesn't let the left get away with the bashing. Bush never spoke up for himself and his silence reinforced the attitude he was weak and stupid. The left counts on conservatives keeping quiet and that's why they hate her soooooo much. She doesn't lay there and take the verbal whippping silently. She represents everything they think is Corny or Wrong with being conservative and a Patriot. She has a Down's Syndrome baby and didn't abort it! Gasp! She has a career and a family, the left has told women they have to choose one or the other, job or family and if you choose family then you are stupid!

[Congo]

In spite of themselves, that's what "the people" want. They just want everyone elses programs/benefits/cash cut.

Ryan hopefully will change WI and castrate the union monopoly. That will affect MN, which has always been a liberal state also. IL is hopeless.
Mmm....WI is sounding like iraq with the domino theory.
