Wink Sarah Palin plans to run for POTUS.........

Heard on the WSJ this morning Sarah plans to make her announcement for the Presidency after a tour in the New England area and at the final stop in New Hampshire.... They claim that she will have the TEA parties complete endorsement and will give the existing GOP a real run for the money..... He felt she has a good chance to win and get the nomination....

The answer to the current POTUS's prayers.

My wife and I were actually talking about this yesterday. If she can pull off the nomination, I would vote for her. I think she gets a bum rap and blown off just because she is not as polished as others. On the other hand, she is a flak magnet for the libs. She stands for everything they hate. Given a chance, she would be worlds better than what we have.

Agreed. I'm going to keep my fingers crossed though in hopes that she doesn't end up helping BHO get re-elected.

If we can flip and get a Conservative majority, SP can hopefully pull one off as well.

There are worse evils....but it makes me laugh to think of how worked up the Libs get over her entire existence.

"SHE SHOT A MOOSE ON TV??!??!??! THE HUMANITY!!"

It was a caribou, dumbfuck.

She will use all the free publicity of running by spending donors money. Drop out or not get nominated. Then write a book about the whole experience and make a few more million. I wish she would just go away. She can't handle simple interview questions unless they are scripted. But people think she should be President.

I like Sarah. While not as sophisticated as the other candidates, she is fairly intelligent. That being said, without going into detail, she is unelectable. William F Buckley said we should put forward the most electable conservative candidate. She is a great fundraiser. That is where she can help the most, that is what she should be doing....

Is this point really a sustainable argument in favor of Governor Paiin's candidacy?

(FWIW, the "they" included Gerald R. Ford. <<LINK>>.)

I guess I really wasn't going for "sustain". Just a gut feeling.

I wouldn't be so quick to make that judgment. She damn near beat his ass last time, in spite of McCain.

Lotta real estate filled with frustrated Sarah-lovers in between now and 11/12.

President or not, I'd take 4 years just looking at her.

It would make Camp David more interesting.

Here is the simple question I want hammered home and focused like a laser by the eventual Republican nominee.

Are you better off now than you were four years ago?

Maybe they could follow that up with these.

Are you happy with the hope and change of the past four years?

Do you want more of the same?

I have a plan to deal with the challenges that face us. Here it is. What are the details of your plan, Mr. President?

As the POTUS, are you ultimately personally responsible for the success or failure of this administation?

Here is a question I will ask myself:

"Do you think any Conservative candidate posed so far will do a whole HELLUVA lot better job at every facet of running this Country than that done since '08?"

But, of course.

With the possible exception of a couple that have declined to run.

No, she is not polished, but not being polished enough is not why she IS NOT going to be POTUS. Perhaps it was the "wolf kill" from the chopper that got her in trouble..lmaool
Why don't you run?
