The hard core left is obssessed with Sarah Palin. I think she should just keep doing what she has been doing and not run for president. She can be a strong advocate for conservative politicians, help raise money, write bestsellers, go on news shows and do her own TV specials and make tons on money. Also, drive the left nuts with jealousy over her ability to stand for faith, family and freedom. She drives the frumpy sour pusses crazy with jealousy as she has a career, loving family and handsome husband.

Why would anybody be jealous of Palin's faith, family and freedom? That is just silly. Your comment is well off the mark. Furthermore, your giddy elation for seeing people angry is disturbing.

Well you've got to admit, the Right hasn't put forward anyone interesting.

The Right finally has its own Oprah.

The middle overwhelmingly didn't vote for the Republicans, they voted against the Democrats. A subtle, but important difference. We'll see how Palin fares once she is out in the spotlight again and is asked unfair questions like "What is your plan on foreign policy" by spiteful liberal interviewers.

Took me a second to get your post. You mean the last midterm election. I have been thinking presidential elections and was going to say you were an idiot. I would have looked the idiot in the long run.

The general rule for the last 20 years at least has been voting against has been just as, or more, importnat than actually voting for anyone.

Persoanlly I think some leftists are making brilliant plays. Palin plays well in uber redneck areas. Areas that the right has almost no matter what. In the last election it seemed far more common for Palin to turn what should have been a easy republican victory into a close (and once or twice losing) race. Yet she got the far right out and visible so se gets credit, as if she had a positive influence, for avery easy victory she turned into a close race.

I thnk she presents a real challenge to liberals. It can be hard to keep a straight face.

Conservatives buy her books, watch her shows and pay her thousands to speak at their get together's and you think "the hard-core left" (what ever that is) are obsessed?

Hey! Thanks for agreeing! ;)

Also, drive the left nuts with jealousy over her ability to stand for faith, family and freedom.
"DRINK!" :D (I think we should add this to the drinking game! Every time someone claims people are just jealous of Governor Palin and that's why they point out things they should take a drink!) :wave:

She drives the frumpy sour pusses crazy with jealousy as she has a career, loving family and handsome husband.
DRINK! :D
tulc(suspects there's going to be a lot of drinking going on because of this delusion!) ;)

A career of being an ineffective Governor who had to resign in shame half way through because she couldn't handle the pressure?

Yep that is definitely Presidential material ^_^

Sarah Palin doesn't have to win the presidency, nor even the Republican nomination, to be successful. To be successful she needs to do nothing more than motivate the conservative base enough to defeat establishment Republicans and Democrats, since she's a leader in a conservative populist movement, not a Republican movement. This she does very well.

She has not failed, nor will she.

Because she's not a politician anymore.

Leader? or paid spokesperson?

Well, yes actually, she has. :sorry:


Given her past track record, there seems every chance she will. :wave:
tulc(needs more coffee) :sigh:

If you think the results of the just held election weren't largely due to her motivating the conservative base, you're wrong.

...and if you think she was largely responsible for the results you are mistaken. :)

Saying she doesn't hunt for fur while sitting in front of a bearskin rug doesn't win her any prizes. :D

Who do you think she should be trying to win prizes from?

I'm not interested in her winning prizes. I want her to motivate conservative voters. Not REPUBLICAN voters; CONSERVATIVE voters!

I think she failed by not getting in front of the firestorm during the campaign. The meia an dems was smacking her from every which way, and she was just taking the hits. Now that she knows how to ht back it'stoo late. Too many people don't like her, hate her in fact, and there is no undoing that.

When it comes to US politics i never thought failures successes viewpoints or any of that really mattered. Sarah Palin is a typical GOP conservative, dems will hate her republicans will love her. Two party system : d

This was done by artist Michael D'Antuono, and was entitled “The Truth”.
According to the artist: About This Painting
This painting was inspired by watching conflicting reports on the same issues on the different cable newscasts and the effect on their viewers. Peoples’ perceptions of the issues seem to get distorted though their political lenses. People have had drastically different interpretations from this painting. What you see in this painting will be a reflection of your own partisan view and that is precisely the point.

Good luck with that. Palin motivates whoever her financiers in the media tell her to motivate, and she's never been about the conservatives as much as about the Republicans.
