Sarah Palin for President
- (Washington Post):"Even if he loses his presidential bid, John McCain bequeathed an invaluable gift to his running mate, Sarah Palin:
- the national prominence that could allow her to compete for the GOP's nomination in 2012."...
- (Washington Post): "While Palin has not laid out a formal vision of where she would want to take the party -- her adviser
- Tucker Eskew told reporters recently that she planned to do that "after they're elected" --
- EVEN IF SARAH PALIN DID NOT EXIST, EVERY OTHER SO-CALLED REPUBLICAN SHOULD HAVE LONG-SINCE RETIRED TO PRIVATE LIFE
- IN TOTAL AND UTTER DISGRACE. THEY ARE AN EMBARRASSMENT. ON TOP OF IT ALL, THEY CRUELLY DID THEIR BEST TO DEFEAT AND DEFAME SARAH PALIN. (sm)
- "As things stand today, Sarah Palin is the obvious populist candidate and, for now, the very-very-early frontrunner for the 2012 nomination, given her now-massive name recognition (the woman's every TV appearance is a ratings bonanza), amazing talents as a retail politician, appeal to the base, and the GOP tendency towards nominating the next in line. Granted, only two candidates in the part century (Bob Dole and Franklin D. Roosevelt) have won a major party nomination after being the VP nominee for a losing ticket (not counting Mondale, who'd already been VP), those two waited 12 and 20 years before doing so, respectively, and recent history has been unkind to those who tried (Edwards 2008, Lieberman 2004 - see also Quayle 2000).
...on the challenges facing Gov. Palin - the short answer is that inexperience is the easiest thing in the world to fix, but she'll have to face tougher budgetary times in Alaska in light of falling oil revenues, she'll have to withstand what is
- likely to be an ongoing national campaign by the Democrats to take her down or hobble her re-election efforts to cut off
- the likeliest threat to Obama, and she'll have to develop and sell her own, independent agenda and demonstrate a greater breadth and depth of knowledge on national politics than are required from the running mate slot.
Upside in the primaries: the socially conservative, moose-hunting hockey mom could potentially be well-suited to the early GOP primary/caucus electorates in Iowa, New Hampshire and Michigan."
- UPDATE, 11/5: It would be best for our candidate for President in 2012, Sarah Palin, to quickly separate herself from these truly sick Republicans. Even though they themselves have long since proven to be failures, they will not give up demonizing her. Instead of wasting time worrying about them, break off into the Conservative Party. I do not watch Fox News, but they need to be cut loose as well. (sm)
