Joe Scarborough: ‘Sarah Palin Is The Republican Party’s Barack Obama’

video
» 297 comments

Joe Scarborough may have just come up with the worst possible backhanded compliment to Sarah Palin. Discussing her trip to Iowa with Andrea Mitchell on MSNBC today, he lauded her as “the one political star in the Republican Party right now” and for her “questionable ability to govern” and status as a “political superstar,” crowned her “the Republican Party’s Barack Obama.”

“She’s got star quality,” Mitchell noted as she observed the massive crowds following her in Iowa. Scarborough agreed enthusiastically, arguing that “of all the candidates in this race, there’s no doubt Michele Bachmann and Ron Paul excite their different bases, but there is one political star in the Republican Party, and that is Sarah Palin.”

He went on, sensing that what he was about to say would “engage both sides,” but made the argument that Palin was “the Republican Party’s Barack Obama”: “not a whole lot of experience in Washington before running in 2008, questionable abilities to govern based again on the fact that she was only governor for a couple of years in Alaska and Barack Obama was really only a glorified state legislator.” Nonetheless, he noted that they both had a similar ability to energize their base.

It’s a pretty brave comparison in that it’s fairly difficult to think of anyone on either side of the political spectrum that wouldn’t take some offense to it– likely most of all Texas Gov. Rick Perry, whose newfound status as frontrunner may be hindered if the belief that Palin is the only analog to the President– and thus the only one that can beat him– maintains any popularity.

    Joe clearly lied when he said Obama was “only a glorified State legislator” when he was actually a US Senator.
    Typical GOPbagger spin.  In other words, “lies”.

    He was a half-term Senator. You really think he had the right experience to be prez over Hillary? Aren’t you constantly using the fact that Palin only had half a term to rip her? Do you think you’re side REALLY made the right decision looking at where we are now? Have things gotten worse or better in the last 3 years? Was a half-term Senator and “community organizer” the right way to go in your opinion?

    Sarah Palin can only be compared to Barack Obama in the way of star power. She is by far the most popular politician in the Republican party. And second only to the President of the United States in popularity in politics in general. But she also has executive experience. She served two terms as Mayor of Wasilla, AK, and half a term as Gov. of AK. She would’ve served a full term as Gov., if not for the ethics complaints constantly being filed against her. All of which were dismissed, by the way. But, nonetheless, nearly bankrupted her family, and sent the state of AK into a tailspin. She did the right thing by stepping down. Sarah Palin is the only one who can make Obama a one-term President. She’s got my vote locked up.

    As much as I like what Sarah Palin has to say, she is un-electable. There is no way she could beat Obama. The media did their job and thoroughly destroyed her. She couldn’t carry the independent vote and without it she couldn’t win.

    Fact: I like the way Obama became a state legislator
    from Chicago. To do it Obama had to get the other two blacks thrown off the ballot,
    so that left only Barracks names on it and that the others cleared their names
    late in the game from Obama’s accusations and but both were told that they
    would have to be write in candidates only due to date being so close to the
    voting day. So that’s how he the anointed one cheated his way to win the spot.
    Then Obama was able to move to the Senate for less than one term then quitting
    it for President.

    Two months ago I would have agreed with you…  and though I am not a Palin supporter per say I think that this president is showing less and less leadership and the American people see this.  He will come out with such a negative campaign over the upcoming months that he will turn the American people save for his most ardent supporters away from him.  His rhetoric will become more vile than in the past and his enemies list more expansive, his cheerleaders will be trolls like DWS and the Schumers of the Democratic party..  I would in no manner count Palin out as she has become more formidable with time and the president will only diminish in his stature…  regardless of what our progressive friends here have to say.

    A few years back, Larry King was interviewing the singer Jewel. Since they were all liberals in the room, Larry gave Jewel the softball setup so she could bash Palin. He asks, “so what do you think of Sarah Palin? you’re both from Alaska, of course…”
    But Jewel suprised him, and actually turned it around. She said, [paraphrasing, of course] while I don’t agree with Palin on a number of issues, I really have to say, she’s an Alaskan woman… do not underestimate Alaskan women, we’re a breed apart. We start what we finish, and once we get an idea in our heads, there’s really no stopping us.

    That always stuck with me. I’d love to see the actual clip now that I think of it.

    Scarborough must be the GOP’s Jimmy Carter, then. He started off with a bang, showed promise, ran into trouble and was retired due to illness – the voters got sick of him. He’s been bitter ever since, convinced he was the best thing his party ever saw and trash-talks his fellow party members who show a strong following. And, like Carter, I am tired of hearing his tiresome blather and holier-than-thou sanctimony.

    Who thinks Sarah Palin is actually qualified to be POTUS? While she has three times Obama’s executive experience, she’s put in less than 10% of the time that W, Clinton, Bush 41, or Reagan did. And her experience was in much smaller venues. She’s the bar band playing covers at the corner bar. We need Zeppelin or the Stones, acts who can fill a stadium. Star power? Certainly.

    Abraham Lincoln before being elected President. His record shows he couldn’t be elected dogcatcher. People will say, “Is this idiot really comparing Palin to those two?”

    It’s easy to look back at Lincoln and Gandhi NOW and see greatness but nobody saw it in Lincoln during the 1850′s or Gandhi in 1893.

    Neither Zachary Taylor or Herbert Hoover had held an elective office prior to being president.

    How about Nelson Mandela?

    David Ben Gurian, Israel’s first prime minister?

    Scarborough must know these things but for reasons of his own chooses to ignore that some of the world’s greatest leaders never held office before going on to greatness and that there were those with platinum political resumes–like Carter and James Buchanon that were colossal busts.

    So think going back to the party that made it bad to start with is the right move? Every Republican President since Reagan (and that includes the pseudo-Republican Clinton) have been the main contributors to the decimation of the middle and working classes. They have dismantled and opposed any regulation on the financial players that devastated the world economy and almost broke it all to bits. These same financial banks and companies that managed to show record profits and give obscene pay and bonuses a year later, and who did on backs of the millions and millions of struggling Americans who are trying to survive in this morass these financial wizards created? Yeah, let’s elect them again!

    Nope!!! Not even close. Joe ‘Blowhard’ ScarBORING was very disliked in Congress and is still very disliked today. Guests on the morning show come on in spite of Joe Blowhard and Mika Airhead, many hoping to take over for Jow & Mika when Comcast gets rid of the two losers. Neither should open their big mouths about anything or anyone. Joe just flat out turns everyone off just like Chrissy Matthews and Lawrence O’Amngrydonell do too. As a Conservative Independent, I wish Sarah Palin would just fade into the sunset and let those who have entered run without her always showing up as though the world is supposed to bow down to her. Let her run for John McCain’s Senate seat in Arizona when he retires in another 100 years. No, scratch that. I want everyone in Washington DC including Obumbler, gone! America needs a restart. The bums there now are totally worthless. All of them.

    Well I was generally being realistic but the humor just comes to me naturally. So thanks! Also great advice. Quitting a job in hopes of being a full time comedian is a very risky career move. Not even some of the better comedians make close to Dane Cook money. But as a part time gig, or maybe for fun would be a good idea. You know, because like you said I’m like a genius. Also my point was solid, and enlightening. Funny, and right.

    While Palin is very popular among Republican voters there is little other comparison. Many people who support what she is doing now have no intention of voting for her. There is no comparison at all to the number of Palin “worshipers” who hang on her every word as there are for Obama.
    Also, Palin is thoroughly vetted and Obama still isn’t after all this time.
    Palin started to lose popularity as a candidate long before Obama and she wasn’t even in control of anything.

    Sarah owes it to her country, or at least her fans, to run. If she runs as a third party she definitely hands the win to Obama (who will likely win anyway) by splitting the conservative vote, so in the short run it would be damaging to the tea party interests, but long term it is the surest way for the tea party to have a continuing voice (since the republicans are at idealogical odds with them). However, if Perry pans out then Sarah will just broker this election and not run herself. (Well, unless she wants VP.)

    An important statistic nobody else has picked up on. Sarah Palin garnered no write-in votes. And this was after she took her stupid publicity tour to to the Iowa fair. Palin is a complete joke. In my estimation, the longer she flirts with running the worse she damages her brand. And for what reason would a nominee select her for VP again. LOL.

    VALKYRIE101: Your post below on Ms. Bachman, is certainly reasonable.  I just wanted to add that Conservative Republican candidates who are overtly Religious, tend to scare away more moderate voters, than they acquire by a desire for economic conservatism, etc.

    The Religious Conservative’s tend to argue that our Nation was founded on Christianity.  Such is a grotesque over generalization that is meant strictly to promote a Religio-Conservative position, not promulgate the true erudition, philosophy and religious inclinations of America’s Founders.   

    Being Religious and/or spiritual is one thing, imposing such on fellow citizens by way of Government, is the road to Religious despotism.

    Business men produce and sell widgets and
    other products. Governments are in charge of real people and their livelihoods.
    People can’t be treated like products and widgets and other products. We need a
    people president like Obama.
    Many business men trying to become President believe and have stated, a person
    who wishes to become President of the United States should have previously run
    some kind of a business, I believe the complete opposite is true and here is
    why. To run a business for profit, one must be focused to the point of being
    ruthless in many cases, such as if drugs, condoms, pornography, toxic material
    or anything that offends your religion or the religion or health of anyone
    being affected by what you produce and sell, spreading it through the various
    neighborhoods throughout America, for the benefit of your stock holders you
    must remember money and profits are the bottom line. This is why business is in
    trouble with society today like never before. Sending Jobs to China for Big
    Profits is another example of why decent people are not voting for the God
    Almighty Dollar. Businesses want to do business with Communist and Socialist
    but they don’t want our Government to be Communist or Socialist. Many
    Businesses thrive on using double standards but doesn’t want anyone else to use
    it, so they tell lies; most people see through this scheme. Because of America
    over the years of being indoctrinated into honesty, fairness and sacrifice for
    a bare decent living, they may be leaning towards Socialism. In fact I hear
    more and more people saying the thing the world needs is a little Capitalism
    seasoned with a little Socialism like China is starting to implement.
    Obama, who had a great deal of experience dealing with the neglected sector of
    our America, like all Governments have, and are many time rejected by most
    industries. They are still here and need dealt with. Industry refuses to deal
    with this sector of our economy, so most business owners and CEO”S of larger
    Corporate Conglomerates don’t have patience, or knowledge to cope with this
    part of America. Obama has that experience, he doesn’t have the back biting
    experience needed to deal with ruthless business men but he does have the
    advisors for that reason and if they aren’t getting the job done, he can
    acquire new and better equipped advisors. One thing for shore, naïve voters
    ignorant of what is really going on can easily choose a wrong president. They
    chose Hitler in Germany and look what a bunch of decent naïve people who voter
    wrong cause the entire world in the 1940’s

After only 2 1/2 years of Obama’s grotesque mismanagement of the nation’s fiscal health, the USA got the first credit DOWNGRADE in its history.

    Obi Wanna quit working the day he took his oath of office. He has been voting “present” ever since. Tell us how hard-working he is when you see his plan to restore the economy and cut the deficit. Oh, and let us know when you see him pass a budget. He could not manage that minimum responsibility even when he had large majorities in both houses of Congress.

    We would all have been better off if he had officially declined to serve and turned the job over to Slow Joe the day after he was sworn in. Instead, he has remained TOTUS, in name, anyway, while working on his jump shot and golf handicap.

    All I did was point out correlations that they both share. I was expecting to get a lot of whining from people on the left all pissy that I used real life factors to compare her to Obama. But it looks like the right is equally as whiny when you say something not spectacularly swell about their hero. I never said that she wasn’t justified in stepping down. What I said was that she did. I never said Obama wasn’t justified as well since I compared them both without any thing much more against one than the other. The media has been disgusting in their treatment of SP. In both their refusal to stop obsessing over her, and the hate pieces the left constantly throw her way. But that wasn’t the point. What was is how they both share many factors in common as competing politicians. But if you want to pretend others are pea brains then go right ahead. Its you who needs to stop being such a stubborn partisan, and assuming that everyone is in the same shit boat as you. One with a lot of true pea brains in it

    Oh, you know, the more practice you get at being in leadership, you usually get that much better.  However; that hasn’t been working these past 2 years.  He’s been present all right…..present on the golf course and behind closed doors with secret meetings to keep repub. out.  Honetly isn’t one of his virtues. You do know that’s how the Obamacare debockle got into law?  You just attach it to some other bill and sail it through.  that’s true honesty.  Then when the country is doing so poorly, you and your family go on vacation and make the taxpayers spent $50,000. per day for living quarters. That’s the kind of guy that worries about his country. That’s what a quitter really is.

    Since WHEN is “The Media” concerned with the “questionable ability to Govern”?

    WHERE was there probing the Teleprompter-in-chief’s EXPERIENCE?

    Obama:  Community Organizer
    Palin:  Governor (aka Chief Executive [albeit of a SMALL state]).

    We’re a COUNTRY in need of a PRESIDENT, not a Community in need of an ORGANIZER!

    I think Barack Obama is a VERY GOOD teleprompter reader (with the exception of pronouncing “Corpsman”), but that’s it!

    Oh, please, don’t make us wait for the video.  I’m so excited, I’m hoping you’ll tell us all what things happened in it.  it sounds like such a wonderful truthful-type video.  Aside from making us look silly, do please tell us now what is in it.

  • rightConcept

    Hey I am not one that was frothing at the mouth in excitement over those emails in the hopes of them finally proving the media caricature correct.

    Too bad they did just the opposite….lol. They proved that the media has lied all along. Too funny.

    MOST Conservatives DON’T HATE this President, we HATE his POLICIES (unfortunately Liberals can’t get past THEIR prejudices to comprehend the DIFFERENCE).

    Liberals see everything in terms of Race or Gender or Economic standing…

    Conservatives see everthing in terms of ABILITY and OPPORTUNITY.

    Conservatives demand EQUALITY of OPPORTUNITY – Liberals demand Equality of OUTCOME!

    Well, by golly we could get you something for that spinning head of yours.  Now where can I get some of that pixie dust.  It’s a fine thing,  “you betcha by golly”. Now where have i heard that before?  Spoken like a true American woman who doesn’t worry about wordly correctiveness.

    You know, those are all pretty good people…now what delusional situation are you talking about.

    If Sarah Palin and/or Michele Bachmann are SO BAD for the GOP, wouldn’t you expect Liberals to be ENCOURAGING them?

    WHY would you DISCOURAGE someone you think you can beat, from being your opponent?

    Perhaps, Democrats don’t believe they CAN beat Palin, Bachmann, etc.

  • Hagen619dj

    What?    I know you said something…but WHAT???

  • i420

    Where have you been that you’ve missed the never ending, from tongue in cheek remarks to genuine want…of all the people that wish the likes of Palin or Bachmann receive the GOP nomination?

  • Anonymous

    You are 100% correct…well stated!

  • i420

    I’ll just say, neither of them is qualified for the executive branch.

    Barack was missing in the Senate.  Joe had it right. 

    “TMP”

  • http://www.thefriendcenter.com/ SoThere

    They both have things in common.  Obama didn’t finish his term as Senator, Palin didn’t finish her term in Alaska.

     ”TMP”

  • Kiney_pie

    Oh, Joe!!!! She is NOT!!!!!! She is informed, educated, well spoken and clean…. oh, wait, Obama is “clean” too, says Joe. And another difference……. with Sarah it is NOT all about her….

    He also lied when he denied knowing who killed his secretary days before he suddenly resigned from Congress. He’s a murderer.

    Liberal translation: I can’t compete, it’s not fair, they must all be; “rascist, homophobic and sexist.” Look at my indignation. Mommy!

    Scarborough needs to ask Mika for his beanbag back and then maybe I might slightly consider something he says. Palin was the Governor of a huge state and she did a lot of good things. Barack shouldn’t have even been a Senator, only a republican scandal and Alan Keyes running made that possible. If you think Obama before 2008 had more qualifications than Palin in 2008, you are a retarded sexist douche.

  • Sandie

    He was a glorified State legislator. As a US Senator he was “present”, ie he took up space….LOL

  • Republicans are Liars

    You are so right! A Palin/Bachman ticket would be really tough to beat. I am sure Obama would lose to that as he would lose to a Perry/Bachman ticket. That would probably be best for the Repubicans. I sure hope they realize where their strengths are this year. Yea Baby! Perry/Bachman 2012 We could never beat that one.

  • Republicans are Liars

    President Obama has done a great job running this country in the face or Republican obstructionists. You can see what 8 months of a Republican controlled house has brought – nothing. They can’t even agree amongst themselves let alone put anything forward. Rest assured that the Republican economic policies will put us into a depression. This is real simple so I think you might understand this… when you take billions of dollars out of the economy that is going to translate into millions of lost jobs. Raise TAXES. It is the only way out of the mess.

  • Wpace81196

    he made it to the senate in 06 by 07 he was running for president full time.   thats not much experience and yes, it shows big time.

    Scarborough is nothing but a sellout. He belongs on MSNBC.

  • RecoveringTeabagger

    Get ready for one angry tweet Joe. If you’re lucky Palin won’t go further and complain to one of her friends at Fox News.

  • Anonymous

    Wrong!  Ms Palin had held jobs, did a great job as governor but had to quit because of the Lefts sick ways, that were distracting her from doing her job as governor and the sick Leftist were costing taxpayers money with their idiotic trashing.  The Left is deaf to their evil ways, that is why they will crash and burn in 2012!  Ms Palin has more brains in her snot than Obama has in his head!

  • Mukal2000

    The reason that the USA lost it’s AAA rating was because of nutjobs from the teabagger party.  When the dems controlled the house senate and whitehouse, we kept that rating but when you folks elected know nothing republican to the house and their threats to tank the full faith and credit of the USA, it is then that our rating went down.  President Obama had nothing to do with the rating drop.

  • Anonymous

    Obama is the candidate of “More.” More war, more unemployment, more taxes, more debt, more government, and more guns for the Mexican drug gangs. Palin is not the candidate of “More.” That is a huge difference.

  • Anonymous

    You would get an “F” in economics. Raising taxes takes “billions of dollars out of the economy.” The same economic theories that say cutting spending would translate into lost jobs say that higher taxes translate into lost jobs. (The opposite is not true–there are economic theories that say that cuts in taxes will increase employment, but do not imply that increased government spending would raise employment.)

  • Republicans are Liars

    You will get an F in common sense. As has been reportedtrillions of dollars are sitting in corporate coffers doing no one any good. Extract those dolars in taxes and spend them and get people to work.

  • Steelerallstar

    Hey Goober, it wasn’t the “Black dude” that caused the lowering of our rating..it was a bunch of crazy white people aka old mean white men and women who hate the “black dude”…get a grip and stop talking nonsense…

    Yes. The majority religion scares me when it is mixed with politics. The concept of saying “God (Allah, Yahweh, humanism) prefers my party” is sickening. However, no matter what you think, Jesus’s ideas were definitely closer to Democratic ideas. And that’s from an agnostic atheist (we’ll never know, but I don’t believe there is a god); so yes, I do have a stake in not having the dominant religion be discussed. However, if I lived in an atheistic-majority society, I would insist that the schools, government, etc be tilted towards including all religions. Yet a significant number of Christians that routinely attend church often disagree with this idea. That’s sad.
