It must rankle The Victim that The Brain dismisses her as a viable candidate.

I certainly hope she runs. It could be the genesis of thousands of new jokes.

Memo to Matt Schneider: This might be the worst attempt at a troll post in Internet history.

You’re such a “classy” guy Matt.

Sorry but, I’m with Bob Cesca. She doesn’t really speak English.

“During an appearance on “America’s Nightly Scoreboard” on Fox Business on Friday night, she said, “See because our president is so inexperienced in the private sector and in government and in actually running anything and making any kind of budget that inexperience has really made manifest in some of the statements he makes.”

This from a person who clearly has very little experience speaking English.

Yeah, and that’s a bigtime word salad. “making any kind of budget that inexperience has really made manifest in some of the statements he makes?!”

I dare you to diagram that sentence. I’m not sure it can be done.”

She’s a complete embarrassment. The entire world is laughing at us.

I don’t like her……BUT there is no way that she could be as bad as what we have in office now.

Sarah is waiting in the wings for that 5pm time slot once Glenn Beck leaves. She will have her own show on Fox!!!

You got that right. Obama has proven to be a joke. Every dictator in the world thinks he is a weakling. If we don’t get rid of him next year, N. Korea will invade the South because they believe Obama will do nothing. Iran will attack Israel because they KNOW Obama will do nothing.

Matt, we don’t need your advice as to who should run for president. I am sure whoever runs the be the subject of lies by the media and ignorant fools like box of rocks here.

Mitch Daniels has NO baggage but that won’t stop the libs from making up some.

IS this a troll post? I don’t know Schneider’s style.

Sarah and Obama both get attention when they speak, but Obama’s statements gets higher level response/debate on the ideas (or boilerplate rejections from ignorant critics), while response to Sarah’s comments is either unrelated, disjointed defense from her supporters, or total ridicule from normal people – you never hear anyone debating Sarah’s ideas because there are never details (though I’m about to read her take on entitlement programs) .

Here is Sarah’s latest immature, petty barb – sounds like it comes from a 3rd grader (no offense to 3rd graders):
“You know, Kathy Griffin can do anything to me or say anything about me, because you know, she’s kind of this; she’s a 50-year-old adult bully is really what she is,”

Defending a family member from a bully is acting like a 3rd grader? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I think everyone can agree that Sarah’s mouth often outruns her brain. If she truly wanted to appear Presidential, she would say things like “that is incorrect” rather than “they lie”, or “that is not a good situation for my kids” rather than “that sucks for my kids”.

And to the quote about American Idol contestants examined in another thread, there is no difference between the Idol contestants aspiring to stardom than it is for her daughter to do so, but she thinks they are lame. Oddly, the top two or three contestants on Idol stand a pretty good chance of getting a recording contract. Bristol just got a wad of cash in exchange for use of her name and mom showing up to boost ratings…

Nonetheless….RUN SARAH RUN!

She is NO Reagan.

Despite the above posts, keep in mind that the left is still the sensitive and compassionate side.

It looks like we have a paradox on our hands. Possibly the candidate who will be most successful at a presidential run and could also be the biggest failure.

Palin has a lot of changing to do a very very very very (did I say very?) short amount of time if her presidential bid is going to be taken seriously. She will never change the minds of the left but if she can change the minds of independents and convince them she is the right person for the job she will be ok.

But for Palin this is much easier said than done. She has plenty of gaffes and screw ups in her time in the national stage a lot to answer for. She needs to take care of those things pronto. This is going to be the biggest uphill climb in politics (Mount Everest huge), if she can pull it off she is going to have possibly the most legendary political campaign in history.

Obama is destroying this Country. Cap & tax, Obamacare, as gas climbs to $5.00 a gallon the Obama Administration continues to block oil production.

He’s an idiot……

I’ve now been in 57 states — I think one left to go.

“Corpse-Man”

“…Ten thousand people died — an entire town destroyed”

” Isreal is a strong friend of Israel”

“Fallen heroes — and I see many of them in the audience here today.”

“The Middle East is obviously an issue that has plagued the region for centuries.”

Just a few of Obama’s greatest hits…..LOL

I’d think with Matt’s track record, he’d spend more time correcting previous stories (see the WWI story from yesterday, where he left out key facts in favor of left-wing spin), then trying to come up with new theories.

When it comes to politics and journalism, it appears that Matt is unfamiliar with either. In short, I don’t think you’re qualified to recommend anything to anyone.

Well, if you want to get TECHNICAL about it…….

You also appear to not grasp the English language. “Workout” is a noun that you have used improperly. Beetter choices would have been, “I’m going to work out” and “Now off to really work out.” Sorry. :(

“Karl Rove continuing to dismiss her as nothing more than a reality television star.” Only thing Karl and I agree on.

Alas, wrote “beeter.” I deserve it for stooping to such a petty level. Drats. It appears instant karma is real after all.

I have my own selfish reason for hoping that Sarah Palin runs for President…to be the sacrificial lamb who draws all the fire from the pro-Obama media.

We all know, far-left or conservative, that 90% of the media, the “pro-Obama” media, is going to set out to destroy all of Obama’s opponents and clear the field for him, just as they did in 2008. With Sarah Palin in the mix, the pro-Obama media will fixate on her and demonize her, and perhaps then one of the Repub candidates will actually survive the primary without most of the country hating his guts and wanting to kill his children. Then at least he or she will have a fighting chance during the general election.

It isn’t going to be libruls who doom Gov. Palin.

And it ain’t going to be the media that gets her.

It’ll be Republicans in the primary process.

You right leaning guys…be honest…you know this, right?

Remember the whisper campaigns about McCain’s black kid? You don’t think that is coming from inside the machine? You know deep in your heart that the Republican party will end this candidacy. And if they do it cleverly (which they will) most of you will be convinced that the NY Times, George Soros, and whatever new bogeyman (maybe Justin Timberlake–whatever) consipred to make it happen.

I actually think you are good, thoughtful and decent people. I just don’t trust the professional operatives who are taking advantage of that part of your personalities.

Anyway, feel free to call me a librul now.

No – I merely didn’t put it in sentence form. I didn’t improperly use the term – I just didn’t form a full sentence around it. If you look at my prior message, I used the term correctly. If you would like me to nitpick you that much, I will. It will be far too entertaining though. :)

Mitch Daniels has NO baggage but that won’t stop the libs from making up some.

Did you actually just say that Mitch Daniels has no baggage??? Wow, gotta love uninformed teabaggers!

The Daily Princetonian reports:

After Mitch Daniels ’71 was arrested, indicted and convicted on charges of drug use as an undergraduate in May 1970, he said that he thought his aspiring political career was doomed. “Any goal I might have had for competing for public office were shot,” he told The Daily Princetonian in September 1988.

More than 20 years later, Daniels, now the governor of Indiana, has proved his own nay-saying wrong, emerging as a national political figure that many speculate will make a run for the Republican presidential nomination in 2012. His four years at Princeton, most prominently marked by the legal problems of his junior year, reveal a complicated man that bridged seeming contradictions in both his academic and extracurricular lives.

Perhaps the most pivotal day of Daniels’ four years at Princeton was May 14, 1970 — the day of the drug arrest that Daniels thought would sully his political future. Officers found enough marijuana in his room to fill two size 12 shoe boxes, reports of the incident say. He and the other inhabitants of the room were also charged with possession of LSD and prescription drugs without a prescription. Daniels and his two roommates in 111 Cuyler Hall, Marc Stuart ’71 and Richard Stockton ’71, were arrested and, after plea bargaining, Daniels eventually escaped with a $350 fine for “maintaining a common nuisance.” The charges against Stockton were eventually dropped.

According to Stuart’s account of the incident, while he and Daniels were certainly guilty of possession of marijuana, it was the activities of a former roommate — Steve Harris ’71 — that gave the police an excuse to search their room.

Harris did not respond to a request for comment.

“Unbeknownst to us, [Harris] was hanging on campus and was coming back there and using the room when we’re not there and was involved with drugs much worse than pot,” Stuart said in an interview last week. “We considered ourselves innocent victims. We were just sitting there partying.”

Daniels said he did not agree with the assessment of innocence.

“I don’t make excuses for anything. Justice was served,” he said in an interview on Monday. “I had used marijuana and I was fined for that, and that was appropriate,” he explained..

Sarah will be a great president.

Weak sauce Schneider. Try as hard as you want, but you’ll never beat “In Defense of Sarah Palin” in the weeks after Tucson… THAT was a first ballot Hall of Famer (it’ll be in the second paragraph of your obit)!!!! This nonsense isn’t even 3rd or 4th ballot material. Try harder, otherwise Ailes will never offer you that coveted position of Doocey and Kilmeade’s towel boy!!

If Sarah were to run, the left might start talking badly about her. As it is, she’s totally irrelevant, and that’s why they never mention her.

I like Mitch Daniels. He is a mature grown up. And while I may not agree with his politics, I like his approach and wish he were sitting at the table.

But no baggage? Really?

He did kind of nlow it as Bush’s budget guy. I mean he was a wee bit off on the costs of the Iraq war.

Doesn’t mean he isn’t a good and smart guy. And maybe he would be a great President.

But no baggage???? Come on Gordo. Even you aren’t that narrowly focused in your view.

The Obimbo Press has done a good job demonizing Ms.Palin. A run in 2012 is not likely. I’d rather see her support a conservative candidate that is relatively untouched by Obimbo’s goon squad. We have a huge number of qualified conservative candidates to replace Barrack “voting present” Obimbo. It’s abundantly clear that we cannot endure four more years of this inept president and his equally inept administration.

Ms. Palin has done an exceptional job at creating the circumstances in which to allow for humorous and derisive commentary since she came onto the stage in the Fall of 2008. We all know Teh Quitter will not run for President or even Vice President in 2012. Her favorables have pretty much declined as her exposure has increased.

To most of the GOP, she’s a stinker = see the Roves of the world. They certainly appreciate her zest and fundraising ability, but she’s a toxic asset. She simply doesn’t have it in her to actually improve as a national candidate. And why? She’s making plenty of $$ now doing her schtick.

And the GOP doesn’t have a huge number of qualified candidates:
Newt? Romney? Huckabee? Pawlenty? Christie? Bachmann? Huntsman? Santorum?

Do you really want to talk about family values, flip flopping, veiled racism, no charisma, crazy/stupid, fat&loud dude, another mormon and someone whose name is now literally a (sexual) neologism?

My dream ticket for the GOP would be Palin/Bachmann. Oh, the crazy/stupid times we could have with those two!

Palin has done a very good job of marginalizing herself. She is an idiot and that’s why you relate to her so well. “The Obimbo press”…LMAO!! You really are a moron and an asshole.

Palin is a case of “sit back and wait for the trainwreck”. She has a petty streak a mile wide and an “I want” line that has no beginning and no end. I hope Todd gets a nice snowmobile rig out of this deal, so he can disappear into the wilderness and recoup his sanity.

The kids? Collateral damage. Instead of shielding them, she puts them out there like a sideshow.

You reap what you sow.

I forgot to say I still want her to run. Between her, the tea party, the moderates and the harddick righties, you have a party in disarray.

You want 4 more years of barry boy then go ahead and have her run. He is going to be very difficult to beat and many of us know she cannot beat him. The more she opens her mouth the more imcompetent she appears. We need Herman Cain and Allen West or Rubio or may Chris Christie will still change his mind. no sarah, don’t run!!

Since Sarah Palin would never capture enough of the independent vote she would lose as they would turn,reluctantly,to Obama.

Look,I know Palin makes for good TV and online buzz and probably puts money in the pockets of writers like the one here,but she can’t win so this article by implication is an endorsement for Obama.

Palin seems to have more courage and fidelity to Republican principles of good government than nearly all other Republican possibilities, excepting perhaps Herman Cain and Donald Trump. Romney might shed his Massachusetts compulsory medical insurance baggage, but only with difficulty.

Jeb Bush, Huckabee, Gingrich and Bachmann have made some bad missteps lately.

But no Republican has a chance unless exhaustive official investigations are run on the Obama mess. If the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth about Obama are exposed, it will be painfully apparent why he kept so much concealed. It could prevent his renomination. It could result in impeachment and removal from office. But RINO House leadership has given him a pass, the House Oversight Chairman refusing to take even the initial, threshold action of subpoenaing Obama’s original birth certificate.

Dr. Charles E. Rice, Professor Emeritus at the University of Notre Dame, has called for congressional investigation of the Obama mess. He says:

“. . . it is fair to say that the Obama controversy involves significant issues of fact and law that deserve some sort of official resolution.

“I suggest no conclusion as to whether Obama is eligible or not. But the citizens whom the media and political pundits dismiss as “birthers” have raised legitimate questions. That legitimacy is fueled by Obama”s curious, even bizarre, refusal to consent to the release of the relevant records. Perhaps there is nothing to the issues raised. Or perhaps there is. This is potentially serious business. If it turns out that Obama knew he was ineligible when he campaigned and when he took the oath as President, it could be the biggest political fraud in the history of the world. As long as Obama refuses to disclose the records, speculation will grow and grow without any necessary relation to the truth. The first step toward resolving the issue is full discovery and disclosure of the facts.

“The courts are not the only entities empowered to deal with such a question. A committee of the House of Representatives could be authorized to conduct an investigation into the eligibility issue.”

The states should also investigate. They appoint the presidential electors. Legislatures, attorneys general, secretaries of state and auditors have the power to investigate Obama’s misrepresentation of his personal and racial identity and his ineligibility, probably by becoming an Indonesian citizen. This is probably a case not only of ineligibility but a sedition case as well. Obama could be representing Islamic interests that are concealing his Indonesian citizenship, instead of the people who elected him. As the congressional RINOs are shirking their duty, the last hope for official investigations might be the states.

Dude, nothing to worry about.

Palin is going to run. Ailes didn’t cut the cord with her and the Huckster because they are two moneymakers for FOX. Sarah doesn’t have to do anything until she files, then she can send her LOA letter to Ailes. If she wins, great, Ailes has an “in” at the White House. If she loses, she comes back as a senior commentator like Newt.

There’s no downside in it for FOX. None whatsoever. Nor is there any for Palin. Not that the paid Obamist bootlickers at Politico and NY Magazine don’t enjoy making stuff up now and again to help out Obama.

At least they get paid for it.
