Quote
Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, the 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee, says she hopes to run for office again and is urging GOP leaders to have "more guts" as they pursue their agenda.

Palin said in an interview with Fox Business Network on Tuesday that she is invigorated by her critics, who make her "want to work so hard for justice in this country."

Perhaps she can start by expanding her vocabulary and not sounding like a female version of Bob and Doug Mackenzie.

I swear, the more she's in the public eye, the cheaper and dumber she appears. She didn't look this airheaded in 2008. What is going on with her?

This sounds like a trial balloon.

She has made it a point to have an entertainment career, targeted towards a deep but narrow and loud audience.

IMO she has NOT lived up to her full potential. Had she taken a more broad approach, not just diehard Tea Party views, and worked on her vocabulary and delivery, she had more potential.  As it is, with resigning then brawling in Alaskan summertimes, she is limited.

But as with so many of these types, the occasional threat to run for office, keeps their careers going.

And on the same day the radical Commie Van Jones tries to sell us on the notion that the "DEMS were scared to death of her".


Uh-huh, sure.

They're begging her to enter as a candidate once again.

Agreed.  She would be eviscerated.  She would not hold up well and the party would look silly.

 The cashflow into SarahPAC must be slowing to a trickle.  Time to gin up some interest among the 50-something males that are still hot over her.

At this point, is there any doubt that if Palin looked like Barbara Mikulski, she'd be a speck in everybody's rear-view mirror (especially those Cialis-d up males who ain't gettin' any at home)?

What was it that her PAC gave to candidates?

Wasn't about 5% of what it took in?

If Palin really wants to make herself useful, she can do this:

To 50-something males Sarah Palin is their fantasy woman.  She is easy on the eyes and can field dress a dead caribou.  On the other hand, her voice is grating and has a tendency to rub people the wrong way.  (Some people may give her a gold star for that.  I do not).

In 2008, she was being managed by campaign people. Now she's running her own show.

If she ran for my state's Parks and Recreation commissioner, as a hunter, I'd vote for her without reservation.

She loves America, and we have an illustrated calender.

Nice gal. Nice face. Great guns.
"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn
