    How about that Sarah Palin?
    Hello:

    Love her or hate her, she's a force to be reckoned with. Did you buy her book?

    I think she could be president in 2012. Palin/Cheney. What a ticket? (Which Cheney do you think I'm talking about?)

    I don't want her book, really, no interest to me, but I will say one thing for the woman, she has a lot of moxy and therefore interesting to a degree because you don't know what she will say or do next.

    I intend to buy her book . And I watch in amusement as the lapdog media do their best to try to discredit her.
    They are playing their role well.
    As they try to diminish Palin they accomplish exactly the opposite. Their ploy is self defeating. She gets stronger with every gratuitous attack.

    yes, even McCain and the people who worked on the Republican campaign are descrediting her - it's a bi-partisan effort! :D

    Mark my words, she will do more damage to the conservatives than, well, actually I can't think of anything to compare her to.

    Palin almost pulled McCain over the finish line. McCain's handlers are acting like the losers they are. They don't want to hear the truth about their marshmallow effort.

    Hello again, NK:

    Minor correction. She'll do more damage to the Republican party than she will to conservatives.. The tea baggers love her.

    Palin and Michele Bachmann will make a nice duet.

    Oh, you are funny ! Don't misunderestimate her. That would be a stretch of the imagination. She didn't even know where Ontario was !

    Were you saying that 'tongue in cheek' ?

    Tick ;and President ObaMao thought there were 57 States in the US .

    I believe Excon was being quite serious. I hope people do misunderestimate her. And I hope the deranged attack on her by the lame stream media continues . She draws strength from that.

    Already ;before the book was officially released ,it was the highest selling non-fiction book of the year. A secnd printing is already underway.

    Back to Excon's comments. There are a lot of Republican congressional and state candidates that are going to owe big IOUs to her after the 2010 election. She may or may not be a candidate for the Presidency in 2012 .But if not she will have tremendous influence on who will be candidate ,and what platform the national ticket adopts. Excon knows it . The liberal bloggers like Huffpo and the Kossaks know it . The pundits on liberal cable shows know it ,the dinosaur media elites know it . AND most important ;the Rockefeller RINO wing of the Republican party knows it... and it scares the hell out of them.

    Hi, tom, well she certainly made a splash, I will say that. She knows where to place her feet and the thing is, she is stronger now knowing who her detractors are. I know, you know more about this then I do, it s okay. I just find the whole thing amusing and am following the show and how it plays out in the media,

    Did you see the tabloid like cover picture Newsweek used in their attack expose issue of her ? She is dressed in joggers gym shorts .They lifted it off a sport runners magazine Runner's World evidently without permission. It was completely appropriate for the magazine that she posed for. But ,it was low class journalism for a supposedly serious News Magazine to use it without her permission ;and something they would never dare to do to any other public servant .It was a cheap trick . The kind of cheap tricks she has been exposed to since she became a national figure.

    Poor poor girl. I hope she doesn't quit because of it. I look forward to her eventual Playboy spread.

    And why is her book being bought?

    She is pretty (her most hugest asset), has good body language and facial expressions, engages with her interviewer, and appears to care deeply about her children. Now, if only she would count to five before answering a question and think before she speaks, if she'd study up on world history and civics, she could be "the one" in 2012.

    But she's not a public servant. She's allowed herself to be up for grabs.
