A few points. Obama WILL be the Dem nominee unless some dickweasel assassinates him. Get real. The Dems are not above sacrificing one of their own for the good of the "cause". Sorry about the tinfoil stuff. Palin's greatest challenge will be overcoming the Republican machine she seems so desperately to want to be a part of. If they don't destroy her in the primaries, she could beat Obama today. Third, the economy ain't currently tanking. It is slowly gaining. There are lots of people out of work though, and that ain't getting better. They vote. If the economy keeps coming around or even gains a bit more momentum, then the election will turn probably not on who the Reps run against the National Lawn Jockey, but on which party is able to steal the credit from the other for the perceived turnaround. This is assuming the Reps make a significant gain in tomorrow's elections.

I'm not sure Palin would make a good President. I think she would definitely be successful as a VP. This latter has nothing to do with the original question though.



The original question posed is that IF Sarah gets the nomination.

I posted this in the first half of the thread:

Let Sarah throw her huntin� cap in the ring.
She is always speechifying that primaries and elections are about competition and the cream rising to the Top.

So let Sarah Sledgehammer go for it.
Don�t tell me she hasn�t paid her dues-several times over.

Let her put her Baggage up against Mittens Romneycare, Uncle Newt�s ex-wives, Rev.-I mean Gov. Huck�s tax record and so on.

Her ideas against their ideas at the so-called debates.

And her core values against�.never mind-she wins that one-hands down.

And later I asked why so many on this thread don�t want Sarah to even try.
Are they afraid that their own Hero will lose to her?
I see no reason that the Little OL� Hockey Mom from Wasilla should step outa the Ring and forfeit the fight with the record she has.

And that includes her record on tearing up the Republican Machine-she could care less.
Sarah is fearless and will take anyone-any Machine that doesn�t hold with her core values.

I believe I offered this bet before with no takers:

$100.00 says she does not seek the nomination.
$100.00 says if she does run she will not be nominated.
$100.00 says that if she does run she will not be elected.

These bets are for the 2012 US Presidential election. This is an all or nothing deal you must take all the bets. Settlement will be after the results of the 2012 Presidential election are certfied.

Any takers?


She might wait til 2016.
I'd take your bet but I alraeady have a similar one with Trips.

BTW, where is Trips? Anybody seen him last few days?



2016 is too far out to even guess but if she is in the hunt I'd give her consideration. By that time she should have many millions to spend on a campaign.

If she is really serious about a Presidential bid she must run and get elected to some national office in some state and complete her term with a strong Conservative record.

Obama is NOT going to be easy to knock off in 2012. Even if Obama was impeached and convicted he would get the nomination and win. We all know that Obama is an illegal president and he is still president.

It will take an extraordinary extra special Republican to knock off Obama in 2012 and I don't see one on the horizon.

I'll say again, I believe little o will have NO limelight left by the time the dem nomination process begins and he'll quietly slink off into the shadows. The exceeding greatness of his nothingness will surely have fully manifested by then.

If that happens Team D will put up the beasty bitch and I wouldn't be surprised if Team R answers with the lovely Alaskan mama griz.

It's a very real possibility.

I agree Spano, I'd like to see Sarah with more experience but not sure it's really necessary. She's a freight train gaining momentum daily. At the same time the liberal left and lefty media loose momentum daily. Teeter totter effect. Up, up, up she goes.

Optimism, hopefully, will get you everything.

Me, I'm a firm believer that Murphy was an optimist.

Can Palin beat Obama in 2012 if she gets the nomination?

Asking NOW how qualified someone WILL BE LATER is a lot like the guy asking the doctor �

"Will I be able to play the piano when you get this cast off my arm?"

"Yes, of course you can."

"Great! I never could before!"


"Good enough" isn't.

Yeah Spanky..........we got ya' the first thousand times you said it!!

BTW, what happened to adressing Sarah Palin as "perky"?

Did you finally wake up and realize how trite that was begining to sound?

Now all you have to do is comprehend what Sarah Palin stands for and realize that it has little or nothing to do with winning a stupid election.

It's all about flushing all the stiff necked, inside the beltway, handshake across the asile, RINOS out of the system and allowing a starry eyed, dyed in the wool Conservative with middle American values like Sarah Palin represent our party for once.

As someone once said........no matter how many times the Democrats got their azz kicked, they continued to run far left liberals for office until they finally got one elected to the Presidency.

Why shouldn't we do the same with Conservatives??

And for that matter, why shouldn't we do the same with "Mrs. Palin"???

Sure she can, the left is doing what they are doing to her because she can. She has to be gotten rid off. As for Lt.Col West, I have no problem voting for him in a NYC second. And yea I have no problem putting a gun to terrorist heads, and I would go one further on that the trigger will be pulled. The left tells us which one of our guys they fear and then take out, just look at what happened to George Allen. Now if there was real justice, Lt. Col West would not be running for congress, he would be a Lt. General now running the War in Afghanistan and he would be crushing the enemy. But he is running for Congress and with luck will be in the Congress you don't always get every thing you want.

I hope not.
The first $100 is OK maybe 50:50 maybe even more in my favor betting on Palin.
The second $100 is a sucker bet-if there are 10 candidates-there are 9 ways you can win and only one way I can win.
To bet the third $100 I have to bet against the incumbent-what odds are you giving?

� Alternate question � just as logical to ask �

Will Obama be the Demo'rat candidate for President in 2012?

and

� Will Guy Neuheyer be the CEO of GM in 20???

� Will Newly Bourne graduate summa cvm laude from Harvard twenty-two years after the midwife whacks him on his butt?

� Will Bridy Sweet divorce Manly Justmet ten years after he shoves his ring onto her finger?

I do; Lieutenant Colonel Allen West. He would take at least 50% or more of the 'hope/change' idiot vote from Barry.
The question is, will he run, and will the party back him?
This nation deserved someone like West as our first black president, not what we wound up with.

The chances that Palin will run for anything are small. She is doing a great job running around the country fanning the flames of fear and hate, damn fine cheerleader!

The other problem with her running and getting elected for anything is she would have to stay in one spot and do her job. Fat chance of that happening! All of the noise coming from Palin is just noise with out any solutions or the fortitude to work hard enough at a issue long enough to see it through. Sarah has a short attention span.

Yes she did! I still think she did a great job for her first 12-15 months and then she got star struck and lost her back bone. But she sure made lots of money! She likes her cash way too much to run.

ABC News -- November 1

Sarah Palin Endorses Third Party Gubernatorial Candidate Tom Tancredo

Sarah Palin has once again bucked the Republican party and endorsed Tom Tancredo, the former GOP congressman-turned-American Constitution Party candidate who earned the ire of the establishment by waging his own third party campaign.
Palin taped a recorded message for Tancredo, though she didn't endorse him on Facebook and Twitter, as she normally does.
"Tom is the right man for the job and he'll fight for lower taxes," Palin said. "He'll stop growing government and start growing the economy, and we know he'll continue to work to end illegal immigration."
Listen to the recording HERE.
Tancredo has also been endorsed by another Republican, Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota.
The former congressman has made immigration the central feature of his campaign, arguing for tougher measures against illegal immigration and an Arizona-style law.
Republicans blame him for splitting the vote and tampering the chances of GOP candidate Dan Maes, who refused to drop out of the race despite Tancredo's repeated calls.
