She may be further ahead not running for President and continuing to do other endeavors. Yes, I watch her show from time to time. Who doesn't like watching a decent looking women shoot guns with the beautiful back drop of Alaska. Beats watching the Biggest slob or the Un-amazing Race or a Presidential speech.

Dick Morris hasn't been a democrat for years; get with the program.

I do wish Palin well should she decide to run but I see her as the one candidate like no other that could give BO a second term. Is that what some of you really want?


Odd that if she doesn't have the support of independents and moderates she sure got a lot of them to vote for candidates she endorsed, both in primaries and general elections. Had to read a book for a college statistics class titled "How to Lie with Statistics". Quite appropriate for many of the various polls.

T Baggers, huh? Wow! Never figured you that way.

Is that slimey criminal Reed running for President? Will the race be decided in Las Vegas, or even Nevada? Is Angle the candidate being discussed? Somehow I don't see much connection, except that maybe you threw in the towel before the race was over.


We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?

All I know is that Dick Morris claims to (still) be a Democrat. Can you show me where he claims to be a Republican? If so I will gladly accept it.

Those "luminaries" you belittle were put forward as endorsers of Palin. Like it or not those luminaries are a lot more influential than you and I will ever be.

I would like to know your source for Morris claiming to still be a Democrat.
My look-up produced no statements of Registered anything.
But my look-ups often do not produce anything.

The way Morris has always worked both sides�I doubt that he can afford to join either party officially.

Unofficially is a whole different ball game.

In 1994 he worked for both Bill Clinton and Trent Lott. Several other Repubs since.
And Bill Clinton has said, in effect, that Morris is a slime ball, but he is my slime ball and I need him.
I think it is fair to characterize Morris as more anti-Clinton than anti-Democrat after their big break-up. He hates Hillary�s guts!

But after Obama; it has been all anti-Liberal and pro-Tea Party.
What he also said during his speechifying this past year in that he is born again republican because he hates Hilary and Hussein. And a born-again Christian.

7/16/2010 By Leslie Jorgensen THE COLORADO STATESMAN
Calling himself a former Democrat and atheist, political consultant and author Dick Morris told several hundred conservatives there�s salvation for America�s economic crisis � elect hard core Republicans to regain control of the U.S. Senate and House.
[�]
During the 1996 National Democratic Convention in Chicago, a supermarket tabloid story alleged Morris had had an affair with a call girl. He denied the assertion, but promptly resigned as a political advisor on President Bill Clinton�s re-election campaign.
�I was baptized as a Christian in 1997,� Morris told the breakfast crowd in the Denver Marriott South�s Park Ridge ballroom. �So when people say you switched parties, I say under my breath, you don�t know the half of it.�

Morris worked hard for the Tea Party and I�m sure made a lot of money doing so this past election.
And he claims a lot of credit for the victory just as he did during the Clinton years:

�In the races where I was directly involved with the candidates and campaigns, we won the following 28 Congressional races, all takeaways from the Democrats: (asterisk denotes districts where I personally campaigned)
Nan Hayworth, New York*
Tom Marino, Pennsylvania*
Lou Barletta, Pennsylvania
Mike Fitzpatrick, Pennsylvania
Robert Hurt, Virginia*
Scott Rigell, Virginia*
Morgan Griffith, Virginia
Mike Keown, Georgia
Austin Scott, Georgia
Sandy Adams, Florida*
Dan Webster, Florida*
David Rivera, Florida*
Steve Palazzo, Mississippi*
Alan Nunnelee, Mississippi*
Tim Griffin, Arkansas*
Rick Crawford, Arkansas*
Francisco Canseco, Texas
Steve Pearce, New Mexico*
David Harmer, California*
Scott Tipton, Colorado*
Cory Gardiner, Colorado*
Randy Hultgren, Illinois*
Todd Young, Indiana*
Sean Duffy, Wisconsin*
Jim Renacci, Ohio
Bob Gibbs, Ohio*
Bill Johnson, Ohio*

We lost a few, too: Sam Caligiari, CT, Dan Dibecella, CT, John Gomez, NY, Frank Becker, NY, Tim Burns, Pa, Beth Anne Rankin, Arkansas, Ryan Frazier, Colorado, Tom Ganley, Ohio, and Brad Zaun, Iowa.
Each of these men and women has a special place in my heart. They worked their tails off and deserved to win!
In addition, I also advised Super PAC (superpacusa.com) on its independent expenditures in 23 other districts. In these, I had no personal contact with the candidate or the campaigns, but through Super PAC and your generosity, we produced and ran television ads and/or made robo calls into these districts. We won eleven of these races. Without your help, we would not have been able to help elect these new House members:
Paul Gosar, Arizona
Ben Quayle, Arizona
David Schweikert, Arizona
Steve Sutherland, Florida
Raul Labrador, Idaho
Tim Walberg, Michigan
Chip Cravaack, Minnesota
Michael Grimm, NY
Richard Hanna, NY
Scott DesJarlis, Tenn
Reid Ribble, Wisconsin
That means there would, literally, be five to ten fewer House victories had you not helped our Super PAC efforts.
So, in all, we�ve been involved in 40 of the 65 House takeaways, either directly with the campaigns or independent of them.
Thank you for your wonderful, magnificent, ongoing help! Sorry we bugged you so often, but it was worth it. Wasn�t it?�

How does quoting a poll or polls that got it wrong make me or you off the mark?
Or, on the mark, if a poll gets it right?

I just said and still say the only poll that mattered was back on Nov. 2 and it was a big victory for both the Tea Party and Governor Palin.

They could not have done it without pulling in the moderate/independent voters.
And that they did do.

You Betcha, with landslide numbers and as I posted in my OP it is shaping up for bigger and better in 2012.

One "previous statements " you HAVN'T made - and this is the third time on this thread I've asked the question - who should we support , if not Sarah Darlin' ?

Who among the Republicans can beat Obama ? Remember , close don't count .

You claim we - the unwashed masses - will be handing the victory to Obama if we nominate Palin .

So ........ who can we nominate that can beat Obama ?

Pretty simple question , really .

I just said it to see the neck hackle rise.

Actually, I went to the rallies and held up my signs, too, so I'm one of those "Tea Baggers". wink

I didn't throw in any towel; she was a lost cause from the start. We have lived with her nonsense for years and knew what we had as a candidate all along. She had a lot of negatives, as does Palin.

I deeply believe in what the Tea Party says, but I don't agree on certain of their backed candidates as potential winners.

That is my only point here. Palin would be GREAT....if she could win. I don't see it happening.

Since Spanky won't answer , I'll ask YOU ; If not Sarah Darlin' .... then who ?

I think Spanky and the rest of the "pros" who complain about Sarah are really just frustrated because they can't dream up an alternative . I don't think the GOP can nominate "generic republican" .

dog,

I don't see anyone rising to the top yet. Why the hll should there be already? The election isn't next month. wink

I really think this debate is moot...she is too dmned smart to want to be president. She's making too much $$ and would take a real hit in income. I also believe her family life is far too important to go on the campaign trail again.

I think we need to start looking seriously at alternatives who have plenty of positives. It just makes sense.

I'm one that thinks Sarah can't beat Obama .But neither can Huckabee or Gingrich .

I personally think Romney needs to do whatever it takes to redeem himself in the eyes of the Tea Party and he needs to do it quickly .

The longer all the rest of them wait , the more it makes Sarah the kingmaker .

And she might just decide to crown herself !

Don't get me wrong - I think she could handle the job as president [ like ol' Kinky said about being Governor ; "How hard can it be?" ] as well as any of the other likely ones .

One thing that scares me about all the pres. candidates of both parties that we have had in recent years is this :

None of them seem to doubt their ability to do the job . Any guy taking his first job as head coach in the NFL is gonna be apprehensive about his ability .

Not so with Pres. candidates . I think they all believe what Kinky said !grin

I have said before and I will say again, I have not yet decided who to support. There is plenty of time before I will announce my candidate. Meanwhile I am researching the possibilities and I also have my best people working on it. If at all possible I will first announce my choice right here on the 'fire. Stand by.

As to Morris, I believe I heard him on Hannity state that he is a Democrat, there is no doubt he once was. He has always been a bit of a weasel so I wouldn't put it past him to be a turncoat. Another Arlen Spector or "Jumpin" Jim Jeffords?
