So if Palin beats Obama
Im guessing Fox news will say "you dont protest your president at war time" and the tea party will be disbanded.

1. If Palin beats Obama, I have relatives in Canada. I'll be
paying them a visit. A long visit.

2. She will never see the office
because the country will descend into anarchy, and washington will be burned to the ground.

3. We'd have a "Reagan-Redux"
There would be a behind-the-scenes puppet master (like GHWB) who would call the shots..

8. The media can manipulate *ANYTHING* into happening, anything that they want to have happen.
And most American voters are ill-informed (if not outright
misinformed) morons who'll believe anything the Corporate
Media tells them.

9. Yes. Enough people in this country are dumbed down to the level where she could win
the presidency.

14. Here Here!
Incredible to me how this could even be seriously considered!!!!!!

Is THIS what our 'country" has finally relegated itself to.......a fricking, fracking popularity contest like what....back in high school? Have we NOT matured since then?????

INCREDIBLE that this is even on the table already!!!!!!!

I just have to shake my head in total, utter disgust and contempt!

Yep. We're a young nation alright. A really, really, young, STUPID immature nation!

13. If it happens ...
... I'd say she lands one smack, then Obama gives her a jab-jab-crosspunch, she drops, and the Security Service carts her ass away.

16. She's been mayor and city council member of a town of 5000
You could probably count the traffic lights in town on one hand and have fingers to spare
She couldn't handle a full term as governor of Alaska, a state with the population of Charlotte NC
When America has seen a year or so of Tea-potties in government, she'll be about as popular as leprosy
