MSNBC...PALIN enthusiasm DRYING UP
Edited on Wed Apr-01-09 12:50 PM by rsmith6621



Mrs Greenspan just reported.

....She is being replaced by Newt boy as the guest speaker at a repuke fundraiser....and she fails to answer questions regarding ethics issues surrounding those who around her and her political machine....


..........2010 will be the end of her political career she is toast just waiting to be finished.

2. I hope everyone in the MSM feels that way and we will not
have to hear her (Palin's) name every single day. I thought she was exposed for the wacky, vacuous wing nut that she is and that would be the end of her national exposure.

3. I'm not sure if I would write her off this quickly
Yeah, if she loses re-election in 2010, her political career will be over. But I still think she's the star of the GOP.

8. I'm thinking that she won't run for re-election
as Alaska's governor in 2010 because of the innumerable controversies surrounding her here, but will concentrate on building up her very rabid following nationwide. A comment on Mudflats last night in response to this post http://www.themudflats.net/2009/03/31/gop-is-over-sarah-palin-and-is-dating-a-new-guy/ summarizes my thoughts (minus the typos and misspellings :rofl: ).



Team Alaska Says:
March 31st, 2009 at 6:41 PM
This was a very smart move on Gino’s part to pass up on this appearance. If she had committed to this event with all the confusion down in Juneau right now, there would be hell to pay. This Alaskan hockey mom that lives on a lake, knows what thin ice is! She is gifted at dancing on thin ice by the way, and is toying with are legislators right now. (WAR, Grussendorf, Stimulus,Doogan, Electrical projects, AGIA, ext.)

She is pacing herself, remember she is a runner in good shape physically! When she does seriously start campaigning for 2012-16 for herself!, she will have one hell of a fast pasted spin campaign with Meg at the helm managing the fast moving ship! Her goal right now is to look like a moma Alaskan bear, be anti-BO, keep her cubs in control with small political bombs, confusion, finger pointing, youbeta, and whining at the press/bloggers.

She has a plan and learned allot from a true veteran of political wars first hand. She can spin a campaign like no other. No one will be able to keep up with her “fresh no content populous thin air”, directly from Alaska. There will be lots of clever multi-media produced for GINO’s 6 pack minions, Alaska men NRA’er, pro lifers, big oil & gasers, proud military Americans, and conservative right wing fundies. Todd is even making videos now!

Sounds like she had a meeting with no balls gary steivens today, and it sure as hell doesn’t sound like anyone down in Juneau is holding GINO to,” task”.

Just more Alaskan politics as usual.

Thinking GINO is going to go away with out constant vigilance from the concerned public is just “Magical Thinking”.




I'm wondering if she isn't considering a third-party run if she's dissatisfied with the Republicans. This isn't the first time that she's had issues with the party, not only nationally but here in the state, as well.

13. My first response to wingnuts when they praise her
Edited on Wed Apr-01-09 01:14 PM by louis-t
is always :"That's your best and brightest? That's all you've got?"

19. Being bright is a bad thing in the Republican Party
It make you elitist. This is why people like Bush and Palin became so popular among Republicans.

22. The average repug doesn't want someone who is smart
in government, they want someone who makes THEM feel smart.

25. absolutely correct - that is why they hate college professors so much
as well as public school teachers. Too well educated.

4. Newt won't be as much fun unless we can catch him with his
soon-to-be-fourth wife.

5. I sure hope so.
Anyone who justifies gassing wolves and killing their baby pups with a bullet to the head is ghastly beyond words. (Good Christian, huh?)
There aren't words for how much I despise Sarah Palin.
I truly hope Karma exists.

7. Honestly, the only reason she had this much coverage is the trainwreck aspect
The journalists, sick of covering city hall and board meetings, pointed their cameras to something much more entertaining.

14. When McCain first picked her, I thought "Sarah who?"
Then when I just saw this thread, I thought "Sarah who?" :shrug:

16. Frankly, I don't know why we would want to spend a whole lot of time on her anyway.
Since she doesn't have much of a chance of winning anything outside of Alaska, I still don't understand why everyone (including this site) keeps giving her the proverbial time of day.

We need to focus like a laser on the (R)'s that actually have a chance to get elected and leave her to her own little cold corner of the country.

17. They will bring her back out of mothballs in 2012 because of name recognition.



But she will again prove to be a pathetic failure.

21. She won't even be in the running for 2012. I actually kind of hope it is Newt
I think we could have some fun with him.
