Will Sarah Palin will be the next POTUS?

[Postman]

Not because she is qualified (it's a far gone conclusion the woman knows nothing except how to deliver right wing talking points) but because a majority of the American people are the dumbest MFers on the globe.

Is Barack Obama more diplomatic, intellectual, pragmatic, astute, statesman like? Yes, yes, yes, yes and yes. But that doesn't matter in 21st century America. What matters and what makes Sarah Palin qualified is her physical attractiveness, use of home-spun right wing populist rhetoric (no matter how nonsensical) and her allies in the corporate media to cover her tracks when she ultimately sticks her foot in her mouth.

Come 2012 if the economy has not produced jobs, if unemployment is worse - what then?

To me, Sarah Palin is nothing more than a Manchurian candidate for corporate America. The woman simply is a moron and reflexively repeats nonsensical right wing talking points, whose policies they reflect have been the problem that created the mess we find ourselves presently in. She's Reagan in a dress.

Not everyone will see her that way. In fact most Americans are low information voters. And those Americans are the ones that scare the hell out of me the most because they can be suckered, manipulated, propagandized.......

1. Chance the Gardener... with a mean streak. - n/t

[shraby]

2. She's not Reagan in a dress..she's a combination of

Dan Quayle and George Bush in a dress. Nuff said about Palin. She's a loser from day one.

[Ozymanithrax]

3. She has a fair chance of being the next Republican nominee...

Certainly, her constituency will require someone of equal right wing caliber lest they desert the Republican Party and form their own cult.

4. I'm not losing a wink of sleep over Palin.

[unpossibles]

5. no. nt

[bigtree]

6. if she runs

. . . the media will work (and come close) to equalizing the illusion of her support with the Democratic nominee (PO). It'll be another nail in the republican party's coffin, tho

[Postman]

7. the Republican Party will never go away no matter how small it becomes...

because it is funded by the super-rich and corporations.

[treestar]

8. No, she will not

Crazy right wing voters get fewer every election, as the dinosaur generation is replaced with the new one.

As the country becomes less white, also. (and also, too).

9. The M$M is going to cram her down Americas throat.

KENTWOOD -- Lucy Vigmostad camped out on the eve of her 18th birthday and went sleepless for 34 hours, enduring 30-degree temperatures with the help of a midnight dance and Red Bulls.

Her biggest present came at about 6 p.m., when the Brighton teen was first in line to see last year's Republican vice presidential candidate, Sarah Palin, and get her to sign Vigmostad's copy of the former Alaska governor's memoir, "Going Rogue."

You'd think they were waiting for a rock star.

Well, maybe they were.

Ex-VP candidate campaigns for her memoir

At 4:55 a.m., 13 hours before Sarah Palin was to start signing copies of "Going Rogue" on the first leg on her 15-city book tour, the first cheer went up.

"Sarah! Sarah! Sarah!"

The temperature had dipped into the 30s, but the 500 or so people in line didn't mind, many of them having stood in the cold temperatures Tuesday night for a chance to get the former Alaska governor and GOP vice presidential candidate to sign their copies.

"What she represents is what we're standing in line for," said Robin Case, 44, of Traverse City, who had arrived at 9 p.m. Tuesday with a chair and sleeping bag to get her wrist bracelet into the Barnes & Noble at Woodland Mall. "She's real, and she's standing up for what we believe in."

The themes among the Palin faithful were similar: She's a role model to young and old; she stands for what they love about America.

Mary Carrothers, 95, and Ginny LeMire, 85, both of Grand Rapids waited in a light drizzle outside, hoping to get a glimpse of Palin.

More proof that Fox ran fake video of Palin's book-tour "crowds"
November 18, 2009 6:29 pm ET by Jeremy Schulman

Earlier, Think Progress caught Fox News showing what was clearly footage of a 2008 Sarah Palin campaign rally but claiming that it was video of "huge crowds" attending Palin's book tour.

But in case the McCain-Palin campaign signs and tee-shirts clearly visible in the footage Fox aired aren't enough to make Fox apologize, here's further proof.

Here's a screenshot of the footage of one of the rallies that Fox's Gregg Jarrett showed today and claimed was "just coming into us" as part of the book tour:

And here's a photo posted last year by Florida TV station CFNews 13 of a November 1, 2008, Palin rally in Ocala, Florida
