And you think Sarah Palin would make a good President of The United States? Please, no evasions, like "She would be as good as any of the Dems I see'. Just a straight answer which will be stored in the ET database. You think she would make a good President of The United States?
I don't know. Do I think she would bring an aura of personal economical responsibility to the drunken spending sailors in Congress, l do, big time. Could she be a better president than Obama or Bush, just for doing that? Very possible.. She will be getting better and better everyday, you will see. and by the way, if you do trade for a living you should know we have the necessity and ability to change our mind at a moments notice without recourse or remorse. I could change my mind on Palin based on future conditions. For now I think she is the emissary many very pissed people in this country would send to DC to kick some financial coherence into congress's ass.
If you really believe that Sarah Palin, of all people, has the gravitas and the moral authority to put a headlock on the most powerful people on the planet (GS et al and the lawmakers to whom you refer), I don't know what to say. The chance of that happening is on par with the chance that 3 dark planets will crash into the Earth in the next 10 minutes. In other words, there is zero chance of that happening. If Palin were to become President (hypothetically, since that will never happen) she would quickly become just another pawn for the GOP's chessmasters. In the same way that you all believe Obama is a pawn in the game. It's hard to keep track of all the ironies coming out of the extremist right these days. They whined and moaned about media 'character assassination' of GWB and promptly engage in the biggest campaign of such activity ever seen. They complain that Obama is a lightweight and promptly get behind the ultimate flyweight of all time, Sarah Palin. They pre-judge Obama on his 'weak on terror' stance and promptly start bashing him when he announces what amounts to a surge in Afghanistan, on the grounds that he is talking about the U.S. leaving the country in a planned manner, something that the majority of Americans want. As Kurt would say.... and so on.
Lol. And how about Obama's Austrian comment? Or are we just gonna call that another slip of the tongue and give him another free pass? Perhaps you should ask Palin how you say, "wheelin and dealin" in Austrian? According to Harry Reid's requirements for leadership, Palin has nice light skin with no negro dialect so perhaps that is what has liberals needlessly spending 24/7 media coverage spelling out how dumb she is, to other liberals that is.
What I believe is irrelevant. Do I see that Palin just signed a deal that gives her the opportunity to speak her mind in a friendly environment in the most watched news network in the country for the next several years? I do, do you? It's a deal made in heaven, it won't be easy for any other political figure to get such national coverage, at such a personal level. Some very powerful people want to see her in the White House, trust me. The idea is not that far fetched.
"in the most watched news network in the country" ...ahem... Most watched cable news network...not most watched television news. ...and since when did the most watched cable network determine validity, truth, morality, etc.? Because if that is true, then everything on CNN when it was the most watched was the most valid, most truthful, most moral, etc.
I'm just commenting on what you said. That's all I have to go by. Sorry to be blunt, but I'm saying that what you said is so far-fetched as to be basically a joke. I don't believe for one second that the GOP brain trust wants to run her. They know that she'll be eaten alive. Sure, some powerful people probably want her to run - because they know they could be puppetmasters if she won. The idea that she has the knowledge, gravitas or moral authority to 'kick some ass' at Goldman Sachs is beyond ridiculous. We'll see what happens in 2012. My prediction is that Sarah Palin will not be running against Barack Obama for the Presidency. Either I'll be right, or you will. I'm guessing that you don't want to place any of your hard-earned money on a bet, right?
