Palin in 2012?

Sarah is an idiot. Why would we want her to be the president of the U.S.?

Go back to Alaska, you abominable snowwhackywoman! The next real GOP candidate needs to be Mitt Romney, not a neocon freak!

I dare you Palin! Don't think if you run in 2012 that you won't be against Hillary! You are a joke. Get back to the pagents and lipstick and go home! You live next to Russia so you must also be communist.

Sarah Palin running for President is about the most rediculous thought that I have ever heard. Okay so she has no ethics, kindergarden level reasoning, and a total lack of loyalty to the current ticket - come to think of it those are her only strengths. By the way I voted Republican from 1972 to 1996. I sat out 2000 and 2004 due to the fact that I thought both major candidates were unworthy of the office. This year I will not sit by and let 4 more years of incompetent leadership run the country off the cliffs.

Well, if Palin does end up as the head of the pack in 2012, all the better, I say. I can't think of a more sure-fire way of ensuring a more moderate leadership for another four years at least, after the first Obama term. Kind of like Nixon-McGovern, but from the other side and much more visibly divisive. Can't see Palin getting any more experienced or more wise between now and then.

Sarah Palin is too inexperienced and right wing to be the new leader of the Republican Party, she needs to go back to Alaska. She was picked by default and has become part of the reason that McCain is losing. She was pathetic when interviewed. Now she can continue hunting Moose from a helicopter.

I love this idea. 8 years of Obama sounds fine to me.

Senator stevens will get re-elected then he will resign. The Governor of Alaska,Palin ,will name his replacement...and it will be Senator Sarah Palin.

Of course the Republicans have always done well with imbeciles at the helm, like the amnesiac Reagan and the incurious George. Add to these Sarah Palin whose knowledge and resume could fit into one line of a chinese fortune cookie. The only thing that matters to the republicans is to appeal to their utterly ignorant and shallow base, and, yes, welfare for the rich. With leaders like these we don't need qualifications, anyone of us could run for president.

Interesting commentary here. Michael calls Palin a "neocon freak," then cites Romney as his preferred choice. Romney is not somehow the same as a "neocon freak"?

LarryOregon can't spell "pageant," Mike Edwards can't spell "ridiculous."

Michael Farren can't see how, over the course of the next four years how Palin might gain some experience. Cary Friedman calls her "pathetic," then capitalizes "[M]oose" (sic).

Why is it that these detractors can't articulate a coherent sentence, never mind a coherent argument?

Don't get me wrong -- I'm not a Palin supporter, and somehow doubt I'd vote for her in the next election, but if someone is going to question someone else's intelligence or capabilities, then one should assure that they have some capabilities themselves.

Sarah is already at her highest level of competence. Although it is curious that her husband Todd sits in on her staff meetings and is in her office about 50% of the time. It suggest he is running the show and she is the public relations front person. As VP or even candidate for President, she is and would be beyond her level of competence. The problem is that anybody with less intelligence, education and experience than she posses, can't see the problem. It is not likely a fixable problem either. She can learn the lines, but it is clear that she does not understand the issues. It was shocking to see her in those interview as a sitting governor and not get it.. It begs the question of who really is running Alaska.

Palin in 2012!!!! Awesome, At least she was born in the USA!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a downright frightening thought that Palin would make any kind of crucial, or important decision in the case that America get attacked.

GO Sarah GO! You can win another Election for the Democrats. Just keep it up and by 2012 all the states will be Blue!!

well my sentiments were already made by everyone else who posted. I respect McCain and most other experienced political leaders, regardless of party, but Sarah Palin is more than inexperienced, she is quite likely the dumbest person to ever run for a high ranking public position, it's beyond me how she has followers that actually believe in her abilities...really who feels she is a strong candidate for anything besides a cub scout den parent?

Sarah "Whack Job" Palin as the standard-bearer for the Rethuglican Party?!?
That's freakin' hilarious!
The only group that would ever get behind that nonsensical idea would be SNL ;-)

Wow...............Is this the best the Republicans can come up with?...........This is an insult to the people of this country who believed that our leaders must be highly educated above and beyond on all matters of Politics......(i.e FDR, JFK).
Sarah has demonstrated that her knowledge and leadership abilities are no better than the U.S. Average "Joes". And the average Joes would surely volunteer that we are not nearly qualified in any way, to lead our country.....Although most of us can name the various newspapers that we read daily....

Wake up, James. What's more frightening than having a Muslim, non-natural born US citizen in the white house if America gets attacked?

Not gonna happen. In 2012, Sarah Palin will be 48 years old and will be starting to look frumpy. No longer hot, she will no longer have the appeal she needs to attract Joe the Plumber and his ilk.

Socialism has never worked in communist countries, what makes you think that it will work in America. Mr. Obama, you are going to waste your time!

In 1975 Biden and his friends voted to withdraw troops and cut off funding for South Vietnam immediately. The result is that South Vietnam was collapsed in a short time, many South Vietnamese were killed or put in prisons by North Vietnam. He is going to do the same thing to Iraq and Afghanistan. This will probably put Israel a Kuwait in a difficult situation because Iran and terrorists will be the main power in the region.

I think Obama is great, and I was a Hilary supporter. I hope to God he wins.
oh, and sarah palin is truly a nightmare.

Palin has no future. Dems hate her, most Independents hate her and the rational 1/3 of the Republicans hate her. She abused power, ruined McCain's chances in 2008 and her looks won't last. Now she has to finish her term as Governor with pal Ted Stevens in jail and renouncing all the pork she was used to. AK will be sick of her soon.

Biden was right in 1975. The US had no long-term strategic interest in SE Asia worth the price to hold Nam, Cambodia, Laos etc. Them going communist never hurt us and China was always going to be the power in the region. Fighting proxy wars against them is only worth so much and we paid more than we ever should have.

Iran, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and Syria benefit from proxy wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. They kill us without officially joining. If we just focused on Afghanistan like Obama wanted in 2002 we can hold strong and watch them die like flies.

Dear Patriot,
In response to your question of "What is more frightening than having a Muslim, non-natural born US citizen in the white house if America gets attacked?" You reproducing is infinitely scarier.

You have got to be kidding us. She represents the sensibilities of like, 10% of this nation. She is the reason we will lose will lose the GOP ticket this year, and you can bet that we won't make the same mistake twice.

Once the Talibunny loses her looks, she's done.

Shes nothing but style over substance... otherwise she would have done "Meet the Press" by now.

Palin in 2012? For what title? Miss Hootergirl 2012???

Every time Sarah Palin opens her mouth, her foot goes in deeper and deeper. She's so busy trying to talk her way out of all her coverups (Troopergate firing, illegal killing of wolf pups in Alaska, $21,000 worth of airline tickets for her children (paid for by Alaskan gov't) and $150,000 worth of designer clothes for herself (paid for by donations to Republican National Party). By the way, her last comment re: the clothes was a classic: These clothes aren't even mine - after the campaign, they're going to be donated or RETURNED. Has anyone told her that it is against the law to wear clothes and return them. She tries to paint herself as a good, upstanding, Christian, however, this is a sneaky, mean spirited, lying, deceptive phony! If she ends up anywhere near the White House, I'm moving to Russia (oh no wait...she can see Russia from Alaska and that's too close for me!!) Sarah, pack up your Louis Voutton design bag and go home!

@7

I think you hit it dead on, except. Once Palin becomes the Senator by appointment then The First Dude runs for Govenor and wins.

I so hope that happens so we can see just what a power hungry pair they are.

Question............What other Governor can we think of, that has had as little real political credentials for such a prestigious Government position, as Sarah???? Oh yeah,....Jesse "The Body" Ventura jumped from the world of steroid wrestling to governor of Minn., and Arnold long jumped from the world of steroid body building to govern Calif.... These are crazy times in deed.....Ok, it is a 3 way tie....

YO BLOGGERS PALIN IS NOT A GOOD PRESIDENT, TRUST ME .[:

Finally......I do not have to worry any longer of the possibility that Palin would someday be in charge of our great country..............Goodnight Sarah!

LOL, You are all so afraid of her, Obama has less experience and hillary is a criminal just like her husband. That why you seek to defame her so much. You all think you smarter then the rest. Most of Americas "smart" people said WWII would not involve Americans and we should not arm ourselves at all or encourage the Axis powers to attack. Well now that was a real great way of dealing with the threat at hand. Olny except the threat is coming from within Americans lazy and greedy. Those who do not wish to work hard for a living, rather they would use government to give them what the think they have earned. Any one thinks that we owe the government or society anything is a mindless idiot. And that is why Palin will win over any socialist candiate
