Members Soapsuds Posted November 18, 2009 Members Share Posted November 18, 2009 I agree. I cant stand her. Her running for President is laughable.....she doesnt have a chance....hell will freeze over if she wins...cant stand the woman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted November 18, 2009 Members Share Posted November 18, 2009 The interview was a waste of time really...... Sarah is supposed to be "unscripted" here? Every answer she gave Oprah was just as informative as any answer she gave during the campaign. All politicians are transparent, but it appears as if Sarah Palin doesn't even try to hide her true agenda. Even if Palin tries and runs for the Rep. ticket in 2012, she won't make it to the convention.... if she does.... then really the republican party is clearly out of touch with reality.

Members Sylph Posted November 18, 2009 Author Members Share Posted November 18, 2009 To me, this is such a hysterical "phenomenon", I just can't stop laughing at this woman! I have no idea who gave her the idea she can run for President. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SnCCorinthos4ever Posted November 18, 2009 Members Share Posted November 18, 2009 Thanks for the warning. This will be ONE MUST MISS Oprah show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TC Posted November 19, 2009 Members Share Posted November 19, 2009 She has about as much substance as "The Teacher" or "The Librarian" from the pictorials in my dad's old HUSTLER maqazines. She's "The Governor" Some people, more than you think, believe she should be "The President" I need a hug now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alphanguy74 Posted November 21, 2009 Members Share Posted November 21, 2009 Keep in mind, most major cities in the United stated have WELL over 1 million people. The entire state of Alaska has only around 600,000. She just a glorified MAYOR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Max Posted November 22, 2009 Members Share Posted November 22, 2009 Unfortunately for Democrats, Palin is unlikely to be the GOP nominee for president in 2012. That's because the party establishment knows what a train wreck her candidacy would be, and will do everything to try and stop her. (And, in sharp contrast to how it works in the Democratic party, it is virtually impossible to get the Republican nomination without the support of the establishment.) The poster above me made a good point regarding the fact that being governor of Alaska isn't good preparation for the presidency since that state has such little population. Nevertheless, I find it hypocritical that the left would bring this up since the candidate they embraced in 2004--Howard Dean--was the governor of tiny Vermont (which is one of only two states that has a smaller population than Alaska).

Members Max Posted November 22, 2009 Members Share Posted November 22, 2009 Were it not for the fact that he'd be too old, I really would like to see a McCain-Obama re-match in 2012. (With a different running mate for McCain, of course). Aside from this, my first choice for the GOP nomination would be Rudy Giuliani (although there's virtually zero chance that he'd win the nomination). Among the candidates with a realistic chance of getting the GOP nomination, any of the following would have my support: *Mike Huckabee--While I'd prefer a moderate to get the nomination, Huckabee is definately among the best the conservative wing could do, since he's charismatic, articulate, and tolerant of the moderate wing of the party. *Bobby Jindal--Like Huckabee, Jindal is from the right wing of the party. However, because he possesses the same qualities that I mentioned above for Huckabee, he would be able to attract moderates and thus become a formidable opponent to Obama. *Chris Christie--Few have heard of the charismatic Christie, who is the governor-elect of New Jersey. However, he will definately be a rising star in the coming years since he is a pro-life "moderate-conservative" who managed to win a statewide election in an overwhelmingly blue state. Unfortunately, I highly doubt Christie will run in 2012 since he'd still be in his first term as governor. *John Kaisch--Kaisch is another moderate-to-conservative Republican (like Christie) who possesses a likeable personality. Although he is currently running for governor of Ohio, he had a national profile back in the 1990's when he served as Chairman of the House Budget Committee.

Members bellcurve Posted November 22, 2009 Members Share Posted November 22, 2009 No Haley Barbour?! For shame! And you call yourself a Republican! I love Huck and he is "tolerant" of the moderates in the Republican Party, but I don't think that would stop his social agenda(i.e. gay marriage, health issues, etc.). I think what I like most about him is that what he says is what he'll do. How that comes into play whenever he would be minted into the White House remains to be seen. There's no way the Republicans will put up Jindal because he's another minority. I think the Republicans will use, not only Obama's overspending, but the race baiting will be huge in 2012.

Members DRW50 Posted November 22, 2009 Members Share Posted November 22, 2009 Christie barely managed to win against the wildly unpopular Corzine, and was also unable to answer the attacks against his ethics or the claims that he had few fiscal plans for the state. He ended up complaining about people saying he's overweight, and running on banning gay marriage. I'm sure the latter would work in a national campaign but everyone running on the GOP side will probably run on banning gay marriage. I think Tim Pawlenty or Romney will be the 2012 nominee.
