When she arrived for the drivers meeting, Palin was immediately mobbed. She briefly chatted with Republican National Committee chairman Michael Steele, shook hands with supporters and smiled big.

She took a seat up front next to Harry Connick Jr., who sang the national anthem for the race. When NASCAR president Mike Helton acknowledged her as a special guest, she got the largest ovation from the room, packed from the front to the back with drivers, team members, support personnel and onlookers.

Need a link for this one. The only time I can recall her favorable rating being over 50% was right when she was announced as McCain's VP pick, but by election day it was already way down. I've haven't seen any national poll that puts her anywhere near 50% since then. A lot can happen in two years, though.

It's like the old joke about two guys being chased through the woods by a bear...you don't have to be really fast...just faster than the other guy. Smiler

In the last election, how many voted for the Democrat (Obama) because they thought the Republicans (Bush) had done a crappy job? In the upcoming election, the shoe will be on the other foot. People won't have to like Palin, just not dislike her as much as the other guy. Wink

Note the words in my post "I think". No link for this one, just sharing my opinion.

Sounds like what Democrats thought about John Kerry. I kind of doubt that "Anybody but Obama" will work any better than "Anybody but Bush."



The Republicans will say "anybody but Obama".

The Democrats will shout "four more years".

I can't predict the winner...but I can pretty much tell you who's gonna lose.
As additional information, and as an example of the typical PR blather and baloney that streams from the lipsticked motormouth of the Wacko Wingnut of Wasilla, I submit this excerpt from the link provided above:

"When asked what a trip to a swing state like Florida does for her political ambitions, the former Alaska governor said, "Haven't thought a darn thing about the politics of this. I'm thinking about this good, active, speed-loving event that a lot of Alaskans, too, are really into. We've got our snow-machine races up there, and this is, of course, on a much greater scale, same type of sport though, same type of breath-taking, speed-loving, All-American event that we like to see up north."

Sure, Sarah, all you came to Daytona for was to gush about "this good, active, speed-loving event that a lot of Alaskans, too, are really into." And, yes, all of us are aware of the very close similarity between NASCAR races and dog-sled races. Indeed, one needs to look closely to tell them apart. We all know that 10 or 12 dogpower is roughly the same as 300 to 400-horsepower and that the only difference is that one kind of race is on snow over a long course with a beginning and an end with practically no spectators along the way, and the other is a roaring about within a paved, closed track adjacent to bleachers packed mostly with screaming, beer-guzzling rednecks. Other than that--pretty much the same. Oh, one other thing, sled dog races are delayed only in the event of extraordinarily bad weather, whereas the Daytona 500 was stalled for hours by infrastructure breakdown in the form of a 2-foot pothole!

Would you feel better if she showed up at a normal liberal dimocrat event like a dope deal and subsequent robbery, shooting and murder or a gang rape or looting a store or a carjacking/murder or a mother putting her baby to death or an executive having sex with an underling? Give me the NASCAR crowd ANY DAY. Roll Eyes

Do you pull that proof out, with your teeth!

Sarah Palin is a thinly disguised Trojan Horse. Her mission is to subvert the Tea Party movement and shepherd its supporters back into the big government and all-war-all-the-time Republican camp.

Sarah Palin is a neocon. If the folks who are paying around $500 to attend the Republican love fest in Nashville cannot see this, they are about as clueless as Sarah who would be a babe lost in the woods without her Republican and neocon handlers and speech writers (and Facebook scribblers).

Finally, it really is scary how easily the Tea Party movement was played. On CNN last night, one attendee to the fest in Nashville said the idea is to change the Republican party from the inside out and make it the party of the Constitution and individual liberty.

I had to laugh. If Tea Party supporters believe this is possible, they may be interested in some oceanfront property I have for sale in Arizona.

quote:
Sarah Palin recently campaigned in Texas against Medina, and for an insider opponent of Medina, Rick Perry. This is what the Austin Statesman has to say about Perry:

Perry is firmly establishment in Texas but has campaigned as anti-Washington in his March 2 GOP primary race against U.S. Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison.

This is what the Statesman reports Palin said about Perry:

“The stakes are so high in America today,” said Palin, who brought her youngest daughter, Piper, to the event. “I look forward to Texas sending Washington a message because you’re doing it right in Texas.

“This election will send an important message how Washington can solve the problems: the Texas way or the Washington way… Washington is broken but your state, under Rick Perry, is setting an example that a lot of others want to follow.”



quote:

CYPRESS, Texas – On Super Bowl Sunday, Rick Perry handed the ball to star runner Sarah Palin, who joined the governor's team in bashing big-spending Washington.

She urged the crowd to stick with Perry as someone whose conservative policies are succeeding, but she also received a huge cheer from the crowd of about 8,000 when she said she'd heard some mention of Texas seceding.

A perfect example of rant, without proof.

This statement appears to approve of Perry, an anti-establishment candidate, whom Palin supports. What's the problem.

Are you a religious nut who doesn't wish women to take HPV vaccine? Those seem to be against Perry.


Rick Perry is the incumbent, lifelong, long term politician. He is supposed to represent everything Palin is against. She is supposed to be an outsider, anti establishment candidate. Now she is out campaigning for establishment candidates.

You lose again my friend.

Coming from you, oh Bloated Blowhard of Bombast, that makes my credibility just fine. I do wish you had picked a different nickname. That one's too long. What about bbb for short, not to be confused with BBB(Better Business Bureau or Bed Bath & Beyond).

You gave no proof that she shares neo-con beliefs, or associates with them. You have a problem with the Constitution and liberty?

Nothing like college tuition reduction for illegal immigrants.


I can't believe non of the righties want to touch this. What's the matter?


Perhaps because knowledge of what Perry actually DID and actually SAID in Istanbul is too fuzzy and indistinct at this point to support any accusations of misconduct. Just what would an indictment look like at this stage? Perhaps the emphasis should be on requiring Perry to disclose to the citizens of Texas and the U.S.A just who he did meet with and what he did at that conference. Conspiracy theorists just need to hear or see the word "Bilderberg" to get their frilly panties in a wad.
