Much as I despise her to her very core, I would love for her to run against Obama (whom I more-or-less support, but with reservations and certainly not blindly).

There is no way in holy-hell she could win.
I try not to be hyperbolic in political discussions anymore. I don't think I am being so with the above statements.

She is a crazy person.
This one may be hyperbolic. It may also be accurate.

I don't know if she's crazy. She's certainly not the brightest bulb in thinking on her feet. Several commentators have pointed out she still has problems in interviews when she strays from pre-memorized lines and speeches and answers. It's almost a cottage industry to try to think up something she hasn't memorized an answer to (and, no doubt, the questions themselves also being thought up by other people, then answered, then she trained.)



Other commentators have noted she also hasn't hired the people you'd expect at this point, such as a donations manager or campaign manager, or something, forget exactly what.

As though there was any doubt the bus tour is not a publicity stunt and the Republican nomination process is not an ongoing, self serving debacle:

Sarah Palin wants to terminate all energy subsidies

Basically a large middle finger @ Iowa (ethanol, wind).

Actually, that one is pretty consistant. Sarah took on the oil companies in Alaska and forced them to pay royalties to the citizens. Interestingly, she only did so because she was angry at the GOP who had opposed her in the primaries. The plan had been concocted by the Alaska Democrats and she just got behind it.

Still, such a stance is likely to gain her a lot of support everywhere but Iowa and Texas.
 
The religious-right here in Texas don't care much about policy issues, or even actually governing for that matter. As long as she pushes their faux-morality buttons, she would win their vote here.

I dunno if that's true. Texans hate quitters. So do Alaskans for that matter, which is why Sara is a persona non gratis in much of Alaska now.
 
Palin/Ahnald all the way! Amend the constitution! Heh the campaign to do that for him probably lost it's steam recently. :o

Our governer recently passed a resolution praying for rain. Which raises the question regarding the budget crunch - Why not pray for money?

The state board of education wants creationism in science class "because somebody has to stand up to the experts". (true quote)

Palin didn't quit, she sacrificed herself by stepping aside to save Alaska from....something... mumbly...

She'd do fine here getting that slice of the vote.

Oooh, I just thought of something.

TX can solve its budget problems by hiring a televangilist to front for them.

The thought of tricking all of those tax-hating tea-baggers into actually funding the government warms the cockels of my heart.
