Sarah Palin: Right Wing Savior or Grifter?
Sarah Palin hates federal stimulus, but grabs the dollars, she campaigns for ethics in Govt. but faces ethics charges constantly. She promises to serve and backs out when there’s money to be made. Is she a savior for the Republicans, able even to manipulate internet support, or is she just a grifter, moving on to a new and bigger mark?

2. She's the ultimate opportunist.

She has about a 2% chance of becoming president/vp in four years and 100% chance of cashing in on the big bucks right now. Watching Joe The Not Plumber cash in has got to stick in her craw.

You really can't blame HER when you think about it. She's was minding her own business defrauding the citizens of Alaska when John McCain drove a dump-truck full of money up to her ill-gotten front door (and windows).

3. I will forever blame McCain and his handlers for the virus
that is Palin infecting us for almost a year now. I would have been very happy to have never seen or heard of her.

5. Yep,
It's all about the money now. I still think she will try get the nomination in 2012, but if she keeps on having things come out about her, even some of her diehard followers will be having second thoughts. I don't know if her plan is to try and gain sympathy votes, or what, but a lot of republicans are being turned off by what she did. Sure they might hold their nose and vote for her "if" she were the nominee, but many won't. A lot of the big shot republicans have turned on her, and I hear that even Fox news has been turning on her. All it will take is Rush to also turn on her, and she will be toast in the republican party. Now some of her diehard followers are hoping she will run no matter what, and even start a "new" party, but that will only divide the republican party even further, and I really don't think that would bother Palin as long as she was the center of attention, and making money had over fist! Only time will tell!
