Joe Scum says the Palin tape has ended Lady Blah Blah's
political career and he can't see her winning another elected office.

You're late Joe Scum.

2. It endears her to her 'base'!
I don't think anybody with an R hanging off their ass has the guts to challenge the teabaggers and for good reason. She might win the primary, but hopefully there are still enough true patriotic Americans that she will fail miserably in the general.

11. She won't even win the primary.
She is loved by her "based" a small and shrinking group of underfunded idiots. She isn't even liked by a majority of Republicans.

She is finished. I thought she only had a longshot prior to recent events but the events and her response over the last two keep has killed even that.

5. Joe said, "Go ahead and save this tape, but I predict..........

...she will never get elected to office again".

Sounds good to me Joe!
She's circling the drain and heading down to the sewer where she belongs.
:toast:

6. I bet he gets a death threat spike
Funny how Sarah's minions do that...

But it has nothing to do with her rhetoric. No siree. Ya betcha.

7. The national revulsion for Palin is growing. (I know mine is!)
I envision big increases in her "strongly disapprove" numbers. Her actual approval rating, currently 22%, may not be able to go much lower, since 22% is about the percentage of irredeemable right-wing nutjobs we are saddled with in this country.

8. She doesn't want to win - she wants to run, lose, then get fees for appearances.
That way she doesn't have to do any real leading.

It's the "Producers" philosophy of making money off of losing.

12. Believe me: If Kkkarl Rove wanted Palin in the race, she would NEVER be called out about any of
this. The ONLY

ONLY

reason she is getting blasted publicly is because the republican power brokers don't want her there. It has NOTHING to do with decency, and it has nothing to do with liberals and other decent people being sick of her.

13. Running for office was her old job.
Now she's a professional media whore like Gingrich.

16. Her "endorsement" of any candidate will be their undoing, as well.

17. ... and THAT is a good thing!
Let's hope the end of her political career is the beginning of the end of the Tea Nuts, too.

19. She had ZERO chance anyway..However she would have never run for office again anyway... she is a
MEDIA WHORE. She keeps her name in the news... good or bad and then exploits money from ignorant people who will pay for her to speak. Why I really don't know. As a previous poster in this thread said... her approval ratings can't go much lower... if 28% of rethugs think it's ok to use violence against the government, she has sunk as low as she can go.

Already... the NRA is forking over thousands for her to speak at one of their conventions later this year.

this MEDIA WHORE quit her job as a Governor! That in it's self would disqualify her from ever running for any office again. Those that even considered that she could run for POTUS were in a fantasy world.

My humble thoughts.

Peace.

20. EJ Dionne has an interesting take. She has a media plan, not a campaign plan.
The plan is: say things to get liberals mad, then portray herself as a victim of liberal slander.

Won't get her anywhere with anyone but her base, but they keep using those medicare, medicaid and ss $$ to go see her talk, and buy her books.

As long as she has a line of credit with Mary Kay, and doesn't pig out on pastry, she'll keep her "use by" date delayed a little longer.

21. Seriously doubt she'd ever win one anyway.
I'm not sure that's ever what she is really after. She may like the *idea* of winning, but not obviously the actual work of governing. She's probably perfectly content with her over-paid cult status. THAT'S what I'd like to see dwindle to nada.

22. I know everyone hates Joe but he's what I consider a REAL republican
from bygone days. He's a dying breed that's going extinct from the clamor of the extreme right. I'd guess that's why we're seeing more Independents, they're real Repubs that the extreme right has run out of their own party.
