Call her Sarah Palin without the public appeal. Rick Santorum just cannot get any traction. … Jon Huntsman would have been a good candidate if he hadn't gone to work for Obama in 2009. Unfortunately, that leads some to …
This GOP Presidential Race Sure is a Circus Without Sarah Palin …
Woodham, skewers all of the candidates, you can read more here. It's good to see the Dispatch's contempt for Governor Palin is still intact. I would have been worried the Mayan's prediction of earth's demise might be about to …

Whether you like what she has to say or not, Sarah Palin is without doubt the best orator on the circuit.
And don’t take my word for it but go check out, Palin is the best orator!
When Governor Chris Christie was recently asked, "Can you think of one Republican candidate who really inspires you?", he replied, "NO".
Why not Palin?
Palin has two major problems to overcome (only liberal claim she’s done) if she wants to be chosen as the Republican presidential candidate:
Most of her own party believes she too extreme to get elected President.
Women don’t like voting for female candidates.

Palin just defended Trump saying that, "he’s being treating unfairly".
“We appreciate that Donald Trump is so candid", Palin said on Tuesday. “but Donald Trump is the one being really treated unfairly, I’d say though, in the press, when they’re hammering him about the one issue that he has brought up and not been shy about, and that’s the birth certificate”.
“Trump keeps getting questioned about the birther issue, whilst the Obama dominated media refuses to question him on other of the many other issues that he’s for or against”.
An alliance between Trump and Palin?
Who would be the #1 ?!
Palin showed tremendous power in 2010 as a kingmaker and as an opinion shaper, but she must know that she has very little chance at the nomination and even less in the general election.
So why would she risk it, and the inevitable diminishment that defeat would bring?
Whether she is aiming for “the fundamental restoration of America” (no small ambition for a road trip up I-95), the restoration of her celebrity or even a genuine run for president, Palin’s proving she’s still a player.
Reporters fanned out from Fort McHenry in Baltimore to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, trying to keep up with her bus, which is painted with “We the People,” a map of the U.S. and the Liberty Bell.
Her impact is immediate, her timing shrewd.
The best moment to shake up the field of 2012 candidates is before it’s settled.
It seems very unlikely that Palin will run.
Polls show that all Republicans know her, most like her a lot, but relatively few name her as their first choice.
The electoral fates of Sharron Angle and Christine O’Donnell have been instructive.
It’s one thing to lose a Senate seat by nominating a candidate you love, but who can’t win, and it’s another thing to lose the presidency that way!
Ms. Palin, let the anticipation build for hours on Sunday in the Pentagon’s North Parking Lot, where thousands of bikers had gathered for the annual Rolling Thunder rally ahead of Memorial Day.
And then, suddenly, there they were!
Ms. Palin, her husband, Todd, and the rest of the family all wearing matching black Harley-Davidson helmets.
They rode motorcycles toward the front of the procession through a crush of cameramen, photographers, reporters and leather-clad bikers, all jostling for just a peek at the woman who might be the next president.
A traditional political appearance it was not!
She did not make any public remarks or shake hands with dignitaries, and there was no news release accompanying her visit.
And after the short ride to the National Mall she sped off in a black sport utility vehicle to points unknown to anyone outside her small circle.
For sheer mastery of celebrity theater, Sarah Palin can’t be beat!
Palin took a pass on the White House Correspondents Dinner Saturday, and chose instead to attend a fundraiser for the anti-abortion group Heroic Media at a Maryland hotel.
“The pro-life cause or White House Correspondents’ Dinner?”.
“I choose life!” Palin told a crowd of about 200 at the event.
Palin said the power dinner in D.C. didn’t hold the same appeal for her as it seemed to hold for the presidential hopefuls who attended, and she spoke for more than forty five minutes at a “Jews for Sarah” gathering.
She never mentioned Israel in her remarks, but stumped hard against Planned Parenthood and abortion rights advocates.
Palin is an extremist with very little knowledge about how to lead government, besides she would quit half way through.
Romney would sell out the U.S. to the highest bidder.
Huckabee would have everyone meeting in revival tents every Sunday, and Gingrich would turn Washington into an immoral orgy.
Shortly after Republicans swept to an historic victory last November, in which Sarah Palin was credited with playing a central role, the former Alaska governor pulled aside her close aide, Rebecca Mansour, to discuss a hush-hush assignment.
“We need to reach out to conservative filmmaker Stephen K. Bannon with a request. Ask him if he would make a series of videos extolling Palin’s governorship and laying to rest lingering questions about her controversial decision to resign from office with a year-and-a-half left in her first term”.
Palin knew that it was her resignationthat that had made her damaged goods in the eyes of many Republicans who were once were eager to get behind her potential 2012 presidential campaign.
The response however was more positive than Palin could ever have hoped for.
Mansour replied that he would not only make a feature-length movie, but would also finance it himself: to the tune of $1 million!
And the fruits of that initial conversation are now complete and the result is a two-hour-long, sweeping epic and Bannon privately screened a rough-cut for Sarah and Todd Palin last Wednesday in Arizona
And when the movie premieres in Iowa next month, the film is poised to serve as a galvanizing prelude to Palin’s prospective presidential campaign!
And this comes at a time when Beltway Republicans had largely concluded that she wouldn’t run.

On the “stir” created by her bus tour, and whether she is considering entering the race for President Palin said:
“I would love to stir it up even more and get the electorate to think. It’s not about me, it’s about a message. I would love to give the White House fits”.
Palin says she thinks not every 2012 GOP candidate has declared.
If she doesn’t run or “go rogue” Sarah Palin said she would support the Republican nominee over President Obama.
“I am going to work as hard as I can to make sure a nominee surfaces who is a supporter of a smaller, smarter government, and then we won’t be in the position of needing to go rouge. But as I said before, it’s anybody but Obama. Things cannot get any worse under a Republican administration”.
