SYMMES TOWNSHIP - Hundreds of people flocked to a Kroger on Friday to meet Sarah Palin on her national book tour, driven by passion, lured by white-hot celebrity and united by the belief that America would be better off today if she were in the White House.

Many camped outside Thursday night, braving temperatures in the 20s and snow flurries, to be assured of getting Palin’s signature on her book, “America By Heart.” Some came from as far as Columbus, Chillicothe, Toledo and Michigan. One 50-year-old man even drove six hours from St. Louis to get an autographed book as a Christmas present for his wife.

David Richardson, 66, of Loveland who lined up outside the Harper’s Point supermarket at about 5:30 p.m. Thursday – 17½ hours before Palin was set to sign her book – believes he knows the answer.

“I think she’s behind the single biggest change in politics and political discussion in the United States," said Richardson, one of about 200 people who spent the night outside the Kroger to be certain of getting one of the 500 wristbands that guaranteed them a Palin autograph.

"Dear Scissors,

Don't feel bad. Nobody wants to run with me, either.

Love,
Sarah Palin"

Are you now going to show the poll that has more people voting for her than barry? How many avg people who took that survey do you think know who Barbour, Bolton, Daniels and even Pence are?
Where is Jindal?
Guiliani?
Duncan Hunter?
Ron Paul?

[Nbadan]

Herman Cain 13% 837

I'd be more worried about Cain's rising numbers...

guliani wont run, he would be stupid to do so he has no shot. jindal i think wont run, i think he may just stick it out to N.O. its basically a tea party candidate not named palin vs gingrich, romney and palin. huckabee has no shot because he cant get any votes outside of the evangelical base.

60% Of Voters Wouldn’t Even Consider Voting For Sarah Palin For POTUS

Six in 10 voters say they would not even consider voting for the former Alaska governor if she launches a White House bid, and she loses badly to President Obama in a hypothetical 2012 general election test

he's not the brightest bulb in the bunch..

[Oh, Gee!!]

being a celebrity doesn't mean qualified to be POTUS. Romney is the best choice for Republicans as I think he could beat Obama.

Palin's role will be as a cheerleader in the red states only during the general election. She will not be allowed by the GOP in swing states even for a vacation.

Agree.

The right wing base may not like Romney being a Mormon but given a choice between Romney and Boogeyman Obama they will still turn out and vote.

And yet the forum moonbats will start a thread about her every week.:lmao

the only forseeable problem is whether Palin will understand where her value lies within Team GOP. will she do what's good for the party, or for herself?

I guess that begs the question, how long before she quits?

If I was Palin I'd ride that horse till it died. Shit...she's a walking talking ATM machine right now...

[johnsmith]

Meh, I'd still fuck her.

Meh, I'd still fuck her.

Now this is something we can agree on!

Vagina......it can reach across the aisle.

[Stringer_Bell]

Vagina......it can reach across the aisle.

She's popped out enough kids, I'm sure her pussy can stretch that far. But I digress...

I sincerely hope she runs for President and turns this country back to God and the Constitution. We could really use it right now, probably more than ever before.

Well, it always amounts to the lesser of two evils, doesn't it.

40% would? I'd say that's a great start!

Awesome thread

Everyone thinks that but don't forget, every candidate has to get through NH, and Iowa. The Huck and Palin won't get through that alive. Romney can pay his way and Gingrich and Guiliani have enough old money candidates to get through it. It will also be more difficult for a tea party candidate to get through with no one running against BHO. I definitely think Guiliani is the best candidate right now, IMO. I think the real fight in the primaries will be immigration.

[Winehole23]

I definitely think Guiliani is the best candidate right now, IMO.For precocious users of 9/11 Tourette's like Giuliani the moment may already have passed.

His performance in the 2008 presidential primaries as the odds-on GOP favorite did not inspire confidence.

It's hard to believe that Rudy's shrill, uber-cynical 2012 version of himself would do much better.

[spursncowboys]

as far as politicians go, he's the best known fiscal conservative. If that is going to be the sales pitch in 12.

[Winehole23]

[Spurminator]

Palin is a wedge issue in human form. She will not ever be a serious candidate.

[ChuckD]

Agree.

You obviously don't understand the X-tian Right. To them, a Morman is an apostate. Rather than vote for him or Obama, they'd stay home.

I don't think even Karl Rove thinks that any GOP candidate can beat Obama

Rove accidentally predicts Obama reelection

Freudian slip alert:


"I suspect she will be a candidate. I suspect she is going to think about being a candidate in 2016, and we'll know by about 2014.

If she leaves the (Obama) Administration in 2014 or 2015, in order to give herself a chance to write a book about her experiences and reconnect with the grassroots, then she might entertain it.

She'll be younger in 2016 than John McCain was when he ran, and she will -- I suspect -- be a big presence on the Democratic scene."
