Sarah Palin's to-do list.

No. 1 - get a brain. That is all.

Sarah Palin

I love Sarah. I would definitly vote for her. She is better qualified than the president we have now, who falls all over himself without a tela prompter.

You may all go to hell , but I will go to Texas and vote for Sarah Palin.

15 seconds of Fame are OVER!

Her 15 seconds of Fame are over the Republicans who have good sense will passe her over for any considerations to be included in any future run for any office in Washington, at least that's what we are discussing at our Party meeting here in Texas. She was/is the worst mistake we ever made and it won't happen twice!Rick Perry may be in love with her but the rest of us are not...........

Sarah Palin

If you think for one second that Sarah Palin is going to stand up form women's rights your dead wrong! The only thing Palin is out for is herself. You can tell this by they way she pushed off the baby one the youngest and how she let her oldest daughter have that baby without her getting married. Go ahead listen to her tripe she will set womens rights back to horse and buggy days! Sarah is out for what's best for Sarah. As long as you donate money and time for HER CAUSE your her friend but once that line is crossed she WON"T EVEN ACKNOWLEDGE you are alive......At least John McCain kissed his wife on stage, Palin stayed away from her husband, what does that tell ya? NO ONE in TEXAS likes her..............

Shelly,

You are an idiot..How many abortions have you had, dead babies on your conscience..because you sound like a crazy cat lady...

Governor Palin draws out the worse in people like you because you idolize your precious choice, which, one day you will face your Maker, whether you believe he exists or not, that choice my dear, is not yours! Do me a favor, take your prozac and all your meds and don't open your trap about Sarah. She is a authentic feminist, not a crazy twit, who shoot out the garbage...keep the stench to yourself...

Governor Palin just needs to remain herself, and stay true to her conservative values. She has been voted #2 most ADMMIRED women in America, that says a lot for her standing with the American public, especially with all the Palin bashers spreading hate and lies about her. It is good to see the public can see through that, and admire Governor Palin for what she stands for.

Sure, Sarah's a Motivator

Like the Grand Dragon at a Klan rally.

Don't underestimate the power of the "X-factor"

I'm a liberal, but unlike the many on my same team, I don't hate Palin. Politics aside, let's assess the similarities between her and Obama: both young, attractive, hold a presence on a stage, make a personal connection with their audience, hail from far-away states, embody the essence of their respective parties. Some might think these attributes are shallow, superficial and meaningless in a political spectrum. But hey, several of these are what gave Obama his extra edge. And look who's the president now. A public opinion of someone often goes beyond politics. Like her or not, from a purely political standpoint, Hillary and Obama were basically oranges and oranges. In all honesty, both were fairly centrist, poll-pandering democrats. Yet much like in the entertainment business, that "X factor" gave Obama the extra bump, as many hailed him to be the political "savior" of our generation.

Sarah Palin has that "X factor" going for her. All she needs to do now is refine her political edge, achieve more concrete reforms as governor. As long as she builds up few more solid political achievements on her resume, she could very well be a viable candidate.
