Paul... your starting to sound as goofy as BS (Schlessinger)looks. By all indications your IQ must be dropping. Bags of hammers and boxes of rocks are going to be insulted if you continue this slide into village idiot mode.
My prediction... USNEWS will be cutting its staff to halt the bleeding of funds it appears to be wasting.

Is there an organization that prevents the slaughter /harvest of vegetables? A friend once told me that she heard a faint scream as she was slicing broccoli for a stir fry dish ...

Well, reading this ridiculous liberal diatribe was pointless.

Why do people want to see Palin in the White House? There is no substance to the woman. Our leaders should have some intellect---she has none. She certainly is not a good speaker. She often does not make sense. She talks about our founding fathers, compares herself to William Jennings Bryan and I honestly wonder if she does her research about these men. She told Bill O'Reilly that she was more qualified to be the president than President Obama. She cannot hold a candle to Pres. Obama. She will never match his intellect. She is a shallow woman with an oversize ego. I do hope that her popularity fades and that people will wake up to the fact that she is not qualified to be president of the United States.

I love Sarah. I think she's got an amazing record of reform and am impressed with her fearlessness to stand up to entities like "rich white guy" Republicans and big oil to return us to a more conservative party representative of the silent majority.
We all fell in love with Palin's persona. Perhaps the persona drowned out the serious candidate she could be.
So, yes we have 2010 to see what she does with her power. She can gain so much valuable experience campaigning for candidates, donate money from SarahPac and can continue to rake in a lot of cash for herself. In fact, I predict she tops Obama's 2008 mountain of campaign money.
If she chooses another path, fine. Frankly, earning 10M from one book while having the freedom and power of being a private citizen with a massive platform could do even more for us.

Some prognosticator. My prediction is that you will no longer see any Bush candidates, the first two probably ruining it for JEB. Sarah Palin has developed a near cult around her. She, if she wants to, will be a very serious Presidential candidate since she will be strong in the primaries where the most ardent supporters show up. The American public are tired already of Obama and leftist Chicago style government. This country is a center right country and the glow of a socialist wears off quickly.

You are right on spot!! This is just political wishcrap!! Ah, maybe Mr. Behard is smoking a cigarette made by the Democrats far left liberals. LOL!

Where's your crystal ball? How do you know Sarah Palin is going to fade? She's got this runaway bestseller and millions of followers on Twitter. I don't know what your smoking, but a force like that just does not fade away (especially when her record/image is distorted to make her such a convenient punching bag for leftists.)

As I was saying, while Palin the politican is a thing of the past, maybe, you and I just might talk of you and I know who as a celeb yes. Let's also not forget that "OPRAH" is ending in 2010-2011 and "TYRA" is ending this season, so don't be surprised if we see Palin as the next great daytime TV talk show star, and I mean talk show star. Now, those are my predictions, I hope.
