Why does Sarah Palin get so much attention when she in not considered a serious contender? (Ron Paul, border)

[pommysmommy]

I don't get it. If she poses no threat, why does she garner so much attention?

Because she's a conservative female.

Liberals know their goose is cooked the first time a female or black wins the Republican nomination.

ill copy and paste my response to this i had in the other thread

people ask why people on the left make fun of her.

i wouldnt consider myself a leftist. voted for kline(republican for house) and independent(horner) for governor.

i make fun of her because she is stupid. i enjoy demeaning her and making fun of her whenever i get the chance because she sets herself up for it.

if she was being targeted for no reason i wouldnt have a problem with her.

but this idiot knows what shes doing. and then cries foul when people call her out on it.

most people can see right through that, except the idealogues.

If she is such an idiot why does she get so much attention? Ron Paul can't get this much publicity.

Easy to attack, the media chews her up every chance they get. she just has to say she is doing something and they show up in droves. She is playing them and is fun to watch. and then wait for the new posts on CD, like hungry animals that got a morsel

For the same reason that this thread will probably get to 20 pages

because she says dumb things to get in the news.

and shes an easy target. shes so stupid she doesnt realize it though.

no wonder why her unfavorables are in the 50's.

imo she is borderline retarded.

and no i dont have anything against conservative females.

ive said 2 times now in the elections forum that i believe bachmann will win the republican nom.

i wont vote for her, but i can think objectively when it comes to these things instead of only one way.

1. Ron Paul doesn't appeal to dummies

2. Ron Paul doesn't look good in a dress and heels

3. Ron Paul has never been a VP candidate

one reason she has been able to stay in the public eye is because she is somewhat attractive. add to it quitting her job to make money. she knows how to work the publicity machine.
