Yeah, I think they're forgetting they can't swallow anymore of obama.

I hope she and Michele Bachmann link up for some pep rallies. It would be great material for Comedy Central to work with.

Palin Plays Hard to Get | Swampland



They're so, so confused!

Confusion on day 2 of Palin bus tour - Andy Barr - POLITICO.com



Maybe this is the point, idiot. She doesn't want the media following her, that is pretty clear.

I can just see the media, getting out their maps to check for national historically significant spots up and down the eastern seaboard, trying to pinpoint her next stop.
This is fun, but it's time for some straight talk.

At this point Palin is just another Lindsey Lohan. The media follows her (or tries to) for the same reason it follows any other celebutard- ratings.

Any chance Palin had of being a national leader, she blew over the past four years with one bad decision after another, and a stubborn refusal to learn anything from her mistakes.

I used to be afraid of Palin, when I thought she had a chance of geting elected to high office. Because I think having vindictive, willfully ignorant people with persecution complexes in positions of power is bad for our country. But that danger has passed.

I still think Palin will run for president. She can't help herself. She doesn't stand a prayer of getting the GOP nomination, but I hope she decides to run as an independant with the "Rogue Momma Grizzly Party", or some such nonsense. She'll peel 5-10% of the whacko vote away from Romney or Pawlenty, and turn an otherwise close election into a route for Obama.

But at this point, unless you're a big fan of Entertainment Tonight or something, I think we normal folk can safely ignore Palin.

See, that's the thing. The Left doesn't ignore her. They're on her consistently, constantly, in a never ending quest to beat her down.

Now, if they didn't see her as a threat, I doubt they'd be doing that.

She hasn't decided to run, nor is she campaigning.

She doesn't have the political campaigning apparatus/structure in the states.

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.

She went from the most humble of circumstances to rich, famous and powerful because she has always been two steps ahead.

She's mastered the art of clawing and social climbing
